It would be jaw dropping to watch your series in an IMAX movie theater. The scenic views of the ferry trip courses are the best. Your a fine ambassador for Scottish golf. To be honest, I'm a bit envious of the charmed life you share through the camera. Please keep the magic coming every Sunday.
I adore this video and I'd like to tell you my reasons. This is the purpose, in my opinion, of playing golf. You tee off on the first hole and you see how many shots you need to make it around until the final hole, not to shoot a bazillion under par or to measure yourself against par (an arbitrary number) but just how many shots it takes you. (a side note - one of the reasons I love The Open and the strokes total instead of relation to "par") A person also takes time to enjoy just being where you are, looking around, and hitting a little ball around some grass and remembering that you're doing it for the challenge but also for fun, it's not working in a salt mine. I'm a single-digit handicap, live in Florida, get to play some really nice golf courses, but I find myself gravitating to more experiences like you've had here, remembering why I play the game and finding the joy/zen in just playing golf without all of the extraneous stuff that goes with it like course condition perfection, ego tied to score, alpha-male money games, etc., play because you love the game. I really enjoyed this video.
Bang on Todd, it’s you V the course. If with good company what’s not to like you can score badly but be hitting the ball well, likewise can fluke a shot and it nearly goes in. Who really cares, enjoy what can be a piece of haven away from the bustle of life. Sadly there are too many even on you tube who moan a players short is not tucked in, hat worn the wrong way. When I started playing again my irons are over 30 years old, Wilson’s, my woods are woods even older as bought 2nd hand, my trolly a simple pull/ push one that was less than £30 /$40 30 years ago. I got looks from others as there are those who think you need to have all the gear otherwise your not a proper player. I enjoy the walk, the serenity, the views. I can often be the only person on the 9 holes I am playing ( the course has 5 x 9 hole layout) I don’t have to wait I don’t have to rush, bliss
Links golf is great and what a nice course to practice your mid range golf game, and hit off tight lies and love the blind shots, you are leading the golf life, always enjoy my Sunday watching your golf video and the interesting places you and your wife go to. She does great camera and drone flying with the overhead shots, I would probably crash the drone on takeoff.
The only drawback I can see is blind shots, dislike these as if a bit wild then it can be a guessing game, but also the course as Andy played it how much run was there? Have been to Arran many years ago loved it.
Great video Andy. Shiskine is a good track and Brodick GC provides a good back up and if you play in high summer cando both in day. Look forward to next week video already.⛳
A great video . I loved every minute of my day at Shiskine. I would love to go back and play under those conditions. Looking forward to next weeks video
My home away from home. This is the course I learned to play golf on. You were very lucky not to have thr wind on the first. Makes it a much harder course. Good video.
How is this beautiful piece of real estate uninhabited to the point where, on a clear day, you can go out, play a relaxed round of golf, shoot a video of it, and have no one around to bother you. Didn't think places like this existed anymore.
Cracking little tricky course , must have had better weather ( course very dry ) than we have had in the east ☔️ last few months . Definitely now how to find them Andy 👍
Big TV subwoofer highest definition and a warm coffee! The relaxing music, cinematic imagery and good does of imagination. I am always were i wish I was! From above the fields are gold(en)! Hidden gems and ferry golf, worht making the effort to watch on the big screen.
Great video - reminds me of many games there in my youth. 4th hole is very different with a strong wind from the right. On the tee you are sheltered, but when the ball gets past the rocks it turns sharp left.
Amazing views and I hope you got to the distillery for a dram or two, best part of Scotland besides the amazing golf. Damn covid has cancelled our trips
Another great video Andy, always a pleasure to see and hear how much pleasure you get from your surroundings, the score is secondary. One thing I would add, is I wished every you tuber Started to promote a repair 1+2 on pitch marks eg yours plus two more , if we all did this the greens would be pitch mark free within a week. I often can repair 8-9 pitch marks per green , drives me mad.
Another cracking video. Hope Ayrshire and Arran tourist board have given you a good bung !£ lol. The only thing you've missed out telling the public about is the Arran golf pass - £120, 7 courses and can be used within a year, don't think anywhere else can beat that for value 🤔
I hope you manage to get to Oban and play Glencruitten Home of Bob McIntyre it is certainly underrated of the most beautiful courses in Scotland it’s a hidden gem. Oban is a beautiful place to visit
Loved the video, but just some advice if you don't mind. You need to work on the volume leveling a little. Man it went from having to turn up the volume to hear you talk, to some very loud music. Made is a little hard to enjoy. Still interesting golf course and thanks for sharing.
Some courses have an almost mystical feel to them,this is definitely one of them. Anyone who moans about burnt fairways doesn’t understand links golf,a personal big bear of mine is when the water the Open venue fairways. & I’m sure the pro’s would rather burnt fairways too,at least the ones that can shape their shots to the weather/wind conditions

