let’s go and meet Sir Nick Hvana i absolutely love you and thank you let’s go sir Nick Fo are an absolute legend it’s an absolute honor to meet you sir um and thank you so much for doing this um I’m struggling with my short game Sir Nick um I’m getting better at this beautiful game but the short game in and around the greens is where I’m struggling and Husvana have given me your good self to teach me which I’m buzzing about so So as soon as you chip one in lesson’s over yeah done done all right that’s my That’s my goal right then we won you when you hit one i’ll have a good laugh i mean I’ll then um assess your potential from afar and see what you’re made of all the the lovely people who watch our channel give me so much feedback and stuff but I I read the comments and I go for it a lot of people have told me that in and around the area uh green here with the pin being there I should be like leaning into my front foot do don’t you worry about the technical you just hit one first for me and show me what you got and then I’ll and then I’ll uh So you want it better than that do you i mean that was a good first just turn around cameraman that was a good first one guys he’s just winding me up it’s just And then you should do Yeah yeah there we go this is So the first one was a fluke okay flukeish i have a massive problem of committing i love it i love it when you just come and tell me so guess what I’m going to make you do commit more get rid of the word problem massive commitment you You teach yourself you self hypnosis is dreadful without G isn’t it i can’t do this i can’t do that yeah so yeah okay so the technical bit for for this is your your bog standard chip shot yeah okay the most two most important things as you said your weight has really got to be here tons of it okay like 90% so a simple trick is get your right heel off the ground okay at address look so now my weight’s over here but I’m already way over because you got to have an you got to have a your angle of attack has got to be down and you got to feel the bounce right exactly there you know underneath the golf ball yeah can’t be before it obviously can’t be after so we got to time that so that’s what you got to visualize as well how the club drops and find I call it find the ground okay you feel the ground feel the bounce of the club not the leading edge feel the bounce of the club you know into the grass and they lovely feeling is brush the grass is a lovely word isn’t it not we’re not trying to stick it you just brush the grass see what I’m doing to the grass look at it i’m just brushing the grass brushing the grass a great word which does help the next important thing I saw club golfers go from their six iron stance and they come in and do exactly the same they’ve got no connection this look at all this yeah so we’ve got to get in a position where wherever our chest goes the arms will go so there’s connection right okay right so really trap your triceps onto your chest gently but they’re there so wherever my chest goes the club will go the arms will go so there’s no way we don’t want any of this just you know being unconnected so a simple drill when you’re new it’s a good old towel drill cuz if you put without a golf ball right yeah if you’re connected look and the weight’s there then you find the ground look at that from motion great isn’t it absolutely brush the grass just say brush it don’t none of that don’t never help it you got to have the ang You’re trying to hit down add the loft pop the ball up so try the towel first just trap it under your arms yeah can get in that position that I was doing so imagine you got your So you get it right under your armpits yeah all right so trap it lift your put your feet almost together lift your left right heel off the ground and now your weight’s way over isn’t it yeah you can feel it properly there okay so now all you got to do right so use your chest or your shoulders to move your hands not your hands moving that make your bigger body muscle brush the gr okay so I know you like my grip drill I just did yeah it was amazing so that’s Yeah so you got to have a good You’ve got a hands have got to be So your hands are trapped already right so you’re probably scared of it cuz they will then you this is help so you got to have play in your hands so do what I was doing yeah could you talk us through it for people watching because I was watching with absolute amazement so always get a metal wood because it sits square right now just with your left hand you’re you’re not a golfer just look tap it tap that golf ball like this just do that yeah to start with seriously look look at Look how good that wrist is moving yeah nice and light look I’ve got fingers i’m not trying to bury it in the ground i’m just tapping it i’m tapping the nail on top of that just do that and see if your left hand works differently don’t have to hold yeah just relax relax all the fingers so you’re you’re playing with it you’re now you’re an artist see that’s different if you we if we filmed it before that’s great put the thumb on as well there you go feel it play with it very good that’s That’s different already that’s interesting i’m even I’m on the right track right so forget the golf ball now hold your wrist hold your wrist like that to copy me i’ll do it demon now tap it actually have a thump without the hammer give it a thump so hold your wrist so let and again fingers let the fingers bounce around so start with a little there go even even more go on feel it different than that that’s waking all these muscles up using the Yeah so seriously you do that as a drill i’ve got I’ve got a um I got one of those