Thanks Zach - I've had the wheels fall off mid round and at the end and it's horrible! I will DEFINITELY try this tip - it makes a lot of sense. thank you very much 🎉

Love your putting stroke

Enjoyed your video and commentating as you played. And I am consistently in the 80's because of 2-3 bad holes. You have a beautiful golf swing that reminds me of the pros on tv. I'm going to continue watching your videos and hopefully I will learn something from it.

Enjoyed watching this and your game looks good. With the Wedges and short irons your tempo is excellent, and once you can do the same with Driver and 3 wood your game will really take off. Your tempo and transition with the longer clubs was just a hair quick like you said, and once it matches up to your shirt iron tempo you will shave another 3-4 strokes off your game. Great job!

Zach, enjoyed the video. I'm one of your How to read The Golfing Machine book purchasers so feel I owe you a comment, hope you don't mind. Any student I've had at your level fits into one of my 90% rules, i.e 90% chance set up needs attention!!! In your case looks like your wt. drifts forward toward your toes before takeaway. I find over the arches is best. Keep the faith. Rob

Hey Zach, thanks for the tip and a great video! I took your advice and bought the book right after I finished your video!

Can’t relate to your distance ; just turned 73 and when I hit a good straight 7 iron it goes maybe 145 that said your tip absolutely makes sense; I do it with pitch shots and some putts but I should do it on all shots; when you are a short hitter it’s very difficult to break 80 btw

So close to breaking 80 myself. Had multiple rounds in a row with 80, lipped out on 18 for a 79. Last weekend shot 38 on the front then blew up the back. Always appreciate these kinds of videos as a 12 handicap haha.

Hey Zach. Great to watch a whole round including all the times you find yourself in the rough and see the strokes you use to recover. Yesterday I had a round of pars and bogies with four 8's thrown in! I was pretty hot with some shots and then "BOOF", off it goes into the rough or the water, never to be seen again! The problem. MY problem is that I never know which shot is coming next. Something a Pro would be happy with, or something that costs 3 strokes. I shoot 108 and then next day 89. Worst ever and best ever in consecutive games. I do the verbal thing out loud, always have and as my scores suggest, sometimes it works but consistency? Nah. Not yet. I can only play 2 or 3 times a week so what do you suggest in terms of practice? Cheers from New Zealand ( The Golfer's Paradise).

Great advise

When you get it going, never stop. That is my key. Bypass the turn and definitely the bar.

the course looks pure for public. Greens seem to be rolling as true as anyone can ask.. Nice work out there!

Whenever I broke 80, driving and par 3's had to be solid, short game was also key when I missed the green and more birdies than bogies.

Good thought on shot visuals. Poor course condition you played it well

I had also never really heard the verbalize part. I “figured it out” on my drives and find that if I verbalize where I want to hit it, it usually heads that way….and the opposite if I forget.

Hole 12... On the putting green.... If I was over that putt I would only focus on the two ball marks within a foot of the ball 😕

Is this Majestic Springs around Wilmington OH?

How far did he hit his 3wd on hole 9 at 6:21

So , yeah …sort of opposite for me …i may have a good first hole and maybe a couple great shots on next…then itll all go to shit till im near the end and some shots come back more and more… also i once was trying to break 90 ,many years back (decades) …now im wishfull to get there again but first have to break 100 after i break 110 lol…

good tip, but very difficult to do. hard to make yourself believe in the next shot when 20 in a row went sour. but good advice anyway

Can some confirm how far he hit his 3iron at 1:15 🤷🏽‍♂️

what was that tip?

Easy chip well Putt well that’s how you break 80 everybody has their own swing style and you don’t really have to change that. Just learn the short game.

Was on track for a 78 a couple of days ago at a very challenging course. Double bogeyed 18 for an 80. Sighhhh

Lol more like I’m tapping in for 110+ after 18 😂 I need HELP

Build your endurance via biking/walking/running Dont drink during your round Make sure you are EATING during your round This can do wonders for not getting fatigued mid-round.

Ok, hole 12.... You hit a 284 yard 3iron??????

To hell with besting 80. Shining at the local Fat-Shot Tourney matters more than chasing something that ain't gonna happen. Crispy shots with a proper stroke incur a penalty; moving the ball requires what comes natural -- hitting the ball fat, laying sod over the ball. It is difficult to embrace one's personal ineptitude but to win at shi^^y golf that's what is demanded.

id be stoked to break 90....

6th round in 5 years? You must have been a helluva golfer in college, your 'rusty' game is better than most peoples good game.

18 is too many holes 11 holes would be perfect. Gets boring out there.

A waste of time watching this video. Learned nothing. What is your tip.