Andy,
Shiskine could very well be where "The Good Lord" goes when he wants to get in a quick round, what a venue!
He would enjoy it 😂

Ferry Golf
What a fantastic idea, and brilliant to see these courses.
Looking forward to next Sunday.
Made for a great trip and we move on again!
Great video Andy, and what a stunning location, but definately a fair weather course.
Yes the wind would make it a different beast
The only drawback I can see is blind shots, dislike these as if a bit wild then it can be a guessing game, but also the course as Andy played it how much run was there? Have been to Arran many years ago loved it.
Stunning views love you to play it one windy day Andy looks amazing
Different course with a breeze
Sublime, serene, stupendous. To quote someone we know, “That’s me done!”
Love to read this feedback 👍
Great video Andy. Shiskine is a good track and Brodick GC provides a good back up and if you play in high summer cando both in day.
Look forward to next week video already.⛳
Thanks for heads up for next time
Awesome Andy! What a beautiful place with the brown fairways, nice greens and fantastic views! Well done! 👏
A great video . I loved every minute of my day at Shiskine. I would love to go back and play under those conditions. Looking forward to next weeks video
I would love to go back in any condition
My home away from home. This is the course I learned to play golf on. You were very lucky not to have thr wind on the first. Makes it a much harder course. Good video.
Fantastic video Andy, what a cracking looking course. Can't wait for the next adventure cheers Peter 👍👍👍
Thanks Peter hope your are well
@@TheAverageGolfer great Andy can't say the same about my golf though 🤣🤣🤣🤣 keep up the fantastic work mate 👏👏👏👏

It exists and seems a world away from reality which makes it so special
Cracking little tricky course , must have had better weather ( course very dry ) than we have had in the east ☔️ last few months . Definitely now how to find them Andy 👍
Another amazing video Andy , long may you keep playing and filming great content , thank you for all your effort
As long as you all keep watching

I can imagine
Awesome place for golf, love these series 👍
Thanks Mitch
What a beautiful part of the world, must have been really special to have seen it in person, Andy.
I loved this trip
Amazing views and I hope you got to the distillery for a dram or two, best part of Scotland besides the amazing golf. Damn covid has cancelled our trips
Next trip is whisky and golf late September
Superb quality filming. Probably the best in the many golf channels I watch 👏👏
Appreciated
Just.Wow!! Thank you for sharing....
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
A very timely video. I'm playing shiskine and all the others in two weeks.
You will have a great time Jim 👍
@@TheAverageGolfer cheers, can't wait. Squeezing in a little whisky tasting too.
Jim Wocha perfect trip 👍
Looks stunning Andy wow 😮 keep up the good work sir Diolch
Thank you Paul