slam balls you know with the sand in it yeah so I whack I got a metal bloody bar and I go wallet up wallet and so I hang on to this and after 50 my the blood’s trying to you know but you got to have see look at those fellas you got to have and they are massive yeah you got to have three serious you need wrists in this game and this is this is I haven’t played you imagine what they were like when I was when you wrist you do this before every time you play I do it all at home now because it’s great because less wrist strength is really good as you get older especially working at the old forum now but seriously do that a lot right so that’s your left hand that was good do it again so already straight away your left hand is good feel the thumb very good and give it a whack go on oh see you’re moving your body go on use your use your wrist oh you see it’s hard work isn’t it so there’s another So there’s another thing you got to look Look at the up down yeah you got to have that amount of movement you’re trying to help it yeah so just got to be all wrist look at that right try that do a few more we There we go you see now it’s moving no wonder you got massive wrist neck that’s an absolute absolute workout yeah seriously okay wow so that’s that hand very good actually he’s done for the day i bought my CBD cream don’t worry supposed to be a cheap turn into a workout so then this hand right hand is the paintbrush yeah that’s the image i’m trying to help with the image so if you were drawing a line on the wall I’ve you know I’m standing like this with a stick you draw a line on the wall then you give it a flick imagine you got thick paint thin paint get me on the wall that’s a paintbrush that’s what you got to do with the golf swing the club comes down drag it through and then it fires yeah we don’t do this and we don’t do that the club comes down you see into here drag it along and through that’s not a bad little little drill there look there it comes along drag it and then through so put your same thing trigger remember when I talked about the trigger so just trigger it again it’s a paintbrush forget it’s a golf club imagine now what’s this finger trigger there you go cuz you that’s that’s all powerful right now drag it along there and then and then then it releases there you go so give it some release painting there you go see it’s almost the hand moves before that moves like that and then release that’s better so hand moves and hang on to the angle so this is really important this angle in the golf game if you can if you can control this bit so that’s how we play yeah bit like ping pong you know how ping pong if you got a ping- pong bat you’re kind of doing things like this with the ball yes we do the same sort of thing but that you got to you got to train your hands to have that look that look going that way and that look going that way not quite see how you really triggered pull that up so I really got to look at this see look at the creep there you go look at that angles get those angles yeah get those angles there you go so that’s through and flick it through again that would You’ll feel that under there won’t you after a while for it yet so seriously do that as much as you can at home really good for you and like I was I was demonstrating when the So when you get good at that Yeah you’ll get you’ll grip it with these three fingers back three those three and then these three if you squeeze them as well squeeze three and three those three squeeze those to grip it do your hammer and squeeze those three get in there now right and then you put your right hand on same thing squeeze these three so the trigger’s like that yeah the trigger wow that’s completely different to how I held the golf yeah so for every every single shot it should be yeah yeah cuz your wrists have got to be able to do this your wrists are doing this nothing you got to stir the pot oh my goodness you got to have And I do figure of eights all these sort of things you know both hands you know and if you have to hold to start off with see look at all that mo rot you got to these things have got to be moving can’t play this game like this but already that feels so much I’ve got so much more movement you got some blood in your hands now what was I doing before was I just gripping too tight you just you Well you’d know you just here but there was no nothing so you were doing it all with your body so if you’re trying to do that that’s when you you’re gonna mishit it so many times okay so so that’s number one what you got to work on okay brilliant thank you so let me demo so then number two as I said watch this so to So when you get good hands you can actually use the hand we’re not using the hands this has all got to flow you know if I if you were throwing a ball Yeah same deal you know you you see it and you you go with the without thinking about it you go like that wouldn’t you well look at all the movement look how I finished i didn’t I didn’t throw it like that no do you no you go so you go Well I’m going to make that ball gently go and look so we have to do basically the same in the golf swing yeah so I got to let everything go and follow it so I finish here we don’t hit them like that yeah so so Nick that’s what I’m so guilty of just literally stabbing caring scared you’re scared of that thing you think just hit the ball hit the ball yeah so we got to get a bit of flow and you see everything moves gently with it yeah i follow it i just kind of follow the Yeah then that’s You want to be as soft how Well that’s kind of how quietly can you hit the golf ball it’s not you know it’s like collected okay so look you watch really