- My Quest on Golf's Most Diabolical Course

The green fee was just £10 for a twilight round in September 2023.
The fee for a buggy was £20.
I'm James, a golfer with a dodgy swing now playing off a 14.8 handicap.
Todays course: ellesmereportgo...

A massive thanks to all Not a Perfect Golfer subscribers and viewers for watching! We broke 10k subs this week which is simply amazing! Thanks for watching everyone 👍👍👍
Congrats! Was that the reason behind the get up!! A usually didn’t mention that outfit!! 😂
Congratulations on the 10k subscribers! Did you get the clothes at the same time as the clubs 😂
Great Golf Outfitter's!
Looks like their Scooby Doo collection😂😂😂
Well done James reaching 10k subscribers 🎉. Love the Ian Poulter outfit !!
That was a great video James, love the Intro and b roll inclusions. Didn't realise you had a side job as a croupier though 😉
Look forward to the next instalment
Cheers Dave, thanks for watching 👍👍👍
Golf is a funny old game and that was a funny old outfit!😂 Glad to see you back!
👍👍👍
Blimey James, a walking kaleidoscope! Had to double take that Ian Poulter wasn’t on your channel. Watched it with my shades on!!
👍👍👍
Congrats my friend 10K! And nice job on the editing for this video, incorporating the buggy cam. Well done, think it will brings more subs. Also nice to see the more personal aspect, Keep it up, as always enjoyed the show.
Cheers Manny, I think this one might be my best video 👍👍👍
Grew up as a kid playing around here in the woods and pulling golf balls out of the ponds, its a nice place in the summer. Go back in a few months when the weather is nice and try again 🙂
If that's the worst rated, you need to see my local! That's a bloody dream.
Congrats on the 10k subs, James! Have enjoyed being along for the ride.
Good video James,looks a typical Municipal ,a good course but doesn't get the upkeep that members clubs do. I bet its not too bad in the summer
Cheers mate, I would have liked 20-30 yard rollout on some of those drives!
Can't tell if the outfit is ironic or serious haha.
Well played James another great vid. Congratulations on the 10k. Keep them coming and enjoy your golf.
Well done James, enjoyed the video, and can definitely see massive improvements. Was that a Tour Response ball with the Stripe ? Do you find any benefit with them for lining up green putts?
Yes I really like the ball for putting. The only thing is you have to line it up perfectly which can take a little time. Thanks for watching :)
Wow! That’s some outfit James, did you lose a bet or something? 😂😂😂
That outfit is on point, James. Love that club challenge coupled with the course challenge. Always happy to see an upload from you.
Cheers for the comment. I threw the kitchen sink at this video! lol :-)
Really not that bad for the price. ⛳️
I like those striped golf balls. Makes watching your putts very interesting. 👍
I really like putting with the blue & red striped Taylormade balls. Gives instant feedback on how you hit the putt and looks great on camera. Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
Horrible to find.
love the swing pal.. so simple.. short back swing, turn the body to target.. im going to try it.
Bringing the fashion game James. Looks like you are off to a full moon party
TZoid, what a club, had one as a junior!
TZoid FTW 👍👍👍
Congratulations on reaching 10,000 subscribers, love the channel
Where's my contrast control?
Wow. Love the outfit James 😎 How did you rate the Ping driver ? I picked up the G5 5 wood for £7 and looking forward to a range session. By the way some nice putting there on, shall we say, not the best greens
I normally game the Ping G10 (12° reg) and it was very similar. Couldn't notice too much difference even with the cracked face. Great clubs! Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
James did you get dressed in the dark?
Glad to have met you today! Enjoy your round
Nice to meet you too. Good luck with your golf game! :-)
Hitting that 4 wood well, and your nuts wearing that outfit on the course 😂 you should get some guests on the channel too
That 4 wood went like a rocket! Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
Another entertaining video James, good golf and a very interesting outfit, chosen to match the course and the result of a fertile and open mind!!! Congratulations and Happy Thanksgiving coming up!!!...
