Been following your content for a couple years when I started getting into golf. I suffered a random spinal cord stroke about a year ago and was paralyzed from the waist down. It's been a long road back and I'm able to stand up but not walk yet. I've been starting to watch golf videos again after my time away recovering as I'm starting to work towards the possibility of playing again someday. Please keep up the awesome content!
Here in Tralee SW Ireland Andy, we've had our wettest winter in years which has seriously disrupted our golf plans. I'm lucky to be a member of the majestic Tralee Golf Links so only have to contend with overhead not underfoot conditions. Bad as things are there's always next week. I also find that a well stocked hip flask eases the pain ! 😉
You wanted a comment so il give you one you probably were not expecting as it’s not golf related 😂 as a designer I really appreciate the production of your videos. The font is super classy, the way you film it is very different to what’s in the golf RUclips space which is very much like a sports broadcast style. Top work to all involved
That’s very nice to read and much appreciated
What sort of design work James? We may need your help
web design and graphic design hit me up if you need anything @@TheAverageGolfer

This channel has evolved from a wack it smash it club review channel. It is now a channel I really enjoy the views and scenery. I have not been in the UK since 1992 but it all seems so familiar. I lived there for 4 years and really enjoyed the people and the golf courses. It is an experience I will never forget and is one of my best memories of all. I'm a born and raised Texan so saying another country is a special memory says a lot about the people there.
Just watch this,and I'm very happy with his new content you bring us on at this current time. People need to just to live in the present. Sometimes people need to lighten up. Have fun and continue to do what your doing because the concept is awesome!! Love the drone and photos of the courses and places you visit. Keep it up and if there is someone complains, tough. Keep moving forward. I'm a big support of what your doing, and I love the PXG product line. Also, your staff is great. Have a wonderful week ahead and keep being positive.
Lovely comment to read 🙏
All real golfers have had days like these. Sometimes they are the best days with no 3 putts or duck hope but filled with future expectations. 😎
I'm in the Mid-Atlantic in the US and partially decided to play through the winter because I saw you playing through much worse conditions and making it work. I have been in love with a driver for the very first time. It's my own version of a Baby-Driver using a PXG 0211, 10.5 degrees, and a Stiff flex 3W shaft. I love the sound and feel of the driver (whether I hit it cleanly or not). I probably lose 10-15 yards had I used a 45" shaft, but I'm in the fairway more than ever. Thanks for the thoughtful, poetic, contemplative content.
Hi Andy, being it is so early in the season, nothing is required other than patience. The rain will cease, weather will change to the better and off you'll go! Ignore the negative comments, they aren't worth any of our time. Thank you and Tracy for the excellent videos and thanks to PXG for sponsoring. All good? if not buckle up and hang on for another great season coming soon to a golf course near you (Canadian viewer). Hugs to both of you!
I inadvertently stumbled onto this channel and found it to be different from just about every other golf-related channel I've ever watched. As a retired Designer, Art Director, and Creative Director, I found everything from the music, to the layouts, titles, fonts, camera work, and design of your videos to be superior to just about everything else I've viewed on RUclips. Your laid back, understated style is comforting while not putting me to sleep and the content ranges from interesting, to wonderful.
Please do keep up the exceptional work.
Aloha!
It’s very flattering to read feedback with a creative background, hope you continue to enjoy
I felt like this from the first camera take and on. Smart and tasteful!
I look forward to the channel content, the artistic element to it - sometimes things just don’t quite work out but i still enjoyed my ‘average fix’. Keep them coming 😊
Not only raining in Bala Andy. Went to Gold Coast region in Australia for two months recently and whilst weather was hot there there was plenty of rain as well. Took my 10 y o grandson to the local public course to get him involved in golf. Never seen so much water on a course. Still he scored his first par on a par 3 so it was worth it. Keep up the excellent content. Love it.
Brilliant Andy. Have been watching your content for years. And haven't missed too many. Love the content. Just keep up the good work buddy. Your loyal viewers will keep on watching.
The dedication and passion is obvious to see, in spades, Andy. Bala looks a lot like Windermere, which I love, so I hope you'll get back there and give us the Average Golfer creative touch to show what its all about. Keep doing what you're doing. As far as I'm concerned, my Monday evening is not complete without my fix from you.
