I'm with you bro, 6 months in and breaking 100 is becoming my obsession! Short game and 3 putts are killing me. Thankyou for so honestly sharing reality, we are not alone!!!
Great video. Thanks so much. It is so refreshing to watch someone who is "normal" instead of all these "super" golfers rampant on RUclips. You played some great holes and your enthusiasm is so infectious. I am sure your handicap will come tumbling down if you continue as you are.
You really have been pumping out the content and I love it. You’re getting more birdie putts and creating more opportunities for yourself with your punchy safe shots out of the trees.
Really enjoying my watching your videos Dennis. So many RUclipsrs out there breaking 80 etc but the truth is for most of us, bogey golf is where it’s at 😂
love the content bud. thoroughly enjoy it. Little idea for you...if you put the shot number and the par details top right with your score and hole number, that would be a great addition. more faff i know, no hate, just an idea.
It is amazing how one bad shoot leads to many more as we get frustrated. Just swing easy and keep the head down. You are improving but I am sure not fast enough for you. Take care and hope you have a Merry Christmas!
I seen your swing at the beginning and thought no way your 28 handicap !! You will improve fast mate I'm on a similar handicap but your swing is miles better than mine my best score up to now is 97 twice keep up with these videos and good luck to you we need it mate with this game lol ❤
Guys like you and @jackplaysgolf inspired me to start my own channel. Your videos have helped me feel better about shooting in the high 90s/low 100s and made me realize there were a lot of us out there. Hope my content can add to the reinforcement that it's okay to be bad and on the road to better! Thank you!
Love the content good to see some real golf on RUclips. Take these tips or ignore them but think about the bin lid when putting. Don't focus on the hole focus on the bin lid. Around the greens find a club that works for you and just use that - try not to switch between PW then 54 then 60 or whatever. When off the green putt whenever you can - a bad putt is almost always better than a bad chip. When the ground is firm like in this video you can putt from 20 or 30 yards off the green. Learn your miss - if on one day your irons seem to be going right then adjust and aim further left. Simple course management will get you below 100 mate. Keep going!
Just an observation on the 2nd tee shot you always look like you were aiming right on the tee, maybe something to look at with an alignment stick on the ground. Keep up the great content 👍
@BogeyGolfUK I also noticed this. Unless it is a perspective thing, your feet always aim well right. My other half is exactly the same and more often than not goes straight. So your brain recognises your alignment and tries to correct it mid swing. I've tried to correct it for her but she then just goes left. I suppose if it ain't broke don't fix it... as I would love to hit the amount of fairways you do..
I love your positivity. Your putting is looking really good. Speed was excellent all day. On putts you missed due to read I think you missed 10 on the low side and only 3 on the high side. Most amateurs miss too much on the low side, and it’s better to miss on the high side, because you leave yourself a shorter putt to finish. Take a little bit more break and you’ll make a couple longer putts, and 3-putt less. lglg
So so unlucky man. I am also vlogging my break 100 journey and I felt every shot of that. I'll be following you from here 😎 I was on pace for 96 after front 9 on my last round and ended up 104 too. It's gonna happen for both of us soon. Also watch me rocking the tee in the hat on my next vid 😆
Enjoy watching you play! Do you do any chipping practice before you tee off? A few full shots ,some chipping and putting before I tee off can really help ☝️
First time I've seen you, and I found this great fun! I'm not as good as you are, but it looked like you weren't teeing up much with the irons. Because you hit the ground before the ball sometimes I thought you may have a bigger margin of error if you teed it up a bit higher. Keep up the good work!
