Great to see you at Budock Vean again. The 5th is also my nemesis. If your drive ends up on the right you have a tough corner to get round. Usually 2 or more hits for me. 6th is a challenge because it's very narrow and further than you think. With the ninth I now usually hit the green. I take a 9 and smash it. You have to be very confident on this one. Play right through and the ball goes sky high, then drops onto the green. I'll show you next time you come down if you like. I'd happily play in a comp if you organise one.
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF I saw a couple of lads get on the green with pitching wedges. Mind you, they didn't half hit the ball. Oh to be young and care free again!!
I think that’s the key David. It’s all about trusting what I have been told and then trusting to do it myself. Plus accepting that it’s not always going to work straight away.
Well played oggie I was there that day and no you never got in our way you let us through 0n the 7th thanks .I have been struggling with the 5th hole as well lately and I play it every week its not stroke 1 for nothing . It was nice to meet you that day keep the videos coming mate and thanks for the nice comments about Budock vean .
Thank you to Budock Vean for allowing me to film. It was a fabulous day and the facilities are excellent. Would anyone be interested in my arranging a small competition here at some point. Just a fun day out.
John, I LOVED this video. It's an approachable course, and your game is vastly improved from last year! Thanks for your hard work and amazing attitude. You are the kind of guy that I would love to play with. Maybe one day I'll get the chance to travel again. Cheers.
Has anyone seen you and John Daly in the same room? Seriously, vast improvement John. I'd love to come down for a little thrash about if arranged and time off work and pass from the missus allows!
Thank you so much Mark. I think feeling much more relaxed is key for me right now. In fact I wonder if I can make a video about that… mind over matter etc.
Looks like a good course John. Although tight it seems difficult to actually lose the ball which is good. Looks much easier than your old West Cornwall course where if you miss the fairway by even a fraction it is a reload job!
Well done oggie, much improved and confidence in what your doing 👏 a pleasure to watch you starting to enjoy yourself and yes a great improvement to what you did a few years back , when you seemed to doubt yourself now a more good average golfer like the rest of us keep going 👍
John what can I say you must be enjoying golf because that was very consistent golf the last few holes did you because it got busy keep it going mate playing like that gives us all inspiration 👍
Hi there My friend and thank k you for your kindness. I think last year, certainly after my charity day things got on top of me somewhat. But now I am more relaxed and although still working non stop to make the channel a success, I am more happy with the way I am playing and less pressured about things.
Lovely video Oggie, can't be easy trying to play and set up the camera for good shots so well done. Have to say you were on fire of the tees that day, swinging well and hitting the ball cleanly. Beautiful venue for a little competition as well.
It’s a challenge my friend but I love doing it. Can’t do it again like that for a while as my main camera is being fixed right now as the screen is broke lol. As for the game I think that’s one of my best days ever. I wish it would happen more often x
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF It's a constant challenge John but having days like that is the reason we keep going back to the course. Can't wait for the weather to improve and warm up a bit. Having a lesson myself next week so fingers crossed it goes well.
Really good performance John, love watching your solo vlogs! Your new found confidence shining through!! So difficult videoing at same time, brilliant effort.
I haven't seen your swing in several months. It's much improved, Dan done a great job. The only reason you're hitting it left is coz you move your head and shoulders in that direction first on the downswing. Probably coz you're trying to hit it hard. Your putting and chipping need serious work though.
Enjoyed that big man you've come on a long way, keep rocking on would love you to do spark welll sparkwell that's where my career started with my brother in law a Plymouth boy

I think with the 9th you are right, it’s all about confidence however I have heard stories of smashed swimming pool roof etc lol

Nice vlog John.
Great course and some great golf and camerawork.
Your game is improving, now just trust yourself. It's all there.
Stay safe and thanks

Looks like Dan has done a fine job. Your drives are improving. Xx
Thank you darling x

You're welcome John, always a pleasure to see you to Budock Vean. We're happy to work with you on a small competition, just ask!

