A lot of us we’re playing golf once a week and all we want to do is have a good score have a good time and part of that is just breaking 90 but we’re often looking in the wrong places on how to break 90 trying to hit it further people
Telling us to hit more greens in regulation useless stuff you already have the game and I’m going to show you how to use it to break 9 the first step is that you need a tea club that goes around 200 yard to get the ball in play
Ball in play is the most important on the first hole we want to avoid catastrophe get a good start so I’m going to hit a 200 yard Club here we’ve got a opening par4 400 y we don’t need to get too Technical and fancy when you want to break 90 the
Clubs you need to hit need to go 200 175 150 125 and around 100 yards plus your sandwich that’s all I’m playing today those 25 yard increments then you want to have a little GPS unit whether a watch or a GPS unit like this from shot
Scope you want to play to the back Edge cuz most of the time you’re overestimating your distances so I’m playing to back edge here 171 so I’m playing my 175 y club now when we’re trying to break 90 Greens in regulation professional style can be important for you when you can
Take advantage of them but think more in terms of pable in regulation this is putable in regulation so we’re around the Green in enough shots that two putts gets us par but essentially what we want is to be on the green on a par four in
Three shots a par five in four shots and a par three in two shots to break 90 we’re in good shape to break 90 we have to remove wasteful shots one of the wasteful shots is three putts this is about 3 and 1/2 ft you want to commit to your line and
Stay down forever and wait for the rattle don’t ever look up just stay stay down and wait for the sound that’s all you have to do don’t look up though as soon as you look up that’s when you push the ball a lot and
You push it and leave it on this side of the hole cuz you’re anxious stay down commit to your line when we trying to break 90 we have to remember that our t- shot counts zero just imagine that your t- shot it puts you into a position where you’re hitting your first shot
Maybe you don’t hit a great t- shot let’s go through that okay we want to avoid going on tilt chasing our losses so we go to this par five and we all intend to hit our 200 yard Club and Bam we hit it on the left side toward
The ladies teas we haven’t even got past the ladies teas how embarrassing we haven’t even made the ladies but we got 369 yards to the center of the green we have three more shots 368 ided by 3 is 125 three shots of 125 that’s what I’m
Going to do for you you don’t have to split it up like that you can do 200 and have 160 left go 8080 you can go 2 168 up to you I’m doing the safest play not chasing my losses not trying to hit the big three-wood now because I’m out of
Position no get back in position you’ve got three more shots to hit this green calm down stinky winky 125 yd Club wow look at that 125 yard Club straight back in play we got two more shots from there okay gang bangers we’ve got ourselves to about 269 yards so we
Don’t have the we’ve got a 125 yard Club if we hit that twice we’re still short so I’m going to hit my 150 Club to get me closer so maybe we can hit our 125 to the back of the hole so that we’re on there over the water in four shots okay
150 from 269 center of the green up on the right side away from the water don’t go toward hazards so the balls hit the hard Turf and run all the way down here leaving me much less than I thought I’ve got 79 to clear this water I’ve got 990 yard to
The middle of the green and 106 yards to the back now this is kind of not in my club range but the back of the green is that’s on the 100 yard range so I’m going to hit my 100 yard Club 10 yard over the pin 5 yard short of the back of
The green if I hit it perfectly I’m going to be back Edge and if I hit it mediocre I could be right next to the pin oh boy sit down okay on the back Edge the reason we go back edge here is because you’re not going to try to Target 80 yards because
If you hit it bad you’re in the water we go back Edge trouble short go long come on why is my swing so stressfree on these shots because I know my distance you must learn your distes when you know your full distes and you know that club
Is guaranteed 100 125 150 175 200 those five clubs become easy to swing and you actually find you pick up a little bit distance we’re on the back of the green here beautiful we didn’t chase our losses we just stuck to the game plan even after a shitty drive now we just
Need a two putut and if we don’t you know what it doesn’t matter you’re going to take doubles every now and then you just have to roll with those punches not today though not today look at that distance control that’s what it’s all about practice your pading for
Distance control put a te peg in the ground from far away and just stop the ball near the teg you’re going to be a legend like me one of the ways of removing wasteful shots is to avoid analyzing your swing and looking at YouTube for swing advice for mechanics
It’s very wasteful the best thing you can do if you want to improve your swing because you have something wrong with your shot shape is to get professional help and there’s an app for this called swing tweaks now all you have to do is send them a Down the Line video and a
Fronton video of your swing it was so easy I sent my swing in and a a couple hours later Pro Adam explained my chicken wing to me clearly it cost less than a sleeve of golf balls and saves so much time we see quite quickly in your
Swing here is you take it away quite a bit inside of that line or underneath that line left arm a little bit low across the chest we’d like to see it really working completely across that shoulder line and what that creates is is a little bit of a vertical pull down
