Hello ladies and gentlemen I’m Jimmy with tropican golf it’s Friday the weekend is here The Weekend Warriors you’re getting out to the golf course and you’re going to shoot 120 and go home and go why am I doing this well I have a little tip for you and something
That I just watched happen from an amateur golfer who came out and was going to play a great round and then this happened and he couldn’t get out of it so I’m going to share with you and I’m going to share it with him flat tire Rick this one’s for you check it
Out coming up Soon okay so as you know there’s all kinds of different things that make up the golf site from your hands to your feet to your knees to your head it’s a whole thing but this particular thing is very important and if you have one thing
To think about that’s what I like to do I like one thought I do not like shifting to my right then shallow then get your head behind the ball if you more than one thing you’re not going to be able to do it your brain cannot do all those things that quickly it’s
Impossible one thing I think it works okay so the one thing about the golf swing is that it needs to be wide wide on this side and wide on this side wide you ask well listen if you get in here and suck it in that’s no longer
Wide that leads to over the top terrible if you are narrow on this side this is a slice or a hook if you somehow can pull that off width is the best so if you have one thing to think about think about going back and getting width and when you come
Through get whip that’s easy what my buddy flat tire was doing was he was lifting the club what I mean is he’d get here and go like this there’s no width here look at this I can touch the club head now watch this no chance width and width that’s it think
Of this one thing forget about everything else don’t forget about it but don’t think about it how about that it’s width and width I’m going to play a hole like I always do to show you that this works this is a par five up the hill
Very long it’s cold Ball’s not flying we need width width the longer you can make the club the more speed it’ll generate going through the ball so remember wide and wide not narrow not narrow get it out here wide like a kid on what a swing at
The park that thing goes all the way back and all the way through it never gets in here and then swings up here it’s wide it’s a wide swing got it let’s try it 500 yard up the hill walk wide wide wide on both Sides that’s a bullet right from Japan it’s a good shot so all I was thinking there was wide width wide width wide width that will help you now I’m going to show you how to do it with your irons as well and this goes back to the one thought
Principle it is extremely important not to clutter your brain with that being said there are videos and I think that’s why this is so confusing they teach you nine things in one video you’re like wa wait a minute imagine if I gave you directions and I said stay on this
Road and make a right when it ends you’d be like done but what if I said go 300 yards make a left then make a quick right you’re going to get onto the Main Street make another left make a U-turn make you’re whoa whoa whoa whoa I don’t
Want to go anymore so make it simple okay make it simple one thought to me this is a good thought right now and it works because it is doing what you need the swing to do in get with now there are other thoughts that I have implemented depending on the day this is
A very good one that fixes a lot of things you don’t want to slice the ball you won’t here’s my ball looks like somebody drove a big rig through here that’s nice okay so I’m you know very far away 250 some odd yards so I’m going
To take an iron hit it up there but first I’m going to walk through this with you because I want you to see what it looks like with an iron I’m going to turn this way as if I was hitting up there but really I’m going to hit over there
Okay ball position first okay you’re here now I’m not going to teach you all this stuff because I just said only one thing so here I’m lined up width width not here or here this is the chicken wing it’s terrible width width okay I get to the ball and all I think
About is width width dead straight and I hammered it hammered it that’s very very good I like that I like that idea I like that way of thinking that it’s only one thing width and width Okay so we’ve hit two shots they work great let’s see about finishing it
Now we have one more wedge in I picked a par five so that you could see multiple shots a t- shot a fairway shot and now a wedge shot I don’t think there’s anything in golf that needs to be narrow or tucked in I think you want width you want to generate
Speed so that when you hit the ball it just goes through now also when you think about width it prevents you from stopping at the ball or decelerating because your main goal there’s my ball your main goal is to what get width so you’re not going to
Stop at the ball now I have a little wedge up there I’m going to use a 69 degree wedge CU that’s my favorite club and that’s what I use so I have less than 100 yards probably 75 it’s uphill but I don’t want to do anything
Different I want to get here I want to get width and on this side get width width width width width okay let’s try it get to the ball widen it out here we go width and width okay it didn’t get get all the way there it’s a little short am I upset
About it nah try to put this divot back in here if you can ever put your divot back do it this one’s hammered but it’s going to be better than the sand I guess stomp it back in there and we’re good so the ball I mean the the hole is uphill so I
