I'M NOT kidding. Matt has helped me break 100. He helped me break 90. He helped me break 85 (although it has only been a couple of times😁). The strategies here are GOLDEN. Consistently shooting 85-89. Love his videos, and Matt deserves more recognition. I am starting to plug Golf Sidekick in other comment sections 👍
Wadda playa
Playas recognize playas
He got me to break 80, now I expect to break 85 every time out
@@ynkybomber Be careful padawan. Expectations are the ego bruiser. Expect nothing, gain eveyrthing
@@GolfSidekick I was a 95+ golfer for over 20 years. I am never going back playa
I love the Scotland series, but Matt in his natural habitat feels like coming home.
I never tell other playas what clubs I’m using because it’s confident, they shouldn’t know!
Very confidential. 😂👍🏻😎🤘🏻
I really enjoy Matt's content, but his use of confidentiality instead of confident does bring a smile to my face. We can all learn a lot from Matt's tee to green strategy.
Baus, I can't even fathom playing golf the way I used to before working backwards from the hole and breaking down distances. It makes this game so much more fun and enjoyable.
WOW the weather in Scotland is amazing 😁
😂🤣 that's the continental shifts and sulfer extractions by zha baus meister. 🤣😎🤘🏻
I used to think "stress free golf" was me hitting 2 iron or 3 wood rather than driver on tight driving holes. It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that those clubs were still long enough to bring OB into play on some of those holes and short enough to bring trouble into play on others on my home course. There's one easy par 4 that I would pull hook OB at least once every five rounds even with 2 iron. Now I play 6 iron and even with a horrendously duck hooked shot I end up in the fairway just short of a FW bunker with, at most, a 7 iron into the green. Scoring average on that hole has plummeted for me. The other change I made was to stop laying back on the par 5s because the widest part of the fairway is where my driver lands.
Sir. You are officially a playa extraordinaire
Very smart of you to use the club that works best on each hole.
Having the discipline to stick with the plan can be the hardest part of the game.
Este é o único canal de golf que vale à pena assistir. Matt não perde nosso tempo com dicas de swing, etc que nunca funcionam. Ele ensina ESTRATÉGIA de jogo, com alta competência e bom humor. Parabéns Matt. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil
This is some high quality content as always! I think you should consider creating a channel on RUclips so people can learn the way of the Playa
By far The BEST golf guru out there! Matt, your tips are great. Keep the game simple, avoid the risk, and enjoy the game! Keep up the good work boet!
Im on hole 17. Got two four man scrambles in front of me as I’m watching this video with two par 4s left playa. Currently 22 degrees in Chicago but the way of the playa has me pushing through the elements
Love coming your way from a golf course in southern Minnesota!
Classic Chicago golf, somehow backed up in sub zero temps during late November 😂
Par/bogey finish on the last two holes. Missed a 4 footer on 18 for the parski.
Love your videos. I'm a high handicapper and your mental game and course management advice has helped tremendously. I plan on trying that course you're playing next week. Cheers and keep the great videos coming 🏌️
Thank you for your uploads :)
Over the last 2 months I have played 5 rounds and for each round, been deliberately only teeing off with 6 and 7 irons on par 4s and 5s, I have also been drilling into my head the concept of 'get the tee shot in play, let's make sure we have a 2nd shot to hit with that same ball instead of taking a drop and hitting a 3rd'. Thanks to watching your videos and putting into practice 'working backwards from the green to the tee, I have been scoring between 15 and 20 over par for each of my last 5 rounds, it's made a huge difference compared to between 22 and 28 over par that I was scoring before.
I am a long hitter and sometimes my playing partners comment on why I don't use any club above a 6 iron. I answer their comments at the end of the round by getting them to look at my scorecard (best result is birdie and worst is a double, but it is usually pars and bogeys galore for at least 15 holes). Makes such a huge difference when I am now consistently hitting stress-free shots and giving myself chances to putt for birdies, golf becomes so much more enjoyable, thanks again Matt
The scorecard is the only thing that counts.
