  • My Quest on Golf's Most Diabolical Course
    A round of golf at Ellesmere Port municipal golf course in England. It's a par 71 parkland course that was 5947 yards from the men's yellow tees.
    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...
    To contact me about anything: npgolfer@yahoo.com
    App for shot tracer: Shot Tracer Pro
    App for scorecard: Golfshot
    Spoiler alert: I actually really like the layout at Ellesmere Port Golf Club. Especially the 4 par 5 holes which are great.
    What's in the Bag?:
    Callaway Big Bertha FT3 10° draw (2005) - slightly broken
    Driver: Ping G5 10.5° reg (2005) - slightly broken
    4 wood: Callway Big Bertha Steelhead plus (2000)
    5 wood: Mizuno T-Zoid (2000)
    Irons: 4-PW Taylormade Burner Oversize (1996)
    Sand wedge: 56° Taylormade (unknown)
    Sand wedge: Lynx Prowler wide sole (unknown)
    Putter: Ben Sayers 33' (unknown)
    Ball played in this round:
    Taylormade Tour Response (70 compression)
    Wilson Duo Soft (40 compression)
    Callaway Supersoft (47 compression)

  • @Brainlesscheesy
    @Brainlesscheesy 11 месяцев назад

    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.

    • @notaperfectgolfer3489
      @notaperfectgolfer3489  11 месяцев назад