I’m sure I’m like many, I click on the channel for the entertainment I know I’ll get from watching. I barely take note of the title, but when I do I’ll eventually get the connection between the content and the title. You usually bring them together at some point. Changing tack, I hope the weather improves soon, you deserve a break.
think we ave all had enough of the rain even down south no golf four 4 weeks now and when we do manage to get on the course the fairways are so wet we loose balls in the middle of fairways when we actually manage to hit one love the photo of the week and content is always enjoyable look forward to your v logs keep on going there great
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for being so real. I think we all feel your passion true the screen. You show what golf is (or shoud be) all about...all the great times on beautyful corses, and you also show all the frustration golf sometime is.... keep up the VERY good work
Keep it going Andy, brighter days are coming. Another idea for a ‘filler’ episode for when we inevitably get bad weather is to map out for us the different courses you’ve been to in the series so far, talk about which area of the UK you’d like to explore later in the year etc!
Great idea
This is a great idea. I am currently planning two trips with my wife and friends to the Scottish and English countryside and every video you post only motivates me more to explore this wonderful path you are experiencing.
Great idea
Here in Southern Virginia we are having beautiful spring weather. 65TO70F most days. Wish you were here bro.
Thanks for the video! I enjoyed the slice of reality, love your positivity too. I'm in Los Angeles, so I won't bore you with our weather situation. Suffice to say I have not missed many days of golf this winter. All the best to you guys!
Hi Andy! I watch a lot of golf content on youtube and enjoy most of it. I discovered your channel about a year ago and was pleased that your content is so different from most other youtube golfers. I can't wait for Mondays, lol. Here in SW Ontario, Canada, we usually don't get to golf between November and March. Even though your weather might not always be conducive to your game, I envy the fact that you can often play during the winter on the British Isles and Ireland. Keep the content coming Andy and I'll keep watching. Love it!
Always enjoys your input and updated product information! Thank you.
Always entertaining, Andy, thanks. I'm in Brisbane, Australia, and the weather here is almost always good for golf. When we do get rain, it's more of a storm or two that pass within the hour. A normal day for this time of the year is around 30 degrees C and 85% humidity. Perfect😁👍
I've always enjoyed your content Andy! The more small cinematic and artistic approach that romanticizes golf versus just club and brand reviews. Keep providing the great content!
the vibe of your content is so relaxing and serene. makes me want to slow my swing down a little, then flush an absolutely perfect and effortless shot.
I’m a huge fan of the recent content change. The beautiful courses/scenery, the fantastic videography and the laid back music… it’s just a joy to watch. Thank you!
Hi Andy. Even though this episode was dampened by the rainy weather, we golfers understand we cannot control certain things in life.
I still enjoyed the 'wet' scenery and your commentary about your WITB. Through your many episodes from a few years back, I have listened to your PXG reviews and now have mostly PXG clubs except the putter and driver.
Thanks for all you do for this channel.... See you next week.
I am in Potugal this week Andy, and the weather is good. I think your video this week echos most British golfers thoughts, throughout this winter. All we can hope for is a nice summer !
I feel your pain. Last 3 weekends have been rained out for me. Thanks for the videos they are fantastic! Love the whole vibe.
Love this series. It's different. It's different, when all others are trying to be different but end up being all the same. Great stuff 👍🏼
Keep up the great travel content. Living my golf journeys vicariously through you.
At the moment I have the opposite weather, I live in Thailand and the temperatures are reaching into the high 30’s C, so we start very early in the mornings. I love your videos, the places you visit, the scenery you show, the commentary you give. Keep on doing what you are doing, never listen to negative people.
Love the style/editing of the start of the video. Really nice
Currently working and living in southwestern Idaho. Very snowy and wet year. Yesterday was 70°F and by Thursday we will have more snow. Crazy year. As to this week's content.....love it. This is about life. Not staged, just a look into a game that one week we absolutely love and the next week question why in the world we play it. Great stuff, Andy! See you next week.
Having met you Andy (only at the av golfer event) and seen how you supported local societies in our area in years gone by with bunkers I have full respect for the direction you’ve put your channel in.
My club here in local Chester, has openly said how bad this winter has been for golf, barely meeting members expectations (which isn’t there fault)
Shame on Bala, haven’t played it and living in Chester I would I have loved to seen it show cased. Here’s to next time 👍
From a fellow struggling golfer in the great state of Tennessee, USA, I enjoy your videos and the series. As a wise man once told me 40 years ago, "Some folks just open their mouth to change feet." Might fit the same people that find fault with the content. Keep up the great work. 👍
In Redcliffe, Queensland our major rainfall is in the summer months.
