  • Every shot from my round (12 handicap) of golf at Real Club de Golf de Las Palmas (Bandama) Golf Course in Gran Canaria. I played this course at the start of the year and scored fairly well. Looking to go around even better this time out!

    First video I’ve seen of yours for a while. 100% improvement off the tee especially with driver which I think is half the battle to lowering scores - distance off the tee keeping it in play - very good. Short game let you down in this round and putting on those greens looked really tough to be fair. Also when you scored that quad, remember it makes all us worse golfers feel much better about ourselves. Keep up the good content! 😀

    • @UpDownGolf
      @UpDownGolf  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks Ava, I totally agree. My tee shots just recently have really been putting me in better places to score lower. The short game has disappeared annoyingly but I'll work on that 👍 Aha I'll keep that in mind 😂 Thanks for watching dude!

    Some quite narrow fairways which you dealt with quite well, Luke. I was wondering if maybe you should invest in a 60 deg. Lob Wedge as you were quite close on the edges of greens in the first set of 9 and the pitching wedge was making them run a fair bit. Just a thought.

    Set the hook, and reel her in. Let her hit some shots on the green, before you know it, she will be picking out some clubs. Punch out shots, my secret is to use a stiff, firm putting stroke with my driver. Don't knock it till you try it. Great shot if you need to keep it low, and/or no backswing. Practise, practise, practise.

    Only just started watching your content, so can’t comment from an improvement perspective - but got to say you hit your driver and irons very well 💪🏼
    Hopefully this doesn’t offend, but there’s room for improvement in your short game - which with a bit of work would see you off single figures.
    If you ever go down the coaching route, would recommend Dan Grieve @ Woburn. Best short game specialist around.
