Watching golf videos can be a great way for visual learners to pick up some skills. YouTube golf instructors help players that are needing some golf drills and instructional videos but don’t have a local golf coach to work with. I watch a lot of YouTube golf instructors when I’m struggling with something in particular, especially the short game. It’s interesting to get some different opinions and try out new swing techniques. Here are my top 11 best YouTube golf instructions. 1. Danny Maude Danny Maude is a very smart golf instructor that helps golfers understand the science and…

It was Tiger’s first eagle since the 2020 Genesis Invitational.…
What if I told you that, for me, the best part of the Masters has nothing to do with the golf? Introducing the Air Max 1 G “Always Fresh”, the best (or worst) shoe we’ve seen this year. Each spring leading up to the Masters, soft-goods manufacturers open the creative floodgates with one goal in mind: to make the best Masters-themed gear. It’s my favorite time of the golf season because we get to see fun (often polarizing) designs like this one. The “Always Fresh” NIKE Air Max 1 G and its peachy perfection are a fitting overture for the…
USATSI Tiger Woods has been in the third round of the 2023 Genesis Invitational as a pair of early birdies got him into red figures. Still, despite the success, it has not been all smooth sailing for the 47-year-old as a wayward drive on the 13th — his fourth hole of the day — ended up finding a fan’s jacket pocket.”I pulled off my jacket and it [Tiger’s golf ball] fell right there,” the spectator told the rules official on site. “Right here, I haven’t moved. He’s security, he knows…If I could I would have pushed it out [towards the…

For most of my formative years on the golf course, I had little to no knowledge of the impact of my shaft on my launch. Fortunately, I am older and wiser and have seen the light. In this post, I pay homage to the best high-launching iron shafts in each category for 2023. The best of the list features a range of graphite and steel shaft designs that cater to slow, mid and faster swing speeds, seeking a higher launch. I have also included the top pick for ladies and senior golfers in our ranks. What Types of Shafts…

Tiger Woods will be around for the weekend at the 2023 Genesis Invitational. Turning in a 3-over 74 on Friday was how Woods followed up his opening round of 2-under 69 from Thursday to remain inside the top 65 at 1 over. The 15-time major champion found himself on the projected cut line for much of the afternoon, but as conditions toughened the likelihood of Woods making the cut became certain.”I did not putt well today, I blocked a lot of putts early and this is probably the highest score I could have shot today,” said Woods. “Probably should have…
