Thanks Randy, low 90s is a painful place to be at times 😂 one moment you are on for low 80s next you high 90s 😆. Yep the tips certainly helped me so hope they are of use to others. Best of luck in your golf 👍
No problem 👍 yep its more playing to your ability and realising golf is more about how good your bad shots are opposed to how good your best are 😂 1 amazing shot doesn’t make up for 18 terrible ones, but 18 damage controlled shots can probably make up 9 shots if not more lol good luck on your next outing
Thank you very much for posting this this is a big big help I'm stuck in the mid-90s this video is super helpful I can't wait to try your philosophy and techniques
Not a bad place to be stuck in - best thing about our kind of level is you can take 5-10 strokes off your score with just smarter play, worst thing about our level is we can add 5-10 quite easily too 😂 let me know how you go (letting go of scoring and just playing accepting bad shots were probably the biggest mindset changes that helped me)
This is such good advice. I've been playing like this for a while and have broken 90 a few times. I think there's merit in this mindset, all the way up to single figures. I think it's important to really get you're head around net bogey being ok. It's obviously what we're trying to avoid but it's not the end of the world.
Thanks Rob - yep certainly is. Most people play/practice once a week then expect to go round better each week 😂 pros and top players still get bogeys playing it for years and most likely daily. All the best for you getting below 90 more frequently 👍
Great video. I’ve playing golf for a year(took a few months off so only 10 months total) and I’ve been able to break 100 consistently. Depending on the course I can shoot low to mid 90s. Can’t wait to be shooting mid 80s! Thanks for the video!
That’s what I did for a long time definitely works very well for breaking 90. Definitely worth practicing on the big dog in the meantime as it certainly is beneficial to hit further and leave a nice approach in (but not at the cost of OB etc 😂). But sounds like you have a great set up based off ‘your’ game - which where so many people fail 😂 best of luck on your golf 👍
Great video,hate when pro's tell us how to break 90, someone like yourself I would listen to and I have subscribed. I struggled with my 5 iron(59yrs old), daisy cutting etc.., so I bought a ping 425 9 wood(€300), expensive but a great club, now when I have a 165 to 170 shot, I get it up there, not always on the green but near enough. I can't use hybrids, I find woods much easier to use. And your right about the score,only count up after you finish, get a good playing partner that wants you to succeed and not one that wants you to explode.
Thanks Dermont - from what I’ve heard it’s very case by case basis on pros and lessons. For people that want to play more casually/less often think all these tips are pretty beneficial. Finding people to play with where you have a good time regardless is what’s it’s about. All the best in your future rounds and keep at with the 9 wood 👍
Nice video! I was watching it thinking for some reason you were in the UK, but it looked like just like NZ. Then you said it was NZ! Which course were you on?
23:30 On par 3 why not hit short of bunkers and chip on. Especially if cannot get out of sand first time. This is a better strategy for a bogey golfer.
Certainly an option for sure - with that par 3 in particular the 2 bunkers are front of green and you hit down a little valley whilst going short would be safe of bunkers you can end up with a pretty bad lie angle or chip uphill to green - whereas long of green is very flat and safe (but I wasn’t really able to explain everything on the hole 😂) then the wind just caught it up too much. I think if you are looking to break 90 you have a couple more options on a par 3 - breaking 100 hitting short is a go to if you have doubts. Great point though 👍
New video of how I went from 34 to 17 Handicap out on channel, go check it out to improve 👍
Great summary of way of the playa.
That is exactly what I thought.
What a fun video. I'm where you are at low 90's. Good stuff and great tips and commentary. Well done!
Thanks Randy, low 90s is a painful place to be at times 😂 one moment you are on for low 80s next you high 90s 😆. Yep the tips certainly helped me so hope they are of use to others. Best of luck in your golf 👍
Great stuff sir! You should collab with Golf sidekick, the legend.
Thanks 🙏 - haha probably a few thousand subs away from making that a possibility 😂. Great guy 👍
Solid tips, thanks for putting this together! I'm learning that good scoring golf isn't always the flashiest/best looking golf

@JackPlaysGolf will do, thanks!!
Very nice video. Thanks! Great stuff.
No problem - hope there are some useful tips in there for you 👍

Thats a very solid start - I’m sure you will be able to hit those mid 80s not too far down the line 👍 thanks for watching
Great video. Thanks for the tips, have broken 100 a couple of times. Just struggle with my irons. Good work 💪
Thanks Tom - just keep at it and if will gradually happen 👍 once you get that confidence with the irons you will be flying 👍
Hey mate well done.. Ive started using irons only as i hit my irons very well and only pulling at the big dog on par 5s
That’s what I did for a long time definitely works very well for breaking 90.

Good advice
Yep sometimes the simplest things that trip us all up 😆
Great video. Trying to play from the forward tees myself until I can break 90 consistently.
Thanks Rob - how’s it going for you? Ive been trying to get my driver working for the last few weeks (not much success 😂)
course looks lovely where was it filmed?
Yep it’s been in great condition the last year since I joined. It’s Wellsford, just north of Auckland (New Zealand)
accept forget move on - sounds like my last relationship lol. love your videos!
😂 such sound advice for life and golf. Hope some of the tips help for golf 👍
Great video man. Can you make one for breaking 70 now?
😂 easy what you do is don’t count every 2nd shot and hope you scrape through

Hi Nick, this was at Wellsford actually a pretty tidy little course - recommend checking it out if you are based in NZ 👍
@@JackPlaysGolf Ah, the one with the giant golf ball!
Very confidential 😂
Totally confidential. Just like Jack Nicholson

Nothing new here. There should be a limit on "break 90" videos. Sorry, mate.
😂 thanks for the contribution Kev
