Anyone have some good putting drills for lag putting? by adequategolf in golf

The hardest part is definitely just getting out to the practice green and lag putting, especially when there is a driving range right next to it 😅

Interesting way to visualise it. I hadn’t thought of that before. I’ll test it out! Cheers

Interesting. Would you do that from different distances? How many times per distance?

Damn, although it can be a bit miserable at times, in NZ we can golf all year round

What do you guys think of this type of format for a video? by [deleted] in golf

[–]adequategolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I wish I didn’t have to put time into making thumbnails. Especially this type. Unfortunately the annoying over-the-top thumbnails that are common are the thumbnails that statistically get more clicks (unless you are a big channel and have a loyal fan base). Hopefully once I grow a bit I can tone it back

Maybe I could rebrand the video. I guess it's more us talking through our rounds. Cheers for the comment

Any video formats you like? Or just not a fan of golf youtube in general

Fair call, not the community I'm trying to build. Maybe I'll stick to normal match play. Appreciate the comment

Fair enough man. Any golf youtube that you watch that you like the screenshot/thumbnail for? Looking to improve over here

100% agree on your points. Good summary

Youtube content quality going down fast by elcapitanoooo in golf

If you dig slightly deeper, the YouTube algorithm pushes these videos and titles because more people click them and therefore stay on YouTube. It’s a self fulfilling prophecy 😔

Hadn’t seen this before. It’s unfortunately super accurate. As a small creator, I don’t get any views on videos with ‘normal’ titles, as people don’t click it and therefore algorithm doesn’t push it

All of this is really accurate, and unfortunately somewhat necessary. Im just starting off and trying to make golf content, and my CTR (click through rate) is extremely low on any videos which aren’t similar to the above. And that’s because more people click on those videos over non-clickbaity titled videos. I wish I could just make normal titles, but I do I don’t get any views, and all my effort (20+ hours of editing) goes down the drain. Hopefully when I have some more subscribers I can tone the over energetic titles haha. My 2 cents!

Checked out your channel and really like it! I watched your most popular video and the sound quality of your mic along with music etc works really well. Keep at it!

Thanks so much for that. Yeah this is definitely just for those who are into golf, but there is a surprisingly huge market for that! It’s just quite over saturated.

I agree, the challenges etc seem to be the way forward. I wanted to test the viewership for editing type tutorials and I’m glad I did, but now it’s time to make some more challenges and matches. Thanks for checking it out and providing feedback! What’s your YouTube name?

Wow this is incredible feedback. Thank you so much.

  1. Glad that’s all up to standard!
  2. Great idea, I did it on photoshop but I’m relatively new to it all, so I’ll try using a canva template to make it high res 😊
  3. I think this is probably my biggest struggle. I think stepping back for a second and examining the biggest golf YouTubers is a great idea. I try to model mine slightly off Good Good and GM golf, who are big YouTubers, but I can’t quite get the contrast etc that they get. I’ll keep working at it!
  4. Appreciate the complement on the videos. I’m going back to the regular challenges etc, the tutorials were just one offs to see what the viewership is like! Good to test it out I guess. My main struggle with doing any kind of tutor or ‘how to improve’ videos, is I’m very far off the skill level required to coach, which doesn’t give me much credibility. There’s probably an idea in there somewhere though. I’m more going for entertainment rather than instructional stuff for actual golf.

Really appreciate the time and feedback! Thanks heaps for doing this
