I live in Wales and play at a course in Brecon. Long shot but it would great to play with you 😘
As a UK based playa, i always assumed my 23 handicap must be the fault of my clubs but now I realise its actually down to the ridiculously tough UK courses! This is very reassuring, thanks Golf Sidekick!
Same off 21 lol. I definitely wouldn't play off 2 in Thailand though 😂
Love this comment. So i can assume it happen to me. I am in Indonesia btw😂😂
Indonesia soil too soft lol
100% this! 😆
Move to Oz
I know I'm not having a good round when I hit a putt and someone says "Don't worry, we'll find it".
Welcome to the UK Matt ❤⛳
Classic lol
Here to pay respects to the toilet mentioned at the start
Porcelain props indeed.
I'm currently on the toilet while I watch this video!
May it rest in pieces.
Pray for the cleaner who had to scrape it clean
As others have said Matt thank you for posting this, as much as I hope the golf gets back to normal for you, it was refreshing to see this to realize it happens to everybody. Golf sure is a fickle mistress
Agreed, very fickle, and so fine at the same time 😉 my play has been stiff but a few rounds in, and some of that practice stuff, it's getting there...
@@Oakeyblokeit’s so frustrating, can practice and on the range hit driver really well, playing it is roll up for the mystery tour.
I can follow up a bad shot with one worse or have rounds esp as the rough has grown losing 6 balls
@@guyr7351 to be honest I wasn't great at the range last night, so am hoping I play well on the course tomorrow, since it usually goes the other way around 😂🤞🏼
We'll get there, but not so soon that we get bored...is what I tell myself.
@@Oakeybloke never get bored, it’s the WTF when you play a shot and the result throws you. Last night 3W off tee, first hole pulled way left, missed the adjoining fairway and in the trees. Recovery shot also goes 30 yards left of where aiming. But gets through the trees other side of fairway, I then hit a wedge to 6 inches. Easy par 😁👍
How many not how
Just remember player, your teaching videos have helped others who play these conditions everyday. You are still the man to us. That's golf, enjoy the day and your pals.
I know everyone is saying it, but thank you. I spiraled so bad my last round that I have anxiety to play again. It helps knowing that it happens to great golfers too.
Thanks for posting this Matt! This is why I I'm not a better golfer because I live in the UK 🙂I've shot 86 but I regularly score mid to high 90's. 103 is my worst score of the year but if keep the driver in the bag it usually guarantees a mid 90's score.
I’m a 30 handicap. Worst score this year was a 116. Mostly shoot in the 100-105 range. Actually broke 100 twice with the help of the Playa in Chief.
I also greatly appreciate you posting this. It’s the integrity and honesty of your channel that keeps me tuned. Thanks Matt.
😂oh man. How good it is to see Playa in Chief play EXACTLY like his followers😂 being to 💯 relate to EVERY stroke in this video is amazing. It's so refreshing to know that it happens to most Playas. Awesome video, Playa in Chief!
Dude, thank you for posting this. I needed the consolation. I shot a 90 this season and then followed it up with a 41 for 9 holes a few days later. My goal is to be shooting in the 70s without too much heartache. But sometimes golf gets the best of us. If I recall tiger shot an 85 in tourney once, and Freddy couples carded an 89. I'm sure there are plenty of other examples.
Oh that was me last week man, Friday I played 9 holes at my home course which is honestly a super easy course, I shot my worst round for 9 since I was probably 12. Sunday, exact same course, shot a personal best 18. I shot a 41 on the front 9, which on Friday I shot, and get ready for this one.. 50 fucking 8 😂😂😂 17 stroke difference over 9
To Tigers credit...He was only 3 years old with that 85...🙂
@@davejohn255 he shot an 85 at the 2015 memorial. I wouldn't hold any score to a golfer under 10 years old lol
Sarcasm is not easy to spot is it
@@sampilcher7196 I mean hell, you can do the same in one round. I'm in a similar boat to the OP, and yet over the weekend I played a round with a 48 on the front and then a 37 on the back. If you offered me an 85 off the first tee, I think I'd be okay with it, but... not like that front 9.
