Just perfect. I’m so glad to be part of this film that you guys produced. Matt has done masterful work showing my pal Jim’s story and showcasing my part of Scotland. Bravo NLU 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Robbie it just proves how golf is like a glue that bonds people together and enables you to create friends for life. Anyway that's enough buttering you up when can I book my weeks stay at yours ? Lol . Take care pal .
I lost my son nearly 8 years ago, and picked up golf again for the same reasons Jim had for making that initial trip back to Scotland. So thank you NLU, and thank you Jim for sharing your son's story as well as your healing journey. This film reminds me of why we continue to play this frustratingly wonderful game, to know that our sons are still with us, to hear their voices and feel their presence on every shot, on every hole, on every warm bench overlooking a serene sun-kissed vista.
This has to be one of the best pieces of golf media in the last ten years. Such a heart-wrenching story
As a Scot, I must say this is without a doubt the best showing of our courses I’ve ever seen. A truly compelling story. Thank you Jim for sharing and thank you NLU for bringing this to us. Tremendous work Matt Golden🏴🏌️♂️
I’m not sure what took me so long to watch this video but I’m so happy I did. My father took up golf after my sister passed away 30 years ago this May. I believe it saved his life. I soon followed and it gave us almost 25 more years of special times to share together. Thanks for sharing Jim’s story and everything about the wonderful people and places in Scotland.
Sat here with a massive lump in my throat, ready to go and sit on that bench like Jim.
My father introduced me to golf in the late 80’s from watching the Masters late at night here in the UK to taking me to my first Open in ‘96 at Royal Lytham followed by subsequent opens and golfing trips in Scotland. We lost him suddenly in 2012 just after my first child was born. As I take my children to various pitch and putts and driving ranges I pray they one day get the bug so I can give them the same quality time that my Dad gave me.
NLU breaking new ground. God bless Jim and the NLU team. You're making a difference in people's lives. Please keep this up.
Shout out Matt Golden. What a film. Everyone involved should be incredibly proud of this. Thanks for sharing. Really beautiful.
This proves that the greatest golf experiences of one’s life often do not equate with expensive green fees. Walk the land to move your soul.
This is unbelievable, y'all. I hope every fan of the game gets a chance to watch this.
It makes me want to simultaneously have a beer with Jim, go to Scotland, hug my kids and call my dad.
My fav comment 😊👌🏻
As a dad with a golf-obsessed 3 year old, cried my eyes out 5 times while reading the article. I'm going to be a wreck. Bless you Jim.
I don’t know why I hit play to this video while I’m flying with my fam. By the end, Im trying to hold it all in and tears start to come out. My 3 yr old notices and she says , “Dad, it’s okay we can try to play golf in Boston this weekend” Thank you Jim for sharing your story. May you find some inner peace through everything you have experienced.
From all of us who love golf, from all of us who love this part of Scotland, from all of us with sons...what a beautiful, moving gem of a film. Thank you Jim, Tron and the NLU team.
I struggle to comprehend how NLU just keeps topping project after project. It's criminal how underrated this channel is!
Can’t find the words to do this justice. The best I can come up with is this is a wonderful tribute to Jordan, to Jim and all the people who love them. Doff of the cap.
As an obsessive Scottish golfing dad, this film was both a joy and heart wrenching to watch. Wonderfully documented lads, a true credit to your journey as filmmakers. Jim's book has just arrived and I look forward to reading it after watching the film. I feel that Scottish Golf & Visit Scotland should also be complimenting you on your "free" advertising of our Hidden Gems.
I'd heard Jim tell his moving story as part of a NLU related podcast and when I saw that this content was going to be posted I knew it would be powerful. I told my 4 sons that Dad was going downstairs to watch a RUclips video and cry. And cry I did. I made it as far as the image of that battered old Dunlop ball. Melancholic, soulful and poignant. Thank you to all involved in bringing this to the tiny screens of the world...it would not be lost on the big screen.
So great to see you guys re-connect with George from Cullen. A delightful chap.
Beautiful. I’ve been a golf sicko for as long as I can remember and my dad has, despite our differences, always supported me. Now a dad myself, to an 8yr old who’s obsessed with golf… thank you for reminding me to treasure these times. Thank you
My second son was born 4 weeks ago. I balled my eyes out multiple times during this film. Inspiring storytelling, aspirational vulnerability. Thank you Jim and NLU.
Man … as a dad of 2 young boys this video hit me really hard. Respect to Jim for putting himself out there in this sort of venue. Keep pushing man.
Massive props to everyone involved in this production. Incredible stuff.
