I remember when I took my daughter out to the driving range. She was 5 at the time and hit the ball like it was a hockey stick. It was frustrating for both of us when I tried to teach her. She quit. A few months later she wanted to try again. After trying she just dropped her club and asked if I could get her a teacher. One year later she’s still going at it and improving each week. She’s done camps and doing Operation 36 as well. As Adam says it’s about having fun. I reward her chips and stuff each time. We also play some games like who can putt it closest to the hole during practice.

I tried to explain the “it has to be fun for them” concept to a parent. His facial expression tells me he won’t be giving me a call to teach his son. Everybody wants their kid to be Tiger Woods. But they miss the whole point of his upbringing. He played golf because it was fun times with Dad. His entire base for golf knowledge are just heartwarming stories of him and his dad.

Thanks for another great video! Thanks for listening too. This is exactly what I asked for about 2 weeks back. And since then, my son Teo and I have been getting out in the Electric Yamaha Golf Carts, and that alone has raised his interest level several notches! We played 4 holes this afternoon in the Cart, and he went Bogey, Bogey, Quad Bogey (Long Par 5), and Double Bogey. Very good golf from a 7.5 year old! ... And another massive thanks to you, I went Bogey, Bogey, Par (on Par 5), and Par. +2 over 4 holes... Just 3-4 months ago, without your help, that would have been +7, roughly!... Thanks again, from Simon & Teo, down at The Sands, Torquay, Australia.

Great tips! One question: I’ve started taking my 4 year old twins with me to the golf course and they have some appropriately sized clubs (top flite driver, iron and putter). Usually I let them hit a few, then I hit a few, then we go to the practice green. They LOVE the green and putting around. Is there really anything else I need to be doing right now or just keep it light and fun so they associate the golf course with that: fun?

@timmansfield3935 7 ай бұрын

About time that golf teachers started offering the complete alternative swing style / system of Bryson DeChambeau. Most normal humans just can’t or have the time to master the traditional lower hand multi plane traditional system. Whilst juniors can naturaly generate speed older golfers are better off sacrificing some distance for more accuracy to enjoy and compete.

Sorry you didn't like the video. As I mentioned during the video, if they don't associate time at the course with fun they rarely stick with it. At a young age almost no kids see consistent success hitting the ball, so without elements of fun they lose interest quickly. Best, Adam
