IMMEDIATELY I love this channel ‼️‼️‼️ realistic golf, realistic expectations, realistic thoughts and emotions, kept the bad shot in with the good shots!!!! SUBSCRIBED FOR SURE!!!!!
John and his Fat Guy Golf channel is the most undervalued golf series on RUclips. His struggle with the game and determination to master it is so damn relatable, at least to me. I can’t relate to the hordes near PGA Pro quality channels on RUclips; they are so damn good at the game; there is no struggle, challenge, lost balls, penalty strokes, or drama. If I want to watch Golf Pros, I’ll watch a tournament. I cannot understand why golf club/ball and accessories manufacturers are not showering John with products to test. He is your average joe golfer, like the rest of us millions of weekend duffers. If he were to test drive the latest Hybrid Iron set, the results would mean something. It’s pointless to have a golfer of, say, Rick Shiels quality test clubs designed to help us 90…dare I say 100+ stroke smucks on a Sunday outing. Anyway, Thanks for the great videos, John!
Man, so glad you are back vlogging. As a fellow big man your channel has gotten me through depression at times and through the pandemic. Keep grinding John. Would love to see you here in Virginia.
I've enjoyed all your videos but I think this one may be your best golf yet! My only complaint ... we need to see more videos, more often from the BIG MAN! Aloha!
Big John swinging well here 👏🏻👏🏻. Those early tee shots looked great. Check your grip big guy. Make sure you are gripping the club properly with your hands in a relatively neutral position. Your tendency is left off the tee & left with pitch/chips which could be the result of the back of your left hand being turned over to the right at address vs facing at the target. Always remember that wherever the back of the left hand faces will match the direction of the clubface 👍⛳️
Your putting saved your ass. Still overall a decent round. I really enjoy your videos brother. Looking forward to the second half of this one and more too come...I hope. I see you are a weight lifter. I'm 66 and have been lifting my entire adult life. Still going at it 3 to 4 times a week. I can't imagine my life without lifting - I'm an addict and love it. I do some cardio too mainly stair master, but it's really the weight lifting that has helped me stay in shape. If I had to pick one it would be lifting over cardio and I am a huge believer in weight lifting versus cardio to lose weight....so IMO you are on the right track. Some cardio does not hurt though and good to work a little into your routine. Keep it up man !!!
Hey John! Been watching you for awhile now!! You are STRIPING the ball and increasing power and confidence in your swing! I also live in the NEOH area and would love to play a round with you!
John, I just stumbled across your channel and I really enjoyed this video! Good stuff! I just subscribed and look forward to watching more. As a fellow big guy, let me say great job on the improved health, fitness and golf. You have a nice swing and I can tell you're an athletic guy -- and the commentary kept me chuckling. :) Keep up the great work!

Always enjoy watcing your videos. When I went north of 280 lbs, I found it a challenge to keep my lower body ahead of my arms on the downswing, since there's alot of weight in my lower body. You said a few times "I didn't finish my swing". Perhaps it's more arms out-racing the lower-body on the downswing 6:23 compared to the nice tempo at 4:00. But you're determined. Your swing is similar to PGA player Brendon de Jonge - who has a controlled over-the-top downswing. Keep up the good golf !
The swing is looking good John. I'm also a fat guy trying to lose weight and play better golf. Was 415 down to 380 in 1 month. Also just started to get a handicap I'm a 10.9 handicap. Lots of good golf up here in Michigan, if you ever make your way here hit me up.

I notice you leave yourself with those 50 foot putts consistently. The main reason is that you use a wedge with a full swing from around the greens. No distance control with such a wristy routine. Make an 8 iron your go to club. Use the bump and run technique. Take the wrists out of the swing and use more of a putting stroke. Steve Stricker is a prime example of this. Get your ball onto the green and rolling toward the hole. This bump and run will give you the control you want and drop your scores dramatically.
Yooo! I love me some Fat Guy Golf. You freaking smoked that 2nd hybrid shot. I don't care that it didn't hit the green, that was awesome. Also, that green is RIDICULOUSLY fast. Wow. My suggestion for you might be to get a new putter with another 2-3 inches of length. I think yours is too short now that you lost a lot of the weight. You need to relax and take your arms out of that putting stroke.

Love early morning golf alone…. Your shot tracer, what app do you use. Do you have to go back in and manually edit the tracer on each shot or does it do it for you on the course in real time and save.
Manually edit - it’s a nightmare - that’s why it’s takes 6-8 hours to make just one video and they get fewer and fewer. Hard to keep up with wife, gym, work.
Bakes First year golfing Best was a 92 and 93 Mostly 100+ Just typical crap- inconsistent, irons straight right, swinging to hard, blah blah Sub 90 is goal. Love watching your channel buddy

Hey! This is number 4. And it’s for fun man… I don’t make any money doing this haha.. it’s just a hobby of mine. I’m not Rick Shiels or whoever he is haha
Yeah no idea where you’re getting a 7 or think I EVER cheat my scores lol. Think I’m cheating to be in the 90s? Drive - approach - chip across the green - putt long and left - putt - tap in - that’s a 6 pal
You know it's going to be a good day when John posts a video, let's go!

I can see an improvement in your game . Keep going big guy.
Agreed

Pretty sure I've seen all your videos and this is the best you've played in my mind. Good job.
Welcome back big guy missed you👍👍
Dude, your channel is great and I’m playing here today so this video was awesome. Thanks brotha!!
Man, so glad you are back vlogging. As a fellow big man your channel has gotten me through depression at times and through the pandemic. Keep grinding John. Would love to see you here in Virginia.
Kudos John ! Hoping you’ll make some more videos soon. You’ve inspired me to do the same now that the snow is gone here in New Hampshire.
Where have you been all this time. I just discovered this channel and love it. Thank you for doing this. Just Subbed
Glad to see ya back on youtube!
Nice to see some videos again- keep up the good work!
I've enjoyed all your videos but I think this one may be your best golf yet!
My only complaint ... we need to see more videos, more often from the BIG MAN!
Aloha!
You go, John. It's great to see your posts, again.
Entertaining as always. Hoping to see more content in the future. 🙂
Am I the only one that likes John’s videos before even watching them?