From what I saw, you abandoned the way of the playa. Bad couple holes at first, and a downward spiral after that! I love your channel for helping hacks like myself hold our head up high after a bad shot. This is the only time I've ever seen you not demonstrate that. You looked like me out there, and I fugging loved it! Stay strong PIC!!!
Way of the Playa dictates i would have walked off after 6 holes. But i had company so i stayed. That’s where i betrayed the way. Better to have a sausage bap and coffee instead.
@@GolfSidekick Would you have really walked off playing alone?
@@Skilhgt 100% would have walked off
Rather than target a specific score, I have found that targeting a BAC of .05-.15 is more realistic and more fun.
I'm sober enough to know what I'm doing, and drunk enough to really enjoy it.
Tough day in the office Matty! 40hc here checking in to say you're still my hero - your videos completely changed the way I approach the game mentally and honestly how I approach life's challenges as well. Keep your chin up and I'm sure you'll be back to kicking ass very soon!
Quality to see Matt here in the UK, "Wales, England" 😂
Wonder when he was here, with how cold it looked! Hopefully he stayed long enough to enjoy the sun...and the rock hard fairways 🪨🙃
Welcome to the UK. Thanks for showing us your human 😂. Great vids. Keep it up Matt.
I love that you’ve come and attempted to play in the uk! It’s way more difficult than people expect
I had a +30 in a medal yesterday (8.6 HCP), so thanks for making me feel a bit better Playa!
My home course has similar conditions, and I've had some wretched scores there sometimes. The upside is, it makes regular courses seem way less formidable. Everyone who's played the game has had rounds like this, bravo to you for posting it up Matt.
Wow, really needed this video. "started to get a bit depressed about golf" describes my last couple of weeks. Knowing I'm not the only one that just can't seem to do anything right on the course makes it better. Just gotta play through it.
Good on ya for posting this. I’m off a 3 and have had a couple of rounds like this recently. Swing disappeared and the harder I tried to fix it the worse it got. I cold topped two 3w off the tee and the old boys I was playing with were seriously questioning my handicap.
Most people question handicaps when they are ignorant of how things work Playa. Wadda topper
30+ years have taught me that the harder I try, the worse it gets.
Trying easier can turn it around.
Find out what will help you get back to normal.
I recently returned to the UK and played two rounds in the 100's...i have got very comfortable with the nice Bermuda grass in my home of Tenerife. it felt like i had forgotten how to play golf!
Fair play for putting this on Matt.... I'm off to Thailand so I can play 2 over now..
Love the reaction of the dude on the green on #7!!!
We all have these kinda rounds, it's inevitable. I'm glad you made the most of it and tried to have a good time and be a great golf partner and not silk in the pain and bring everyone down. That was special and not enough players do that.
So true, in golf 95% of the time we play as solo players so if the score is bad only one person to blame. I’ll take pleasure from playing partners doing well as I always hope if I’m messing up down not being their game down
It's great you're here in UK! I often have your break 100 and 90 seminars in my thoughts and sometimes the courses here do not allow them to work there magic. I think UK golf is brutally unique. In winter we can have half the green frozen and solid while the other is wet and soggy 🤣
In summer we're normally sunburnt and just trying to survive ( im bald and ginger it becomes a and death situation).
Saying that since spring the greens have been more consistent and ive dropped 2 shots by using GIOTG. I will break 90 this year before the weather turns again!
Look forward to more UK content ✌
I’d be interested to see a lot of guys play links instead of these parkland courses. Very fun on the links
@@GolfSidekick I played Silloth on solway in May. Broke 100 which was really good for me. Was my first links experience
@@sambojones7165 I played my first links in May, different experience
@@ste-the-heathen I’ll be playing there playa
@@GolfSidekick cant wait to see it my friend! I wish you luck. If you're off the fairway you're in the shiza. Shame I'm not close by, I would love to of met you. You've become my life guru, let alone golf ✌
Super excited for another golf sidekick tours the world. The USA trip last year had some bangers.
I really want to do a UK trip one day as well.
Echo a lot of the comments here. Seeing the calibre of playa you are Matt and shooting in the 90s makes me feel better about my game. My PB is 88 and I'm a 22 hcap here in the UK. Great and honest video. It's still a great game and keeps us coming back!
Yeszzz need that windbreaker. Colour is awesome and seems comfortable. Updates coming. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
You are human after all, thanks for posting, I couldn’t hit a barn door the other day, 103, then hit 85 yesterday.