My first few months at the local club were regularly washed out by torrential rains. I was often the only one on the course, as I started my golf in South Australia and we played regardless of the conditions. I did get discouraged and almost walked off at the ninth when I looked for my well-driven ball in the middle of the fairway, only to find a 20cm deep "river" running across the fairway where I was sure my ball shoud have been!
This year, we had a few closed course days (sea level holes are a particular issue), but the past two weeks have seen regular closures. The rain is more like the steady rain found in more southern cities in winter. Overnight minimum temeratures have not dropped below 20C for months, so Redcliffe is quite pleasant, regardless..
I’ve enjoyed your content for the last 3 years and I envy your simple straight forward content and your golf swing
Thank you and Cheers
Here in Tasmania Australia it hasn’t rained for almost three months so we are in bush fire season… we are still watering our golf course heavily but we could do with some rain . Makes sense for you and the beloved to spend this time of year in the southern parts of Oz as it’s hot and wet in the northern parts . Don’t forget New Zealand as well as it’s glorious there as well . Look forward to seeing you next year here 😊
Andy, your content is unique and amazing. The photography is truly special. I love seeing all of the out of the way golf courses. We all dream of playing some of these one day.
Keep up the creative content. I just love it.
I remember seeing a movie years ago where it rained all the time even more than you are fed up with Andy. It was “All Summer in a Day” a short film based on a 1954 science fiction story by Ray Bradbury. It takes place on Venus. It rains constantly and the sun is visible only for two hours every seven years. One child moved from Earth five years ago and so is the only one who has seen the sun. She describes it but the children do not believe her. When the day comes that the sun will shine, one boy with a mean streak convinces the others to lock the girl in a closet so she will not be able to go out in the sun. The children have a gleeful time in the sun and forget the girl. When it starts to rain again and they must go back inside, they cry as they realize they will not see the sun again for seven years. One child then remembers the girl and lets her out of the closet. They are all ashamed as they now realize what they have denied her.
I just love the ambiance in the channel. Regardless of the weather, another smashing. Spring is coming, fear not.
Andy I feel for you. I live in Arizona and this has been a horrible winter. Rain and wind and snow in some parts of the state. Keep doing what you do. I love your channel
Dear Andy , it’s more than pleasure to support your channel. The reason is fairly simple, your content is amazing and you’re a great fellow. Hope the weather improves soon and you have more fun playing golf. 😊😊😊😊🇩🇪
I always look forward to your new videos and start that day with a smile. Thanks for your hard work and humor!
Andy, being from the PNW, USA I am alway amazed by how few minutes it takes to wash away the gray when the sun comes out. Just had our first sunny couple of days and it's always worth the wait !
all the best and thanks
Thanks so much for finally showing your shoes Andy! It rains constantly where I live in western Pennsylvania and I've been trying for the longest time to figure out what you were wearing. Thanks again from one "adult" to another! Cheers!
Andy ,just to drive that far in the current state of our weather shows your dedication to your work. Everywhere down my way in Somerset is closed or if open the course is sodden and should be closed . Admittedly i have gone out and played just to get out and swing the clubs , but while watching this post i have received an email telling me our society day on Friday is off as the club we where going to already thinks they will be shut.!! Onward and upward Andy its got to stop sometime, look forward to the next episode.
Hi Andy. I left the UK 18 years ago to live in sunny Brisbane, Australia. Trouble is this summer (which is just ending for us) has been consistently hotter and more humid than usual - making it very uncomfortable to play golf in - so like you, kept off the course by the weather, but in a different way, Consequently, our winter is the best time of year to play over here when it cools down a bit. On a different note, I've been inspired by your travels and next time I'm in the UK I intend to bring my clubs over and check out one or two of the courses you've featured. Keep up the great work team - inspirational!
We've just had a week of 60's/70's here in PA on the east coast of the US. I got out for 4 days straight and now it's a breezy 40 degrees. Today, I'm watching the golf course maintenance workers punch and sand the greens. Hoping for a turn back to nice weather but the long term forecast is normal for March....50's and breezy. Oh well. The game was good and ready for 2024. Cheers Andy!
