Okay, let’s talk about this Andrew Medley Golf stuff I tried out. My game was stuck, you know? Like, really stuck. Felt like I hit a wall and just kept banging my head against it every time I went out to play.

Heard about Andrew Medley from a guy at the club. Said he had some different ideas. So, I thought, why not? Can’t hurt. Went looking online, found some videos and articles he put out. Didn’t sign up for anything fancy, just looked at the free stuff first.
Getting Started with His Ideas
His whole thing seemed to be about simplifying the swing. Less thinking, more feeling. Sounds good, right? We all overthink on the course. He talked a lot about setup and balance. Stuff I thought I knew, but maybe I didn’t really get it.
So, I took it to the driving range. First step was just focusing on the setup he described. Felt weird at first. Like I was standing wrong or something. Spent a whole session just getting used to that feeling. Didn’t even care where the ball went, just wanted to feel balanced like he showed.
The Practice Grind
Next, I started working on one specific move he emphasized. It was about the takeaway, keeping things connected. Man, that was harder than it looked. My old habits kept creeping back in. I’d hit like five good shots feeling connected, then ten shanks or slices doing my old jerky move.

- Focus on setup.
- Drill the takeaway.
- Try not to get frustrated (failed this one a lot).
- Hit ball after ball.
Did this for maybe three weeks? Going to the range twice a week, plus some practice swings at home without a ball. Felt like real work, not just casual hitting. Some days I felt like I was getting somewhere. Other days, felt like I was going backward.
What Happened?
Slowly, and I mean slowly, things started to feel a bit more consistent. It wasn’t a miracle cure. My handicap didn’t suddenly drop by ten strokes. But the really bad misses? They started happening less often. My shots felt more solid off the clubface, you know? That ‘click’ sound was more frequent.
The biggest change was probably mental. Because I was focusing on one or two simple things from Medley, I wasn’t cluttering my head with a million swing thoughts. Just setup, connection, swing. That helped calm things down a bit during actual rounds.
So, yeah. My little journey with the Andrew Medley Golf ideas. It wasn’t revolutionary, maybe, but it gave me something concrete to work on. Broke me out of that rut I was in. Took effort, lots of practice balls, and swallowing my pride after bad shots. But I guess that’s just golf, isn’t it? Always grinding.