Keep up the great video work & welcome to the UK. 😊
Nice to see you here in Wales Matt. Just a heads up, Wales is not in England 😉
Ahhh, the classic "chip chip putt putt" for double on 8...
Thanks for showing us this side as well and not just the Instagram Golf...
Welcome to the UK Playa! 😅
I started the year trying to break 90 regularly, had a trip to Celtic Manor and shot 114 on the TwentyTen course and have struggled to break 100 ever since. I have watched your whiteboard episodes on breaking 100 & 90 countless times to ingrain it in my brain and have enjoyed the episodes with your coach too. We battle on but mostly just glad to get out there and play more than I ever have done before.
2010 is a bitch I have played it 4 times if you’re not willing to respect it and play bogy golf it chews you up. I am not willing to do that so enjoy the Montgomery a lot more
@@mdkhatsun I enjoyed the 2010, just not my score 🤷🏼♂️ We did the Monty too and that was a slog. Was a nice day but so wet under foot. 5.5 hours to get round and those hills 🙈
@@mclinch82 oooosh, thats a long round, when it gets wet there its terrible with all the slopes. But none the less its a stunning venue
I really appreciate you posting this video. As someone who was regularly breaking 90 and occasionally 80, I suddenly had a couple of blowouts and was ready to throw golf in. If the Playa-in-Chief can have the same happen, I have hope again. Precious, precious hope.
My worst score was 102 on Kiawah Island Ocean Course, in 6 hours of driving rain and a 3 club wind. Back in February. Still, I was in the middle of the pack in my flight of the tournament, 7 strokes back. That’s how bad the conditions were! The next day I won the 2-day event with an 84 on the Kiawah Turtle Point course. Wearing my Waddaplaya shirt, of course. Because the science cannot be disputed. 😊
The Ocean Course is no joke, even during great weather! Always guaranteed a wind gust on the back 9.
Thank you for sharing. Sorry that you struggled so much, but gives me hope of improving. Started playing golf a lot more frequently this year and can see improvements. I need lessons to sort out direction to improve scores. Short game is my worst bit. Shot my first 83 this last weekend on a parkland course near me, where I normally shoot 90 to 100.
Playa, I started watching your videos last year at my lowest, full of pride and anger , I wasn’t getting better. Had unrealistic expectations of myself. I was a 95 player after playing for 7 years. I lost the ego, worked on putting, chipping and mind. I’m working on my 30 yard shot one dayI found my swing. One episode you mentioned something to in regard to your attitude on the course is correlated to attitude in life. That resonates with me and told myself, I may always suck but I love the game and I’m going to ruin it if I don’t change. So I just stopped getting mad, stopped ruining other peoples time when my game fell apart and let go of the pride. Last Saturday I hit a 82 and could have easily been a 78 but duffed a couple chips. In that, i swing with no tension, not concerned what people think and now I’m straighter and longer than 10 years ago. I was told and read that if after 3 years, If you haven’t broke in the 80s then you never will and if you come over the top, then you always will. I’m hitting a little draw done. It can be done and attitude is the main factor. Thanks for your channel and positive energy.
Haha I play better golf with a good attitude, (which I learned here) I find myself saying double bogey playa... could of been worse, good job lol
Thank God for @GolfSidekick Always pure honesty from him, showcasing the best and the worst. So much more relatable than the other golf "influencers".
Welcome to the UK Matt! Talk is through the wedge’s you need here to help us! 🙈🙏
Had a round a month ago start like that. Made my mind up that I was walking off by the 4th! Went and enjoyed the rest of the day at home watching sport on TV with the dogs
Had a quick 9 holes today just up the road from the Rolls shot a 10 over 44 just playing smarter golf that you advise not bad for a 28 handicapper 💪
Invited my brother down to play with me. I'm a 22 handicap and usually shoot mid 90's. Completely blew up on 6 or 7 holes and scored 136 on the day. My worst score in two years. Went out with the same brother the next week and it was reversed. I got my best score on that particular course (+20) while he scored far above 100.
Some days are for the boyfriends, some are for the dogs.
22 handicap maximum score is 130 for handicap purposes indeed. But if counting medal then it could be infinite.