Andy, great video. That course would be so much fun to play. Wonder how tough when the wind is up? Yikes. What a Gem.
Big game changer in the wind
Great videa. What a spectacular course with wonderful views and top notch layout. This is one I will add to my bucket list
Worth playing as you can see
Looks stunning and yes very quirky 👍difficult if the wind blowing in great vid
Yes the wind would make things very different!
Love this series Andy! Thanks you for taking us to places I'll never get to visit in person.
What a hidden gem....thank you for taking us for a ride. Cheers Mate!
It sure is
Lucky enough to play Shiskine regularly in all weather! You've done it proud, well done
Great video Andy. Hoping you are heading next to Islay and The Machrie
Not next but could be to follow….
Another cracking video. Hope Ayrshire and Arran tourist board have given you a good bung !£ lol.
The only thing you've missed out telling the public about is the Arran golf pass - £120, 7 courses and can be used within a year, don't think anywhere else can beat that for value 🤔
I just found your Channel and think it's wonderful. I wish my game was as. average as your's😊!!
Love the series .Thanks
Thank you 🙏
Love jumping on the ferry and going across for the day. Think your in love with Ayrshire Andy 👌🏻
More great content.
PS what drone do you use ?
Cheers
I love Scotland full stop! The drone is Mavic Air 2
Hi Andy
Great video, did you manage to play any other courses on Arran?
Corrie is a great little 9 hole course, perfect a round in the evening
Afraid not it was a flying visit and I was told Corrie was worth a visit, I will return one day, loved what I saw of Arran
Look like a fun course some very interesting holes
Golf in the Kingdom right there. Thanks mate!
Wow! What an interesting track! How parched were those fairways? Great series developing here Andy. 😎🏌️
Shishkine . . . now on my to do list, stunning course
Hey Andy great video , you should take a trip to Donegal and visit Cruit ( pronounced Critch ) island golf club . 9 holes , one o them mate .
I have that on my radar David 👍
@@TheAverageGolfer Hey you could never ever drive by it . So worth seeing as much as playing as it happens
Well done young Lad, another golf masterpiece
Thanks as ever bud 👍
Enjoyed this completely Andy.
Thanks Wade
Quality vlog always do the best course blogs on RUclips
Wow, thank you!
Have you played Rothesay golf course on Bute ? Definitely worth a visit. 👍
No but thanks for the heads up
Arran a place I have always wanted to go and visit , wow proper links burnt dry
West Kilbride just along the road to good track
I drove past on the way to Largs and looked my cup of tea
I really enjoyed this video..
Great video, really enjoying this series. Your game is looking great, are you getting to play any comps?
I rarely play a club comp Colin which is a shame
I guess your off to Islay , wondering if your playing on Jura
I hope you manage to get to Oban and play Glencruitten Home of Bob McIntyre it is certainly underrated of the most beautiful courses in Scotland it’s a hidden gem. Oban is a beautiful place to visit
Not his time but thanks for the recommendation I will add to my list
Great vlog andy truley inspireing.
Cheers Graham
Not a bad place to be named after
Very true
This island tour just gets better with every course, how will you top Shiskine looking to the next one
Thanks David, 2 more to come 👍
Played there in May, a great course.
Special place and can’t wait to return
Followed it up with a trip to machrihanish and machrihanish dunes, Dunaverty, western and Glasgow Gailes.
ian smith what a trip!
@@TheAverageGolfer it was great, a proper adventure.
Hope you got to play it more than once.🏌️
Not on this occasion
What a little gem !
Indeed
Playing there on Wednesday, can’t wait
Enjoy pal
Loved the video, but just some advice if you don't mind. You need to work on the volume leveling a little. Man it went from having to turn up the volume to hear you talk, to some very loud music. Made is a little hard to enjoy. Still interesting golf course and thanks for sharing.
Great vid. Did you try any of the other courses on Arran or just Shiskin?
No it was a flying visit left ina ferry later that day
Bestest GC in the worldy. Big smiles playing there.
My goodness, stunning.
Fantastic!
what a great road trip this is.
Greens look great considering how burned the rest of the course is
Superb condition
Is that 6AM in the morning as opposed to the night🤔😂
Some courses have an almost mystical feel to them,this is definitely one of them. Anyone who moans about burnt fairways doesn’t understand links golf,a personal big bear of mine is when the water the Open venue fairways. & I’m sure the pro’s would rather burnt fairways too,at least the ones that can shape their shots to the weather/wind conditions
paradise
perfect
👍
Wow. What a fantastic looking course. I am on WhatsApp in a minute to try and organise a trip with a few mates.