Looks very good! A super honest comment from me because I feel I have been in the same place as you when I was a 28 ish hncp, a lot of things you're doing good but what it comes down to at the end is "TENSION" when you realise this you'r body wil become more flexible and you'r body turn including your hips Wil join you'r game more. Something I learned from my golf pro ;) think Wil help you massive, especially for you'r shortgame💪🙏
Quit an improvement from the last I watched you. Keep it up. A little work on the wedge play, but who doesn't need that? 😊 Enjoyed the adventure, thanks for the fun. ❤ 🏌️ ✌️
Matey, you will get there, your game is coming along with your putting becoming a little more consistent length wise. You just have to find the right club for the tee and you h/cap will start dropping and your scores will improve👍👍
I just found this video, and i love it. I feel like i am watching myself play. I see some good shots and some bad. Just wondering has your game improved?
Nice Videos and great sincere content. Can you please add the info of the chosen club for each shot, and the Par of the current Hole? Maybe meters would be nice also.
@@BogeyGolfUK More golf is always a good thing. Get those practice rounds in. We wanna see you move on in the tournament. Funny story. DISCLAIMER (Won't apply to you) 😂 The night before the second round of a match play club tournament I was playing in. I stubbed my right foot pinky toe one the door frame to my bathroom as I was getting ready for a good nights rest in anticipation for the next day. It knew immediately it was bad. After a few minutes of resting my head on the countertop sink. I finally looked down, in a sweat, to see my little toe facing straight sideways. All I could do was pull it back straight, tape it to the other toe and take a couple Advil. Needless to say, I didn't rest well. I didn't play well and I lost 2 and 1. It's a funny story now. Not so much back then. So, you never know what life has for you. Just keep your positive attitude. That's something we all like about your videos.
@@mikekooz475 haha that is both horrific and quite comical at the same time. Indeed one eye is permanently on the Belfry final! Need to bring my A game 💪
Try keeping your weight more on your front foot and keep it there throughout the shot when pitching and chipping. Should help with hitting behind the ball and chunking it, should give you a much better ball first contact. As others have said, your ball striking is generally excellent on full shots. Sure that handicap will drop in no time at all. All the best!
It might be the camera angle, but it looks like your toe line in pointing right of your intended aim line while putting, I think that is why you pull putts. Your mind knows you are aimed too far right and it pulls your hands across to compensate. You might want to look at algning your shoulders hips and toe line along your intended aim line to improve your putting.
I'm not a great golfer, my WHS is 23.2. But I'm averaging 34 puts per 18, not that it makes me an expert. I just hoped to be helpful, take it out leave it. I love your channel. It's much more relatable watching someone like myself play than a PGA teacher. Keep up the great work!
It absolutely does mean playing better, that’s not a hook. It’s a draw , if you don’t know that then you probably haven’t been playing golf very long or either that or lying.
@@BogeyGolfUK See you play I realise i have had so much luck reaching 25,4 hcp. Start of this season is proof of that. I am closer to 35 than 25 😂😂😂🏌♂️🏌♂️
@@BogeyGolfUK I feel you brother. I loved your video. You deserved go under 100 today. You had some bad breaks with the short game and some putts. But you are getting there.
Even if you're playing for a draw with a closed stance you don't want to be lined up at the trees! I mentioned your alignment on the last video because it's sooooo easy for those ones to cost you 4/5/6 strokes in a round. They're killers!
I don't know how you film and play i couldn't, Work on your short game, putt only one ball on the P/Green. If your S/Game is polished it takes the pressure off the rest of your game Golfsidekick has heaps of great info and tips on his YT channel its worth having a look.
Just found your channel. One observation: On your short shots, you are very hunched over the ball, contributing to your mis-hits. It doesn’t allow a smooth follow-through.

