Whose sexy swing is at 5:04?
@@NotAScratchGolfer I thought that was you. RUclips stardom continues!
I played St. Andrews by doing the show up early thing years ago. Got there at 4am and found out I was 16th in line. Asked the starter my odds ("not good lad"). Enjoyed the day in the village checking in from time to time, moved up to #7 by early afternoon. The course offered to take anyone who wanted to play the Jubilee over there on a shuttle. Four people accepted and I went to #3, but it was after 2pm, so I was thinking I'd have to get up even earlier the next day. Then the next to last group was a no-show. Four open slots, three of us standing there. The starter looked at the us and said, "you're on the tee!" Whadda stroke of luck and whadda great day!
Awesome
The Jubilee is great, too, if you get a chance to play. The New and Jub are both excellent courses.
Had a buddy there at St Andrews who did the same, showed up really early, waited 6 hours and got to play and said he was so nervous he could barely hold the club on first hole tee
There is nothing more refreshing than someone being truthful yet positive out on the course. This channel is for me 100%.
I only had one trip to Scotland in my golfing life. Years ago. We went up in June for 3 weeks. When we got way up north we could tee off at 11pm and go round in that permanent twilight after the pubs closed. Wonderful Playa.
Broke 90 today for the first time, scored an 86 in South Africa, this channel really helped me, it comes down to the mental thought of golf, the physical not so much
I have never seen Cruden Bay so calm, what a night.
Matty I know you’re too young to remember this but playing these courses with persimmon woods makes a lot of sense. Easy to control, lots of run out and Old Tom would approve 🏌️♂️👍
Cruden Bay is a joyous place to play golf. First time I played it I could remember almost every hole six months later because each one is a completely different puzzle to solve.
I could see you thinking your way around the course. Picking the wrong line can make some holes really tough. Some of your recoveries were epic!
I want to play it again soon.
Love this Scotland series so far. I have to say Cruden Bay is the most aesthetic course in my eyes so far. Towering dunes, bowl greens. Absolutely superb for a playa 😍
It is utterly brilliant - he really captured the course beautifully in this video. If you haven’t played it, I hope you will someday!
Used to be a member at Cruden Bay. Really good to see the course again. And great to see a regular guy play it well. You got yourself a new subscriber.
2:25 Hey Matty Boom Boom, I hope you find comfort and friendship out there. In the meantime, remember that all your fellow playas are always with you in spirit! Have a wonderful time!
My first and favourite course in the world. My Granny and Auntie (20 odd times club champ) stay in the houses behind the 2nd green.
Cruden Bay is awesome. Our caddies when I played were mostly sons of people who helicoptered out to pull multi-month shifts on the North Sea oil rigs. Edge of the planet type stuff. 👍🏼👍🏼
Confession time I have been watching your videos for a couple of years and can credit you for my enjoyment of golf been high even when I’m having a shit round. I will also credit your advice is what has got me to a 9.7 handicap. But I have only just now subscribed to your channel for some reason I had in my simple mind that I had already done this when I first found your channel. Very sorry keep up the great work
“Perfectly you”. Great golf and life advice. Cheers Matty.
Great messages. Really impressed how you changed your strategy for the courses in Scotland. Well done Matt 😊
What a beautiful setting for a golf course. Thanks for another wonderful video.
Hi Matt
Really enjoy your advice being following break 90 and break 80.Rewatched a break 80 and shot a 78 (+8) which was my lowest ever by 5 shots. I definitely followed your JOMO and other strategies. Many thanks for the advice hoping g to break 80 again soon
Don’t know if you are still in Bonnie Scotland but if you are I would recommend Royal Dornoch which is waaaaay up north. Best course I’ve ever played. Loving this links tour, good luck in your quest for scratch.
Finegan wrote how beautiful Cruden bay is, now we can see it here ! Have to go.
Nice to hear a mention of the mighty Balnagask, my local course!
I wanted to play it but ran out of time
i love seeing you over here playing golf ...they say links golf is tough but you seem to learn so fast love your videos come here more please lol xxx
Smooth like butter.. my favorite swing. Half to half full power... still at 3.2.. I blew that
And forward in the 20 rounds we go. The vibe was good in the flight it seems. At least that's what I seem to read in your body language. Awesome 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
I was a student at St.andrews many years ago. We played the Old Course a few times, always early in the morning 5.30 tee off or something like that, from memory we didn't have a problem booking a tee time. Usually though we played the Eden course which was more adapted to our level. The New course was a gorsey nightmare and best avoided!
Thoroughly enjoying these Scotland videos.
I hope you are enjoying my part of the world ( NE of Scotland) both on and away from the course.
So strange seeing you in places I am familiar with compared to the usual Thailand courses in the videos.
I played the old course years ago. A friend is a member of a Royal course and apparently they have resiprocal rights with other royal courses. Played there, Royal Aberdeen and Carnousite. Anyway, we played on the day and it was great, but I played awful. Had our names on the ballot for the next day as well and got the following day also. Shot an 85 which I was very happy with. And natrually got the picture on the Swilican bridge as well.
gorgeous track
What a Lekka golfcourse. So looking forward going to Scotland.