good so again it’s really good techniques you got good hands now good connection great weight then all you have to do is find something in your body up here to power to make this all move and I used to love thinking of my right shoulder as simple as this look if I’m if my right shoulder goes up to the sky down to the golf ball there is a bog standard chip shot right simple as that yeah and that that’s the power cuz again under pressure I want the simplest of movement don’t I yeah i got to chip and get up and down for a blooming open you want bonk see lovely and simple so let’s just just do a couple like that not worried about where it goes see how everything works together and I find the goal and there’s my brushing sound look brush it lovely see not trying to hit it i’m just brush the grass so are you coming off the sound of it as well if you know yeah sounds very important yeah we can hear that on TV and everything you can hear boom that lovely little click that’s everything together if I get if I get that one that doesn’t sound good yeah that doesn’t sound too good at all so that’s right okay so try and do a couple of those then just do a little a little bog standard not concess Strike it i want that i want that sound strike it right right go on trigger trigger paintbrush trigger so three hammer paint right don’t worry about the Just forget the flag this is strike this is your strike um strike drill so feet closer together heel off the ground nice and connect you’re still not connected look I still can get in there right okay so right to really squish yourself yeah and you we stand a little open yeah put that foot forward a bit there you go so should the the front the Yeah that’s fine just just get comfortable it’s like Okay forget the Stay there just throw me just throw me one towards those balls there that’s what I want you to do so what would you do there you go and again feel it bit more bit more just lob it onto the green see look at all the movement all as one yeah just feel that right now do similar look where you want so very important you’ve got to look where you want it to land right you want to land it you know one yard on the This is a great target yeah where do you want to land Gaffer that’s good for starters like you’re going to land it bonk right that’s how accurate we were back in the day stick in so you So you’re going to look at that you want to land it there get really now get close to look i’m going drive a bus through here connect get close to squish up right right now if the right shoulder goes to the sky just up no do get the right shoulder go up up to the sky brush then brush the grass for me up and brush no brush still no brush ah but but that was a massive brush that started there to there right so I want you to brush and land right there getting that hang on don’t take me fingers off am I hearing that yet brush the teeth here go on better very good but I want I want to hear that so more of a thud brush it yeah brush the Find the ground brush the grass better and again get steeper this powers it not the arms nice little action you’re only trying to send it what’s that eight yards through the air boom now that’s So now you’re helping it see you see how this arm gets connected stay all connected good very good one good one so you know this is back to this towel drill for your viewers seriously you do this look you get connected and you do stand on one leg for fun and you can do that look see look at that not help not helping it and if you can wander around and wherever you aim look they find the cone and find that thing and hit that and hit get me yeah are you just walking around your front room doing stuff like this yeah well chip chip on there just a chip on the old axe minister at home gosh persian rug my mama we actually had a Persian rug in gone city right so stay really connected come on has to you could jam this right shoulder together right now right shoulder go straight to the sky down to the ball hit that ball go up down up ball right find the tempo don’t help it trap it so three things it’s sky ball you’re heading towards the ball well sky and thump sky thump let’s do that sky and brush it sky and brush it just get that going two things keep it simple come on guy and brush the grass closer it was a bit fatty was it trust it cuz I did trust the club will bounce nearly oh yes nearly just Just a little little more little more room keep together towel towel towel leg up better okay hit before the ball why is that sonic i can see it now we’re going to get to that bit in a minute let me I was just going to do one so let me add one more thing before we get So next really simple thing is the tempo right one two one two one two technically if you imagine you’re going back at 1 mile an hour and you’re going through at two fantastic so accelerate get me without helping it so we don’t want one to five we go one two one two get me not one one cuz that’s nothing so let me show you so you need the tempo one two one two get me so I just go one two there we go that’s what I’m looking for boom right simple as that so I’m not helping it the two is going to be the ground one two lovely is that one can then you can put the one into your body one could be your shoulder yeah one and two is the bum is the is the brush okay try that just get one two one two right set up legs close together right heel lean in connect towel towel towel really connect just get close to it just get comfy you’re still a little bit away you’re kind of you’re on your tippy toe just Just settle down so everything’s balanced your whole body is even but relaxed okay yeah right and then now give