Had to hit a little harder whatever that’s not the point of this the point of the story is I made good contact and I hit a straight shot which is what you want to do every time so let’s finish this up with a putter try to make a a par here if you
Notice I didn’t have to hit any risky shots anything difficult I kept it on The Fairway kept it going straight and that is very important for weekend golfers get out of the trees my friends there’s nothing good in the trees let’s see what we can see here so my
Ball was there oh this will be good you can see it from here as you can see I have an uphill Putt and it’s going to break this way it’s my favorite part of putting and I don’t have to make it I’m not going to make this in fact I I
There’s no chance it’s far it’s uphill you’re putting through a little bit of Fairway here we go I draw a circle a 3-ft circle around the hole I fill it with water I bring in some friends and some girls and bikinis now I have a Jacuzzi here I throw in a bunch of
Miller High Life now we have a Jacuzzi party here I come walking in which is my ball I’m not going to jump into the jacuzzi I’m going to just step in lightly into this jacuzzi don’t make a splash what that means is don’t Hammer your ball through the jacuzzi let it
Just kind of make an appearance hello hello just in here somewhere so you can tap it in for par I get to the ball I’ve already made my read I know how far it is if I had to throw it up there I would do this I’m just going to
Hit it into the jacuzzi just a little jacuzzi party just a little jacuzzi party get in the jacuzzi my friend get in the jacuzzi hey everybody welcome I have my toe in I have my big toe in the water I have a twoof foot putt uphill it’s exactly what I want no
Downhillers now I step to the ball I keep my head down and I follow the ball with the putter head we can go easy par easy par well done width and width so this weekend when you go out today tomorrow whenever it is that you’re going I want you to
Try that and I want your report back to me because I know it works because I just did it okay remember wi W DT width make it big on this side make it big on this side width okay have a great weekend

Jimmy today I played 18 holes from the blue tees and sahot 76 using your swing and chipping methods only. Fantastic and very easy to do and I am 76 years old.
Thank you for all the info. A big hello to Manolo as well.

Jimmy Mac see if you can invest in a "tracer" so the viewers can see your perfect ball flight!
Hi what happened to the hogan thought arms attached half way back and half way through
Tropicana being a trailblazer! I really appreciate the info!!…God bless.
Shot tracer!
Great advice jimmy only u have to b careful that by thinking width u don’t move off the ball
I 3 years in I’m skeptical about who I take advice from Jimmy has a down to earth look a golf love the advice and tips I wish I could get a round in
Another great Trevino tip.
It's 18* F (freedom degrees) with spitting snow here and it ain't gonna get any better than this for awhile. I can't wait to implement the pearls of wisdom that you've dispersed amongst us. Thank you, sir, and warmest regards to you compadre, the one…the only…Manolo!
We can see the ball, as ive said before no shot tracer, this is real golf folks sprinkled with great tips 👍 keep on jimmy.
the champagne of beers
Two wrongs don’t make a right but three lefts do! lol 🤔 Great video! I needed that.
Jimmy, personally I’m very thankful to have came across your channel a month ago 🙏🏿. Slowly I’m rebooting my golf swing, and my consistency with long clubs has improved immensely 🏌🏿. First tournament of the year less than 3 weeks away, keep the valuable content coming, appreciate you from NC ✌🏿.
😅 I'm picturing a Jacuzzi now every time I chip onto the green !! And this width tip is so true!! 👌 any chance you can talk about the wrist left and right in the golf swing thanks
Crazy that driver is my worst club. Will definitely keep this in mind🤜
I just found your channel earlier this week. I just wanted to encourage you and tell you how much I appreciate your style of teaching. Its right to the point and makes sense. The one you did where you teed off with a 60 to make a point about laying up and not going for everything got me to change how I think about my game. I'm playing 18 tomorrow and I'm going to watch both of these videos before I go.
Wide cheese pizza
Texas weather looking bad for a bit. Can’t wait to put this to use. Who told you I shot 120 Perro!? Thanks Trops!
Found your channel and loving it
Always love your style of play and the way you choose your clubs on the hole. Thanks for sharing your wonderful tips!
Continued great instruction!
K. I. S. S. = Keep It Simple Stupid!
Jimmy, Here in Florida with Bermuda grass they tell us to not replace the divot as it won’t take and grow, but will die. They want us at our course to fill in with sand. Sounded weird to me. I don’t know what type of grass you have on your course. Maybe there In California they want you to replace divots. By the way, you are in a way promoting your home course. All of us fans of you see the course conditions. Why don’t they take better care of the fairways? They always look horrible. What do you usually pay to play there?
Hey Jimmy!! I love your channel, it is very refreshing and inspiring for my golf game. I found your channel watching you and Manolo play golf. Remember, golf is never 100%. Keep it in play, those are your words btw. Thank you Jimmy.
This is something I have struggled with mightily as of late. I’ll give it a go
I see you're playing the 6.9. Coincidentally, I purchased the same yesterday.
