Awesome video. Do you know what that putting aid is called that he lines you up with?
bro has some serious hip and ankle flexibility LOL
3614 days now. First played golf in a scramble June 22, 2013. The greatest and most expensive thing that’s ever happened to me haha
Love this coach and Mike. I understand making money but damn these adds r like every couple minutes lol
These videos are gold! Such good insights from top notch instructors. Thank you for these videos.
Phenomenal content Jerome. Thanks for the Knowledge Derek!
What are the critical dimensions of that putting plate? Like how wide is the exit gate and how far from the putter face? We need to know dammit!
What training aid is that (the one with the gates)? Would love to buy one
On these pitch and put type courses have you considered not using a tee? The practice hitting full shots off the ground might help you out in the long run on the regulation courses
Awesome channel! Where can I get the putting plate tool?
what is that tape measure he is using with the string on it?
This is awesome and so helpful. Amazing he did this
People used to use the logos as an alignment tool maybe not as good but some help. What about club face groove design?? Is that an alignment tool? I think a straight logo design with pointer arrow type things is fine maybe a little overkill with the lines wrapping the ball imo
1h20 to hole a 3 hole 🕳️ breaking putt… 😂. Come on… a ten minute version would work too… 😅
Standing behind a player while he's putting is not poor etiquette. It's against the rules.
Thanks Derek for looking out for the viewers
It would be great if you had a teaching pro on your show that explained cheat codes on playing faster, for all of us to watch.
I would watch Derek all day long
This guy just explains evrything so well, perfectly easy to understand
After 1min. I agree on everything. lines on the ball are too much. Pick a spot in front of the ball and push it/hit it/ trust it and go.
3 minutes in… I want to work for him. Please dm me.
Where can I get that putting alignment aid? The only one I can find like that is the Dave Pelz version for about $50 that uses marbles instead of the tees and cannot be fixed to the green.
I thought it was good he was building you up with your green reading… then I could see he wasn’t happy with it really, then he couldn’t wait to shoot you down that it was all random things you were doing 😂 what a bellend. 5 mins before it he said about Rahm, how it’s all feels for him and he’s great. You were reading it well, he should have kept building you up.
I’m really enjoying these lessons. I’m wondering what your coach would say about my putting.
Love this putting lesson. Very well explained and executed. No wonder Xander is such a good golfer. Well done! Are all the great instructors in SD??
Jerome. Does Derek have a website we can buy the practice plates?
I’m curious how much you got from him, and still use?
Great instruction, super explanation of theory etc..
I really like the idea of a plain, white ball for golf. A player can mark their ball with their initials but when they tee off or are putting, the initials must be facing the ground. I agree with Derek; these lines on the ball are training aids and should be illegal, at least in the professional game.
This is a very Good reality check on your optics👍🏽. Had lesson with putting Doc Jon Karlsen Norway and this was one of 10 different challenges… the thing is You need to do them for result 🎯🥊