On the butt of the club so rather than that butt of the club being able to work straight down behind us we can see that it moves just off of that line now here you do a pretty good job of getting that shaft to flatten out as we get to the
Middle part of the plane line but we can see right here at this point we’d really want to see that the arms were starting to make some extension this way into the left side just past impact you can see some small chicken winging going on in
The arms Adam gave me the drills from Eric KERO and trolf to fix my issues I feel super confidential and you can too with a swing tweaks preseason sale for only $ 1880 United States dollar you can get a 10 pack of tweaks to use throughout the season get all your
Lessons sorted before the season even starts but you must use code players sometimes your main tea Club is definitely off the boil so we’ve just got the ball in play there with 150 yard club we got 205 to the middle of the green and 220 to the back so what I see
Us doing especially uphill is playing to that back Edge distance because it plays longer when you go uphill so 220 I’m going to want to hit my 150 yard club and leave myself like 75 but uphill playing about 80 85 and remember we brought our Sand Wedge along which how
Far does your Sand Wedge go you must know that distance 150 yard Club from 220 to the back Edge playing uphill leave this one a little short give yourself a pitch we left ourselves 71 and 86 to the back 86 to the back playing uphill we’re probably left ourselves a playing
Distance of 90 91 so that’s about 100 yard club or the sand wge but inside 100 you’re going to have to practice a lot to get these shots right there’s no two ways about it it’s all about the game inside 100 yard and anybody can play the game
Inside 100 yards because you don’t need power you don’t need raw talent you need practice see one of the things that I notice a lot of people when they’re trying to break 90 is they out on the slope of the green and they often hit a ball like this well past because it’s
Downhill one one of the things you can do when you’re trying to break 90 is be cognizant of downhill putts because you have to hit them softer imagine a cup just short of the real hole while you’re doing your warm- up like this thinking H
That’s how hard I have to hit it to that hole and then you can either hit your ball as normal or even look at that fake hole in your imagination and that just leaves you there and you’re so happy with that it’s a 1ot tap in that’s much better than a 7 footer
Six-footer back up the hill as we play 18 holes it’s going to fluctuate we’re going to go up and down you might make a par on a very difficult hole and take a six on another hole as long as you’re averaging that out to basically bogey Golf and remember with
Golf you don’t have to be perfect especially to break 90 it’s just about making your imperfections smaller we’re in that situation again where we can go for the green we have 150 yard to the middle of the green and you have to analyze the hole that you’re on we have
Bunkers short here that are going to be a disaster if you’re trying to break 90 you need to see where you can miss the shot so that you have the best option of getting your CH yourself a chance at a par by having a nice chip onto the green
If I go in the bunker left if I go in the bunker right not such a nice chip if I leave it a bit short I’m happy if I go over I’ve got a very tough chip from experience of playing this hole front of the green is so Le you probably got a
50/50 chance of chipping and putting so I’m going to go 150 maximum Club could be a little short do you see gang bangers if we go over the green here we got a lot of slope very difficult to chip to a pin tight on the back when you’re coming off
These slopes you want to Flat chip and you want the most green possible and what I mean by the most green is the pins of the back look at all the green between you and your ball and the pin there’s my ball there’s the pin I get to
Roll that ball like a mother lover all the way to this pin keep this in mind chipping putting full shots pictures we want to simplify everything into our little station here we’re going to have a little chipping station and in this chipping station we want to identify a
Place to land the ball and how much roll out and how it’s going to break after you hit the ball and on the Green it breaks like a putt chip with something low lofted we’re not hitting a 60° here in fact to break 90 throw away your 60°
Throw it away I give you full permission never to play it again you don’t need it until you’re a professional we’re going to take a nine iron here we could probably even go as low as an eight we’re going to take it and grip the club
Like we grip our pter and hold it down flat on the ground and then lift the handle move closer this is toe down chipping and the rule of 12 we find where the ball is going to land land it there and let it roll it’s going to
Break big time right to left and hopefully we’ll settle up within 5 ft of the pin that’s why I say you can probably use something even lower lofted than a nine iron you could probably even go eight on I’ve left that probably 6 ft short and an eight on on the exact same
Spot is going to leave you right next to the cup no more 60° no more 56° we leave ourselves chips with lots of run out and we use low Loft to take advantage of the run out out cuz a chip is a putt with a bit of Bounce in the beginning putting
Can be difficult if you’re trying to break 90 I get it so a little technique you can pick up here that I picked up from Bob Rella I shot 67 never looking at the golf ball the entire round I may not make this putt but that’s okay it’s