Cheers Andrew, I was going to wear this at Royal St David's but changed my mind 👍👍👍
What a great video! May I ask what app you use for the shot tracers?
Loving the Ian poulter look! I love my old ping 5 wood, best club in my bag
Doesn't seem bad at all,good grass and good layout. Theres other here on RUclips which are very very bad! Well played again. Flashy gear-you must get traditional but glamorous, go for the plus fours-great for winter,no coimb up of mud etc
A couple of the greens were ropey but it wasn't too bad all in all. I was pre-warned by a subscriber on the day that the course was very muddy but it was still playable (albeit with no rollout). 👍👍👍
Did you buy the clubs and clothes at the same bargain resale store James? Great video!
At least you have trees and grass! Have you been to New Mexico?
Congratulations on 10k friend 👍 you've been an inspiration for me to get back into golf! I'm still at a 28 handicap however 😅 by the way, what app do you use for your shot tracing? Thankyou!
Thanks mate. Shot Tracer Pro (the old version) is what I use on the tracers 👍 👍
How much was the outfit James? 🤣 Love it mate!
James , where is this second hand shop that you got the clubs from ?
Love the vlogs, well done on 10k
That outfit is extraordinary. Did your tailor have some kind of seizure?
Well done on getting to 10k subs James. I must say that your clothing choice was unusual, was that some kind of celebration?😂
I decided to combine multiple themes all into one video for this one. Just changing things up a bit. A friend said I should have worn that outfit at Royal St Davids! 👍👍👍
@@notaperfectgolfer3489 that would have been interesting James. All that was missing from this outfit were big floppy shoes and a bright red nose 😂😉
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks!
The course actually looks quite good - I have seen plenty worse. Your chipping seems to have gone off a bit. Have you changed your technique?
I wasn't used to the wedges especially that weird wide sole one. The 56° was digging with soft ground which cost me 2 or 3 shots. Thanks for watching :-)
On hole 15 your ball was embedded. If the lift clean and place Winter Rule was in place you proceeded correctly. But at any time, even in the rough, if the ball is embedded in its own pitch mark you can take relief by dropping a ball within a club length no nearer the hole.
Cheers mate, I confused myself with that one. It's annoying when you get zero rollout especially as a short low hitter like me!
see that Fox at 6:43?
Such a fun vlog, James!!!
Man after my own heart....16.3 hc, charity shop clubs, local bus to municipal courses, balls supplied by dog walker pal 😃👍
Balls from a dog walker who sells them at the local car boot. 25-50p a ball even for TP5s (all one hit wonders!)
@notaperfectgolfer3489 Liked and subscribed...Great stuff. 👍
Great video but at first I thought I was watching Mr Tumble in CBeebies . Some good scrambles .
I’ve played a few courses like that here in Texas. Most were not as bad as the rating indicated. With that outfit you’ll never be lost in the trees.
I think it's about expectations. You Can't expect carpet like greens for £10. THanks for watching Randy 👍👍👍
bad luck mate . . . nice round
Why is Stroke 18 the easiest hole on the Course?
Rocking one of your outfits from Thailand I see !!!
a well earned beer
Very frosty 👍👍👍
Geez you're putting wel! You can see the thick strip on your ball rolling end over end.
I love those Taylormade striped balls. I was using a couple of the green ones for putting practice at home. Tried them on the course and the darker blue and red ones are amazing! Just wish the compression was lower than 70 but you can't have everything!
Mmm. Worse rated course and an outfit to match😅. Well done James, yet another entertaining video. Time to head off for some winter sun and golf.
i love the layout of ellesmere port, with a bit of investment it could be great
Me too, it really flows nicely. Whoever designed it knew their stuff!
Missed you this time
What u wearing man - was it a charity golf game in fancy dress, or maybe you borrowed the clothes from Eddie Izzard 😂
I'm all for playing with thrift or cheap club sets I have a set myself. I don't think you should play with defective clubs though. Thanks for the video.
