Hi I’m Matt Lockey, welcome to my Coach Lockey YouTube Channel. This YouTube channel is designed to help you play better golf, and to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf course vlogs, golf challenges, golf tips, golf lessons, golf club reviews and the odd golf club unboxing. So pretty much everything golf!
I want to help you play better golf by providing coaching videos on all topics about golf. How to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
As well as helping you produce the best long game you can have, I will help you lower your scores by chipping better, stopping duff and thin chips, pitching the ball closer and creating backspin like the tour pros. Finally, I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts too!

Just having a quick practice, it certainly feels a much smoother and more powerful swing overall.
Let’s see how it goes when I hit the range tomorrow 👍🏼
I actually just started using a drill similar to this. I hinge at an angle and then rotate a little and then go up (curl) with my right arm. I had the tendency to get stuck going too deep in my back swing from my right arm pulling instead of bending.
Really great drill will try it next time I'm on the range!👍
Feels good! At the top and no more swaying. Thanks Coach!
Nice 👍
Another great vid coach 👍
Its new, but makes sence.
Is this the same with driver
WTF was that about ? no thinking then !
Human Robots at the range 🤣
How are your lessons getting on? 🧐
Yes coach, this is exactly what I need! But surely you mean no "Less" than 90°?
Is this a new drill you've just discovered, Coach?
I bet that you look good on the dance floor. Looks like a robot from 1984
I'm going to need to work this one out on the range. It's wild to make that connection, but it makes sense.