This has to be the best film NLU have ever made. The story the people makes me sad but fills me with happiness. Thank you
Beautiful presentation. Story, scenery, music…..very well done. Yes Jim, you are loved by so many and Jordan will never be forgotten. Feel the love and prayers when you need it most. Proud of you Todd.❤️
I watched this last night with my son who was born a week ago. This film really hit me. Thank you Jim for sharing this with us and to NLU for documenting Jim’s story in such a genuine way. I can’t wait to take him to Scotland for a golf trip when he’s old enough.
Phenomenol. This came out at 1am in the UK. Was worth the wait. Proper, proper production with a heartbreaking story❤️
The quality of production in the NLU videos is UNBELIEVABLE. And thank you Mr Hartsell for sharing his story with us 🙏
This blew my mind. What a man, what a community, what a story of golf and life.
I'm so thankful for this. Golf with friends has saved my life for a number of reasons and this helped me gain perspective as to why I couldn't explain it. The world is harsh and difficult but the fellowship of friends can help us endure. What a gift this is.
I went and woke up my son to tell him I loved him after watching this
Wow so touching and beautiful. I have one daughter and 3 boys. This definitely hit me and reinforces my love for golf and time spent with my children!
Thanks for sharing Jordan’s story Jim - I’m glad that our wee country has helped in a small way to get you back smiling again. Keep on bumping and running pal.
30yr old Scottish boy living in Atlanta, god this made me homesick. Lovely film. Well done guys, really great.
Jim, keep putting 1 foot in front of the other. Wish you and your family well and the future gets brighter. Jordan will be with you mate.
I very rarely comment on things but this piece of work is a thing of beauty. Amazing work NLU team and respect to Jim and your journey.
Hands up everyone who was shedding tears the first 2 minutes, because i was. Well done to the NLU team, this is art.
Thank you. My dad and I did a golf trip to kintyre in 2017 playing all of these courses, unbelievably generous of you all to allow me to relive the magic.
Emotional rollercoaster. Tears from the very beginning combined with happiness for how much Scotland means to Jim and how golf was able to help him in such a dark time, best NLU production to-date ❤
Beautiful film. The community that NLU has built is really special - thank you for sharing Jim's story.
NLU....best content in golf. This film was absolutely priceless.
Poignant, but redeeming as well. Life and golf. I'm grateful to have stumbled upon this wonderfully moving story. A revelation indeed.
Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing your story, Jim.
This is beautiful. I’ve just reached out the wee book store on Arran and have a copy of Jim’s book coming my way. Thank you NLU for telling this story and presenting my country in such a beautiful way.
Proud of myself for only crying 3 times. What a beautiful piece!
Will be tough to top this one boys. Dry eyes lasted almost 2 minutes. Masterful story telling, heart rendering and also so enjoyable to see the friendships that are what make golf so great. Also loved seeing Robbie and Greg, brought back brilliant memories of our trip there in May. Cheers & bravo to all and best wishes in your ongoing journey Jim.
Speechless. Thanks for sharing your story. Sending love Jim.
i love NLU for everything they do but this....this is why i'll always be a fan. just beautiful
What great content, top notch stuff. Brings back my trips to Scotland to play with my Dad and then again with my buddies 20 years ago. I've always found great pleasure in playing in Scotland and playing off the beaten path - such great (and cheap) courses and a wonderful welcome. I noticed that 10 times more people have watched Bob Does Sports try and eat 36 donuts in 9 holes of golf.... sort of sums up where our society is I guess. Keep up the great work! I'm off to get a donut.
Every dad who plays and loves this game with their kids should be bawling their eyes out right now. Life is hard.
I cried thru this entire video. Thank you, so much guys, for the heart behind your work.
A beautiful film, very moving. It’s amazing how special places can talk to your soul.
Thanks NLU - love following what you guys put out. The variety and humanity are what separates you - don't change.
Absolutely wonderful and heartbreaking, thanks for sharing Jim and his sons’ story, reminder of how important it is for men to take care of their mental health and engage in things that help them and not let them get too isolated, stay strong out there fellas
Words cannot describe how spectacular this content has become. God bless Jim and god bless the world of golf!
Its this type of content and these kinds of stories that makes this channel special.
Wonderful video. Scottish links golf is truly special. We’re spoilt in the north of England for great links golf. But the hidden gems (and the big boys) in Scottish just hit home differently.
It’s both a wonderful and heart wrenching story of Jim’s. Self narrated so we’ll, and produced perfectly by NLU. Bravo to all. This video will get plenty of repeat views in this household.
Bought the book straight after the TD Podcast last year.
Really glad that it was NLU who put this to video.
Big props to Matt for the finished article.
Big love to Jim and family.
Very possibly the greatest golf film I have ever seen 👏 What a job NLU, TC, Matt and of course Jim, truly inspirational stuff ⛳
NLU, this is just amazing storytelling. Thank you for giving a platform to Jim's story. It was authentic and heartfelt. A rarity in today's youtube golf universe.
Unbelievably touching story, amazing storytelling and fantastic filmmaking. Loved every second of this.