What a round, love the attitude Playa. Handicap will be 0.3
Let’s keep it going Matt. U da man
You got another good weather day! I really enjoyed Cruden Bay even more than Trump Aberdeen. We did not get in The Old Course and played Jubilee. Do not miss out on Kingsbarns!
Ok playa i will play it!
Love your content.❤❤❤ Keep up the good work. 🎉🎉🎉
Man that is one good looking golf course. The Old Course can only disappoint after that!
It is a brilliant golf course, completely different from the Old Course. Absolutely no comparison, apples and oranges. Can't say one is better than the other, honestly... I can say Cruden Bay is vastly more difficult! Both have wonderful vibes, but the Old Course just has that unmatched atmosphere...
Lovin this channel Matt
I don't know how you managed to play golf with all that beautiful scenery!
Great to see you playing links golf. Why do you not hit the range for a few balls? It helps me calm down before the round. I hate playing on team trunk slammers but some times it’s unavoidable.
I was in at Trump Aberdeen, Royal Aberdeen and Cruden Bay last week for work, unbelievable location. God's country.
amazing!!
Cruden Bay is on my list of Scotland courses.
Whata playa 🙌🙌
Hole 12 - impressive bogey save! I need that inverse 56 shot in my portfolio.
cant believe how lucky you are with the weather mate ... when was this recorded? just love links golf, its the best. Looking forward to the uploads. will go there next summer and try the same aggressive approach :)
Loving the videos dude !
I’d add - “try as hard as I can not to hit draws” because bunkers and gorse are always on the left side ;) (because your power fade doesn’t bend…)
I like the 13th tee box framing
2:58 holy cats that's a pretty hole
Well done Matt, I still believe you will be scratch at the end of the tour…
Is the shot you were playing the same as what they used to call a "knock-down" iron?
Loved Cruden Bay!
The ballot is where they draw names and call them and offers an available tee time. The person then either can take or leave that tee time but it’s their only shot so most people just leave the day free so if hey get the call they can make the tee time.
I see! Could be a way of getting on! Do you need to book as a group or as single ok?
Do you have a vid that shows how you get that consistent contact with the ball and how you take a divot every shot?
Yes every shot should be the par three tee shot!!!
A ballot is like a raffle, you apply to play then lucky dip if you get it or not
Interesting!
Just cutting out the silly shots is what you need to do. Great video!
Playa IS the “putt for dough” phrase in real life
If you’re still in Scotland give me a shout, I can introduce you to some East Lothian gems!
Come on bru get those shorts on, you letting the side down wrapped up like you in the Cape. The locals have been dressed like it’s summer in Durbs in all the vids. Get the jacket off and open the shoulders 😂 Enjoying the content nice to see these courses, hope you get a round at the old course.
Was it the bucket hat or the takomos that allowed you to hit the poes far at 5:40?
Your butler has a pretty good radio voice.
I’m only hear for birdie music. Eagle music is the apex
I played with and won a random scramble with the black vice balls. WHEN we found my ball it was in good spots. .
I've found one black Vice ball, it just happened to be right in front of me, otherwise, I never would have seen it.
The King's course video you posted show you teeing off at a mix of yellow (first 5 holes) and white tees, which would not be a legal score to post. Also curious, how did you come to the -2 adjustment? The wind didn't look all that bad on the Turnberry course that day.
Flexible handicap system
I’m only subscribed for birdie and eagle music.
I like the smooth jazz he sometimes has on the videos too!
I don’t know if you could have bought a more unforgiving hybrid if you tried. Good luck, playa.
I'm a natural!
I was going to comment. It takes a lot of courage to put a new club in the bag when you are playing the courses you are!
Can I ask what your swing thoughts are for hitting those lower iron shots?
Me confused. You said you had your handicap down to 2.4, but the screen showed 6.7. Loved that you showed the Excel calc, but looks like you used -1 instead of -2 in the screen shot.
Oh yes correct. Wrong graphic. That should have Trump Aberdeen in it. That was a differential of 3.4 and minus 1 is 2.4
Editor fired.
Dropping ego may mean dropping the 1 iron? 😬
What happened to 7w? Are you playing long irons so you can get rollout/ lower ball flight/ less spin in Scotland?
Great series so far!
long irons for rollout. 7 wood would balloon into the wind
This guy is such a head case. He will take any club but driver off the tee. He used to drive the ball well. Now he hits bad hybrid shots and brings bunkers into play with a 6 iron. I understand picking targets but you’ve got to be confident with driver on wide fairways.

I'm taking it to the bank - 0.7 is still the winning number
Lovely looking track again fella…what would you give it out of 10? I’d like a little post round course rating as I value your brain.
9 out of 10
4.8 Matty
Why does Tom Watson flash up when you say ‘Tom Morris’?
I dont think thats tom watson
playaaaaa
3.3
Does anyone know what shot tracer app he uses?
P.i.c. keep up the good work
Your narration sounds so serious in this one. Not used to serious matty
Did you give up?
Are you messing with ai Matt just sprinkling him around to see if people notice?
That’s actually me
old course is boring compared to all the courses you've already played in scotsland.
Think I might have gone too high on my first guess 🤔
.9 - Matty has some low scores coming
.69 handicap playa
Great series but wish you would avoid Trump courses !
Why