@@jakkofn it was pretty terrible. I had a very busy six months at work and couldn't play all that time. This was my first outing in six months and it was a total melt down
@@jakkofn I shot an 81 and the literal very next day shot a 121. Golf is a weird sport my man. I'm a 7 hdcp now and I've shot as high as 98 this year and as low as 78.
@@jakkofn wasn't a 7 at the time, this was a couple years ago. Want to say I was a 20 so the 81 was the more unusual one haha. Combination of a very easy course and couldn't miss with the driver and a very difficult course and the driver was off.
Sorry you had such a sucky day. Thanks for showing us the good the bad and the ugly. Makes us regular hacks feel better, knowing it can happen even to a good golfer like you. Better days ahead, my friend.
I had this experience last week. I got to the point where I just got worse and worse after each hole. Also I had played near the beach for a couple weeks but when I came back home the clay and hard dirt seemed impossible to play on. I’m glad I’m not the only person that has those rounds and/or weeks of golf.
weirdly to see my hero waddaplaya stink the gaffe out on my hometurf makes me feel great cos we forget how hard the conditions are over here and blame ourselves..jus shows even the top players struggle
Worst score was a 97 so far. Had 30km winds, rain, and was 8 Celsius. Literally the only person on the course but I still had fun. In normal conditions 89 which I would be elated to shoot when I first found this channel 4 years ago. Come to Canada sometime eh?
Thanks for posting video of a bad round - I enjoy your content and just shows that anyone can just have a bad day. That par 3 18th is a beautiful finishing hole.
Yeah everyday is different. Some good some bad
good on you for posting this. every golfer can relate and knows what this feels like. im off 7 and scored 96 on recently and it just went from bad to worse. had a shank, top and chunk in the round too. lots of swearing and i threw a club at my bag... i never usually do any of that and am normaly super positive... "why the fk do i try to get better at this game" i thought... and then i watched this video and remembered, it can happen to the best of us once in a while. dont sweat it. better days are ahead of us !
Yeah need the better days to make it all worthwhile
16 handicap here, I stopped counting after 110 during this one round last week... I almost quit golf after that shitshow.
We’ve ALL been there mate, appreciate the honesty!
Wow this caught me off guard, I actually just got back from a tournament where I posted rounds of 77 and 91. Really needed this brotha, ready to get back to work!!
GIR, GIR+1, attack when you should. When on the course, it's a gift and not a chore.
The inspector Gadget theme had me laughing towards the end
Oh look matt plays like us in this weather 😂
As someone who is proud to be both Welsh and English, I can assure you saying that Wales is a part of England would not go down well around these parts ! Love the videos though 😂
Love it that Wales did a swap with England - Monmouth became Welsh and the Scousers became English😂
Great Vid!!
HC: 21
Best score this year: +20
Worst score: +40 on a terribly windy day!
Golf is amazing, just when you figured it all out... it reminds you you are mortal! By the way, you were probably distracted by your poor play that day, but views at the 2.0 6.15 and 12.23 mark were spectacular! I hope you didn't just pass those up and just take them in and appreciate what you got to play. 😎
Welcome to the UK. Wet 8 months of the year and rock solid for 4 months.
Matt thanks for the vid and hope you played on some of the Cotswolds courses on your trip to the UK - Cleeve Hill would be a good one. Limestone base and sheep keep the fairways nice and firm
It happens, and it tends to happen when playing a course for the first time (nevermind playing a different type of turf/landscape as Matt does here). Super hard to make a smooth, confident swing in such circumstances.
I’m a member as The Rolls. You can still see the marks where you hacked apart the course 😂
Tough day for the Playa in Chief….😢. Worry not of course, because what follows the D game! As sure as night follows day, and autumn follows summer, the C, then B then A game will be back. 🤞🤞💪😁
I played for the first time in 7 years. I scored 101 and used to be a 3 handicapper and have scored 5 under in a round for my best round of 67. I can still pound the ball over 300 meters. It’s just the trick of hitting the correct fairway, avoiding hero shots, double chips and three stabs on the green.
Whaddahacka! Great to see this video, letting us know that everyone can struggle. Love the content, keep it up.
