- Can I break 90? PART Two - EVERY SHOT IN 9 MINUTES
Part one - • EVERY SHOT of an 18 Ha...
Today I am playing at Pontefract & District Golf Course in Pontefract, Yorkshire.
I have been playing golf for over a year (beginner golfer) and my golf handicap is about 18.
This is a fantastic 18 hole course and I'm looking to break 90 for the first time at this course on the channel.

Watched your front 9 and back 9 videos very enjoyable to watch. Very chill vibe and nice to see you being honest about your golf game. Gives me confidence to go out there and work on my game as well. Keep up the great content!
Thanks dude, appreciate it 👍
You’ve got a good head about your game. You’ll soon be shooting low 80s regularly and I’ll bet it won’t be long before you throw in a sub 80 round. The greens look pretty slow over there but you show a confidence in those 4-5 footers. That will take you far. Thanks for the content. It’s nice to watch someone progressing through their game. Not all you tube golfers are scratch golfers.
Thanks Don, appreciate that mate. Yeah the greens aren't the quickest, enables you to have the confidence to hit them a little firmer. 👍
Great words of wisdom at the end, it's easy to look back at a round and feel disappointed because so many shots were left on the table, but hey that's golf! Trying to achieve that "perfect round" is what keeps us coming back. 🙌
You're completely right Brandon! It's that 'I won't make those mistakes' next time mentality that keeps you hooked isn't it. Cheers mate!
Well played Luke, back 9 always gets nervy when you shoot a great score on the front 9. I’ve just subscribed, I really enjoy real golf, from similar handicapper to myself.
Thanks! Yeah I definitely let that front nine score get in my head a little
Great round Luke. You’re right in that you left a few out there - great to know when scoring so well anyway! Great content thanks
Keeps you coming back for more doesn't it 😂 Thanks Daniel!
Marvelous front nine Luke. The back nine was a solid round of Golf as well and as you said those mistakes happen from time to time and we just need to accept those. I would say you got up and down quite well to keep a steady pace throughout the back nine. Can’t wait to see you break 80 on a regular basis, which will happen very soon at the pace you are improving. Cheers mate
The up and downs are fast becoming the strength of my game I feel (very fitting! 😂). Thanks as always Kevin 💪
Solid round followed by some solid philosophy mate, well done, great progress and a great video - keep them coming!
Thanks Chris, appreciate it 👍
Currently suffering with flu so watching basically all of your videos 😂! Bloody love the channel! Would love to play a round with you mate
Ahh Tom I feel your pain, I'm at home feeling sorry for myself with flu too! Appreciate you watching mate 👍 Feel well soon!
Little tip with the driver mate if your always slicing. Turn your wrist slightly inward to the left to close the face of the driver. I was told to do this as when I started I used to always slice the ball and ever since I’ve added some distance to my drives and now hit a draw 👌
Thanks man, I'll give it a go 👍
I’m a very similar level to you, have to admit I was jealous after the front 9, thought you were going to break 80! Really enjoy the vids, keep the coming. Hcp must be lower now.
Aahh so did I Ryan! Think that's why I was a little disappointed when I finished. Cheers mate !
Well played! A good round, especially that front 9. You’re still improving 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks Humblequest! 👍
Well played buddy, love the videos mate. Exactly the same as where I'm at, hit 87 yesterday with so many errors 😫. Looking forward to more content
Cheers Matthew! I know that feeling mate!
Lots of good stuff there. Think you summed it up perfectly at the end in that it's the silly mistakes around the green that cost you. Some great scrambling only to lose it a bit on the green. Obviously have the potential to get very close to or even under the magic 80.
That's the goal David! I'm hoping steady and consistent practice will get me there by the end of next year 👍 Cheers mate!
Great content. I today got back out to my local track where a month ago played a 22 over par, a good one for me as my game was trending nicely at the time. Fast forward to today, a month later and only 1 round of 9 holes played since after family visiting from Europe for nearly 4 weeks, and I shot 37 over par on similar distances and conditions. It is interesting how, even at the high-handicap level, time off can really affect your round. Mostly the ball-striking suffers and a bit of feel for green speeds, however I always try to look at the good from any round I play, like you and your two front-nine birdies. The last hole for me today was a perfectly pin-high strike on the closing par-3, a near perfect chip to get me within 1 foot for par, the only one on the card. And that alone is enough to get me excited to play again soon. Funny game, golf is. Look forward to your next round
Totally the right mentality to have I think Cory! You've got to take your wins where you find them and make sure you enjoy them 👍 Thanks!
