    Thank you for continuing to try to qualify for the Open. Seeing the RUclipsrs we watch so regularly try to really push themselves and achieve something great in competitive golf has always been some of the most compelling content on YT imo. Not only does it highlight the difficulties of real competitive golf, but it shows off one of the best aspects of golf - that even a non-tour pro can have their day & go compete with the best in the world.
    Tbh it’s a shame so many others have quit trying to make the dream come true. Obv, I understand how difficult it is, but achieving something monumental and meaningful like the Open is as good as it gets! So thank you for keeping it going & will be rooting for you to make it every year you attempt it!

    I can understand your frustration but the wind conditions really made it difficult. Thanks for letting us tag along for your round. Having goals for your game is a positive and I wish you good luck for future competitive playing. Thanks for sharing!

  • @chrisw1878
    @chrisw1878 11 месяцев назад

    Really glad there are some RUclipsrs still posting this content. Lots of the guys just gave up posting anything "competitive" and focus on casual rounds. Lot more to learn from somebody playing in a real comp than there is from somebody playing a random course with nothing on the line.

  • @gallzyrm
    @gallzyrm 11 месяцев назад +10

    Great effort in what seemed to be some difficult conditions!! We’ll be behind you next year and your breaking par series will stand you in good stead 👍🤞

  • @diamondxpres-diamondpainting
    @diamondxpres-diamondpainting 11 месяцев назад

    Signing up to play and posting the round are huge accomplishments!! Thanks for sharing!! Honest feedback for you: tough course and tough conditions. You did a great job of sticking to it and banging in the nerve wracking par putts. Tom Watson says to walk like a champion. Whether you are ten under or ten over walk like.a champion. No one should be able to tell how you are playing by the way you are walking around the course. I sensed a great deal of frustration and exasperation with your game....one long putt, one blistered 4 iron, one hole out from the bunker and you are right back in it. Keep on grinding.

  • @richardlow867
    @richardlow867 11 месяцев назад +1

    Great video mate. 10/10 content. You get massive respect for "every shot" filming in a comp. If you can do a few more of these I'll be grateful 👍

  • @nickupjohn8586
    @nickupjohn8586 11 месяцев назад +5

    Well done you , I’ve caddied for a couple of Pro friends back in the day and know how tough Open Qualifying is for all concerned, you should be proud of yourself for trying as many don’t . Loved the video . Next time go play the course ahead and give yourself a better chance . Again good on you for putting yourself under the considerable pressure.

    • @andycartergolf
      @andycartergolf  11 месяцев назад

      I had played it before at least 10 years ago so could have done with being more familiar for sure! Especially on 5 when i made double

  • @kevinsingleton5904
    @kevinsingleton5904 11 месяцев назад +6

    It was a pleasure to walk round with you and watch you battle all the way on a very tough day in 20 mph plus winds. I think given a bit more local knowledge you could have fared a bit better. Your finish was not to bad in the field considering how little competition golf you play. Best of luck for next year.

    • @robsengahay5614
      @robsengahay5614 11 месяцев назад

      I was going to say also that playing a practice round or two on that course is pretty essential. Too many shots hit with low confidence by the sound of it and this is exacerbated by lack of local knowledge.

  • @ianrobertson1647
    @ianrobertson1647 11 месяцев назад +1

    Think you may well have produced one of the most accurate videos of how hard it is to play summer golf in the UK when its dry and windy. Every one of us has gone through what you went through, approach shots racing through the green, too long birdie putts and the classic, always hitting your provisional shot perfect. Really enjoyed that format of video.

  • @brianneary2329
    @brianneary2329 11 месяцев назад +1

    Great effort Andy . For someone who doesn't regularly play comps it was a great try. Do a series "I play Open Qualifying Courses' for next years preparation as you probably find a lot of those other players have played there , if not recently , then most likely in the last year.

    It's nice to see competitive golf made accessible and explained for those of us who just hack round - the processes in shot selections and the like are good to hear as it re-enforces some sensible choices rather than getting too aggressive and carding a million

  • @mossy44sammoss

    @dominicclarkgolf4924 11 месяцев назад +1

    Hi Andy, brilliant video mate! So good to capture every shot. Honestly was a tough day with that wind and only missing by 4 wasn't bad. Wanted to give a little advice as I play a links course at my home clubm driving and putting were superb! You can't lag put well in 30kph+ winds but you holed out so well. The only advice i would give is learning to play 7-9 iron half shots into the greens rather than wedges into the wind. Also a fat forgiving untily or hybrid long instead of blade like 4 irons you had 2 misses with would really be for forgiving of those tight links fairways and reduce the doubled. Hope they helps.🙌😃 You are a Stella ball striker mate and don't give on the open next year. Best wishes. Dom👍

  • @proffessorclueless
    @proffessorclueless 11 месяцев назад +1

    Looked like tough conditions. 2 Big positives - Driving and putting from 5 to 8 feet. 3 Big negatives - Not committing to iron shots - not chipping anything really close from not bad lies - long range putting not close enough. Improve your negatives from 3/4 out of ten to 7/8 out of ten and you have a realistic chance. To qualify for the open the negatives need to be 9/10 out of ten with no lapse in driving and holing out. Good luck for next year.

    • @andycartergolf
      @andycartergolf  11 месяцев назад +1

      Yes driver was on 🔥 thankfully and I’m very confident holing out for pars but the long putts were poor and approaches with a little untidy.
      Work to do but I’ll go again

    Bit of an up and down round. My congratulations on not letting a couple of those early bogey's drop you off track for the round. You were able to bounce back and make some good shots. All in all, I would say that you were really close and a bounce here or an executed shot there and you'd have been in the playoff. Great job and thank you for sharing

I'm sure it's frustrating to note the wasted shots here and there, but tbf there were plenty of positives and your short putting was spot on. If only those short putts had been for birdies/eagles... btw, I do enjoy vlogs having commentary and analysis added post-round. Thx!

    Appreciate you bringing us along on your round and I really enjoyed your commentary. One question after hearing you comment about last playing the course over 10 years ago. Did you not consider getting in a practice round in the weeks leading up to the event? You talked on several holes about not being 100% sure of the line and there were definitely some blind tee and approach shots.

  • @davegregory2809
    @davegregory2809 11 месяцев назад
