Great example of why golf is so annoying/addicting. Practicing basic lil pitch shots from the rough today. This sequence is classic. Two so-so shots. Then out of nowhere I shank the 3rd. Then see what happens on the fourth. Golf. That's golf. So annoying.

Check out Dan Grieve on YouTube - best/easiest short game guy to understand and I've watched just about all of them lol.

I'm currently trying to employ Joe Mayo's technique

Enjoy it. 86-96 golfer here wishing you a good time on the golf course always EB. Be thankful we have the means to play & enjoy golf regularly.

Didn't you hit 2 balls on that third shot? That's what it looks like

I wish! lol

Need to stay tall. Your right hip and knee are moving into the ball which causes the club to kick out to the right which is why you are shanking it. Stay tall, keep your legs long and feel like you’re hitting it off the toe

good tips... easier said than done...but good advice.. i try sometimes to just hold right leg straight.... its hard lol

No doubt you just have to find the right feel

Try not bending your knees. I had the same issue, very inconsistent, lock them out and turn with your hips.

Aren’t you consistently shooting under 80? I feel you are a legit athelete but you are hulble

no... i wish I was... i should be...my short game is holding me back BIG TIME

Your kids are legit athletes. Stop the bit that you are not. 😎

Just practice hitting chip shots on 1 foot

Did the 4th one go in?

yessir

I love it!

Doesn’t call for a lofted shot there. Way too much precision required. With green to work with, opt for a gap or pitching wedge to get the ball on the ground sooner.

sometimes i just barely chip it and let it roll to the pin with a 3 iron from there. beats shanking it

Did you just break your leg

Slow your hands down,your disconnected

I shank it when I grip the club too tight. Thinking “loose hands” before my shots has been a revelation.

That 4th one is the one that keeps us coming out and grinding!

I LoL’d @ the shank. I feel ya. Kudos to you for grindin’. 1% better everyday.

Your swing is better than the skins schedule, that’s for sure.

lol... i think u might be right

@JunksRadio Love how you are putting in the work brother! 🙌

I love your golf training videos. Keep ‘em coming, EB. Sub 80 is just around the corner!

Watch your hand position at address; think you adjust it towards the ball on the two you shanked.

yeah...im doing that on purpose... only shanked 1 lol :) I'm trying to use Joe mayo's technique... he is a very controversial short game guru

Man you look skinny !

👊

Tough game

Lookin good dude. Golf is a never ending pendulum of fun and frustration

This is why I stick to the range lol. I’d rip out whatever hair I have left out. Fourth one was a beauty though!

What a frustrating sport. I appreciate the skill involved but I prefer to be a spectator.

I enjoy playing golf. Precisely why I've never tried to get good at it.

Don’t tee it up on the grass. No wonder you shanked it. 😂

just giving it an average lie

Then it was just lazy

maybe

Concrete feet.. too much leg movement

It's an evil game, EB. It doesn't let you get comfortable. Keeping hitt'em straight. ⛳

Watch mickelson short game on YouTube , quick, concise .. makes it easy

I've watched em all :)

Wait...How are you watching the PGA? Multi talented no doubt.

🤐

my2 cents... your club approach to the ball is inconsistent. On the 3rd shot, you line up with the outer part of the club face at ball center. In the rest of your shots, the heel of the club was closer to center.
