This is your best video, yet, Matt! Thanks for the positive, concise short game overview. Positive thoughts are CRUCIAL to hitting better golf shots. Looking forward to putting these ideas into practice on the course this week!
I'm finding that Rick Shiels has helped me to get through the mid 20s HCP but Peter Finch and Particularly Matt Fryer are helping me to get into the teens! Thank you Matt for your amazing tips. You're making a difference!
Between the three of ya...Rick, Pete, and yourself, you’ve got loads of things to focus on and learn from! I mean just brilliant instructions from all of ya and really fun videos to watch when your together messing around on a course! I absolutely love all your vids and I think you do a fantastic job! Thank you for all of the help. Really need to start focusing on each shot at hand. I get complacent throughout the round and take shots for granted. My most annoying moments are when I’ve hit a fantastic drive and left myself with just a short wedge shot on to the green and I totally “duff” as you would say. I feel I don’t just take a moment longer to focus on the little things and commit to a solid shot. Literally just happened this past weekend lol. For anyone reading I can attest to this...just take a moment and really focus on what your wanting to do with every shot and don’t take any of them for granted. It’s the easiest shots that I can really make a mess of when I’ve set myself up well for a great second shot and just totally blow it. This video is great and something I need to remember to think back on when I’m out. Thanks again for all the great vids!!!
Matt, best short game lesson EVER. Like most mid level 18-20 handicapers I struggle with this. Well no more. Today in Phoenix Az 112 degrees so I had the course to myself. Used your technique and WOW I got it 98 % of the time. Had the course to myself so I practiced several different lies. If I hit a bad one I quickly realized sternum forward to get weight forward. Shot 12 over today. No bump and runs! Thanks for your excellent instructions.
Easily 1 off the best instructors on RUclips have used a few things from ur recent videos and have helped me massively especially my short game 👍🏻 keep them coming mate much appreciated
Outstanding Matt! Excellent instruction. Totally makes good golf play sense. Thank you! I started playing again in November after a 30 year absence. My avg score was 113 And now I am a consistent 102 - 105. Your instructions are working.Thank you!
Tatally grateful and appreciate your online tuition.. Old buy here, trying to find my way back after 4 years pause.. you actually illustrate amazingly and simplify. I realize lots of previous tuition just complicate.. Cheers from Denmark
Cheers Matt.....Stockton heath lad here but stranded in Tokyo! Some great courses over here and your tips are certainly helping add to the enjoyment! Thanks and keep em’ coming!
Totally grateful and appreciate your simplified and clear take on tuition. I try to find my way back after 4 years good pause, and realize lots of previous tuition (here me in Spain) was mores business protection, than getting players out on their own feet. BIG CHEERS, from and older buy in Denmark, you are 👍
Cracking video Matt. I think the tips are applicable to all levels of golfer. I think tip number 1 is especially relevant even to a low handicap golfer. I have been playing this wonderfully frustrating game for 30 years and have maintained a low handicap throughout. Even now off a +1, I still need to realise I am not a touring pro and don't have the time to practice as much as I would like. That first tip is something I can apply a lot and is useful to me as I do face that shot quite often. It may be on a par 4 where I have put myself out of play through a poor tee shot but more often it is on a longer par 5 where I can't quite reach in 2. That tip will result in me making way more birdies than bogeys and I should never ever make worse than a par.
Hi Matt, i follow all of the golfing you tube Lancashire Mafia, aka yourself, shiels, finch and carter, brilliant content from all, but your tutorials are for me the most concise and helpful to improve my game. I salute you sir, keep them coming
