Good tip. I went from a 20 handicap to a 20 handicap with this advice.

I always find a lot of balls on courses with the 3 dots on em. I initially thought the Predator was after me but now I know why.

Cool tip! When my ball is woods, I'll be able to identify it from the other stray balls.

Address the ball... me: "Hello ball"

I now can't stop hitting holes in one!

I have never seen anyone leaned over in front of the ball like that 😂

Excellent tip. I went from a novice weekend warrior with a mild slice to becoming a novice weekend warrior with a mild slice. Muy bien!

Not a bad tip to be fair, I would love to see a video explaining what to do with irons when the ball is above and below your feet, where to position ball and where to aim etc

There are more Golf tips than stars in the sky 😮

Great tip mate, I started doing this late last year made such a difference. More confidence in the setup concentrating more on the shot

My best tip for hitting driver is this: Hit it as far as you can down the fairway. 👍

Thanks for the chuckle!

If I focus on the ball I will top it every time. I have to focus on brushing the turf 8 inches behind the ball.

*This tip got me from a handicap of 27 to scratch in on day !!*

Mate i used your toe in drill to draw my driver as some how after 8 years and a driver change it disappeared. Absolutely brilliant tip and I will be using this to help with consistent launch

Pff, never trust a guy that uses Titleist Tru Feel balls... lol You dont look at the ball, you look at the back of the ball. Best ball striking advice I've ever had.

Or what you can do is put your right hand down your right leg to behind your knee then put your hand onto the golf club. That creates a lot of space and can stop the out to in swing as well as hitting up on the ball having a more draw set up with your shoulders. Then you just need to make sure to stand level (never over exaggerate your stance for draw or ball position) and to keep your chest down while you coil your swing, elbow in and head stable. Then boom, perfect drive. The only difference with irons is put your right hand down behind the thigh in the middle vs your knee and obviously smaller stance and instead of ball at the ankle, 1 ball back for wood, another ball for long irons, another ball back for mid/ short irons, and middle for wedges. To compress, push hands forwards a little when set up like cricket so you hit down on the ball

I'm a 5 handicap and have played 50+ years; and staring at a spot on a golf ball makes no sense to me at all.

I tried this today and it worked so well! I got at least 15/20 yards extra! Brilliant tip I’m subscribing to this Chanel, keep up the good work 👍

Same as a few others, I’ve found balls here and there on the golf course with three dots and wondered why they did that? Now I know. thanks

I’m gonna lean towards taking advice from Nicklaus…maybe Hogan….maybe Watson

I usually find my marked ball the week after 😂in the same shit.

I’m opposite, I have to focus on the leading edge of the ball. Solved alot of my chunky problem.

Why do I find balls marked like this while in the woods looking for mine?

After watching this video, I went from not having seen this video to having seen this video!

Insane help you are very good at these videos still am not great but I hit some shots 250 plus yards in middle of fairway

This is your brain on Sharpies

Cheers mate will give it a try. I took 12 of my handicap so far this year so desperate to try everything to get it lowrr

This is what golf does to your brain 😅😅😅

Save the marker for a coloring book. Just tilt right and touch your right knee with your fingers at address, and then swing

Helped me too. Definitely works for my swing type.

Must say I like how you don't back down to anyone in the comment section, good bloke that.

Scottie has zero spine tilt, and his drive is amazing.

Another way to do this, set up the same way on the ball with it lined up to the heel of your front foot, put your right hand on your hip and slide it down right above your knee bend, and just bring your hand up to the club. Gives you that backwards tilt and feels a little awkward at first but it really worked for me. Try a few other methods of course and see what fits you the best

this helped me to hit driver & ball contact 80% more consistent from my struggle slump. 👍👍👍

How do you like the trufeel balls?

Hi Alex, I already do exactly what your covering here, my query is where is the focal point on around the green chip and runs & flop shots, thanks Philip

Women comes running into the pro shop, "someone help me, I was out on your course and I got stung by a bee!", pro says "Wow, where were you stung?", woman says, "I don't know, somewhere between the 1st and 2nd hole." Pro says, "Lady first of all, I've got to tell you, your stance is way to wide!"

Golf is the only sport with innumerable tips that dont really help anyone

The weight of the dots actually increases draw and lift, as well as ensuring full weight transfer.... I'm graduating to 6 dots and an exclamation point

Spine tilting is catastrophic for one-plane (rotary) swingers, as they don’t need more width. It’s good only for two-plane (upright) swingers, as they need more width. It’s a width-creating move, catastrophic for one set of fundamentals but good for the second. All of this is brilliantly laid out in Jim Hardy’s The Plane Truth book and his following books, along with his 3-part DVD and subsequent Secrets from the Plane Truth Vault series of DVDs.

ive got an old vhs somewhere of me explaining exactly the same thing when i was about 11 haha. filmed around 1990. true story. i will have to find it lol.

Thanks, i was able to hit the ball with your advice.

