    I have to give you credit for helping me with my game. I only watch a select few people on you tube, you are one of them. I shot in the 80s the other day. I never shot below 100. EVER! Love your energy.

      Maaaaaannnnnn
      this is year 3 for me watching Mr. SG
      and last year doesn't really count
      but since I've seen this guy
      I broke 40 in 9 holes 🕳️
      I was always close but my average was 45
      Now my average is 41 and I except that number to drop a few more strokes nbs
      My Drive has improved 75% of fairways and 20 yards longer now I want to learn to turn the screw
      My short game is so much better within 60 yards I can get within 20ft with consistency
      My goal is to Break 80 this year folks are asking how often do I practice and who have I been taking lessons with
      I am right lipped but it's been all Mr SG
      Gonna get some alignment stick covers
      Thank you Mr SG

    Hey Matt, I tried this flop shot twice today, and it worked to perfection. Staying low is the key. I was three feet or so from the pin on both occasions. My playing partners were very impressed. Me too! Many thanks for all your help!

    @marks.Landing 4 года назад +11

    Wow you make it sound so very very simple and only a very small amount of key components to achieve, your explanation is very achievable, unlike most coaches and their stupid amounts of key points to hit in one movement, you are good at what you do, cheers Mark from down under

    Man this was so entertaining. I’m sincere saying that. As I sit here super stoned, I have learned many tips to try to improve my short game, I have laughed my ass off over and over again, and I’ve found my new favorite RUclipsr. Man you keep it real! A flop shot for “us”. I love it. You are very relatable and I’ll definitely be watching more of your stuff. Thanks for the video!

    What a difference a day makes 😄😄 took the 60 yard routine to the course for the first time today.
    Man alive, I shot 76 gross, 5 over for my course playing of a 14.! My buddies didn't know what was going on.
    I finally figured out what I have been doing wrong, and did it right. Thank you so much 😄😄🍺🍺

    Thought i had this shot already, but your mechanics are so much simpler, used it twice on course today in uk, up and down both times, such a simple shot to learn thanks to you Matt, keep up the good work

  • @Loganpdice
    @Loganpdice 4 месяца назад

    Earned my sub! Your analogies and demonstrations made it so easy to understand and visualize. Can’t wait to try this out. Only advice is maybe to think about adding time stamps to make it easy to skip through and rewatch. 3 years late but I’m definitely going to check out your other videos for tutorials.
    Quick question: How do you hit a flop from a much further distance? Let’s say 20-30 yards? Is it same swing but more power? Thanks!

    Matt, I’m a 3 hdcp and taking regular lessons on my full swing but my short game practice is limited with Covid restrictions at local courses. You’re videos have really helped me to refocus on scoring shots inside 100 yards. Thanks for the easy to understand techniques.

    @randycosgrove3608 4 года назад

    I've had trouble with short shots out of heavy rough ( lots of that on my course ) to short sided pins ( mostly where I miss it seems ) for years.
    Watched this video and then tried it out the next day on the practice green. Worked as advertised so I took it to the course that day and it helped me save a nice par on a long tough par 5.
    Thanks for showing us how to make this shot and for making the set up and mechanics simple and clear.
    Your site is one of 2 that I watch regularly. Mostly because you are clear in what you're showing and focus on the details that help me make better shots and scores without needless details that cloud the instruction.

    @johncarilloiii7828 4 года назад

    OMG, I've never had a new shot work to perfection the first time I tried it ... and the next 30 times! No skulls, fat shots, etc. I'm an upper 80's shooter too. The setup felt awkward as hell. Thought I'd skull the cover off the ball. WORKED GREAT!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I had no 10 - 15 yard shot over a bunker ... do now! Thanks!!!

  • @Britton0932
    @Britton0932 3 года назад

    Thank you! Trying to learn the Phil Phlop has taken so long and I get it right about 15% of the time. I stopped using it because it added more strokes than it’s worth. I suffered a chip and roll downhill. I’d rather put from the opposite fringe than be pitching a skied Phlop from 10yard off the opposite side. I’m going to add this to my game!!! Thank you

  • @homebizsupport
    @homebizsupport 3 года назад

    Matt, your videos are really useful and you are a lot of fun to watch and to listen to. Your energy and humour make it so much easier for me to learn and I thank you for your good work mate. I am down-under in Oz and in bloody lockdown yet again. Can't wait to get out and try the flop; shot and the forty yarder over water. Yes; I have liked. Yes: I have subscribed and raung the bell.

    Thanks, bud - that isn't my normal approach to either the flop or the sand shot but that looks like a great alternative to get my brain around. I can see where under varying conditions this could be added to my ATTEMPTS to get closer to the hole so I can 2 put! :):):)

I want to be a member there!

  • @GP-yc2it
    @GP-yc2it 4 года назад

    Holy crap!
    Open the face to 45 degrees, offset your stance 45 degrees to square the face to your line, swing along your line. Control distance with the backswing clock face technique. Easy peasy!

      Sand wedge, open it up a bit, for me backswing goes waist high and do almost a full follow through so I commit to the shot.