A concept that counts this is going to break right to left go with your first instinct pick a spot at the top of that brake so if your if your brake is going to be let’s say a foot right find a spot on the on that line to a foot now you
Can either look at that point there or you can either look at the spot you want to roll the ball over so I’m going to actually look at the spot I’m going to roll the ball over all the way on the right here I’m not going to look at the
Ball I’m going to look at the ball when I set up and then I’m going to look at that spot and Putt while I look at the spot rolled over my spot and just sneaks in the cup you don’t have to look at the ball because
If you look at the ball sometimes you psych yourself out look at the place you want to roll the ball off over and start to develop some feel your body will work it out and you’ll be able to putt like a bous better distance control 150 y to
The middle of the green 164 to the back so we have a beautiful Choice here because we HED exactly to the middle of the green distance we have 150 yard Club but I want you to take into account the conditions if the wind’s into you you’re going to lose distance you’re going to
Want to hit the 175 if the wind’s with you stick with the 150 plate to the back Edge it’s all about analyzing your conditions so so I’m going to hit the 150 yard Club here but I’m not going at the pin because that means I’m going directly over deep ass bunkers I’m going
To go left to the left edge of the green so that if I hit it a little short like 135 I’m still going to have a pitch up the green we want to play to Texas big safe conservative space always take into account your shot shape if you hook it
You want to aim it at the pin and let it hook if you fade it you can aim it where I’m aiming it in case it does fade toward the PIN just like that little fader little fader more than I’d expected and wow that’s that’s close it
May look so simple because I’m a one handicap whatever but you have all the shots the only problem is you’re not using them you’re trying to hit hero shots you’re trying to do shots that you don’t know how to hit you’re using too much loft around the greens you’re not
Practicing your chipping and putting you’re three putting all the time now let’s continue with some beautiful pting Alpha I’m now going to look at a spot I want to hit roll P the ball over right near the cup 2 ft 3 ft short of the cup
There’s a blemish there and I’m going to look at that and swing my putter just missed it to the left and I missed my hole to the left now you may experience the naysayers the people who are doing what everyone else is doing that doesn’t work chasing distance no this system places
Too much pressure on your wedges on your putting you have to be elite putting and chipping gang banger as an amateur we are going to miss most of the the greens to break 90 you only need to hit four or five of the greens okay so that means
You’re going to miss 13 14 15 greens around which automatically by default means you are a Scrambler you will be scrambling your whole golfing life I’m a Scrambler I play over one handicap I’ll hit maybe six seven Greens in a round my best round will be 11 or 12 but I don’t
Always do that so you’re going to have to get good at the short game by default that’s going to hold you in good stead ha when you want to get into the 70s cuz all the other long stuff comes and goes on day off day short game is with you
For good when you get that right you bring your ceiling scores way down from going to 100 105 92 93 Max that I can promise you that’s why my message is the same for 5 six years now and nothing will change nothing can change my mind cuz I live in
The real world not on paper 175 yard Club even on this massive hole why because my 200 yard club for example is no longer working look at that in play on the right side two more shots on the green maybe not take a double let’s go we’ve got so many things
Going for us on a long hole like this it was 430 from the te that’s insane it’s almost a par five right but it’s a par four into the breeze really difficult hole we can go fomo YOLO and hit the ball into the woods and now we’re taking
A drop but I’ve hit my basically 175 or 150 yard Club and I have 270 left to the middle of the green stress free I don’t stress why because this shot counts for zero so I have two shots here to play this Par Four as a 270 yd Par Four is
That not the shortest Par Four you’ve ever heard of exactly two shots of 150 and we’re on the back of the green here on the longest hole probably stroke index less than five leave ourselves something like 125 150 don’t have to hit the ball hard cuz
We’re not going for the green what a beautiful life easy game what do we do when we stuck here we’ve got 120 to the front we’ve got 137 to the pin and 155 to the back so we’re right between clubs the 125 y Club will
Hit the front of the green and the 150 yard Club will hit the back of the green well it’s an easy decision here because we have the pin on the front of the green therefore front edge at 125 is perfect if we hit the 150 Club we’re
Going to leave ourselves at the back of the green with a downhill putt the most difficult Putt in golf full a out of golf is this downhill long putts so let’s give ourselves the shortest putt shortest chip just short of the green there we’re on the front Fringe and we are absolutely money
Beautiful the most amazing thing about playing like this is that the moment you accept Bogey’s a great score for you pause somehow get onto your score card no lies but some days you just make the five to stay alive if you need some more help breaking 90 check out this video over