Matt been a subscriber for a while and your content just keeps getting better! Definitely one of the better coaches on RUclips and someone who doesn’t do the gimmicks to get the views! Up there with Danny Maude! Keep up the good work and thanks for all the help 👍
I'm new to your channel Matt, loving the tips/content. I'm an 18 handicapper and most of my shots lost are on my short game... the chip shot with the bunker in front of you is one shot I always fear.... always duff it, hopefully this will help! Thanks 👍
Matt, this is an incredibly in-depth and helpful video. Off the tee I am probably the worst I have been since I started playing again, but your previously wedge video helped so much that my scores have tumbled, this will hopefully improve me further
Matt great lesson when hitting from the fairway , my problem is im only in the fairway 30% of the time. What about when your in the rough or outside of the fairway?
Hi Matt,great info,after your last tip to help with my pull shots i tried it out on course and it worked a treat,i even hit a few shots with my feet together,great result,,many thanks Les
Love the tip of visualizing rolling the ball with your hand to understand the pace! Can't believe I've been golfing for as long as I have without hearing that one! Thanks Matt.
Just used one of the techniques here more upright, toe into the ground. Chipped two in from off the green🙌 that’s one way to solve my putting issues. Took 10 shots of the last round 👏👏Thanks Rick
Love #4. Anything under 50 yds is all lob wedge (unless I’m in a bunker). I’m so comfortable with my lob wedge anywhere under 50 so I walk up to the ball already confident
Great video Mat! Just got back to golf after a 20 year break. The shortgame is absolutely murdering my score. This video gave me a really nice reminder if what i once knew!:)
Hi Matt, thanks for your easy to understand tutorial videos, espesically the bunker shots, I often will fall back on my swing, cause a thin shot. Thanks again.
Great vid. Can you answer this please regarding the putting stroke, a lot of people say the back stroke should roughly equal the follow through, however I went for SAM lab putter fitting and they say it should 30:70 ratio?
Awesome video Matt, picked up a 56 king cobra Phil Rodgers rusty and it’s really improving my game already, every time I walk the dog I take it with me and 3 prov1
Good stuff. Could you do something for bare lies in bunkers? A lot of the courses don't have a lot of sand in them at the moment so splashing out isn't an easy option!
Pace control has helped my putting so much. I just try to have the mindset to 2 putt everything. If I get the ball within a couple feet of the hole, that's always a win for me. Every once in a while I get one in, but limiting 3 and 4 put holes has helped lower my score a ton.
Great advice. As a high handicap golfer I often duff the ball around the green. My one question is should I drop my lead foot back slightly for those fringe chips over a little rough?
Great content in 20 minutes Matt. Very knowledgeable with basic ideas that are really important for short game success.. One question. You failed to mention what degree club you used over the bunker and in the bunker . Just wondering if you used your 52 on whole video . Thanks again for the great stuff. Keep them coming and I'm spreading your name on the range and after my round in the bar of course.....
I'm not saying I mastered my old school pitching wedge but I use it in almost all pitch and chip situations and have figured out some different approaches with it - it's fun for me
Matt fryer, the king of simplicity in online tutorials 👍🏻🏌🏻♂️⛳️😉
Im an older duffer and am learning so much as Matt talks to me like a firend and with the information I can use.
This is your best video, yet, Matt! Thanks for the positive, concise short game overview. Positive thoughts are CRUCIAL to hitting better golf shots. Looking forward to putting these ideas into practice on the course this week!

