Part 2 and 3 coming tomorrow and day after The best golf rangefinder for the money: L6 RANGEFINDER DISCOUNT voicecaddie.com/l6-golf-sidekick/

Back to back days of uploads, the Head Playa has blessed us this weekend.

The best tip I ever had was to stop trying to crush everything and let the clubs do the work. I’m a bigger guy, 6’4, 240, so I thought I had to be the guy that hit everything long and high. It was killing my swing. Slowing down and hitting through the ball with more touch helped me out tremendously

I'm about 8 months into my golf career and I think Golf Sidekick is the only golf channel I'll watch going forward. No more focusing on a thousand tiny swing details. Time to learn the actual gameplay philosophy and get those scores down!

My best swing tips have always come from teaching pros, not from other players. I love how Matt only talks about course management and never swing tips. Matt's tip about embracing the bad shot is spot on, because you will hit some bad shots every round. Every time I go to the range I always make sure to practise some punch shots because I do get into to trouble and hitting a great hook punch shot out of trouble is a delight.

This guy is the Bob Ross of Golf!

Matt, you are a professional golfer, I think. You don’t play on the tour, but you produce these videos from all over the world! Your travels all over the world would seem to preclude a regular job. Please know that I very much enjoy the videos that you produce, and I find them helpful and thoughtful.

I’ve been flowing Matt’s channel for a while now. Love how calm and collected you are. You’re tips are explained in a simple fun manner. You understand and cater for all of us golfers. Even a hacker like me lol. Keep up the great work Matt. 👊🏻

I love this channel, Matt. Your style really speaks to me. Huge focus on course management & sports psychology. Good vibes and no stupid BS. I watch your videos and I get really excited to keep learning my game through practice. -Joe (18HC, playing for 1.5 years)

The best tip Matt's ever passed along, in my opinion, is NEVER count your score during a round. That has has helped me to stay in my next shot and easily shaved 4-6 strokes from my rounds.

Love this series. Mental game and course management is the way.

As a grown man I feel no shame squealing for joy when I get the new video notification boyfriend. I typically plan my day around it.

Trying to break 100, par as a social concept and adjusting is ur best tip. And now I walk never cart. Dropped 12 shots in past few weeks

Love love love this positivity!!!! So glad I found this gem!! Thanks Matt

The best tip I ever got was from a bucket hat, colourful polo wearing baus that said ‘subscribe to this channel’. He has improved my playa mental game to consistently score under 100 when I play. 👍🏼

This is such a great channel, no fluff, no over editing, just golf made simple

Love the back to back content!

Great content! Exactly what I needed today. Back to back days of new zen Golf Sidekick.

One of your best yet brother! Loving the content and learnings…

Love this video Matt! I Watch it before club competitions so I can unleash ‘the way of the player’. Thank you

Loving the more frequent content

Thank you, Golf Psychic... ⛳️ 🙏🧞‍♂️

Thanks Matt, I needed a refresher. I’m teeing off in a couple hours, I feel good about today.

After a 20 year golf layoff i started again this year in march. i dropped from a 30 hc to a 24.3 hc. your add 1 shot to each par is one of the best tips ive gotten. thanks matt. cold here in RSA.

Great job explaining the mindset of a good golfer! Thanks!

This is the one! The Cliff Notes for the past few years. This is definitely going on the watch again list 🙌🏼

Absolutely love your reasoning, and your low voice that talks us out of trying to be a hero.

Props to the caddie, excellent camerawork.

Fantastic advise! After watching a few of your videos, I shot my best 9 holes ever! Thank you very much for helping me and my golf game.

Absolutely the most helpful and relatable content, thanks Matt. I shot below 90 for only the 2nd time and off the back of your content. Over thinking, stressing are no good, inner peace for the inner playa, has helped me find my whataplaya zen moments. Most enjoyable golf I've played and also the simplest, lay up for easy wedges in my wheel house and watching those scores drop.

Have FUN!!

I'm really enjoying your videos. Can't wait to get out on the course and practice your course management and mind-set tips. Playa!

Great tips. Thanks for sharing!!

Best tip? The harder you grip the club the less control you have over your ball flight. Arm tension is a killer for me. This was a master class in course management. Loved your take, “Reject what is bad and harness what is good.” Deep philosophy Matty Boom Boom.

It's funny I never even think off the tee box affecting your shot. The fact that elephants walk on that course is amazing

Keep it simple like life. Very true.

