So many of my favorite creators split their 18s into seperate 9 hole videos. Every time your front nine scorecard comes on screen I think the video is over.. then I see the time remaining and it makes me happy 🙂 Love your content dude.
Haha thanks Big Al. I have some matches coming up that will be split 9 & 9, but when it's just me in the vids I like being able to show the whole course in 10 mins or less :)
@@NotAScratchGolfer I’m from the peninsula but yeah there are great courses all over the bay! If you haven’t played them already I’d highly recommend Deep Cliff in Cupertino or Crystal Springs in Burlingame. Also a couple cool 3 par courses are Emerald Hills in Redwood City (surprisingly challenging) and also Mariners Point in Foster City; that place is especially cool since they light the whole course up until about 10pm so if you’re ever in the area you can literally sneak in a quick nine with like an 8pm tee time!
@@grahamlarsen2082 Wow, thanks so much for the recommendations. I haven't played any of these and I hadn't heard about Deep Cliff or Emerald Hills! I'll be sure to get out to these in the future!
Another great video, thank you. Now, a tip from a wannabee, if your under a tree, don't wanna go left, or right, but under? What to do? Driver! Yes driver. Choke down almost off of the grip, and a good STFF putting stroke, brisk and hard no back swing, but a poke at the ball. Like you have an impossible hundred foot put, just poke at it. Like any other judgement shot, not a full club, how hard you poke is how far do you want it to run. Stays down under the tree and runs almost or as far as you want it to. Have fun with it. Hey, if Tiger can hit a three wood off the fringe, why can't we poke a driver out from under a tree. Ask yourself, kick it out to the side fifty yards or so, or poke it down the fairway a hundred or two hundred yards. Good luck y'all. 😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Interesting stuff. I usually disregard RUclips coaching because it clogs my head with too many things, but this is....interesting. I'll give it a try. If it ever makes its way into a vide, expect a shoutout ;)
Going to have to change the name of the channel soon with play like this! Missed your videos this week, got used to/spoiled with the 3 a week for a while. Hope all is well
Thanks, Hayden. I try to maintain 2/wk and every now and then I miss one. The RUclips algo seems to have punished this vid which stinks because I wish more people could see Stanford. Awesome, awesome track.
Great content as always. I'm solidifying my theory that the most important part of your game is lag putting. All the haters that say "you're not a 7/8" definitely don't 2 putt from 20+ nearly as much as you do. The rest of the game is above average, but those lags . . . Chef's kiss.
Thanks, man. Indeed, the last time I tracked stats with Arccos it showed that my handicap with the flat stick was a +1-2 whereas everything else in my game hovered around 10. I definitely don't look like a single digit, and the putter is key!
@@NotAScratchGolfer I'd love to hear more of your thought process over lag putts. It's a part of the game that isn't talked about much but is very important.
Thanks bud. It was a 4.3, apparently. Definitely one of my better days with the big stick. When are we playing? Oh, I also found an umbrella holder for a push cart. Yours?
@@NotAScratchGolfer Yes! i had a reallllly wet round a couple sundays ago - but it turns out i also left the cart in my garage and it wouldn't have mattered lol. When are you in town you know im obsessed and will golf any time i can.
@@NotAScratchGolferI had a great round consider how new I was to the course:) I did see you avoid one of the trees in the vid, which was funny because I hit my ball into trees 3 times that day lol.
Thanks, Brendon. And agreed! It's easily in my top-10 courses played. Maybe top 5. If I somehow got into Stanford I would have flunked out immediately because I'd have spent all of my time on the course.
Well played Adam! Anytime you play a course for the first time and play it well is a good day! Always love the knowledge and respect you give. Thanks for taking us along.
Definitely one of your best recent tee to green rounds. I was supposed to play Stanford for the first time last month but it got cancelled. Hope I get another chance now that I've seen it here.
@@NotAScratchGolfer welcome... it is funny, but I find myself getting invested in these rounds... like if things don't go well on the back 9 i may turn it off ha... nice to see such a solid round.
Wow Adam, I play this course all the time, its definitely a hard one! That is such a good score to post! Your drives and putts were on point. I've shot a lot of 80s, 81s, 82s from the blacks, but a 76 from the TIPS!! 1st time playing the course!? Dude impressive stuff! Keep it up :)
Thanks, Michael! Indeed it's a tough track. I played 9 holes here one other time and shot a million. To clarify, this was from the black tees, not the tips :p
@@NotAScratchGolfer Still such a great round man! Congrats! You might have to change your channel name in the next year or so if you keep playing that good ;)
Great video! It has been exactly 20 months since I first started playing Golf. I need help with my amateur swing! In fact, Check out my first episode of trying to break 40 video on my channel!
Enjoying your videos Adam, just a question ... Does your inside take away cause you any back pain? I've had to change the top of my backswing to more vertical because I couldn't last 18 holes without a buggy. (subscribed). 👍⛳
Top Tip - Ditch the 4 wood / hybrid on the par 5's - 16th hole you had 235 to the pin but went for it and ended up in a bunker. Split the distance left by 2 eg that would be 135 and 100 and use a 9 then wedge to get close on the green and have a better chance with birdies and sure fire pars. Trying to get Eagle on a par 5 is V. Difficult - Top PGA Eagle man has only 15 in 55 rounds. Many top Pro's are not even close to that number.
That eagle stat is misleading since most tour pros go for the green in 2 looking for the easy 2 putt birdie. If you are inside your comfortable distances with a wood or hybrid, always go for the green on par 5 trying for that comfy 2 putt birdie.
Thanks, David! I'd love love love love love love to play Stanford again. It's a shame - I was just in the Bay Area a couple of weeks ago. I'll definitely reach out to you the next time I'm there. Would you mind emailing me so I have your contact info? i'm adamsofine at gmail dot com

