Hahaha! "Yes, i did just hit the sand, and yes it would be a penalty!" 😀 Always pre-empting the audience "insights"! Love it James. Such a good video. The thought process, pros/cons evaluation and talking about the course conditions. All so helpful. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. Very helpful and thoughtful instruction. As a high handicapper lucky enough to play regular links golf there's a lot here for me to think on and practice. Great stuff!😊

Hi James. Loving all your short game instruction vids. The more I see the more I realise how much work I need to put in or I could just hit and hope. Regards. Really, really loving them. ❤

Fascinating, I'm constantly amazed at all the different shots you could have in your arsenal after a lot of practice. Nice bump and run 😂

Impossible to have a toolbox too big, just have to select shots well. 😂 Made up for the first effort!

Learned a few things there thanks. It's funny though, practicing all the time on links turf I never consider a tight lie to be anything other than normal :)

Thanks Stephen, West Lancs is now a firm favourite for me, jealous of every member there!

Thanks James. Two questions When you have a firm very tight lie and you are using your 58 or 60 to get some height what adjustments do you make to help ensure a solid strike using the 1. Spin face toe down option And 2. Spin face using the toe up option. In that situation do you use a little cut feel to keep the heel from digging Thanks Paul

What loft club should I use in bunker that’s pure sand. Used a 56 yesterday. It worked

On holiday right now (which is nice) with no access to golf and itching to play a good links course. Torture watching this great video 🤣👍🏻

Falling back in love with links golf (which I grew up on), maybe a links golf tour can be your next holiday!

What’s your grip,pressure when chipping on a scale from 1-10, 10 a death grip?

Really great video thanks! Curious - 8802 putter? Also, with 7 iron your swing pretty much a “baseline” type swing taking a little loft off - is that correct? Again thanks.

I like the fact you were embarrassed to hole the bump and run and stress it was not the % play. Ball was down in that collection area again if it missed. Great shot though, it looked in the moment it came off the bat.

6ft by at worst! Might not have been the percentage play for me but could be for someone else

You didn’t mention using low-lofted hybrid or iron or fairway wood as an alternative to long putts or long chips with 8i/7i, would that be a bad option?

@JamesRidyardGolf Жыл бұрын

Absolutely is an option, very effective too with practice

It's all well and good having informative, intelligent and pragmatic content, however, this is not a even close to being a proper KZfaq video at all. Not even close. Where's the CGI'd ball and "it's going in" on every single shot? Where's the whooping and shrieking? In the absence of this, I suppose I'll have to make do with a better short game. Tch...