Every penalty is a killer, the stress they produce can ruin most players.
Your playing partners notice the lack of doubles, that you're in the fairway AGAIN, they'll put pressure on themselves that creates errors on their games.
Stress free is so much more fun.
I've been having trouble with a short par 4, last round I hit to the front of the fringe, avoided the water and sand that surround 75-80% of that green, chipped close, 1 putt par.
Elated to break the double, triple bogey streak I had been on for that hole. That par also closed out the match.
Win win.
Good to see you back home. Caddies back on the bag. Weather is warm. Girls are hot. Life is good…🏌🏿♂️⛳️😎🇺🇸👍🐊
Preaching the gospel in this video. Another way to think about it is to watch kids who play golf. I caddy for my son (7) and have rediscovered my love of proper course management. He does not have the strength to play for the greens from the rough, sand, or trouble so being accurate with his shots is hugely important. Even one foot into the rough means trouble. Playing multiple lay ups properly is a skill! If you (or your kids) can successfully execute a tee shot, a layup, a full wedge, and two putts on a par 5 you will know how good it feels! Learn to hit the basic shots before moving on to anything else.
Matty's club twirl at 02:48 was next level.
Excellent golfing advice old boy, thank you.
I actually have so much fun golfing now! The last 2 rounds 100% of my shots were in the fairway. Every time one of my golfing buddies breaks out his 3 wood or 4 hybrid for that 225yd second shot on the par-5 I just sit in the golf cart and chuckle. To me 225 is a 125yd 8I and a GW sitting within 20' of the pin for the birdie try. Went from a 23Hcp to a 13Hcp from the White T's.......Thank you!!

Comfortable the best RUclips Golf Channel. You make me as a South African very proud to have you out there. Heres to 500k plus subscribers
03:28 honestly i absolutely love bunker shots ❤
I especially love a plugged lie... Incredible fun splashing a huge amount of sand and getting it close or holing it.
golf is like a throw-back to youth playing an obstacle course and bunkers are just part of the fun imho.
The harder, the more unique obstacles the better and more fun!
I forget which video it was from Matt - but he talked about confidentiality and mentalentalality (that's mine, sorry, couldn't resist). Immediately subscribed, and golf in my mind is 50/50 - Skill and Mental, as we are crazy to think we can, put ourselves through hell, and we can't. Matt is basically saying to calm down and just be you.....
You make golf seem like it’s so easy. Maybe I’m playing too much ego golf. I just started golfing 9 months ago and averaging 93 scores according to 18 birdies. I’m gonna try your strategic approach to golf tomorrow and hopefully I can beat my personal best of 88. My goal is to score 79 before my one year anniversary of beginning golf in late August of 2023. My putting stroke needs to most help. Any tips on putting strokes and how to get aligned so I can stop 3 putting on 10 out of 18 holes per round?
Through the years of listening to the simple Waddaplaya golf advice from Matt I have broken 80 consistantly and have even shot a -1 on 18 and a -5 on 9. He has made golf fun again. Follow his advice, go back and watch his earlier videos as well, like when he was learning to play left handed to show how his method works for beginners as well.
Playa in Chief, Matty boom boom, I gotta say this content is up there amongst my favorites that you have created. 🎉
I took your advice and took out my driver and 3/5 woods out of my bag and shot 74. My usual playing partner didn’t even notice till 6 holes in and I was -1. Confidence in hitting crisp irons after that round then led to me winning my monthly medal yesterday. Baus coach of the year. Move over butch Sundance, Alex foley , Hank Stanley you should be tigers next swing coach
Awesomeness!
I have been following the way of the playa for a couple of months now. It definitely works! Thank you Matt. This is the way.
At 15:46.
Yes indeed Matty the Midwits are our enemy on the golf course as in so so many areas of life. 😉
So true
Great tips and video. That must be your home course there in Thailand. The one caddy is in a lot of your videos. Keep the awesome content coming--thanks!