Keep the vids coming, summers just around the corner, loving the trying the tips clips, great work mate
A little gem of a video from a washout situation. Something beautiful from the rubbish cards you were dealt. Loved it
Here in the Southwest area of the Sunshine State in the US. Always enjoy your videos Andy. Have been following you for a few years. I have enjoyed all your latest videos and their predecessors. Just filled the bag up with PXG (Spec Ops Driver, 5 & 7 Woods, 5 & 6 Hybrids, 7-GP 311P Black Elite Irons, Sugar Daddy 56 & 52. Using the Jumbo Max Strght8 Tech XS grips which I just switched to from one of their other grips. Love your channel because I, like you are an "Average Golfer". Keep on doing what you're doing, I look forward to each and every posting. Keep'em in the middle...
This feels like the most difficult winter I can remember for your type of content. Please stick with it we believe in you. Looking forward to more of your stunning videos
I live in Western Pennsylvania in the USA and it's still cold and windy. Today is a high of 40° with 15 mph winds. Getting closer to golf weather... Can't control the elements Andy but I really love the off the beaten path series.
You're living my dream. Travelling the countryside in an RV visiting and playing golf courses. Even the rain doesn't turn me off. Best wishes from the States.
Christchurch, New Zealand , has had great weather. We may have only lost a couple of days since October. All your videos offer a sense of relaxation & with all the terrible things going on in the world what a way to start our day. All I hear from the bedroom in the morning is “ is that that laconic Englishman again”. Regards Gus
Good luck Andy. Hope you get some good weather soon.
Great to see you at any
time Andy.
At some point the rain will ease & you will be able to present from your natural environment of the golf links.
However it's good to see some of the golf items other players may carry as its not information we, as golfers often exchange.
Keep up the superb work on your you tube channel.
Oh the joy of this winter and the constant drowning from the heavens above. Thanks for keeping going throughout all this and also well done PXG sponsoring a decent person. Forget over exposed pros well done the rain soaked lovers of this wonderful game.
This maybe my favorite video yet. I look forward to your videos every Monday turning into my favorite channel. Sorry for the poor weather and hoping it turns around soon.
Even though you didn’t get out to play the scenery is still remarkable! Thank you for the explanation of your shoes. Saw them couple weeks ago
Well done Andy for trying to showcase all the great clubs in Wales - it’s fair to say the weather this winter has been awful but it’s great to see you trying to show off some of the great venues we have to offer - keep up the good work!
Love Bala & Blenau area, I reckon I've been down the slate mine near to where those beautiful lodges are now. Your videos have me itching to return. Thanks Andy. 👍
Hi Andy only 11 holes open at Cleethorpes GC today but that's better than none . It's difficult to be patient but we all need to hang in there. Shorts on soon 😂
The new direction and content is great. I enjoy seeing the courses and places visited.
Just been to one of the only 3 courses playable in the Sheffield area (Bondhay), and even then it was only just!
Weather forecast by the (lying) BBC Weather app was for dull and dry.
It started raining as soon as we got there for our midday tee time, and continued to tip down for the first 5 holes.
But the rain did ease off and stop for the back nine, and we did enjoy the round.
I think the key is pessimistic amounts of bad weather clothing and playing 'Better Ball' to make it more fun.
You are never going to get a decent strokeplay score when it's this muddy.
Hat's off to you and Tracy for keeping this series going Andy.
The good times are a coming!
Andy, your passion for golf & photography/videography are evident. Keep fighting the good fight!
It's been a terrible Winter in the UK, I'm in Scotland and we've had 7 storms since November! Keep the good work up Andy I always look forward to these videos, all the best to you all
I love the cinematography of your videos recently, despite the lack of golf, its great to see the wider UK
Love your content, dedication and honesty. You are one of the few objective golf channels, that's why I am a dedicated follower...thanks
Keep up the good work. You're the only RUclips golf channel I enjoy watching anymore.
I live in Central Massachusetts USA, and the weather has been nice but a little windy lately. I'm really looking forward to start playing golf again. I've been working on certain aspects of my game, mostly swing tempo and short putts. The weather will get better in the UK, Andy. Hang in there!
Thanks for getting a video together, Andy. Keep grinding mate, the sun must surely shine!!?
Even without golf, your travelogue is fabulous. Keep it up!
Even in bad weather your out there doing your thing for us. I enjoyed the video even though you didn't golf. The scenery is to die for watching it from the Arizona desert 😃
Enjoy your videos every week . Thanks for your insights.
Good luck, fingers crossed the weather finally improves🙏
Love your alternative golf channel I follow a few and there all very different keep em coming 👍🏻
Great video as usual. Golf is not just sunny days and warm weather. It's also about getting your round rained out and being "forced" to find an open pub to drink away your sorrows with some good friends. Cheers Andy.
