Hey all! I just built this golf app where you can get exclusive lessons from the world's greatest golf coaches. It's been the biggest game changer to helping me improve, and wanted everyone to be able to do the same. Check it out here! caddyai.io/
Thank you so much! That mean's the world to me. I'm just trying to provide the highest quality, the most entertaining, and the most useful golf content on RUclips! :)
Derek is a legend. He gave me a 5 min putting lesson on the practice green at the Farms one day and I had no idea who he was, just thought he was my dads friend / a member at the club and a good putter… come to find out he coaches PGA players… INCREDIBLE knowledge thanks for sharing!
I agree with everyone here. This is the real secret stuff nobody talks about! Not only is it simple an easy to understand but works! Altogether I shaved 4 strokes in a week. Nothing fancy. This is perfect Jerome. Never seen anything like it. You really helped me. Could never have gained this insight without your channel. Hope you become a RUclips sensation Thank you!
This man in good coach for real. I went to the course today morning to quickly try the putting grip technique...insanely accurate. Its shocking how much l have really been messing up. Direction, weight control with that grip is so easy to get. Now l am going for the speed training part...and try spending two thirds of my range time on putting.
When I first started playing, my grandpa told me, practice 150yds and in for 90% of your time. I have made my goal breaking into the 60's and this vid is pure gold. Been using Aimpoint since Mark Sweeney came out with it and now that I have Xander's coach on RUclips giving cheat codes!!!!!! Bruh, nothing but shaved (saved) strokes ahead. I practice putting all winter long but this is my new routine. Good stuff Jerome.
Without question the best putting instruction video I have ever seen. I took nearly 2 years off of golf due personal challenges. This refreser was much needed.
@@MrSpanky2001 Mrs. Panky you obviously are frustrated because your husband is ignoring you. Get a new hobby like sewing or knitting and stop trolling.
Hands down the best putting video I've watched. Going from the grip, through alignment and the stroke. Must watch for anyone who thinks they're a good putter.
This is the best thing anyone could ever do about learning how to play golf. Find the best teachers and stick with them. If you continue to do what you're doing you will be breaking 80 next spring. Thank you for taking us along on your journey these lessons are incredible!!!!
Can we get a petition going to get that coach to release his catalog of tiger going back to '95, please? At least some part of it... He's sitting on a gold mine and just telling us he has it. We, the viewers, might not know what to do with the information from those videos without a trained eye to interpret and express the subtle nuances to us but I'm sure we could all appreciate the elegance of the motion.
His best year was 2000 and it's on RUclips. Why copy a Tiger swing other than his peak year in 2000. Just my opinion. Sorry for hating, I just would hate for you to waste your time Butler.
Respectfully, I just feel strongly about this year of Tigers career because numbers don't lie. I'm going to backpedal now and say I'd probably watch the footage if it's available because I've seen most of Tiger that's available lol.
I followed the video and picked up the upper arms against the rib cage and practised and could feel the difference. I have been averaging 4-6 3 putts and shoot 79 -83. I am 78. I cannot wait to try on the golf course at Forest Oaks, N.C. in 2 days. I feel confident I will finally shoot my age. Really felt the stabilityy with the setup. Thanks.
Hi Jerome, seriously this video has struck so many chords with me, it is first class. I would say easily one of the best instructional videos I have seen here on YT. Thank you brother
Well done sir for being an excellent student with a first class teacher (worked with Tiger at his best!). Some diamond tips there and you listened well. Some RUclips clips have the student making unnecessary comments. I'm sure you got a lot of great advice to move your game forward. My confidence on the greens has been improved after watching this. Thanks for posting and good luck with your respective golfing and coaching careers.
Wow! No, really - WOW!! Derek U. Is an incredible teacher. His instruction is simple, to the point and practical. Why can't all golf instructors be like this? I'm off now to video #2
great lesson , great content . If I may make a suggestion - (PGA life member retired) - probably taught as much as your guy here - who was fantastic BTW. Try to lose the self deprecation after every time a question is asked or a point is made. Its a distraction and total waste of time and energy it only takes away from what you and the fellow helping you are trying to do. believe me it is common -but you won't see a good player ever do it. Your just starting out so it is a great habit to build right now
And genuinely listen while being talked to instead of all of the “Got it”s, “Uh huh”s, and “Yeah”s. Makes it appear that you are not really trying to understand the wisdom being shared with you.
I have been a long devotee of golf (30 yrs. ish...? and hold a single digit handicap. I have been searching for help with my putting as i 3 putt usually twice a round. This particular video is giving me some simple tools to go and re-work the grip and posture and see how it works. While i dont have a quintic, i do have a gc quad and i am going to see the difference it actually makes for a stable path. Can't wait and best of luck on your journey!
Excellent instruction. I feel or do some of, albeit it slightly differently, but for the most part it’s the same with different words. And, then there’s the things I’ve never heard of that I can’t wait to try!
I am quite pleased to learn that my RHLE cross dominance is actually an advantage for something. Mostly it's just been obnoxious for long gun shooting.
I am the typical amataure golfer who goes on the driving range for a warm up before a game. But after watching this my time is definitely going to be on the putting green.
DUDE YOUR VIDEOS HELPED ME BREAK 100 Specifically this video and your short game video where the coach talked about taking a step into the chip( and you learned that cool way to pick up balls with wedges) Shot a 99 today and am buzzing after a previous best of 110 THANKS MAN
Dude, the easiest way to improve putting is to draw the lines on the ball! What a tip! I'm still kind of slow at lining the ball up but I do it when everyone else is putting. I had 13 putts yesterday with 5 one putts! Just missed a couple long birdie putts. I find when I stand over the ball ready to putt, it looks like I'm aimed too far left. So I used to adjust my aim after getting over the ball. No more! Now I line it up from behind. Line up putter to ball and stroke it. The lines on the ball improve your putting stroke too. What a tip! I'm on a 21 hole streak with no 3 putts. Let's go!
This is extremely helpful and explained in a way that, as many note, understandable. Not common knowledge or taught in this manner. New subscriber and look forward to more.
Thanks for sharing. Loved this lesson. Wish it wasn’t so late I would be out putting. But did do the back into table drill for starters. 😊 Thanks again.
Been on my way to scratch myself so ive been quitely following. Im at a 5.6 right now last week was 75, 77, 79 twice. And its crazy everything else has been on autotune but my putting. Yesterday i added 3 strokes. Par 4 285 yards drove to 4 feet missed the eagle putt. Par 3 165 even closer probably 3 feet miss the birdie putt and it goes off the slope down about 12 feet miss the par putt. Hopefully watching this can save my putter from going into the water or getting broken in half
I practiced the grip, stance and elbows glued to my chest for several weeks. Today I shot my best score ever (by a lot) and had ZERO 3-putts. My putting stats ‘shots gained’ vs my handicap target went from several shots in the negative, to +3.2. This putting advice is HUGE and worth practicing.
What a great putting video. First putting video I've ever watched. Gonna be practicing this stuff immediately. I don't agree with focusing on putting and working your way backwards to the tee because golf starts at the tee. Most strokes lost by high handicappers are off the tee. If you can't hit the ball in play off the tee because of a slice and if you can't even get green side on your approach shot, you are rarely putting for boggie anyways. If you can't even putt for boggie, it doesn't matter if you can one putt or two putt because that's for double or triple and you'll never score low making triples. Once you start putting for boggie and par, then putting practice becomes essential to make that one putt for par and two putt for boggie at the worst.
I understand, and experience, your “from the tee” perspective but for instance my last round I had several good drives and a few good second shots that put me just off the green in two and still had bad scores. I still think the drive for show and putt for dough as a lot of Merit to it.
@mike coughlin I look at it like this.. Almost anyone can become a proficient putter with time/practice. It's the least physically demanding aspect of golf... Only a certain amount of people have the athletic ability to hit the ball 300+ yards consistently straight and at a desired target. So.. While putting performance separates the players at the top, it's only after they've been filtered out by distance/accuracy of their woods/irons..
I have to push back on spending 50% of all your practice time on putting. The full swing takes way more practice to be able to hit consistent solid, straight shots. All the data shows GIR is the number one factor in improved scoring . Not to mention keeping your ball in bounds and out of hazards.
Def check out the channel a lot of more putting videos with Derek and he will be with me for the long term :) so if not followed up there will def be in future videos!!