I almost didn't recognize you with a different hat, not the usual bucket hat!😀
Well done playa. Observational
More confidential with every video😎Thanks Matt.
Welcome to Confidentialism
Here's for the algorithm, mentality game is really helpful for n00bs just starting like myself. I'm starting to find my "comfort" shot so hopefully it translates to fun on the courses!
after watching literally one video and keeping some of your tips in mind i broke 100 by almost 10 for the first time. only been playing a few months
The first tee shot in the clip and you took a "divot big enough to build a course on" as Jyakk Nichhcholson would say
Thank you, these videos are great
Key phrase that is the underlying goal on every single shot: eliminate as much distance between you and the hole as is SAFELY possible. This hole is an easy decision: the second fairway is tiny and surrounded by horrible hazards and bunkers. The end of the first fairway is wide open and very easy to hit. Very simple decision: put it as far down there as you can on the first fairway. What “safely” means is the key decision point.
Best advice ever, the “easiest” hole at my course is a par 4 that’s 270m. IMO it’s one of the hardest as it’s up a large steep hill with bunkers all round it and about 50m short of the green. I actually hit a 5 iron from the tee usually to leave me a decent distance into the green
Only the few really know the way
Same here, where do you play?
@@huddwah sun city
Really appreciate your strategy for gameplay, gives me a different mindset of how to play. I will be playing like this on the weekend . What course is this?
On every holes, that's exactly my strategy, but you don't miss a shot. Bravo
He's got the best sense of humour, even the advertisement is good banter 👏
The hardest thing to do in golf is being disciplined enough to play the correct shots for ur game.
I know for me to shoot my best score i have to play as if i am playing in a tournament. Smart course management goes a long way. Even when i was playing my best i rarely played at the pin.
I think you choose to fade your 3 wood into the water just to make your point, but it is a point worth making so thank you!
No sir. That’s the majority of playas and I wanted to hit near the green. When it comes to golf I don’t need to manipulate ideas. I know mine work better than anyone else for handicap golfers. So there is no need to exaggerate
In a lot of his videos you’ll see the Playa In Chief try a shot he’s not so confidential in and sometimes he booms it right near the hole and sometimes he duffs it in the hazard, so I really do believe it’s authentic
@@matthewalbrecht582, I'm Ok with the Good Fella being authentic.
Go Bills
Self-confidential is my credo.
Thanks Matt! Since discovering the playa way, I have been using this… yes you get stick for taking out a 5/6/7i on the p4/5, but on shot 2/3 from the fairway, those same driver okes are still searching for their bombs…
Btw…What happened to last nights new course video?
You are the Golf Guru.
Some good tips to help my confidentiality, but my usual problem is getting a good clean strike on the ball every time. Any tips on that Matt the baus playa?
Yes sir
Pro will sort you out in 7 minutes
“Balls are almost touching. “😂😂😂
I am leading you away from temptation". Inspiring words.
I'm confidential this was a great vid. Where is the humor in the comments? 😂🤣🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Thank you. Another great video.
Nice video, mate. Legit and solid advice! Probably best to distance yourself from those knives, however, they are less legit and solid!
Which set of the Kamikoto did you get?
Matty Boom Boom, you da man.
Smooth brain smooth sailing thanks playa
Rumor has it that some big names in golf are squashing their beef…with Kamikoto.
I don’t squash. I slice through it
“Most people can’t even fathom hitting a seven iron from the tee. I can, because I love it.” 🤣
I don't know how Matt hasn't managed to do a collab with Good Good or Grant Horvat or Sheils after all this time. Would love to see him on Bob Does Sports
Does he care to
I always come for the playa, stay for the Way, and come back because there’s always just enough weirdness. Like your caddy displaying your knives for you. Lol.
Wadda weirdo. Lol i love those caddies at kirmimaya
I'm gonna get me some birdskies and some spicy Thai noodles this weekend.
Playa back in his natural environment thawing his golf balls out. 👍🏼
The baus back in the haus
Classic Baus right here..