These videos you are the Bob Ross of golf…

Thanks Matty, another great video and a new way to hit a birdie at 6:46 😮. That one is called the Randy Johnson approach shot. See you in the next one Playa

Thanks for taking a chunk out of my workday :D

Great video bro. So many key concepts people should be thinking about. So much not said in other videos

WOW, great video. Love it!

Baus Matt = Bob Ross of golf. Thank you... Waddalife playing IDGAF low stress..

Love the vids with you talking and prefer them to the voice over videos. Keep them coming playa

Many, many thanks for the videos that you provide for us. What a wonderful experience playing a round of golf with another of your followers. The discussions and questions were more of strategy than "Can I get there with a 3 wood?". I think we both hit more 6 Irons than ever before in one round.

Best tip “play within yourself” know your limitations and play within them. Still working on that I forget on the course. Making stupid mistakes.

Decision making is my favorite part of golf...I went from averaging 100-105 to 90-95 within about a month from being more aware of actually playing the game & not just hitting golf balls where I think they should go... One thing that helped put importance on decision making was play with a smaller number of clubs. For instance, if i had 2 irons with a 25 yard gap that were the "wrong" distance for my approach shot, it was easier to shift my brain from "what's the right distance?" to "what's the right shot?" AKA do I want to favor the front of the green & deal with a wide open chip shot? Or do I want to favor the back of the green because there are some nasty greenside bunkers I need to carry? Or maybe it's wide open to the green & I can try a long bump n run. After the decision is made its just about making good contact & hitting a good ball. You're not thinking about the possibilities of what could happen while swinging because you've already made a decision in confidence.

Best golf tip I got was from you actually: give yourself 10 seconds to be mad at a bad shot then you get over it and think of the next shot, no dwelling on past shots only thinking of the next ones. It’s great advice for a high handicapper like me who hits lots of bad ones a round

I feel like in all my years of golf your strategy vidoes like this have done more good for my game then any swing coaching. Without practicing at a driving Range because I have always been a decent ball striker I could play scratch or better following your tips

A couple weeks ago was playing, one of the holes can be driven, however, danger to the left, danger to the right, danger in front, and go too far and you are in the parking lot. Myself and one other in the 4 some took out a comfortable iron and laid up to a good distance to set up our second shots. The other two decided to go for it. The two of us that laid up made par and the two that went for it got bogeys. Best advice was to play my game not someone else's.

Great video Matt! I can't stop laughing at your brilliant dry witt jokes mate👌... Dance with the munter you brought instead of wishing you brought paige 😂. Superb. 👍

Your videos are amazing, Great style..... as a HIGH Handicapper 33 - i try to learn mindset and relax.. and know that im going to miss a lot...... but stay calm. Hope i can play with you in Spain onetime ;-) Madrid. Amazing style your videos.

I have a tip that helped me to +11 over on a pitch n p course : say out loud where on the green youre aimimg for any why! If you get it within 1-3m it's really confidencd boosting, if you domt, it doesn't matter but by articulating it it makes you think consciously about sthg you can control and removes thinkjng about swing!

The sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit.

"Detach from the goal to get the goal!" Love the quote Playa!!!

This is a book I would buy!

Just what I needed

The best golf tip I've ever gotten was from GSK. You used to hammer home the notion of practicing short game and putting. It's helped immensely with my confidence over chips. That and, you're supposed to suck. As I'm typing I've come up with four more....the list seems endless.

Hey playa will there be another release of the avocado and lemon shirts? I missed out on them :( love the way of the playa you’re helping my game so much, stress free easy life playa!

Hi Matt, can't thank you enough for your 'Way of Golf'. This gives me a completely different view to this wonderful Hobby. Now I will try to became a Player! Aged 67 there is time for a restart with your philosophy. Greetings from Berlin, Germany Steffen

Best golf instructor ever. I've been playing boggy, stressed golf... Matt reminds us to keep the round enjoyable, to play the right shot...and relax and enjoy. Thank you, Matt. Luv ya, bro-ski!

Traffic light system for approach shots. Not much trouble means greenlight go for it. Lots of trouble redlight, play the safe shot.

The best golf tip I ever was given…. Remember kid it’s not how, it’s how many!

Playing Sunday - I'm going to break 100 -thanks for your advice and inspooooration mate.

Best golf tip I ever got was from the way of the playa, not letting the bad shots ruin my game. I find myself out on the course hearing Matty Boom Boom's voice and it calms me down. I am not consistently breaking 100 (need a little more consistent ball striking) but hitting a slight baby draw 7 iron to 10ft from the pin after a bad tee shot and nice second to set me up...felt like a baus! P.S. CONSTANTLY playing my shots away from trouble and just getting it on the green has really transformed my game. P.P.S. The buckets really did take 5 strokes off my game ;)

Love the Glengarry Genross reference. One of my favorite movies.