Keep up the awesome job Andy!! Hey tough to beat that kind of weather. Hang in there we will wait for hopefully another wonderful video!! Thank you!
Great stuff Andy love your videos, weather wet in Ireland, but we've managed to play 8 of 10 weeks our grounds staff here in Coollattin Golf brilliant
Northern Midwest USA (State of Michigan) here. It's been a mild winter with a few chances to get out and play outdoors so far. The state is usually covered in a foot of snow right now so I'm not complaining too much. In the warm months, Michigan is a golf Mecca with lush beautiful courses. Can hardly wait.
Always frustrating being rained out. Looking forward to blue skies so you can get back out there. Cheers!
Wet in Ireland’s sunny south east as every where. However played 18 holes today in Tramore GC recently voted pest parkland course in Munster. What a joy, some mud off the fairways but beautiful greens.
So good to have someone doing British golf courses and battling the elements. Big change from here in sunny Dubai.
Hi Andy
You are not wrong about the weather. It's been so wet since October last year. You are not alone in being fed up with it. On a positive note hopefully spring is coming!
I live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. This used to be known as the Frozen North©but we've had the mildest Winter ever. Quite warm, very little snow and the farmers are already preemptively complaining about a coming drought!
Ah the British weather, I do miss it, well sometimes, here in Vienna Austria, it is cold today (started at -2 this morning) , we had two days of rain last week, that is a lot for this time of year. Most of the courses here close for the majority of the winter months. They are now open again as of last week. You could do worse than come here. There are some wonderful courses to play and their condition is amazing. Keep up the great work you are all doing, I really enjoy catching up with you every week regardless of whether you get to play and show off a course. I bet Bala GC is wonderful on a better weather day. Glamping in Wales looks rather good. I might have to try that on my next visit home.
Love the booties, bless 🙌. Get the rain glove on and crack on (if the course is open) has been my mantra for this winter. Looking forward to some dry fairways soon. Love the videos ❤
The golfer in me LOVES your content! The history teacher in me LOVES your content! The history teacher would also love to see some photos and footage of ruined castles you may come across on these courses. Keep up the great work!
Still the best golf channel
I subscribe to … your travels inspire me to get out and do the same!! Father and young son golf in St Andrews in June inspired by your recommendations. Thank you. It’s his first visit.
Definitely not clickbait, you're spot on we've all had enough of this lousy weather in the UK. I have a week off in April and am hoping for at least 1 day I can get a round of golf in. But if not a grind at the driving range may take out my frustration. Anyway ignore the morons who can't differentiate between clickbait and genuine content and allow the rest of us to enjoy your journey. I think the PXG collab will help your consistency no end. :)
I really enjoy this type of content both the visual and and sound track combo ,very nicely put together hopefully the courses around uk will start to dry out and we can get off mats and back to playing properly
Another fantastically filmed work of art
Love the scenery and quality editing, always enjoy your content. Watching from Willamette Valley, Oregon.
Great content as always Andy and fair play to you for keeping on trying to get out on the course in the awful weather we are continually having especially in the North west of England 👍
Just watched this today and subscribed , I really enjoyed it and your honesty looking forward to the future episodes all the best
Thanks for joining us
I for one am overjoyed that we are now seeing some faint signs of spring in the air , I locate in Scotland and as you can imagine it’s been a disastrous winter weather wise up here
I play for my clubs winter league team and we had more cancelled games this winter than we played
My course is highly prone to flooding and has a constant high water table so even the mere threat of rain means the course floods and stops any form of play
Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope the weather gets better soon . All the best
Callum
Andy - Your content is always enjoyable and adds a much needed human element to golf videos. Even when things go wrong you manage to infuse your work with a sense of humour and warmth. Don't be put off by the lunatic fringe. Cheers. Norman
As always Andy, great video and content. It has been raining a lot in Northern California but we are having fine weather right now. 75° and sunny!! Rain this weekend.
👍
Springtime in the northeast US is usually dicey as well. Had a beautiful day 2 weeks ago followed by cold and rain ever since. BTW, great choice with the Glebfarclas 15…one of my favorites!
Weather here in central USA, Iowa is currently seasonal. Meaning for March, still colder with days of warm. All depends on wind. This is a big change for us this year as we had warmer temps starting early February thru last week. Warm enough to golf and courses opened in record early time. Now, with normal, we are again waiting for warmth but still can play with days in the 40s degree range. Be well.