me a one two one two close oh need to take the balls out there you go but make the two bounce one two one help that was all arms wasn’t it put this put all your thought the only way the club head moves all your hands is your right shoulder just goes to the sky go on sky and thump sky and brush sky and brush try to help it well that’s it’s coming so when you get a little bit of play in everything in your hands so you you’re kind of like rigid and you need that little bit of trigger relax i should I shouldn’t I shouldn’t be holding the club really tight just nice and like just hold it like they say it’s you’re holding a bird like a budgy right okay with hemorrhoids hold it gently one two one two the the one is too long as in too too far too far back it’s one two one two okay I’m just going to do one one two one one two ah oh oh go on the one two there you see yes the one two there it is okay okay very good that just felt and sounded exactly so have a practice there that’s what you do when you’re on the golf course go one two two good when you hear the nice thump now that’s two that’s two two no that’s Find the ground for me make sure you find the ground nearly little steeper so lean into it so more you lean into it you can hit down on it if you get too level see the you’re like this see it’s going right that’s skimming through the I want thumb i want that sound you’re going to practice that at home and go absolutely that’s the sound hey it’s good okay right do that one just in gentle you only going eight yards okay so go one two one two very good man two in a row now all right so now we’re ready for your test this is awesome please don’t get the balls i’ll get the balls no don’t worry got loads no I just need you so one two one two one two one two would that I’ll um I’ll write it down for you thank you so much would that be would that be the same further out as well yeah yeah this works everywhere one two obviously it’s even putting was one two that’s just a great image timing yeah so right now you’re now you’re all on your own now you’ve got it so you’re going to hit three balls to that target that flag and I’m going to shut up and they’re going to film where they finish and we see what you can do okay okay right so we got we got somebody for the result right off you go you go and do everything I taught you feet close together on the left keep the shoulders in sonic failed hotel um and one two no that I’ll try to not say anything i’ll just say connection connect feel your body feel the arms touch your chest right got something to be haven’t we okay so again blime me pole how am I going to beat that am I against you no no no but now now we’re going to go up we’re going to take it up a notch now so remember what you said so when you have the inconsistency so then the next thing that’s really important is the pressure in your left thumb cuz that supports the club so if you do this onehanded now you’ll feel how it supports if this left thumb is all sloppy it goes boing all over the show doesn’t it so you got to squeeze this to support the club so that’s your next exercise so try and do that there left hand only so now you got your you feel your feel your hammer grip but squeeze your thumb so it supports the sound and the the thump of the ground no I want the thumb right in front of you right there there you go and again that’s tougher isn’t it massively tough yeah yeah see that’s all play with the wrists and And you’re going like that so just keep Here’s a secret keep the Do your tapping see when you do your tapping you see that’s called cupping you want to see that cup in your wrist pick it up right just pick your wrist up like that you see it no that’s right now you see that’s too much down you’re like that yeah you got that look i want that look with the thumb a bit over yeah that should naturally go there when you do your tap so do a couple of taps and see that and then when you take it back you still keep that just keep keep that cup you keep that angle see look at the difference and then then I play with it and then I can whack it so then again that’s putting the strength in my fingers isn’t it can you feel the strength if you cup it you feel down here as well then you can if you do that one your strength is here which hurts so you want your strength in here the fingers right okay all right that’s nearly so you got to work on that you got to better feel those fingers pick it up and pop it on the ground not quite there yet so when you were like winning everything obviously six times major winner would you do like gym work for your wrist and stuff like that because we’re too poor in our days we couldn’t afford the weights really so you wouldn’t It’s good no we we we we did we did the silly stuff we had a bloody brick on a stick we used to do this one now back in my era which is a long time ago now we we didn’t understand the science which made sense when people said you know don’t lift weights i said well you’re right don’t I’m not lifting 100 pounds when a golf club weighs 12 ounces but now they know what to do we got a whole science now these guys do powerlifting and all sorts of things then they learn to explode we were different era we were all about tempo and timing okay now it’s all about explode you know fast speed fast twitch yeah we we were you were a slow twitch fiber or fast twitch and you thought you you couldn’t change which is not true i think you can you can you can train to get faster and faster can’t you now we didn’t believe we didn’t know that we didn’t have that science in okay so we did it all from we hit golf balls out the rough you want to get stronger you hit