    James, let's be honest. We love when you hit birdies, we love when you hit triple and quadruple.
    You are the most positive golfer on YT.
    That is why we all love your content.
    Last week I was playing with a random guy, and after the first hole he said:
    "Triple bogey on opening hole... No drama...".
    I looked at him, he looked at me, I asked "You watch James?" "YEAH!"
    And we started laughing like maniacs ;-)

    Great comeback James!

    What a comeback! I would have taken up fishing after the previous days 9 holes. I would have started my fishing with my golf bag also! Really like watching your channel!! Thanks for your efforts!

    Getting back on the horse! You were fortunate to do that the next day. Sometimes we have to wait a week to banish the nightmare of the previous round. Well played James!

      It was weird I couldn't get the +19 out of my head the night after that round. It was crazy to score the best I ever had the day after. Golf is indeed a funny old game! :)

    Well done James. Sometimes you just hit a groove and nothing can go wrong. The most important distance in golf is the space between your ears. Keeping that calm shaves shots off a round.

    • @notaperfectgolfer3489
      @notaperfectgolfer3489  7 месяцев назад

      Very true. Good shots lead to more good thoughts and then it snowballs into good scores :)

      Cheers mate. The first round I was rushing around playing quicker than normal without realising it. This round I would have taken a +7 but to get to Evs was amazing. Thanks for watching :)

    • @notaperfectgolfer3489
      @notaperfectgolfer3489  7 месяцев назад

      I'd definitely have taken it at the start. If a couple more putts dropped I might have been -2 which is insane! :)

      @notaperfectgolfer3489  7 месяцев назад +1

      Cheers Mark. I wonder what those 2 caddies thought? The first one must have been thinking am I a beginner what am I doing with a camera? The 2nd one might have been thinking if few more putts dropped I could've threatened the course record! lol :)

  • @LeeHobbies
    @LeeHobbies 7 месяцев назад

    Brilliant James. I'd watched your previous round before this one and it was great to see you come back strong. Playing on consecutive days can really make a difference, although I've only done it twice. Coincidentally, my handicap was 27 when yours was. And quite literally, my current handicap is 14.6, so you're like my pace setter, haha. I've only played 25 rounds in that time due to work and money, but well over 100 at the range on the virtual golf with toptracer. My original aim was an 18 handicap, and I got there with better clubs and a million hours of RUclips coaching videos. I think we have similar swings and needs in clubs. Let me tell you though, give a Ping G400 SFT a go, they're pretty damn cheap now and possibly the second most forgiving driver ever made (after the new one with the crazy £600 price tag). I am certain it would suit your swing, add even more accuracy and distance to your drives. Anyway, a pleasure to watch you play as always, many thanks.

    • @notaperfectgolfer3489
      @notaperfectgolfer3489  7 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for the tip I'll have to try it. Yeah, sometimes the swing is there and sometimes it isn't. Playing on consecutive days really improves my putting as seen in this round. Thanks for watching mate :)

  • @neilpeace7734
    @neilpeace7734 7 месяцев назад

    Much smoother here from shot 1 so no surprises there. You could actually see a bit of tension in the drive. Amazing the number of times that happens when you are called through and you know someone is watching the shot. 🙄 Nice round James and a great watch. Happy days indeed! 🙂 Maybe part of it was getting used to the speed of the greens it's usually easier the second time round I think.

    • @notaperfectgolfer3489
      @notaperfectgolfer3489  7 месяцев назад

      Yeah, getting called through when you're not expecting can sometimes disrupt your rhythm. Thanks for watching :)