I was secretly hoping one would spectacularly break for the content! :-)
Driving the ball very well James.. and that 4 wood a bullet as well...
The driver game was good except there was zero rollout on this day which was a tad annoying. That 4 wood was sweet as a nut can't believe it was £1! 👍👍👍
Wasn’t that par 3 with a lost ball 3 off the tee? Therefore with a single putt it’s a bogey? What am I missing?
Yeah it was a bogey but it was up and down with the 2nd ball. First time in my life I've done that. Glad to catch it on camera 👍👍👍
I really enjoy watching your golf journey, you def have some potential... so why throw in the factor of the outdated clubs?... like golf isnt hard enough ha!
He's been doing better with them, than his regular set...You'd have difficulty wrenching the irons away from James, I think.
When you save that much on golf clubs you can afford to buy the highest quality garments. Seems like an alright round of golf to me!
Most of the other fellow golfers mentioned the outfit when on the course this day. Some others didn't mention it and I was thinking 'how are you talking to me with a straight face!' (or maybe they were colourblind?!)
Intro gets a like before tee off
Not sure if I should take the piss or admire you for what you are wearing. Keep it up lad.
Very concerned about this outfit. 😂
So the buggy cost more then the course fee lol 😂
The course looks better then my local course I used to be a member at lol
The clubs at £1 each were actually cheaper than what the buggy cost. I really like this course layout especially the 4 par-5s which you don't expect on cheaper courses.
Unlucky, good effort
Gotta put that 4 wood in the bag! Smashing with it!
It did go ridiculously well for a 20+ year old club! 👍👍👍
Poults would be proud.
James you rock! Great videos
I think 2 foxes were in the background on hole 9
were ist the Problem? You play a relaxed round . 👍👍😎😎 good Golfer can play with all Golf clubs on all golf courses as we see in the video.
Cheers Quax, I'm having fun experimenting with the older clubs 👍👍
3:39 jaysus
Wide right ! 👍👍
High James, Love your videos 👍
Hi James, have you ever measured your swing speed. What is it with the driver?
135 mph ball speed max with the driver
Thanks, I'm about the same, so there's hope for me to break 90. 😊
How do you get your handicap are you a member of a club?
I do it by the Golfshot app I have over 150+ rounds logged. It's very accurate as my hcp has drifted from 11.6 to 14.8. My club handicap would probably be a little lower as I play different courses all the time making course management errors
WOW funky threads
James…😂😂😂😂…….you look like a slice of Battenberg cake……..excellent
👍👍👍
Loving the outfit and admire u for using £1 clubs
Loved it, james. What more do you want for £30 including a buggy.
Best value golf in the area!
There are many worse couses than this one 😂
I agree, I really like the layout. The dog walkers, random people on the course and poor greens are what most of the bad reviews are about...
For £20 with a buggy that’s a bargain…probably wouldn’t have been that bad if hadn’t rained for 2 weeks straight prior to your game 😂😂😂😂
Groovy🕺👍
Should play Bowring Park. That’s a terribly rated course.
I just watched a video on it and on nearly every hole you can hear the motorway!
@@notaperfectgolfer3489 11 holes on one side of the motorway. 7 on the other. There are some nice holes to be fair. But the tee boxes and bunkers are the worst you’ll ever play.
Dressed for success.
Is that the outfit you wear when your in Bangkok 😂
I think it's a beautiful course 💁🏻
i don't think the course was as bad as your outfit 😂
Did you lose a bet to wear that outfit
Sorry James, I could not concentrate on this video because of you garish outfit, I see in the comments that some people liked your clothes, sadly I am not one of them !!
I think it was that green visor that did it? :-)
I thought the visor was the best bit !!@@notaperfectgolfer3489
I really enjoy watching your videos. You take us to some amazing golf courses. You play all 18 holes and you putt out. Most of us are also Not a perfect golfer. Thanks
No gimmies! 👍👍👍