bloody balls out the rough and that’s what you go and doing when you’re practicing you got stronger stronger neck and that’s you and that’s how we used to bloody practice all the time so when you were up and coming and you know falling in love with this beautiful game did your teacher tell you all these drills or is it something that you No no no this is this is me this you’re get you’re getting serious six time major champion stuff absolutely and I’m and I’m absolutely buzzing about it as well you’re getting secrets here no this is this this is to take it to another level you know you get all the you get all these YouTubers y giving lessons and I laugh my ass off now because they all go “Oh I’ve just got this ingenious new drill and they go wallet wallet.” And I go “Fo did that 40 years ago mate.” You know so completed it mate got the t-shirt why are you doing them just give me credit when you go I thought of something fantastic just double check if Fo did it moons ago seriously so um yeah we’re going to have to make a comeback because of you know because you know there’s a lot of stuff you know seriously all these all these YouTube pros giving golf lessons but as you saw if if you can learn to do this Yeah i mean we do you got to you’ve got actually got to be able to learn to do that chip a golf ball one yard can I ask why because you’re going to get on golf course you’re going to get a one yard chip shot one day i’m good with the part though i’d part it no if you’re in this much of rough what do you do probably part it exactly no but would you on a serious would you practice doing the the one yard yes i had a thing called one two three cuz very technical so how good was I and I had all these different little shots was I good enough to look do that make it go one yard and then can I then can I go that’s the three so I’m trying to get the two can I get Can I Am I good enough to be able to just pop it oh that’s seriously on the back of a green America like a like a saucer they are you got to land it just right there in front of it you’re in this much of rough you just better got to pop it there and it goes whoosh all the way down to that pin to chip a ball one yard can I just try that because I don’t have a lot of minerals for that so just I’m going to do I’m going to do some it’s fun here go use your club so in case you break mine just just lob it over that try that we’ll have a competition see who can who can do the bestest actually very good all right was it seriously very good but that’s a that’s a fun little little um exercise and that would help going forward with those well yeah you look at you finish on that down slope over there right and it’s all down to the pin and you’ve all you got to do is land it one yard in front of you seriously you get this shot on the golf course a lot one yard how delicate let’s see how delicate you can do this one beat that brilliant i’m not I’m not competing very good love that all I can say is I’m a good coach you are a good coach all right now you’ve mastered that one gee but why can I do that then and when I when I come to trying to get the proper well the other one was the tempo and everything and that well that’s good sign you can if you can control the club face now you know that’s very important isn’t it okay so what what was I saying so now just with your left hand I want you to do two practice swings and you feel the feel that one two and then you keep that pressure in in your hand and then you stand up and go bonk like that okay right I want you to and I’m try and shut up as well so so all you do is two practice swings left hand only thumping the ground let me get rid of that ball it’s class isn’t it all right you got it thump in the thump thump thumb right and then grip it and go in and and hit it two hands boom one two come on same again do the same on all three i didn’t do what you said i didn’t use I didn’t do the towel left hand only left hand only left hand no left hand first feel two thumps thump thump not quite thumps are they they brush it there you go there you go and again go on and one good right and off you go two right get into it trigger where you want it to land one two oh wow okay same again left hand only one two oh Donnie blew it i was just going to say why did that Why did that happen well they quit i was trying to help it he quit he kind of quit on it didn’t th say well you got your consistency up didn’t we we got those two obviously better than the other time okay right now we take it up another notch this is proper stuff now now I’m going to teach you how to visualize all right so this is really important so you will stand here and you will see the ball fly see see it land it runs towards the flag it hits the flag you hear it go ding yeah in your mind ding and goes in the hole okay that’s all you got to do you So you see it you just quietly on your own flight lance hit the pin in you’re going to walk up and give it just one of them stand up and do it okay you got it that’s your new sequence so Oh my god all right same again next one do all three of them that much discipline and And come back here and see it fly land before come on keep it going yep okay it’s a little better again isn’t it yeah so then the next part that was very good it’s hard work ain’t it all that thinking yeah it’s a lot of adapting but yeah you’re doing you’re doing really straight away the results so then the next thing this left thumb is so important to wherever you want the golf ball to go send your left thumb send your left thumb okay look so if I want to go down because where if your left thumb stops your right hand takes over and that’s