People who are serious about their game should watch these lesson videos on repeat as often as they play the game. Seriously!

[youngb]

Really enjoying these lesson vids. Cam is one of the best putters I'll take his advice.

About 3 years ago I heard Steve Stricker saying he grips the putter extremely tight (8 out of 10) with his left hand only. I tried it and my putting has become a lot more consistent since.

Cam is my favorite professional golfer and the best in putting. I want to see him win more LIV tournaments and majors. Go Cam! Go Rippers!!

[cml]

More videos like this please!!! Awesome!

[nildex]

These instructional videos are top-notch, and hopefully bring more people to play the game, to try and emulate these players. Only thing to mention is that his right thumb is not straight down the grip, it's across from his right to left.

Great stuff! Who doesn't want a lesson on putting from Cam? I've always used a soft grip, but I'm a horrible putter so I'm gonna try Cam's way. Would love to see how he reads greens.

This recipe is a staple in my house and I’ve made it many times. People tell me it’s the best spaghetti they have ever had when I make it.

[darrinwhitaker]

I could listen to Cam every day. Hope he does more golf instruction.

[patrikdiluca]

He is an amazing personality. Great guy. More of this Cam short game videos please!

[craiggibbons]

Hey, thanks, Cam. Since watching this tip a few weeks ago, my putting has improved so much. I've had three 2s in the last two games. A bit more pressure on the grip is a game changer.

This has changed and helped my putting so much!!

[tma]

Excellent, thanks, Cam! Go Rippers!!!

[donschultz]

I'm lost in the Index Finger Position. Time to rewatch

[WorldsBestWingman]

Thanks Cam, great advice thank you....

[Babengbabeng]

I have never clicked so fast on a video before. I bet pga tour players had the same reaction time.

[gasperstarina]

He is awesome...I think it was Players 2022 where hi missed literally EVERY-or most of fairways and win the tournament...best putting performance ever...

[robertbrown]

Cam Smith is one of my favorite golfers. If he can get full control over his drives, there will be few golfers on the planet that can beat him. I think he should check out Moe Norman's swing and talk to Bryson about that single plane swing. Moe Norman was probably the best ball striker of all time, if not the top then right at the very top with the world's greatest golfers.

[stuartmather]

Was there a section on this video about ball position?

Dear Cam Smith, you are the great golfer, I like your playing game, can you reccomend livgolf to cut down the music while the golfers are playing shots, because I want to hear the good natural sound of playing shots from you, thank you Cam Smith.