Got 3 new wedges this season and love the options they give me around the green.
Nobody better than Matt. Simpla, concise advice.

Excellent video Matt. Probably the best short game one I have seen.
This is a brilliant video, had a shocker last week and this put everything into perspective. Looking forward to giving the tips a go next week 👌
Thanks for your clear instructions! Can’t wait to apply them. Will keep you posted of my progress. Much appreciation.

Brilliant short game tips all in one video....Nice one Matt, Thank You!! 👌👍
Fabulous video. There's nothing better than a teacher who can get into his students' heads. Thanks, Matt
NICE PUTT, MATE!! 👍👍 I really appreciate the straightforward nature of your instruction. Can't wait to get in a bunker!!
Cheers!

Thanks Michael, really appreciate it!
Ace advice, great instruction yet again! Please keep it coming Matt 🏌🏻♂️⛳️
It’s as though Matt watched me play and the video was made just for me! Thanks Matt, great vid!
Your videos are great. You do a great job of explaining things and helping golfers get better. Thank you.

Just watching again! Great tips! These videos are well worth rewatching!!
Best golf teacher on RUclips !
Thanks Richard, means a lot that!

Ok
Matt - Your teaching is very clear and straight-forward. :-)
Thank you mate
Nice video Matt. Well explained. Thanks
Thanks Matt great short game lesson. Answered all my questions in one lesson.
Glad it was a help
Great instructor, massively beneficial for us!
One of the best video I've ever seen. Fantastic tips for both high and low handicap amateurs. Thank you very much! Looking forward to next good one.
This is the absolute the best video I have seen focused, on the average golfer in all these areas...
My go to is a 56.
Matt great lesson when hitting from the fairway , my problem is im only in the fairway 30% of the time. What about when your in the rough or outside of the fairway?
Very important instruction in the excellent video Matt. Quality!
Hi Matt,great info,after your last tip to help with my pull shots i tried it out on course and it worked a treat,i even hit a few shots with my feet together,great result,,many thanks Les
Great advice with the "master one wedge". The moment my new 54 degree gets here, I'll do just that! Great content as usual!
Love the tip of visualizing rolling the ball with your hand to understand the pace! Can't believe I've been golfing for as long as I have without hearing that one! Thanks Matt.
Just used one of the techniques here more upright, toe into the ground. Chipped two in from off the green🙌 that’s one way to solve my putting issues. Took 10 shots of the last round 👏👏Thanks Rick
I love your instructional videos. Keep them coming!
Thanks for this. The putting info was especially good IMO.
Great set of tips Matt, been working the short game lately and become confident with the gap wedge for most of my shots.
Awesome Dale! It’s great when you have that go to club
just come off the course used your advise bud pretty good thank you
Really great instruction Matt. You make it look easy. Can’t wait to practice these drills
That’s my aim, tuff enough this game
Love #4. Anything under 50 yds is all lob wedge (unless I’m in a bunker). I’m so comfortable with my lob wedge anywhere under 50 so I walk up to the ball already confident
Don’t have a lob wedge so I do an almost flop shot with a 56 degree or PW and a kinda long bump and run which really works out for me
Excellent video very inciteful.
It's like you have been watching me, thank you for the great lesson...we appreciate your help
thanks Matt, keep em coming!
Great video Mat! Just got back to golf after a 20 year break. The shortgame is absolutely murdering my score.
This video gave me a really nice reminder if what i once knew!:)

And chip like a chump.
Great tips Matt. Just getting into golf. This video helped my short game. I continue to use these tips each time I hit the ball. Thanks!
Excellent video
Great vid. Can you answer this please regarding the putting stroke, a lot of people say the back stroke should roughly equal the follow through, however I went for SAM lab putter fitting and they say it should 30:70 ratio?

great video Matt - really helpful tips and the Box on the greens is a good one i will definitely take to preround next time out
Thanks Matt! Comprehensive and straight forward!
Great lesson!! I apply those swings toughs and I play lots of golf every day, subscribed, great vid
Good stuff. Could you do something for bare lies in bunkers? A lot of the courses don't have a lot of sand in them at the moment so splashing out isn't an easy option!
Great video! Keep up the great work.
Great Video Matt
My short game used to be pretty reasonable Matt but you have given sound advice again
Great video Matt. Chipping and I hate each other, but I will try your tips and hopefully we can start getting on better. Thanks :)

Keep them coming and I'm spreading your name on the range and after my round in the bar of course.....
Thanks Dean. Over the bunker I used a 58 as I was pitching it 70% of the way and used same in the bunker 👍
Great tips Matt, I favour my TaylorMade HiToe 52 wedge in all my chips shots - took a lot away from the bunker set up - keep the videos coming mate 👍
Lots more to come Daniel
i like your explanation of everything on this video should give a lot of people confidence to try them
Awesome video. Love your videos. Great instructor!
Thanks again for everything you do!
My pleasure Tyler
Thank you Uncle Matt!
Great lesson Matt, Cheers
Recent subscriber, really enjoying the lessons and tips! Good job
Welcome and glad you’re liking them! Plenty more to come
Informative video Matt, so I’ve subscribed. Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks Robert loads more coming
Exactly my problem - the short pitch and the first put. Mastering one wedge is a good tip to practice. Will it it a go.
I'm not saying I mastered my old school pitching wedge but I use it in almost all pitch and chip situations and have figured out some different approaches with it - it's fun for me
Iiiooi
Matt thank you for this video you are a good teacher I am enjoying your teachings :>
A great video with fantastic tips. Well done!
Great lessons. Thanks
I will be trying all of these cheers
Good man Lewis, let me know how it goes
Great lesson Matt.

Very practical tips on short games! Thanks!
So glad I watched this video. Cheers Matt