Course is a very beautiful place xx
Certainly is x

Always happy to meet up and whack a ball about my friend x as for me and John D, oh what a vlog that would be lol
Nice looking course on a great day. Pleased for you with your game improving. Great to see John, well done
Thank you so much Keith. When the sun shines it’s always a good day for golf x
Great video John, you seem really relaxed and like your enjoying your Golf again! And seeing improvements all the time!
Thank you so much Mark. I think feeling much more relaxed is key for me right now. In fact I wonder if I can make a video about that… mind over matter etc.
Your golf is definitely improving ..... well done .....keep it up.
Thank you so much my friend x I am a work in Progress x
A really lovely place. Love to try the spa xx
It’s a fabulous little place to stay and relax x
great looking place and course dan doing good job on you well played
I need some more lessons but so far so good x
Looks like a good course John. Although tight it seems difficult to actually lose the ball which is good. Looks much easier than your old West Cornwall course where if you miss the fairway by even a fraction it is a reload job!
Oh believe me you can lose a ball here and there are outs of bounds too. A very different course though from west Cornwall links x
What a beautiful place. And a course that you seriously need to plot your way around.
Exactly and that makes each hole so much fun.
Brilliant video John. You played some great shots! Big fan of Budock Vean 👌🏻
It’s a lovely place and not just for the golf x
That’s the best I’ve seen you drive ,well done John.👏👏👍
I think it is too… things are certainly improving x
Video is great, Your golf is so much better. Keep going mate.
Thank you x
Where do you get the sunshine from? Every time I go out with the camera it rains! 🤣🤣🤣
Ha ha well I lived in both a Gloucester and Cheltenham so I do understand your pain.
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF I might get a dry evening! Yay!
Well done John, great round. The practice is really paying off… you must be well pleased. Love the content 👍🏻
I am very pleased with how things are going but still very realistic that there is a long way to go x
Well done oggie, much improved and confidence in what your doing 👏 a pleasure to watch you starting to enjoy yourself and yes a great improvement to what you did a few years back , when you seemed to doubt yourself now a more good average golfer like the rest of us keep going 👍
I think mindset is key my friend. I may do a video about this.

Your swing has improved so much especially the quality of the strike
Thank you Brian… it’s still a long way off where I want to be but it’s all very encouraging right now x
You’re tee shots were so much better!
I have to admit that I was amazed and I hope that the excitement showed on the video. It’s like a revelation at times x
Wow that lesson really did the trick Big O.
I think things are starting to get there now x
Really good performance John, love watching your solo vlogs! Your new found confidence shining through!! So difficult videoing at same time, brilliant effort.
Thank you so much Simon. I am feeling a whole lot better about the game right now and I hope that shows.
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF it certainly does show
Margaret and myself would love to come down, and play the course.
Hi there Gary. It would be lovely to see you both again anytime x

Your putting and chipping need serious work though.
My putting is the best part of my game actually but yes I appreciate that there is still a whole lot of work to be done across my game.
This looks like it's going to be a stunner
It’s a good one x
Your swing is looking good John. Keep it up!
Thank you Dave. Very much a work in progress but improving I think x
Your swing is definitely improving. The driving especially.
Thank k you so much x
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF I'm really enjoying your channel and seeing your golf swing developing.
Love these, and your game has come on leaps and bounds
Thank you. I think I am starting to try and listen to what I am taught x
You can move the marker posts John if they are causing an obstruction.
Ah yes I forgot that. Thank you for reminding me x
Definitely improved John. Getting your weight forward on the driver. I'm sure if you applied that to your irons it would help 👍
I think that’s the next plan my friend. I need to stop my brain making me fall back on a shot. It’s so hard to get out of that habit though x
you are definitely aiming more left now John. well done.
Thank you Alex that’s something I still need to work on though lol what with eyesight and my shot shape.
Driver is really looking good now Big O.👍👍😁
Honestly Badger when I get it right and ok not always, but when I do I get so excited at the outcome.
Swing is looked dialled John! Good work
Bless you my friend. I think we are getting there slowly.
Oggie has been taken over by an alien force …super golf
Ha ha hmm maybe there is life on other planets x
Defo getting better Pal..Well done and yes a tourney would be good.
Hi there my lovely friend x was lovely to see you the other day. I think a fun event, small scale and very relaxed would be a great idea.
Maybe if people come from other places in the country it could be the cream tea cup??
Well played John, a scramble would be good there, could see some low scores
Oh yes a scramble would be fun wouldn’t it x
Enjoyed that big man you've come on a long way, keep rocking on would love you to do spark welll sparkwell that's where my career started with my brother in law a Plymouth boy
I have Sparkwell in the pipeline or shall we say Welbeck Manor x
@@BIGOGGIEGOLF the layout has been changed in recent years tho hasn't it, still live it down there tho john
I didn’t know it before but yes Darren used to play there often and yea the layout has changed somewhat x
SWING LOOKING GREAT JOHN LETS GO MASH POTATO!!!
I know it's hard if your videoing, Just stop for 10 seconds before you putt. Many strokes to be made.
I know I rush sometimes my friend. But you understand the pressure of filming x
Maybe walk the course next time. Give yourself time between shots and a work out. GUARANTEED to improve your game.
Ah if only I had time to walk a course and film all on the same day.