sucks. i learned nothing
Your content is incredibly undervalued. A full lesson like this is worth an unfathomable amount. Keep it up.
Thank you so much! That mean's the world to me. I'm just trying to provide the highest quality, the most entertaining, and the most useful golf content on RUclips! :)
Be honest. These tips haven't improved you game one iota. Just sayn.'

Yeah Derek is awesome. Will be having a lot more videos with him as well!
This is by far the best putting lesson on RUclips. Keep up the great content.
There will hundreds more with Derek !! :)
If these tips are so great, why haven't your scores improved? Let's be honest.
I agree with everyone here. This is the real secret stuff nobody talks about! Not only is it simple an easy to understand but works! Altogether I shaved 4 strokes in a week. Nothing fancy. This is perfect Jerome. Never seen anything like it. You really helped me. Could never have gained this insight without your channel. Hope you become a RUclips sensation

Thanks just looking to bring the most unique, highest quality content ever in Golf RUclips History :)

I worked at that golf course for 15 years and I know Derek. You are in good hands. GL

This video is so underrated. Amazing!
This coach is just fantastic! No BS, tells you like it is, and spares to detail that you need.
So much critical information to absorb in a 30 minute video 👍
I guess you will have to watch it 3 times :)
Best putting info I've seen, truly the last piece you should ever need if you seriously apply or incorporate the instruction.
I’ve only been playing for two years and learned a lot from this guy! You asked him good questions too. Good work!!
I’m glad it was useful! Hope all future content is great for you too!
The only video you’ll ever need to watch on putting basics. Great video
Without question the best putting instruction video I have ever seen. I took nearly 2 years off of golf due personal challenges. This refreser was much needed.
These tips aren't gonna help one iota. You'll still be shooting the same scores you always have. Just bein' honest.