I really enjoyed this episode. Interesting notes around 6:30, it's something I've experienced as well here in southern Norway where the surface can be quite enjoyable early morning, but come after 11 and the ground is unforgiving meaning getting a good high chip can be extremely taxing. Low tees will get you rolling for days though.
Definitely takes a while to get into the northern european mindset of park courses.
Cool ... played Bjaavann Kristiansand area and loved it so much. My nr 1 course to have played. Vid of that on my channel. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Can you talk a bit more about the Northern European mindset for golf? I live in Southern California where the golf is so different, but I am preparing for a trip to Europe to play--probably in the UK. I played a round in France last month but it wasn't so bad actually. The ball flew almost 30% further for me, and the greens played super slow. I was no using my clubs but I had a sand wedge with a graphite shaft and found bumping and running with a 9 iron more sensible with the clubs I had. Usually in California bump and run is not easy to do because the grass here is very sticky and will stop many balls that touch the ground. The greens on the other hand end up being quite fast
@@thekoreantraveler it’s very weather dependent in uk, you need to adapt a lot to the conditions and then can change rapidly . If it’s hard and fast then you often need to land before greens and run it up, if it’s damp the greens can be ultra receptive. Part of the fun….
@@iangraham705 In theory that's what I love about the game that i can't get at home where the play is more or less repetitive, and the only variation comes with the green speed which is a bit dependent on the weather. The plan is to try to get to the UK in September, and I am thinking the weather might not be so great. I am trying to soak up as much info as possible playing in bad weather as to not take a trip and be frustrated the whole time!
@@thekoreantraveler in theory September should be fine, let me know where you are in uk, happy to set up a round
One Of Us!!! One Of Us!!! That's golf my friend. Have a beer, forget the round and try again.
The course I play is now baked firm, standard scratch of a par 72 course was 77 this weekend, conditions can be hard.
Glad to see this as a 2.7 hcp, shot 87 in the recent comp and just stank the place out. (Shot a -1 gross the following day)
You need a good base layer and a fleece to play when it is 53 degrees out and fleece tights if windy. The coat is the issue. Signed, midwest november golfer.
And despite all that it was a good day. Thanks matt.
I'm an eight handicapper and I recently shot 100 (+27) at Hills Sports Club in Mölndal. 🤣
It was a fairly windy day at a former European Tour venue.
Got my swing in order shortly after that...
104 15 Handicap is my worst this year, but i had a stretch of 4 holes level Par haha
This video gave me so much comfort. I totally lost my swing and hit back to back 100’s despite playing off 12 at the time. It’s a tough game at times 😂
If you find yourself in north east Scotland (Aberdeen area) hit me up.
Waddaman. I’ll be in Aberdeen in august.
@@GolfSidekick awesome, loads of good golf up here! Personal favourite is Cruden Bay but there’s loads to choose from, both parkland and links. Let me know if you need something set up.
@@gregmatthews6482 Cruden Bay is on the list. and royal aberdeen and trump international
@@GolfSidekick Great choices!
Been looking forward to your trip to UK. Shot 94 on Sunday and 88 today. Lost seven balls on Sunday and five penalty strokes today.
Also, this video validates my own experience. When I go way down to the US southeast (Florida, South Carolina) on Bermuda grass and sandy soil, I tend to play much better than when I play hilly, hard clay, bluegrass and bent grass northeastern courses. It’s really noticeable to me.
thats so funny, from texas, when i go play bentgrass i fall in love with putting. 😂
Love the video as always Matt!
Golf has twisted me in knots so far this year. I went from regularly breaking 80 last year to barely being able to break 100 this year.
I know it's all about my mental game for me as I have a massive mental block on the tee and just can't seem to get the thing in play.
It's costing me a lot of balls but I'm determined to get it back, golf is too much fun to quit.
No one goes from breaking 80 to barely breaking 100 you must have been playing a par 3 course and moved on to a real course lol
@@GoodDaySa I would have said the same until about 3 months ago. I play a few different courses in my local area, none of them par 3 (though perhaps I should).
I've been making adjustments to my swing and I haven't got my head around them yet and it goes to show what a massive role confidence plays in golf.
happens often avtually. it seems a lot of people dont play much golf with other people
there are so many struggle people have - huge swings and roundabouts in golf and life
I had my first ever chip in on the 7th at Rolls nice to see you get one too! One of my favourite courses to play
I know you feel bad about that round, but it makes me feel better about my 92 last week. The tuba music is perfect.