Kamikoto, carried by caddies to always ensure they get tip.
No knifing no tip
Great common senses !
It looks like the weather has warmed up in Scotland....
Howzit Matt ... I'm new to your channel and loving it ... ! ... out of interest .. ex Saffa or Rhodie .... ? .... cheers ..... John .....
Great tips Matt, good to be home??
Yas. Good perspective. Europe and uk was a dream but good to see all aspects to appreciate thailand fully
Splitting fairways and lobsters like butter.
Scotland's looking warmer.
Good luck in your retirement, playa in chief.
I subscribe to the way of the Playa but Matty neglected the 5W or 3H opposed to using a 6i off the tee.
If my driver is being a cretin (nothing to do with my swing) I'm using my 3H.
good work
i'm in the "any putt for par is a good putt to have" camp.
Scotland has got a lot brighter 😲
I’m feeling very confidential…
What are you using for the bird's view.. what's the app??
Google Earth boi friend
@@GolfSidekick thanks Baus frend..you da best!
v Confidential playing here matty
what happened to the Playa's in chief bucket?
Incognito mode with the cap?
Counting backwards from the hole is not a bad idea.
What ah Playa!!!
Matt, who is this guy in the video and why isn’t he wearing a bucket hat?
Matt, As a high handicapper, I physically on a regular basis can’t hit as far as you can. Therefore on this strategy I can’t relate or execute your strategy. My driver averages 140 to 155 and then my other clubs are less yardage from there. I hit more woods to get distance than irons like you do. On many par 4s I can’t reach the green in 2. I try to get there in 3 and more times than not I would get a 6 than a 5. Maybe you can do a video like this with strategy for a high handicapper that just doesn’t have the distance like you?
Just play from the forward tees and apply these ideas where you can
I'm required to play on the green tees in the men's league I joined a/k/a senior tees (I'm a senior) and I do hit further than my wife when I play with her and she plays the forward tees (ladies tees). So I am already playing as forward as I can.
You should join her on her tees.
Thanks for responding but it's not happening. I guess I'll need a lesson on hitting harder from a teacher.
@@mister.wizard that would be best
What's the app you're using to plan your shots (on the insets)?
Google earth
Who doesn't find themselves saying, FADER...OR DRAWSKI, when hitting balls...
No joke, when I stopped trying to SMASH my driver and got a more regular tempo down, I started hitting fairways almost every time with the driver. But now I go to lay up with my irons and I chunk them EVERY time :/ not sure what happened

I am confident in your abilities Matt, but confidentially struggle with trusting my line when putting. Your videos have made me more confident in my club selection taking into consideration the lie. But confidentially and confident are 2 words with different meanings, I wanted to tell you being confident you’ll not be offended. Your fan and friend.
are you 100% curtain?
if common sense and keeping it real were days jobs that paid well, this dude would be the first trillionaire
If you want more "Confidentiality" maybe try camo gear on course Matt 😉
I can say, confidentially, that I am no rocket surgeon.
First, you say you are trying to keep us from temptation. Then, in nearly the next breath, you say our balls are almost touching. I'm so confused! 😂
Thanks a lot, playa. Now I'm starving for some meat.
I wish i could share that sentiment but i just had two steaks
I thought a 48° was a pitching wedge? Or are we all having 2 gap wedges now?
do whatever you like. are you bound by what another man does?
Where’s your play from st Andy! 😢
He mentioned that'll be out sunday. He also warned it'll be gut wrenching
The word is confident
Impatiently waiting for the ghost of Old Tom Morris to show himself...
Why are you wearing short pants in Scotland in november? Bring ur big-boi-pantaloons and drive the green. KittyKat!
Me yow
This word...confidential...I don't think it means what you think it means 🤣Love the vids and methodology though.
watt does it mean playa?
He knows
Wait. What happened to St. Andrew's?
Sunday it will be on the channel

@GolfSidekick hey bru?!? I meant St Andrew's old course. Did you not play?