what happens doesn’t it you see people there but if you keep your left thumb going so if I want to land the ball right on there I when I go through I keep my left thumb look at that see pointing where I want it to go if I want my golf ball to go to that next ball i got to keep my thumb going to the next ball am I Look wow it’s got to keep going can’t do it and if I want to keep going even further look then I got to send my left thumb all the way to it try that one for three just look i know you have won six majors but it just looks so natural to you the I mean I suppose you’ve played a bit haven’t you i I’ve been I’ve been practicing since yesterday i know this I I find this obviously it’s you’re doing well you know that’s Yeah I’ve done this tens of millions of time no exaggeration but try that so just your number one so forget everything your number one goal is point that you got all those balls to aim at now you just have a practice swing where am I aiming synick first ball first ball you’re going to you’re going to make your left just point your left thumb to finish it’s got to finish there so that’s all you lacked on these ones you didn’t keep going with your thumb okay so you look at that ball and think well but like I said before your thumb’s got to be pointing at it for the blooming thing to go there got you so do a pract do a rehearsal and your left two hand you do two hands now squeeze the left thumb you got the pressure so when you finish that left thumb’s pointing at that ball go on one two just go one nice and relax there you go pressure should be there so that should be good all right have a keep a have another look at the where you want it to land very important send the brain send the message right now point the thumb a little bit more oomph we learn go and feel it our mind is so clever isn’t it one two you know the mind is brilliant look how do you how do we get a ball and land it there how do we pick that up and land it there how does he know get me yeah so trust it so you look at it and go “Boom i’m going there.” Just tell it tell the thumb he wants me to see it this ball onto that ball tell your thumb it’s going this fella knows what to do you’re going over there it’s blooming clever right so left thumb pointed at that that’s your goal stay connected thump one two one two now you’re just You’re just too soft come on bit all right now go to the next one that next ball in the middle of the green so what do you got to do you got to feel it okay you got to feel it so go again boom boom one two oh that’s better isn’t it just Just a little shy each time you just got to trust right go go to that next ball the third one down what’s that 20 third one down 20 yards through the air come on say right 20 yards through the air 20 yards through the air very good yes let’s get it it’s right and then and then that fireball so what’s that 30 odd you can even say 3030 to give you a clue that’s more than 10 10 come on go on 3030 what you got to do keep that thumb going do the old one two keep it going one excellent look at that oh so Nick that’s a joke mate so I used to do that so I would even So when I would on the I even pace that out so I’d even walk this one eight right so I’d even say to I’d have my own so I know it’s I need 88 i don’t need 3030 softly do I no um so you hit always hit to the Yeah to the max of what that gives me a clue that I know that if I go 22 the golf ball goes there you know what I’m saying if my hands move but not two inches it’s my little code my little measurement get me yeah so if my I used to do a so much of I used to watch this thumb as well so if that goes about four and through four the golf ball’s going to go a certain distance isn’t it if I go 3030 so you can it’s just to help you visualize rather than Yeah exactly as you did you can either say this is 30 yards away so I need a swing that’s 3030 get me yeah or or I need a swing that’s 44 or I need a I need a 4040 four coming through scott in the camera yeah that’s what you do that’s the next part of chipping is distance control isn’t it yeah you know got one but you’ve got to get your technique right which you’ve done really well on i mean I’ve bombarded you and then next thing you then start to learn is distance control but you’ve But again wherever this This has to go where you want it to go if I want to whack it in that bloody golf cart I’ve got to finish pointing at the golf cart haven’t I get me yeah absolutely and and Nick would it be is it exactly the same technique for if it’s on this if it’s on this slide to obviously a more friendlier life when you’re learning master the technique and if you need something different change the club right so that’s the next lesson how long we got we just had a message from your people we’ve got 5 minutes left all right so I’m gutted cuz I absolutely love this but Okay so this will help you again this is this is this will really take your chipping up a a notch as well okay so this this will help you understand the next part of it i feel bad you getting the balls mate you shouldn’t be doing that let me get them all right i’ve done it for done it enough times all right right right come on this is cool so the next thing to learn understand is what each club will do so I learned from I copied a guy Japanese golfer called Isao Aoki fantastic chip with the ball and all he did so imagine we got pins in different distances across the green okay but start well to learn all you want to do is land it you want to keep looking so let me explain let me explain one two three four five one two three four five all right this is literally surreal she’s unbelievable right