    RGC and EAL literally have created a diary we can all visualize and relate to . I love how it accentuates history, blends the creativity of the sport into a vibrant understanding of not just golf but the landscape around it. These videos really makes you want to play, be better, and with these vlogs creates a distinct understanding at how difficult these courses are for pros let alone the average golfer. Idk, maybe I’m rambling, but it’s something unique and special. Glad to be apart of the RGC family, thank you for all your hard work into giving us this content i truly mean that. Keep it real 17b

    This was amazing. EAL is Bourdainian in his delivery and his connection to the viewer It makes the experience real and gives the viewer a sense of empathy. Add to it the sound design where the wind becomes a character in and of itself. The wind almost responds to his strikes and gives us a sense of the difficulty and impact as the imagery of the course does for each bunker and hazard. Can't wait for Torrey and more of the major championship coverage.

    I have only been playing for a little over two years. I played in 20-30 MPH winds and it's a completely different and unenjoyable golfing experience.

    I haven't even started the video and I just yelled out "yes!!!" when I saw it was up! Stoked to watch this!

    I think we can all identify with that feeling of "it's not so hard" as your short term memory saves you from the perspective of your entire round. All you need is one birdie.

    Honestly watching these makes me so happy and sad at the same time. Happy to know that I am not that only one who struggles with this game we love. :D Where days go and I can't find a fairway to save my life but sad that I'm probably never going to see all of these great courses (either due to exclusivity or price). Don't get me wrong, I am appreciative of the content and I think it is done incredibly well. Just makes me wish I had more skill and time and resources to go on some of these adventures myself.

    I will be there tomorrow, I just started playing last year, super pumped to see some pros smash some balls. Looking forward to learning a lot tomorrow

    Erik, as you’re filming these you do a GREAT job at keeping your cool. Is there ever real moments of frustration/WTF am I doing here?!

      Ya absolutely. Pebble was the hardest bc it was new to me. Now I know that you don’t really care if I break 90, so I feel less pressure. In fact, that’s all who and it has taught me quite a bit about why I play the game, why I got into it and what I love the most about it. And it ain’t the scorecard. Don’t get me wrong, that’s a great triumphant aspect.. But I play for peace mixed with challenge. Not the other way around.
