    Great watch Lester, really enjoyable. For me you’re absolutely right to be wanting to develop your own style and it’s good to see some of the new stuff you’re trying….keep it up. Also, if I may say…you are probably a better golfer than most people viewing your videos. Don’t put yourself down, you have a lot to offer in the instructional sense. For those of us that aren’t so good it’s really useful to see/hear how a good player approaches a particular shot and to understand what you are trying to do…..doesn’t matter if it comes off or not…..we know plenty about that! Hearing and seeing the process is very useful. Keep it going mate 👍

    Hey Bernie, good vlog. You mentioned the 'no intro, straight in' style may be not to everyone's taste, but honestly I find it refreshing. Once you are a few mins in there's always an opportunity to mention where you are playing, what you are doing etc.
    I think RUclips golf needs a shake up, it's definitely very formulaic currently, so keep doing what you feel is right and you'll find your audience.

    Really enjoyed this "different" vlog Bernie - some of the content is streets ahead of the way some of RUclipsrs film golf.
    The slow zoom from the tee is perfect to show us how the hole plays - really like this.
    Graphics showing club, distance, score, etc - all great to keep the viewer engaged and informed - it's often easy to lose interest if this sort of info isn't provided and you're not paying attention !
    Like the 4 clubs challenge - perhaps something you can occasionally return to - see if you can beat your record.

    Top effort bernie. One area i personally find dull on golf vlogs is on the greens.😢 so few long putts are made and they often yap on for ages about what the putt is going to do and miss 95% of them. Good luck

    • @berniebarnesgolf
      @berniebarnesgolf  Год назад

      Yeah I get that with the putting David. I guess it’s easier sometimes to leave the camera in the same position on the green and it seems to take forever. I’ll have a think and see if I can do something to make that area more exciting.

Now I only get about 20 rounds a year so I try to make them all count.

    A great friend of mine ‘borrowed’ a half set from the gym at Culdrose (Pinseekers or similar!). He didn’t get a full set until 18 months later, by which time he was playing off 6! If you know West Cornwall, you’ll know him, get him on the channel, he’s a star👍

    It doesn't surprise me at all that your subscriber numbers are increasing at such a good rate given how much you added to the enjoyment of those of us who follow DHG plus the way this channel is already developing its own "Bernie" style. I don't know how much time you have to spend making content at the moment and how far you are able to travel but if you could invite club pros, other youtubers, etc., to challenge you to a match on their home course that would give you the opportunity to film beyond Churston from time to time. Also, Peter Finch is currently running a series where he is looking to play as many other golf youtube creators as possible during 2023, and maybe beyond. I don't know what criteria he sets but if you could get onto that list it would certainly help to raise your channel's profile.

    Nice one Bernie, good video mate. It's tough 3 clubs and a putter, but good to learn how to manufacture shots. For putts where I can see the hole I have to have the flag out. Any other putt I don't mind it left in. I always say to may mates I'll get the flag when I'm picking the ball out of the hole. One of these days it will happen! Haha

    Can I suggest an idea for your blogs going forward Bernie. What about inviting one of your followers from time to time, to play a round with you on a blog. The mistakes they make could be a good learning point for us all. I appreciate this would possibly only involve relatively local players (50 to 100 mile radius) but on the odd occasion it might be a good to see this type of thing and it would possibly be unique compared to other RUclips sites. Only a suggestion! I appreciate the fact that you would need to have confidence in the invite that you weren’t inviting a troll for example!

      I’m open to playing golf and filming with everyone Paul. Everyone that’s appeared on my channel I regularly play golf with. Issue I have currently is the cost of traveling adding to the fact I’d generally have to pay a green fee and buggies. Plus it take 3 hours for 9 holes, so would need an understanding course too. I will travel more going forward and happy to play golf and film with anyone.

      @@berniebarnesgolf Hi Bernie, I was not criticising your current approach as I believe it is a good one. I can also understand the cost implications and the time elements you highlight. What I meant was, inviting someone like me for example, a 22.7 WHS golfer to one of your local courses and the game is played at your timings and availability and cost. I didn’t mean you travel to other courses which you don’t know and could cause you issues I fully understand your point of view👍🏻. I’m not putting myself forward either, as I’m camera shy!