I picked up most of what this teacher laid out in this video from watching Jack nicklaus footage years ago. This was an impeccable lesson.
AMAZING video, this kind of content from elite coaches is so interesting and helpful. Keep it up!
This is the greatest set of tips I have ever seen. Good stuff.

Thank you, Jerome for this terrific video. Mr. Uyeda is a treasure of information. I definitely will make good use of his instructions.
I’m glad it was helpful! Unlimited amount of videos Derek coming your way! :)
Ok. This is amazing. Such great details for eye dominance, body position-everything. Thanks for sharing.
Oh my gosh, I just learned so much! I am totally hiring him for lessons next month!
This coach is incredible !
Really great video. So much to learn from a guy like Derek. Thanks for this vid.
I followed the video and picked up the upper arms against the rib cage and practised and could feel the difference. I have been averaging 4-6 3 putts and shoot 79 -83. I am 78. I cannot wait to try on the golf course at Forest Oaks, N.C. in 2 days. I feel confident I will finally shoot my age. Really felt the stabilityy with the setup. Thanks.
I shot 76 using this putting hack. 3 putt on 1 st and last holes. The one on 18 was a 90 degree lip out! Watch the video.
Priceless tips for every golfer!
Bro you are fucking killing it don't stop.
These lessons are what most guys gate keep. This is amazing.
Thanks man! Only exclusive footage for all of you on this channel :)
Hi Jerome, seriously this video has struck so many chords with me, it is first class. I would say easily one of the best instructional videos I have seen here on YT. Thank you brother
Just to say a massive thanks for the putter grip change, game changer. Great putting lesson
Well done sir for being an excellent student with a first class teacher (worked with Tiger at his best!). Some diamond tips there and you listened well.

Well, great video Jerome. Thank you so much. I changed my cutting grip now and putting a lot straighter.
Wow! No, really - WOW!! Derek U. Is an incredible teacher. His instruction is simple, to the point and practical. Why can't all golf instructors be like this? I'm off now to video #2

Well done man! I love this!
Just found this channel and absolutely love it
I just realized I don’t tuck my upper arms and there’s a huge benefit in stability when I try it. 👍🏻
Outstanding Putting Lesson. Glad I found your channel. Thank you for sharing. 👍

DUDE YOUR VIDEOS HELPED ME BREAK 100

Thanks! And way more to come!!

Thanks for sharing. Loved this lesson. Wish it wasn’t so late I would be out putting. But did do the back into table drill for starters. 😊 Thanks again.
The acceleration vs velocity idea brings me back to physics class, but makes so much sense.
Great video! Thanks for sharing... as an ex pga pro, it amazes me what we get to learn for free now adays! Good luck! I'll be following your journey:)

Excellent Jerome, great stuff as usual. I'm a newb like you except other end of the age spectrum, 52. Looking forward to learning along w/ you
Excited to learn with u!
Excellent advice on putting!
Thanks for the lesson.
This is putting gold!!!
Love all the content as it's so relatable for all of us average golfers, lol. Maybe I'll see you out sometime in San Diego playing!
Brilliant man, I wish I knew that 20 years ago. You've got a new subscriber
But late than never!! :)
Wow i just came across this channel. Youve got a new sub! Quality content!
Glad you liked it! Tell your friends hahaha
I love this video. Thank you!
I didn't know a Wing Chun stance can come in so useful in putting and in golf swing. I will sure give it a try using the Wing Chun stance haha!
Absolutely clear and concise method, I always got the jitters when putting with the scientific grip somehow that jittery feeling has vanished.
Let me know when you come to Europe Jerome. Happy to play some golf with you here in Portugal
next level!! really good!!
Great putting tips!
what a fantastic channel, just found this!!
thanks for being part of it! Spread the word :) haha
Yeah but if i tell my friends then they will learn all the tips @@JeromeRufin
Ladder drill and 60/40 put thought super helpful
I found this too complex with too many things to remember but I will take some of these drills out for a try.
I practiced the grip, stance and elbows glued to my chest for several weeks.
Today I shot my best score ever (by a lot) and had ZERO 3-putts.
My putting stats ‘shots gained’ vs my handicap target went from several shots in the negative, to +3.2.
This putting advice is HUGE and worth practicing.
I feel your pain. Have exactly the same problem.
Would love to see the other putting videos.
Keep it up. Hope you get better with your putting.
Check out the channel page more videos with Derek are there :)
Thanks Jerome. Good luck with your putting. No more 3 putts!
This is like a $1000 lesson. OMG so good.
I love the set up....

Fantastic tips, welcome to LA!
Glad you enjoyed! And I’m actually in San Diego :)
Brilliant best ever thank u
This video should cost like$500 to watch. It’s going to take me the rest of the summer to groove all of this
This video has transformed my putting entirely. In 2 weeks I have gone from the king of 3 putting to being deadly on the greens.
