Yesterday i shot a 41 on the front 9 of my home course which is a personal best. However i have a mental issue with the last back 9 and shot a 57 cause i got in my own head and started trying stupid shots that i shouldnt have. Moral of the story is when i follow your advice I play great, and then i get cocky and screw it up. Thanks from Alberta Canada. Cheers.

No out of bounds, thanks for the tip of stop chasing distance awhile back. Me and a buddy that hasn't played in months scrambed to shoot a 72 with 2 birdies and 2 bogeys with tap in pars on most of the holes. Got lucky on a chip in and some 10ish foot par saves but the most solid round ive played ever.

    Hey playa I have a question for you about heel up chipping. Do you put the majority of your weight on your left side? I found I was leaving chips super short when I tried toe down, and then I started putting more weight on my left side like a normal chip but still doing a putter stroke and toe down. After that, I was hitting chips to 3 feet left and right! It made a world of a difference. I feel like I’m putting 70% of my weight on my left side maybe more. Do you do the same or is it more even? Thanks for uploading so soon again you’re a legend: a gentleman and a scholar.

    I've just got really comfortable with toe down chipping and it works well for me, most of the time. Please show me how to do heel up chipping.

      Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
      I see the way you're
      Actin' like you're somebody else, gets me frustrated
      Life's like this, you
      And you fall, and you crawl, and you break
      And you take what you get and you turn it into
      Honesty and promise me, I'm never gonna find you fake it
      No, no, no

      It will land on the cow grass which is a no no. It’s like Velcro

    The putting technique you showed looked effective, but I couldn't follow it because of the lingo you used and slope percentages you mentioned?
