Hi I’m Matt Lockey, welcome to my Coach Lockey YouTube Channel. This YouTube channel is designed to help you play better golf, and to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf course vlogs, golf challenges, golf tips, golf lessons, golf club reviews and the odd golf club unboxing. So pretty much everything golf!
I want to help you play better golf by providing coaching videos on all topics about golf. How to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
As well as helping you produce the best long game you can have, I will help you lower your scores by chipping better, stopping duff and thin chips, pitching the ball closer and creating backspin like the tour pros. Finally, I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts too!
If you enjoy the channel make sure you hit subscribe and also tap the notification bell so that you are always notified when I release a new video.

my driver is strong 12°lofted 3 wood😁. Smashing
Until I learn to hit up more than 1.5 degrees my driver is turned up all the way to 12.5 degrees thank you very much. Tee up on par3's. And yes I would pull a safety club on that hole12. No fun hitting wedges all the time for a second shot LOL. Nah, just joking. Fact is that my driver would never make that narrow end of the fairway. What a scratch golfer has and I don't is driver length off the tee.
Our feature hole is par 3 over water (116 – white, 108 – yellow) Absolute card wrecker. Short par 3s are great fun
Please do more.

Always in a good mood and laughing. But this time Coach is singing. Nice video with good tips. Thanks.
Thanks Coach! Laying up to be safe; my 3-wood seems to be at least 20% more reliable than my driver. So laying up for me is taking the 3-wood out, rather than an iron. So I am always trying to balance a bit more yardage vs a fair bit more reliability…
Love the strategy vids with stats, great job Coach!
How I would play hole 1 as a 12 handicap with little time to practice: Walk up straight from the car because I didn't have time to warm up. Smash driver hard as well, except I'd mishit it and it'd only go 200 yards and not straight with a really uncomfortable stiff swing. From then on, I just focus on bogey and move on to hole 2.
Hole2 – I'd catch it a little thin with my gap wedge and it'd go over the green. Try my best to make 3 but probably a 4.
Hole3- When i see 343 downhill, I think low punch running 4 iron that goes 200-215. Just try to control anything and make contact as I have yet to do that well.
Hole4- Probably try and draw a hybrid starting it at the tree on the right. It'd probably be a duck hook low into the white tree on the left. Focus on bogey at worst.
4 over through 4 but I'm finally loose.
I binned the driver off and tee'd with the retro 90's 3wood – started shooting 80's instead of 90's!
Great tips Coach! Based on the first hole you left your first putt short. I do this all the time and it frustrates the heck out of me (you will miss 100% of putts that dont get to the hole). Do you have a drill or video on this?
Enjoyable video coach
Lol, I love when people put up tour average stats and say, "See, this proves you should be doing xyz". Erm, no it doesn't, we ain't pros, nowhere near pros. The fact is (as you yourself demonstrated) a pro can play out of the rough infinitely better than all amateurs. So a particular amateur might duff 4/10 of his shots from the fairway but 8/10 from medium-to-heavy rough. So you can't tell that golfer it's better to be closer and in the rough.
Anyway, I'm a scratch golfer, I write down my good scores and scratch out my bad ones! Nice video by the way.
More of these please, but on one condition. Never, ever, sing again!
I play quite conservatively when scoring. Im 14 handicap, but wat too inconsistent to get that. (Quirks of the system) I dont score that often though, and go for the hero shots when I'm not. I work hard on the range too, but I think you've always got to stretch yourself to keep going forward. I sometimes play with a group who compete and score everytime. And they always play the percentages. When we do play, I usually come in behind even though they are higher handicap. I dont want to stand still though.
No singing!!!!
Playing videos with strategy are always good
More of this please coach and I'm happy with the singing too!
I'd just like to say there are 1958 views and only 264 likes. Shameful.
My m.o. is playing safe and topping it.
thump up a turf tee. on the shorty and try to get it close if i don't have to risk a hazard or short sided bunker.
Just a comment on the 1st tip & searching for that "extra speed driver swing". I'm 55 & back is delicate now. I've found a tee'd down, medium speed, driver strike that's consistent (ok, 230 to 240 yards total only). You have to remember for some of us over 50, practicing more & trying to swing harder would simply result in injury (and yes, I stretch and do gym work A LOT).
If I use my Driver then I have to swing nice and easy and it's ok – any athletic stuff and I will be in trouble !
5 Wood 4 hybrid off the fairway will be o8k better than Driver !
Use above or 3 wood off tee now and then 😮!
Great video coach. The methodology shown here shows that sticking to the plan will provide the results you deserve. Looking forward to the next challenge.
Last week played safe and it cost me two extra shots!🤨
As far as your singing is concerned, don't quite your golf job.
Any time I get within spitting distance of the green in regulation I feel like I should get a prize.
With the amount of data available today, it’s astounding to me how many people don’t understand the importance of distance. Especially off the tee.
Cheating if using slope😮
