3 GOLF TIPS you need to Play PAR 3’s Better

I haven't replied to a video before. I so agree with the (3) points you made in such an easy manner, that I felt compelled. Keep up the good work.

What do you do if you are like me, 76 years old, and struggle to get a 5 iron to a 143 yards?

This video is so important, especially for all club golfers.
It highlights how tricky the game of golf can be if you are not thinking about strategy.
Par 3’s are the type of holes where once you hit a poor tee shot, there’s virtually no recovery shot, compared to a par 4 or 5 where you have shots and more options to play with.
It would be great to play a round of golf with you guys, thanks Danny for a great lesson.

Hi Danny, thank you for al, the great content. Would it be possible for you to create a video about leg movement especially the front leg when swinging I have a problem with too much bend to too much lift . Thanks

Love it Danny. This video is more about "how to play golf" and less about "how to hit the golf ball." Want more videos like these! ;-)

What a beautiful looking course and golf hole. Great tips too

out to in divot.

Another great video. I try and follow a similar routine but I use an app called VPAR on my iPhone to get gps distances to pin front and back, do you think there’s much to be gained from a laser range finder?

Great video, Matt’s always got amazing content just like you do.
My ego is my biggest weakness on course

Great video as always. Just a quick comment. I believe the slope feature on lasers are not legal to use. Keep up the good work.

Great video! Would love to see a video on the nerves ya get when your 3 buddies are watching you and a foursome quietly pulls up! I fold like a cheap suit!!!!!!Great videos......

Excellent video Danny. This is one aspect of the game most of us don't take enough time on but is as perhaps more important. The other day I hit a perfect drive on a par 4 that ended up going to far into a creek I didn't take into account it has been dry and hot. Should have hit 5 wood. Excellent tip thanks!!

please a lesson on "A game".. I don't seem to know that one ;)

Good video but too much talking.

Player asks his caddie if he can make the next shot with a 7 iron. Caddies reply: Eventually

great video, one thing i would say to the editor is when you guys switch side....switch the audio!

Really useful, as ever! Thanks very much,both of you

Man, if I lived in the U.K., and not the States, I'd be signing up for lessons from you every week! You da best!

Thanks DM. This was brilliant. Not just theory. Loved the talkwalk through club selection. The best yet. More on course tips please. LUVd this . Superb.

Another informative video, Danny. Maestro, do have a video on the wrist set or “ hinge.”

Poor sound quality

I appreciate that the key steps were highlighted here. I'm a fan of Matt Fryer also, great to see you both in this great video.

That's a tricky hole! Crikes I thought my par 3s were tough! Great video as always - thank you!

Great video, definitely doing this from now on

Nice job, Danny! I would assume this would work for approach shots on par 4s & 5s as well?!

Ty for your help.. the way u explain and show shots r exercises are the best for me personally..

Great lesson again Danny. Would like to see this on 18 holes. Where was this golf course?

Danny I really enjoy your videos. Whoever said you can't teach an old dog new tricks was wrong! Your videos have given me more confidence to attempt changing some of my old habits! Thank You! looking forward to more videos from you!

great instructions. Have anjoyed Danny's videos. However, the audio on this one was odd. Maybe it's just in my head phones. but each person comes in one side of the head phones. Could use some balancing.

I love that he missed the shot in the end. Tells me that all the great preparation in the world and we can still not be perfect. Why I love the game!

The last comment ie. using driver on par 3s was sent by Alain Sroczynski and not Anne Taylor, my wife,don't know how to fix it.

Here is my way of scoring lower scores on par 3s, I use a driver on most par 3s from 100 yards and up. The reason, I avoid doubles or worse. I hit the greens about 50% but when I miss it's usually an easy up and down and I win closest to pins a lot of times. It takes a bit of getting used to it, by choking down on short par 3s and punching the ball. The only times I don't use the driver is when there is water in front of the green and I have been known to put back-spin with the driver. I shoot regularly in the low to mid-80s by avoiding doubles or higher on par3s, that's my secret to lower scores!!!

Great stuff as usual, Danny. I can't get my golf buddies to understand this, they never assess where the trouble is on the hole, and they never care about any number except yards to the pin.

Great course. Great lesson. You could be on the "Postage Stamp" @ Royal Troon

Dany, Thank you !Always Good Advice and good humour showing how to do things . This makes it easier. Also a very pretty golf course! Where is it???

Great instruction from you and Matt Danny. So important to manage our way around the golf course but sadly not many of us do and like you say put your ego in your pocket and hit a longer club if necessary

Another great lesson, Danny. Looking forward to the rest of the series!

Assess the wind, evaluate the pin.......
Me. Hit it at the green then try to find it.

So where did the 8 iron end up? Did he make the green. Why didn't you show the result?

Commite?

Why specify this as a Par 3 thought process? Surely this applies to all approach shots. The only difference for a Par 3 is you have a more consistent ‘lie’ and the advantage of teeing up, everything else you spoke about applies.

Like all other golf tips; sounds good in theory, but we only get one shot!

Danny any swing thoughts when you have your C game swing on the range just before the first tee? How do you manage so the round isn’t a total loss?

Loved seeing the collaboration! Great tips on assessing and not being afraid to club up and the emphasis on committing to the shot....speaking of committing, if you bail, you will fail as the body is working instinctively to make the shot while the mind screams “no, no, no...” See it (assess), feel it (commit to the club, shot shape) trust it (commit to the shot, stay in it all the way through)

Love the advice...i must get away from playing my ego game, we try to play the ego shot to bring a bad day into a good day instead of waiting for the right time and hole. Cheers D

I lose so many shots on technical par 3’s, good tips especially building in “how am I playing factor “ :-)

Great video Danny and Matt. My home course, Glencorse GC, has 8 par threes on it and often I find myself falling into the trap of being over familiar with the hole I’m on and thinking I play this with this club. Going to put this into practice and take my time making theses assessments to my shots.