Great timing for a video called golf 101 because that's exactly what I shot today.

It'd take a hell of a decision to beat a hotdog and beer at the turn... :-D It is great advice, though! We weekend hackers overwhelming miss greens short, which comes form assuming we'll hit the number for a club; unless I'm crushing the ball or I need to avoid a hazard, I usually take the distance to the back when picking a club. I also think checking out the PGA Tour site's statistics is great advice. We all need to manage expectations, and seeing how many times pros miss gives us the context to set more reasonable goals and make it easier to forgive ourselves our misses. The Non-negotiable point about knowing how you play when tires/nervous is on the money. I tend to get tired on the back, and it effects my accuracy and my miss moves right; knowing this, I need to stop expecting to hit the shots I hit early int he round.

Love your videos my man!! Come play a few rounds with me in Hanoi, Vietnam!

Elephant prints on the green is not at all what I expected to see in this video but gives me something look forward to if I ever get to play golf in different parts of the world lol

Best golf tip - Get it on the green!

This Chi Chi Rodriguez comment is in line with Matt’s approach to golf. Have a target score to start the round. If even par after a couple of holes and make birdie then lower your target score by one. If even par after a couple of holes and make bogey raise your target score by one. Continue this approach through the round!

Elephant prints? We have a guy like that on our course too. He's a 40 hcp though, and rakes his own bunker mess.

Nice "Elephant print par". Can't say I've ever had one of those! 🤣

Hole 2, I'm curious about the thought process hitting a 60 wedge, as opposed to a PW/9/8 to safely lay up a little closer to the water, to give a better shot at the green.

Matt, the best tip is to practice putting. Putting matters more than anything. I normally shoot between 90-100 on a 6000 yard course; I hit the driver about 200 yards, after that I use no more than a 6 iron or 7 iron even if I am 300 yards out. If I putt well I am in the low 90’s, if not I am around 100. The great philosopher, Dirty Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood), once said, “ a man has got to know his limitations!”

Thumb up. Will watch back from the beach😃

slow mo the shot at 6:49 he almost incinerated that bird lol whaddaplayaaaa

Pull out Matty, always! I think that putt on hole 2 would of went in. 😮

WOW!!! Almost planted an entire BIRD !!! @6:50

As if I didn't already love your content, "Dance with the munter you brought" 😂👌

Wow i live next to this course, will u play again tmr?

I can say that I have never had to deal with elephant tracks on the green, but I think this will be my new excuse for missing a putt.

Forget Booze, Forget Edibles, Forget Hotdogs....LMFAO. This guy is just the best LOLOL

Best tip I have ever received is to not kill the ball, let the club do the work don’t have to swing hard to have the ball go far

Literally can't remember the last time we had elephant trouble on the course here in Wales.

wrecked that 1 iron at 10:50

'Birdie is over, music stops. Next hole is waiting.' I've always enjoyed this little inside thing you do in your videos - after a scoring hole or nice putt/shot then next hole music stops as you make contact. Nice editing.... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a7xgktdkttyvpKc.html

"Go with what's comfortable on the first tee." Hope my PW is ready to be thinned tomorrow!

Best tip You play better when you’re having fun.

Best tip: 5:11 ABP - ALWAYS BE PLANTING it takes feathers to make feathers! Planting now for decent return in the future This is the way of the birdie bank guarantee Sincerely J-Mac Chief coffee officer International birdie bank

I broke 90 playa! It was all about course management and playing to my misses. Looking forward to breaking 80!

I used to say I suck after hitting a bad shot. I had a scratch buddy once say. “You don’t suck, that swing sucked.” Helps me to quickly forget about bad shots.

Elephants are in the buffet at my club 🤣

Routinely when people ask me for advise, they are surprised that it is not a swing tip. It is a aim there tip. Playing and practice are different games. Yes, practice is also a game.

120 yards and in Thats the number one tip Once you understand this yoyr thinking chsnges You then practive more at this than going to Driving Range and smashing balls Develop your shots up to 120 yards and get good at them As soon as you know how to hit the 100 yard shot well you are slapping them on the green all the time. When you find yourself in a bad position the range finder can then be used and you can pick where younput your next shot a certain distance to get back into play and keep out of the bunker etc

Golf course is Khao Yai Country Club, Thailand. Will be going there in 4 weeks or so.

Thanks playa.

Nice fade for the first shot 😂

"GIOTG" important!

That was a glorious first hit with that 1 iron.