Nice 9. Well done with the cinematography, actually making Briarwood look halfway decent!
Hahah… they’ve done a decent job on the course the last 2 years. iPhone 13 helps too

Looking great and the game is very improved
Hole 4 and 5. Par - Par with smart ball placement. Well on your way to the 80’s.
I wanted to go for that green so bad… lol
Love your channel! Do more videos, please!
Game is looking good!
You are hitting your driver really well!! Love the videos!

This is so funny, this is how I play golf! Not great, not bad. Some good shots. Trying to figure out how to play fat boy golf

Good shooting, John. Breaking 85 is this year i can feel it your putting was the best I've ever seen it.
Great content ya playing well buddy
great round man!

Looking good bro! Love to see some workout vids if you’re still crushing it!
I am John Baker’s number one fan so it’s party time
Didn’t like that you left so many putts short but, awesome awesome content! I loved this video
Def a lot of improvement
Weight loss looks good. Keep it going big guy!,

Can’t have a longer putter… belly is all up in the way haha
@@FatGuyGolf It's not in the way, it's Anchoring. 😁
Why you stopped with videos 😮
Miss your golf.
I live local if you want to go out!
What golf ball are you using? THAT is high visibility! Keep it up and always remember, golf always wins but so do you if you have fun!!
Yellow Callaway Warbirds - live em. Can never see the white balls
Just found your channel and subscribed. I’ll binge watch a few of your videos tonight
YESSIR
50-60 yards you should try hitting your wedges a little lower to control them more... hopefully start giving yourself some makeable birdie looks!!!
I try… they just keep going higher and higher 😆
I remember back in fat guy golf 5 when 205 was a crushed drive, now it's an easy swing. Driver is so much straighter too
Yeah … it’s a big difference … thanks for noticing
Whoooohooooo!!

What happened to the videos? Really enjoyed them!
big man breaking 100 for sure! any chance for a ball marker?
100??? Maybe we’re breaking 90 in part 2 buddy!!! Dm me on instagram and say ball marker first so I can sort thru messages I’ll get ya one
Stay warm Johnny
I’d take it!!!
44 not bad dude looks like the game is improving
Slowly but surely
Every time I lose weight I have redo the whole swing LOL
@@FatGuyGolf yeah having to change the mechanics and the clubs for distance has gotta be tough
Where is the back 9?
Been waiting forever!
Hey, Jon. Do you have a WITB vid? I'd like to see.
Idk why but that chip shot at 1:19 Made me laugh 😂 sorry
That’s fair haha

Shot tracer iPhone app
Alright let’s break 90 this round!
Stay tuned
I’m new to central oh, have any course suggestions; the closer to Dayton the better?
Not for Dayton area sorry buddy. I’m north east Ohio
Finally
We need new episodes!!!
Why haven’t you posted 6 months? What happened?
I'm a fellow big dude in the Akron/Cleveland area! we should play a round some time!
Who wants to see John play with Matt from Golf Sidekick ⛳
No idea who that is
@@FatGuyGolf look him up brother. We love you and your content
@@FatGuyGolf I'd love to get a round with you also if you would be so interested
How far are u from lex ky. I’d drive up to have a golf day with ya
Dope angle at 9:39
Get posting again !
Where you been bro?
I’m here
@@FatGuyGolf content please sir
What happened to John?
Never got the back 9! 😭
It’s here
Bakes
First year golfing
Best was a 92 and 93
Mostly 100+
Just typical crap- inconsistent, irons straight right, swinging to hard, blah blah
Sub 90 is goal.
Love watching your channel buddy
Thanks man! 92-93 are great for first year golfing! Consistency is the toughest thing. You go to the range at all? Video tape your swing?
@@FatGuyGolf yea not as much as I’d wish
4 kids will do that to ya lol
I got some lessons coming up. Hoping to be better for next season.
Dog, I want a ball marker. Can I get one?
Message me on instagram

Dude you should’ve collaborated with Broadie smith. Dude has 2.2 mill followers now you would’ve been set
Tried couldn’t get on Firestone and make it work
WHERE IS BACKNINE!!??
I gotta get on it
Sorry works been nuts
So like 3 a year now?
Hey! This is number 4. And it’s for fun man… I don’t make any money doing this haha.. it’s just a hobby of mine. I’m not Rick Shiels or whoever he is haha
@@FatGuyGolf just bustin…. Love your videos but you can’t tease us with nothing for a year……
Much more consistent John. You are just a little too wristy on the chips. Just swing at them like a long lag putt.
Sooo wristy!!! That nice one on 2 was closer to the ball in my stance - no wrist movement - good tempo - I think I just lose focus too much
i think if you have the money you should buy some new clubs
Why do u always have to cheat your scores? You made a seven on 1
I think he found the ball on the first hole.
Yeah no idea where you’re getting a 7 or think I EVER cheat my scores lol. Think I’m cheating to be in the 90s? Drive - approach - chip across the green - putt long and left - putt - tap in - that’s a 6 pal
Why am I watching this dude play bogey golf?
I have no idea man. 3 million views and 279,000 minutes of watch time later and I still don’t get it… haha
boring golf is scoring golf
Golf is clearly not a sport.