that’s pins get me yep so the trick is that’s very difficult to judge where to when you’re looking at longer shots very difficult to judge where you want to land it plus if you mishit it and it doesn’t land on the spot that’s when you end up 20 ft away instead of trying to get it to 3 4 feet right so I watched him and all he did was look at the one yard on the green so obviously if you’re going to a short pin you need loft okay so you all you got this is back to your stone we’re back to our bog standard chip shot same thing but we like I was teaching you you’re going to if you land it on that thing the ball will roll a certain distance all right so pitching wedge goes that far okay that landed right on the spot didn’t that so if I take an A time and land it right on the spot obviously I’ve got less less loft look land it on the spot it is going to go further and it’s exactly the old one the one two the one two everything everything’s the same and then you go all the way to a six i we used to you know when you play on a Lynx course or anywhere you know you you’re pinned way up the back of the green up a hill see if I land it on my spot and I know same thing one two one two on the spot it runs up the bloody back of the green so I’ve done exactly the same shot with different club loft landing it in the same spot and I get all those lovely different results and that’s just where the different Absolutely okay so you practice that because all I’m practicing is lovely little mechanics lovely little strike land it on the spot and then you learn how much it runs that’s practice isn’t it of course that comes with your practice when you go to some courses and it’s downhill Yeah or uphill fast green slow green but but it takes the pressure off you know I watched it on TV and I could tell even a pro will mish hit a pit shot you know he’s trying to land it right up the back of the green he takes his 60° out these kids and they pros usually over strike it you know they put too much spin on yeah yeah they get a little late and he comes up 20 20 foot short well that was his chance to lose the tournament he took it and I always say old school get the get the six the six eye yeah if you mishit this is the reason why you do this i can hit this a bit thin look and I’ll cut it and I’ll get away with it and I can hit it a bit fat and you know not quite as bad as that but you know what I’m saying i can mis hit it and still get away with it so when when it’s on a lie like this on this sort of situation should always use a higher club for you know if you’re a mid- handicapper like myself instead of trying to play the one we’ve been playing there well because I just like you said that’s you’re doing exactly the same shot but you’ve got more chance there’s less error well try it try and land your but it’s awkward okay it’s difficult to you know to take a 60 60 well you know hopefully I can do it cuz I want know you know I can yeah i mean look I mis hit that and it’s going to run and blah blah blah blah but it’s a great way of getting the number one thing about this game is you you want to be in control of the strike if you can control the strike you’ll control your result all right so I’m going to try off this line yeah you can try sure there are times when you’ve got to learn to carry it certain distances sure you might be going over a bunkin you got to land it all the way to the So I’m going for that Hana sign go to the Hvlana sign gone all right across the green then so now point your left thumb in do a practice swing feel the practice right feel where your left thumb’s going strike the ground come on thump the ground and go all the way to the sign right very good good guess right give it a go one two brilliant very good you’re learning wow that’s amazing it’s fun and when you get really good you put markers out at you know 30 35 40 i used to do I put lines out well we went we went actually right down to the yard we put a ball every single blooming yard from like 2 yards off the green to 120 yards and then you really learn feel you try hitting one 99 and then try and hit one 100 then try and hit one 101 but if you can do it within five yards get mate that’s really good practice for you amazing get 50 yards 55 60 and then that you have to come back for that Nessa that for the next lesson let me come back cuz that what I’ve just learned after Luckily you got it on film because that was that was tons to take in but that was amazing but start it’s a bit like drummers isn’t it you got to be able to do your your rudiments before you can start and we’re the same if you get good at you get good at that yeah so even that is now play with it start with a tiny tap with no remember it’s a nail not a golf club look at that and let you do that and then and this one is this yeah paint brush absolutely and send me a video of and what your shortest one is we used to go quite we used to have a competition like yes this you go you’d have a one yard chip and can you and can you Oh that was nearly really really really see if I can beat you just to end end the video and end that unbelievable video yeah i even let you have a good life have a good life right you watch is going to knock the te the only time I ever beat you in anything golf related i got to talk you out of it you can’t beat me be embarrassing oh blimey pole we’re ending on that so Nick Faldo you’re an absolute legend thank you so so much you can You’re the master of that very few Seriously you are in the top 1% for that one i can promise you thank you so much very few people can do that absolutely legend i’m absolutely master that what a legend right off to practice