I'm really enjoying the videos. Just 2-3 more weeks until golf opens in Toronto and your videos and sidekicks are keeping me sane as I wait.
Let's gooooooo! I've never played in Canada east of BC. Would love to do an Ontario golf trip at some point this Summer.
I love golf in Toronto! Maybe the sunshine in this video will help: ruclips.net/video/BqaKjEWuJ8s/видео.html
@@NotAScratchGolfer There are some absolutely beautiful courses out this way! If you do make it out here, I'd love to know the tour you're doing
@@TheGreaterSin2 Will definitely keep the community tab on my page updated if/when I make the journey!
Lmao, I’m down near Windsor and I’ve just been dying to get out
I feel lost, who is the Philosopher?! And solid round, I always feel perplexed when the short putts don't drop but your dialed from long range...
Great round Adam! I can tell your mid/long iron game is improving.
Adam, great work!!!! 🐅 Tiger!!!! Sure hope he plays The Masters!!! GOAT is GOB!!!!

@@OffBrandGolf Good stuff!!
Recently did a mini tiger pilgrimage in socal. Noticed you also bought a hat at the navy course like I did! Did you play the par 3 Heartwell course?
Awesome! What courses did you play? Favorites? I didn't get to the Heartwell course. For shame! I love a Par 3!!
Such an awesome course. I’ve lived nearby my whole life but I’ve never made it out there, you’re a lucky duck!

Tidy play and nice approach play with those longer shots to the green, giving yourself birdie puts.
Been waiting for this your videos are unreal
Very enjoyable video. You played well. Have you changed your clubs? You seem to be hitting further than a few weeks ago.
God the ball striking sounded flush today, especially with the disco stick!
Thanks, Eric!

Swing looks slightly less laid off going back.. Have you been working on the swing seems like the ball striking has been a lot better as of late

Watching 18 videos in 9 mins is why you have one of the best golf content Chanel’s on RUclips!
Drives were awesome
Well.....A lot of the classic fairway green 2 putt
50% of the time I do it every time.
The art of keeping it in front of oneself...seems like a lost art...the Driver was really working Adam great round!
Thanks, Keith. Indeed, for better or worse that's as well as I can hit driver over a full round.
@@NotAScratchGolfer I was thinking, thats A LOT of great drives, along with you SCRATCH PUTTING, as I say...Keep up the great work!
Couldn't agree more on going all out on an 8 vs easing up on a 7.
It's *definitely* the right move for me. I know some guys are able to ease up on clubs more easily, but not this guy.
Whatta round. Thanks for lugging your camera around and giving us this content
Thanks Gordon. I shouldn't complain about it as it's the best job I could ask for.
Let's ggoooooooooooooooooooo Adam
Thanks bud
That’s amazing you played Stanford! I practice there all the time yet don’t have privileges to play.
Thanks, Gary. I'm so glad I got to play it. The Philosopher is the man.
@@NotAScratchGolfer if the philosopher feels like playing a fun round at Stanford with me, I can reciprocate!
Outstanding round Adam especially your putting, You could be a scratch golfer sooner than you think....👍⛳
I wish, thanks Bryan!
Really great round! That 4 wood on 7 was awesome.
Thanks, Kerry. It's the most volatile club in my bag. Nice to hit a good one with it every now and then!
seriously a great shot, such a sweet sound when you square up a wood like that
Love the comment on easier to juice an 8 iron than drag a 7 iron for you. Hadn’t considered that.
Thanks. It only took me 4-5 years of golfing to figure this out :p
I'm really glad I found this RUclips channel. I've been enjoying the content. Keep it up!

6 over on that course is VERY respectable my friend. Love your content.
could you amke a video of what you use for your videos?
what cameras/tripods/apps you use to film all of this? How much time does it take? :P
Another fantastic video!! Keep them coming tiger was not a scratch golfer once!
Thanks, Fergus. I think Tiger was shooting better scores than me by age 5 lol
perfect as always - I enjoy watching you just as much as the pros!
Great video as always brother
Thanks Meowseph
Well played Adam! Anytime you play a course for the first time and play it well is a good day! Always love the knowledge and respect you give. Thanks for taking us along.
Play Furman University course
When my flat stick fails me it’s a lot more than 17 putts over 9 holes I promise you that
Another great vlog and if your putter had cooperated it would have been very close to par. 👍
Thanks, Tony. Indeed, 34 putts prevented this one from being a REALLY good one!
Definitely one of your best recent tee to green rounds. I was supposed to play Stanford for the first time last month but it got cancelled. Hope I get another chance now that I've seen it here.
