Thanks for the great comments everyone. I've got lots of these videos planned this year with some very special guests! More to come soon...

What an impressive young woman Rachel is. Her lovely demeanour and sense of humour combined with Dan's pearls of wisdom made this a really enjoyable video. I wish I had a fraction of her talent too. The way she absorbed the instruction was awesome.

[tonygreen]

I love your hour long sessions and this was a peach. More of the same please Dan.

[thomasoconnor]

Without question, the best instructional material I have seen. Dan's understanding of chipping is second to none; his ability to explain and coach it is just as impressive. Too many golfers cannot chip; many others are one-dimension chippers i.e., they chip everything off the back foot.

Really appreciate these videos Dan. My only request would be a more comprehensive video about pitching to match the book. Stock releases, lies, etc. That would be incredibly helpful. Thank you for this amazing content!

[pahhaw]

Best short game content available on the internet! PERIOD!❤

[mattmm]

These full lesson videos are so insightful Dan. It's some of the best instructional golf content on YouTube in my opinion.

World class Dan….
It’s great to watch you articulate your way around everyone with a golf club in their hands

[MrShoughland]

I purchased the “Three Releases” book recently. Watching these hour long videos complement the book wonderfully. I would recommend any one wanting to improve their short game to do the same. Thanks Dan.💪⛳️

This was not just a brilliant short game lesson but a lovely interaction. Rachel is the female golfer I want to see: Genuine, pleasant, down-to-earth, modest, hard-working, inspiring and setting a perfect example to all young girls out there to present oneself respectfully and with good manners, to take up golf for the love of the sport and not abusing it for shameless likes, clout and pretentious modelling ops.
These lessons are a game-changer (pun intended) and i love how quickly the tuition is picked up and implemented. It's a sign of a master teacher and can't wait to start playing again.
Thanks Dan. Really fantastic channel.

That smile is universal! Whether you're a teenage girl or an old man and everything in between, that smile you get when you get told a tip, it works and you get that 'aha!' moment. What a joyous feeling 😁😁

Dan, wonderful short game lesson with Rachel, we need to get you to USA to teach us to chip off tight grainy Bermuda around our greens in the south.

[tylercamp]

My short game around the green has improved immensely after watching these videos. Loosening my grip alone made all the difference

[bonhoff]

I enjoy the simplicity of your teaching. Gives me the belief I can still get better. Brilliant content and enjoy these full lessons 👌

[barrybright]

The first teaching video I can remember watching (over and over) was Faldo and Leadbetter at Valderrama when I was 13 years old. I have watched a gazillion teaching videos in the 35 years since. This is one of my favorites ever. Fine work.

[rikkistyles]

Rachel is an absolute delight, I’ve watched this video twice not only to pickup Dans tips but I found joy in watching Rachel’s reactions to her good shots and the shite ones😂. It bought me joy seeing her enjoying golf again. I read a little something you wrote about your golf journey and how you lost the will to play due to losing your Dad then Mother. I know that’s hard as I have recently lost my loved one and now take care of my 13 yr daughter, but I find golf right now as a 6 hour getaway from the seriousness of life. I hope you find your way back to competitive golf shortly, I know what has happened in the past will make you stronger mentally. Much Love Rachel. Keep laughing & giggling

Dan's lessons are really the best golf videos on the Internet. My improvement has made the short game the most fun thing in golf for me!

[stevebrennan]

"Stall and Fall" = my new chipping motto.
Awesome video.
Many thanks to you both.
👏👏👏

[danreed]

I am a beginning golfer who has quickly realized that the short game cannot be practiced enough. Thanks to Dan, I have the knowledge to practice more effectively. Excellent instruction!

[JBCharognard]

I love this format of videos! The longer the better. It's very immersive and helpful to progress.