Good tip for someone who has a problem of coming over the top, but then again with this tip could lead to a reverse pivot. When someone is throwing a ball in cricket or throws pitches in baseball, when someone is hitting a ball in tennis or once again baseball they don't focus on how to hit the ball, everything just happens naturally. Same here, because golf is a slow game, people tend to focus on mechanics. Stop focusing on anything, grip it and rip it!!

Btw hitting up on the ball helps maximize trajectory amd reduce spin making it fly farther

I tee my ball with the mark on the front and I focus on that so I hit thru the center of the ball to the mark

And then go out to the range and practice it about 2,000 times you'll be amazed at how well you hit the ball

My biggest issue with driver is head movement, so this is a helpful cue to keep me focused on staying behind the ball. Thanks

This might work but I have lost count of balls with 3 dots I found in the rough 😊

Do old school saltwater ball balance. Mark high and low spots and join their circumference. Ball stamps and markings bear no relation to ball balance. Works.

Should the cross no longer be visible for the correct spine tilt?

I have seen those dots on balls on the course for years and never knew why :-)

Tilt still doesn’t matter if swing arc and general athleticism are lacking. Most golfers should start by hitting easy 3W’s from tee, grab an extra club for approach shots, and spend as much time at the practice chipping/putting greens as they do trying to hit “bombs”. A “bomb” is meaningless if you constantly three putt or thin every chip.

I would 100% hit it like a sandwedge at this point 😂😂

I collect golf balls from the woods and I’ve definitely seen a lot of golf balls with markings like this lost so idk if it’s working

I’ve been marking the exact same 3 blue dots on my balls since i started playing 4 yrs ago. Thought it was unique to me. Now you’ve SOILED IT. SOILED IT. SOILED IT. Lol

Tried this on friday and sat. Hit drives better and shot a net -5 to finish 3rd in club comp gross +5 best round of the year

Instructions unclear kicked out for graffiti

"If you can nail that tilt shot consistently, the dots might be unnecessary,

Titleist TSR drivers are mint

Cc deactivated lol 😆 great tips with graphics.

*heads to the drawer for a sharpie

I've seen this on some golf balls I've found, I wondered what it meant. Now I know!

I literally hit best when I’m not focus on the anything at all. Just kind of zoning out on the ground with the ball in my vision.

There's a reason why tiger woods takes lessons

"Okay grab yourself your marker pen and about 15 golf balls"*

If you draw 6 dots on the right, you'll hit it twice as far.

What happens if I run out of marker? Well, Sharpie (Newell Brands) is going to spike after this, and run out of inventory

Much easier to just tee the ball with the logo pointing away from the target and look at that 🤷🏼‍♂️ The problem with telling beginners to do this, though, is there are about a million ways to look at the dots from a bad position, and they usually find all million of them 😂 I just have them setup to the Driver with only their lead hand on the club. Once they have their alignment and are in a solid address position, I have them feel the weight 70% on the inside of the trail foot, then add the trail hand to the grip without changing their alignment. This forces them to tilt away properly, and saves markers at the same time 😎

good tip, now when someone finds a marked up ball in the trees, bushes and lakes, they'll know it was mine

I was slicing new driver till leaned back ,need to transfer weight for more distance

Funny I’ve found many golf balls with these 3 dots and always wondered wth they were on the ball for 😂

Instead of this I started setting up about 4 inches or so behind the ball with my driver. I'm very much a novice BUT I hit my drive square every single time in my last round! It's worth trying out everyone!

Why are you rolling a golf ball and a felt tip pen between your thumb and forefinger? Was that some kind of pre-shot drill or were you just glad to see them?

I was a golf coach, this is a good trick

I did this and it is brilliant!

It's hard for me too focus on the dots because I'm focusing on the putter I just broke the hole before and now I have too putt with my pitching wedge but thanks anyway

I tried this and almost hit the ball

Tried this today. Ended up topping so many balls 😢

World beating content right here 😂

Do not do this

I have found balls from time to time with 3 dots on them

ask you opponent if the breath in or out on their back swing.

🤔 is that how I was supposed to use those markings on the found ball I played today (and lost 6 holes in)? I'll get back to you with a 👍🏼 when I try it and it works

What if you dont have a marker?

Why put x on other side just put one mark or turn marking on ball and just look at that .. seems a lot of work to reinvent the wheel

If you want to hit a slice then put that ball on your front foot

Top Golf gets angry when I mark all of their balls like this

Wait a minute….great idea but - you say to move your right foot back….so it appears, using foot-aiming, that you are aimed at forest on right side? Please clarify

does it work same left hander dont laugh at me i am curious

What if you left handed?

Thanks great 👍 tip🏌️‍♂️💥⛳️

Thanks 👍

This will be on your sister channel "Average golfer" very soon!

This is pretty smart tbh

You are not supposed to lean back you’re supposed to tilt your shoulder

I typically just use the logo

Just drop your right shoulder a little and it will have the same effect.

I find balls with these 3 dots in the woods along the right of #1 fairway all the time. - waste of time

TF does this guy think he's talking about????? Please, people. Don't follow this advice.