Great round Luke. Your looks into the camera are great! Good or bad.
😂 Cheers Jeff!
A good round like your course management when you get in trouble
Thanks Rob 👍
I was waiting for this, gutted to see the crumble at the end. Much the same as you get that one 9 low 40s then the other always creeps up haha. 85 though 👊
Had been thinking of making a channel for a while and your content was the final push I needed.
😭 I know mate! Always next time though. Yeah I can't be upset with 85 at all! That's awesome mate, best of luck with it!
remember scoring 23 stableford points once on the front 9 in a competition when playing off an 18 handicap. The worst part was the bloody American who was marking my card wouldn't shut up. Finished with 35 points. Never constantly tell someone their score if they are doing well.
Totally agree Paul. Has a massive effect on your round most of the time
Still a cracking round that my lad 🙌
Cheers mate. Enjoy that tub!
Well in mate
Cheers Rory
Well played mate. Great front 9. The difficulty is keeping it together for the whole 18. It'll come soon though, I'm sure.
Thanks! Yeah that's it Ian, just need to play more! 😂
Tough second 9 is ponty and 85s a great score . The 2 par 5s are card wreckers as is the 10th if you don’t get a good drive .
Yeah it's a good test Cousy 👍
@@UpDownGolf right enjoyed it . We’ll done
A wee bit gutted for u there pal but at the end of the day a score of 85 is a good days golf in my opinion 👍🏻
Horrible start to your back 9 and after the front 9 it gets in your head a bit and affects your game from there on after 🏌️♂️
Anyways Luke allways a pleasure to watch and keep up the great work on the channel 👍🏻⛳️🏴
That's how I came off the course feeling too Jason! Mad really considering the score but you're right, the front nine almost sets an expectation doesn't it. Funny old game! Thanks as always for watching 💪
Good knock mate
Cheers Josh 👍
Watched a couple of your videos now. You're kind of stabby with the putter. Have you thought about switching to a mallet style? They allow for an easier stroke as you can let the weight of the head do all of the work.
I used to use a mallet and was noticeably worse with it. I feel like I have more control with the blade
Still a good round 👌 enjoyed watching
Thanks Jamie!
Congratulations on your best round. There seems to be curse when your front 9 score is really good, then the back 9 blows up. It is the opposite when the front 9 is bad, the back is better.
I think it is a mind thing and your expectations for the round get crossed.
You're totally right Dave, it always seems to work out that way. Thanks for watching!
Great round, kept it going on the back 9. Curious trying the very long putt from fairway on 12 when you chipping has been so clutch recently.
Thanks Monty! Yeah when I was editing the video I thought the exact same thing. I'm not sure what made me putt it
@@UpDownGolf thanks for the reply. I putt with my fairway wood if I’m that distance and not chipping. More meat to get it through the grass and onto the green. Good luck.
Encouraging video.. well done on your best score. My take on things at this early stage in taking up golf at 55… take the positives…don’t dwell on the duffs… everyone does. Enjoy the challenge 🏌️♂️
Totally agree Gerry! The challenge is the fun of it!
So much potential when you look at your scorecard....imagine shaving those dbles down to bogies.
Well played.
Aahh I know Jon! 😂 It's coming. Thanks as always 👍
I want to see the tape of the first nine.
It's on the channel Mark 👍
That was usually my problem I’d have a good nine and a bad nine…if I could have eliminated those bad nines my scores would have been so much better…
I’m still bad for this too
Solid overall round man. One thing I noticed, your tendency to "pull" some of your shots might have to do with your shoulders being aligned left which causes your swing to go that way as well. I know some people don't want to change their swing, but consider checking out Tom Saguto's ruclips.net/video/s1J7cOahZCE/видео.html video about shoulder alignment. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Cody, always looking to improve! I'll check it out 👍