I know I shouldn't but I am loving the struggles as it is so relatable. This video makes me really pleased with the progress I am making as a UK golfer. 10 degrees that is still shorts and t-shirt here in the UK 😂
This is you on a bad day. This is me on my best day :/. Been playing for a year
Like that ninth hole. A beautiful view of Winfred Strokington III 's home.
Damn thought that was Daniel Radcliffes
@@GolfSidekick Maybe you are correct.
Finally see some relatable golf !! I only play parkland courses, on the other side of the Channel, I now feel a bit better about my scores playing off 18. heck, maybe i can get to single-figure hcp!
I noticed your tempo was quicker than in other video's, maybe some tension or exitement from being there :)
Keep at it Matt!! Love your channel
As you travel round the UK you will find the courses vary in texture as well exposure to the wind. I live in the north east - regularly score 85-95 but worst this year was 104 (at the Brabazon set up for the British Masters so didn't feel too bad!) You'll get used to it and start dismembering the courses I'm sure :)
Golf is a humbling game! At least the sun was shining...
love your videos. will play in Thailand, South Africa, allevers, one day. maybe see you there ⛳
Spring and autumn are the scoring months here. When it goes pan hard in the summer I find I lose control of the ball as it bounds along into hazards. Holding greens is difficult without perfect strike and good height. Failing that the bump and run is your friend.
Ah the joy of U.K. summer golf, in the winter when the weather is kak and it’s U.K. is really chilly. It’s a challenge too.
As an Englishman I know your pain.
Some days I really want to just quit golf altogether. I don't practice every day, but I play and practice enough to where I should be seeing progress. Sometimes it just doesn't happen though. I just assumed Matty boom boom would never shoot in the 90s or even high 80s. I know this round probably made you so upset, but I really appreciate it. It was not in vain. We shall press on to golf another day!
I've had a horrible few rounds in a row so this makes me feel better...sorry.
That puffer jacket tho 😂
My kind of course conditions playing like I do, gives me understanding that it's not just me! So I will continue trying to adapt to these course conditions.
Growing up I used to live in Texas and down there it would be Bermuda grad golf all the way, and every summer we would go up to Utah which would have more bent grass courses. As someone who has made the transition to playing Bermuda to bent grass, I can attest that it is way different. Bent grass feels sticky and tends to grab the club way more, but at the end of the day you can’t over think it, you just need to return to the fundamentals and focus on swinging smooth and accelerating through the ball. I find that the second I’m making excuses for a bad round it’s already too late because then I’ve convinced myself that something is wrong, when having bad holes and bad rounds are really 100% normal and happen all the time.
I’ve played this course and it’s not easy so fair play to Matt putting this up warts and all… the greens are very tough as in hitting and reading them for putts
You see his head drop after five holes and unlike Matt we see him battle in other videos… no criticism it happens to us all… enjoy the UK Matt 👍👍👍
@@jarrodflett3348 totally different body language to other videos, interesting seeing a good golfer struggle with what seems like a very normal course to someone in uk
And welcome! Can't wait to see you play on some Scottish links tracks. What's your itinerary? I promise I won't stalk you... much. Make sure you get used to it for Rick's youtube Masters. I've been bigging you up for the challenge all year!!
Ranged from 87 to 105 this year 😂. Played about 25 rounds
Sorry for your troubles here Matt but this video has cheered me up no end. I would think just about every UK course will be like this right now, looking sort of lush and green but actually pretty dry and/or baked. Backspin on the greens is just a dream for most average golfers here, you have to play short and allow for the rollout. Maybe all us UK golfers should move to Thailand where the livin' is easy!
Not a problem if there is run up. I agree. But Course needs to be designed for that. Wait for the lytham video and porthcawl. You’ll love it
Rolls is about 90 minutes from where I live. I played in a Stableford comp there off the whites a few years ago. Tough course, Manged to get around 'blob free' but still only managed about 30 points. A lot of hills, most of them upwards and a beaacchhh of a finishing par 3.
Props for the collab with the hairy golfer!
Thanks for sharing! Golf can be hard. Your tips have helped me break 100.