Thank you!
Honestly you have the best swing I have ever seen for a 28 handicap! It’s gonna be dropping very soon. Keep working on the short game 👍🏽
Thanks! Will do!
Nice to see that I'm not the only one using the entire course.
We are the many 😂
You really have been pumping out the content and I love it. You’re getting more birdie putts and creating more opportunities for yourself with your punchy safe shots out of the trees.
I’m trying to get more out there, glad you’re appreciating it mate!
Yeah sensible play is the way forward for me!
Love sharing this journey with you my man! Such a positive attitude, it makes me feel better about being a high handicap golfer.
Thanks mate!

It is amazing how one bad shoot leads to many more as we get frustrated. Just swing easy and keep the head down. You are improving but I am sure not fast enough for you. Take care and hope you have a Merry Christmas!
I know it’s so true. Thank you my man have a great Christmas 🤝
Favourite golf RUclips at the moment. The play is improving no doubt, not really reflected in the scores. Enjoying the journey!
High praise! Thank you very much indeed 🙌
Love the channel and the vibe you have even when you shank a shot into the jungle or the drink 😂
You have to laugh 😂
Congrats man. Putting come on leaps and bounds and definitely reflected on your score card. Superb. Keep it going

Appreciate it!!
Mate your golf is improving massively! Keep smashing the course and the content, let’s have a round soon!
Hey Levan, thanks man appreciate it! Why not?! 👍
Swing looks good mate. Pretty sure this handicap will come tumbling down in no time
Cheers mate !
Unlucky there. Your swing has definitely improved since you slowed your backswing and it’s giving you a more consistent strike
Thanks mate, yeah generally speaking I’m really happy with how my swing is looking. Short game need A LOT of work now 😂

Thanks man I appreciate that

Yeah it was looking good after that start 😂 good luck with your journey brother 💪
The tee in the hat is a legendary bit of innovation 😂👌
Enjoy watching you play!
Do you do any chipping practice before you tee off?
A few full shots ,some chipping and putting before I tee off can really help ☝️
Very rarely to be honest.. I think it shows😂
I feel your pain mate, the struggle is real.....! 😂
Oh yes 😂

Well said! I’ve definitely been too tense over the golf ball. We’re getting a little better but there’s a long way to go!
Quit an improvement from the last I watched you. Keep it up.
A little work on the wedge play, but who doesn't need that? 😊
Enjoyed the adventure, thanks for the fun.
❤ 🏌️ ✌️
Appreciate the support thank you!
Matey, you will get there, your game is coming along with your putting becoming a little more consistent length wise. You just have to find the right club for the tee and you h/cap will start dropping and your scores will improve👍👍
Thanks Steve 🙌🙌
Blud you’re ball striking is great. Your scores will shoot down very quickly the next few years!
I hope you’re right 🤞
Your putting is improving, well done. Less loft around the greens is your friend, stick with the PW for now.
That's the plan! Thank you 🙌
I just found this video, and i love it. I feel like i am watching myself play. I see some good shots and some bad. Just wondering has your game improved?
Annoyingly not by much. I’m down to a 22hcp
wow you've improved a lot drop some shots on that short game youll be away mate your ball striking is on point enjoy the content.
Thanks brother 💪
Nice Videos and great sincere content. Can you please add the info of the chosen club for each shot, and the Par of the current Hole?
Maybe meters would be nice also.
I try to say the club and yardage before every shot. Sometimes I forget my apologies 🙌
Keep at it mate !
Thanks man 🙌
your iron striking is generally really good
Thank you it’s definitely the strongest part of my game. Relatively speaking 😂
Swing looking really solid mate great work. You getting a practice round in at the Belfry before the big finale?
Thanks buddy! I am hopefully yeah, just need to get a round booked in. I think I would regret not 👍
New to your channel. Saw your first tee shot and thought 'I'm off 28, how the fuck is this lad off 28?!' The relatable golf followed.
Haha I love this comment! Don’t be fooled by the occasional really aesthetic swing 😂
Nice surprise video.
Keeping you in your toes Mike

@@RyEvns at the time of this video probably just over a year ago
I've only watched the first 30 seconds of the video so far, how in the world are you a 28 handicap with a swing like that brother 😂
Tell me about it!😭😭 24 now but still

Get a LAB putter and a Ping or Cleveland chipper. You’ll save yourself at least 10 strokes, but probably more.
I’ve heard good things about lab putters. Too pricy for me though 😂
If you ever feel that way inclined I would love to know your club yardages.
What’s in the bag and yardages video coming soon!
Do you intentionally point your feet way right to account for a slight hook?
More like a baby draw 😂 my alignment generally sucks haha
Didn't even mention the excavator on hole 2 Haha
It had a bit of everything 😂
Amazing how a 85mph golf ball can be stopped dead by a 5mm twig and a leaf
90% air I’m told 😂
Woo spoiler alert
You don’t expect people that actually play golf to believe this person’s a 28 handicap that it’s a draw😂😂😂

I just watched the first 15 seconds and based on your swing I think you could easily be single digits with some refinement
Wow thank you. I do sometimes feel as though my swing looks better than it plays but really appreciate the compliment 🤝
May I say that it appears you line up facing right of target occasionally? At least, it appears that way on video.
I tend to always aim right. I think what it sometimes right side of fairway is actually aimed wayy out to the rough…