Beautifully done production, and a credit to Jim to be able and willing to share it. Looking forward to reading the book!
Excellent. As a son, a dad, and a golfer this hit. Beautifully captured. Thank you 🙌🏼
Thank you as a father Beautiful piece and all my best to Jake and his Father and family. Losing a sibling and child is heartbreaking. Held it strong until Jordan’s father was on the bench at the end. Beautiful & Sad. Love you all for this
Thank you guys for putting this short golfumentary.This is a true testament that golf and life are very parables.And this movie has inspired me to get a trip together with my friends before it's to late for us.We are all just turning 50 this year.And we all could use a trip like this to get to see the that part of the world.
Thank you for sharing Jim’s story in such a stunning fashion. I don’t know what it is about the pursuit of a little white ball that seems to heal our souls. Rest in peace, Jordan. And God bless you, Jim.
I should of gone to work an hour ago but I couldn’t stop watching. Incredible film and story, visually beautiful and amazing quirky golf courses. It has inspired me to head up North and try these places. Top work NLU.
This might be the greatest piece of content I've ever seen on youtube. Incredibly well done. Heart wrenching story that can touch us all. Thank NLU and everyone involved for putting this out there.
Someone needs to explain to me why NLU only has 144k subs. I don't get it. Best content on YT by a country mile.
It's because they focus on absolute quality over clickbait generic content produced mostly to get casual followers.
And my god, may it continue. 😉
Matt Golden, you are an absolute artist! This is beautifully shot and edited! :chefs-kiss:
…the storytelling, cinematography, sound design, music selection, editing, all of it…absolutely brilliant and a true piece of heartfelt art. Incredible job lads.
Wow - this is a new level of NLU storytelling - epic heartfelt & beautiful, truly wonderful, poignant, emotional - I live in Scotland - you show how truly special it is, thanks
In tears from the jump. Thank you Jim for telling this story, both in film and book. Beautifully done.
Coming back to this video a month after release, it feels criminal that less than 70k people have watched this. Seriously one of the best pieces of content that NLU has ever put out. I really hope this ends up getting the audience that it deserves and that Jim's story can be spread further.
You’re a good soul Jim, as are you TC. Thank you.
I knew I liked this guy from the beginning but then he dropped the Neutral Milk Hotel fandom and he's now cemented as a legend. Amazing content as always!
Beautifully done......this is much more than a film.....this is art. Thank you Jim Hartsell. Thank you NLU.
Really, really good. Beautiful, bittersweet story of loss and recovery. You guys are doing good work.
Thank you NLU, simply for being.
That was such a beautiful watch - this type of content makes me even more thankful my late father introduced me to the wonderful game of golf. Kudos to all involved!
Boys, your film making is off the charts. I've been lucky enough to have been enjoying NLU since damn near inception.( My Strapped Boys will forever hold a piece of buddy trip wanderlust in my soul) And while the visuals, editing, the whole damn production has grown by leaps and bounds, you have managed to keep the content, the subjects, "real". That is what makes NLU so special. Thank you. You have found a perfect mix of crying, smiling and envy.
Wow, as I wipe my eyes , it makes me glad I watched , I'll do it again.
Damn. More folk need to see this. Just brilliant.
Fantastic job everyone. This was special.
What a great story, a very brave man to be admired after all he has been through. I'm glad Scotland, the people and the golf helped him to keep going
I really enjoyed this, bravo to all involved. God bless Jim and may Jordan rest in peace.
Just got back from my first golf trip to Scotland two weeks ago. A special place for sure and this is a fantastic video. NLU should have 3X the subs it does.
First of many I hope😉🏴
Amazing production! I am so sorry for the loss of your boy. Takes character to share that. God bless.
A special story, beautifully told.
TC…Jim…my God. As a parent who is incomplete due to the death of a child…I’m with you
What a great film, great people and wonderful nature 🤗🤗
Hands down some of your best work today's guys. Truly, very well done. He's a wonderful man with a story worth telling.
I love all that you guys do and this is the best video you guys have ever produced! God Bless Jim and his family and thanks to NLU for telling his story.
I didn't want to watch it, because I didn't want to cry. But, I did watch it and I cried. Masterpiece.
Absolutely incredible storytelling and filmmaking! Jim thank you for sharing your story! God bless
Amazing story, great film thanks for sharing your story Jim 🙏
Beautiful, emotive and important
Simply… Brilliant.
Awesome Story guys keep up the Great Work ! Cheers to Jim for Shari his Story
Truly, truly remarkable video!! Kudos to everyone involved, I can't seem to find the right words to type, just beautiful!!!
Extremely satisfying insight of the golf thats available out there ...talk about love for the game ...Great episode.
great work Tron and the crew. golf's connection w/ nature provides a soul-enriching experience
This is a masterpiece.
