I had a coaching lesson last week, and I’m working on my wrist actions in the swing and it’s straightened me out no end, to the point I dropped ten shots on my last round, I’m itching to get out again and work on it more
Excellent work Mr Carter , love your honesty and upbeat demeanour even when you’re in a tough position. The commentary is so good , really feel the connection between you and the subscriber.
Half way through the video, so thought I’d drop a like and comment - enjoyed it so far. I was living in Bristol when I first took up golf, and some great courses in the area. I was a member at The Players Club, and also The Bristol, which are very different, but both well worth a visit. The Kendleshire is also down that way, and has some great holes. Knowle used to be lovely, but not played there for years. I’m at Brickhampton now and also help to run a business networking golfers group at Lilley Brook in Cheltenham. Definitely give the Players a look - awesome course and insanely tough off the back back tees!!
Andy - Great video and great golf!! You are a GREAT putter inside 10 feet. Impressive. I wonder how many of us would have missed a few of those putts. Driver, wedges and putter are the key to the game. Question. I let my arms/elbows separate too much at the top which gets the club too far behind me. What do you think about Pete’s drill to swing the club back cross handed to get the feeling of the club more in front of the body and then “spin” the right arm down to impact. Would love to see a video from you addressing this. I think so many golfers have this same problem. Love your videos. Please keep posting. Thanks. Jim
I really like playing courses without a ton of prior knowledge, it kind of takes some pressure off the shot. I just accept my choices and the outcome no questions asked. The same is true for me in the wind, wind makes a normal day and adventure. Well played Andy , the new putter is working better.
Awesome course there Andy. Currently I am having to rebuild my swing. About 3 weeks ago I was practicing flighting down my 9-iron to learn a low 150-yd shot to keep in the arsenal. I should have never done that. My normal 9-iron was usually 140-145 yards. In doing so, I somehow lost the ability to make good contact. Shanks, slices, and sky high ball flights now. It seriously looks like I am a first timer. LOL. Only my driver is still doing well. I can hit driver dead straight and carry it I'm assuming 280-ish. When using apps to track shots the driver distance is anywhere from 300 to 285. I do have trouble trying to draw or fade driver shots. Seem to always over do it. So straight is what I stick too. However, everything else is no good. I believe I developed a massive 'over the top' motion and I am having a heck of a time dialing my swing back in. I have always gone to the driving range 3-4 times per week and for the past two seasons my swing has been amazing. I attribute that to changing to an interlock grip from the baseball style grip. When I made that grip change everything must have fell in order....because I gained 15 to 20 yards depending on the club. That's all gone though in the past 3 weeks. edit: Also chip shots from inside 25-yds is spot on as well. That's the favorite part of my game the past 5 years.
Working on strike ! I few weeks ago I had a bad case of shanks. I've had to setup a touch farther from the ball and that seems to have helped. Still a work in progress.
Brilliant vlog Andy - very entertaining and enjoyable. Great to say you in the red again. My current issue is getting the down swing right - some of it is bad habits creeping in plus Ive got lower back issues. But I'm keeping at it!
Another very enjoyable video and congratulations on breaking par again. I'm working on creating lag thereby overcoming both early release and extension. When I get it right the ball strike feels amazing.😊
you should start using aimpoint.. you seem to have a few bad reads on first putts.. It has changed my game as I occasionally make real long putts or at least leave myself short second putts. And unlike me you don't miss those cleanup short putts.. :) You're hitting it really well lately.. Keep it up bro.
Strokes gained stats would be interesting. You said it - "not getting up and down from around the green." Looks like a couple of hours a week on the chipping area would knock off a couple of shots per round on average.
Nicely done👍 Good to see you've got someone helpjng on camera now (or some sort of awesome AI😂) Hopefulky onwards and upwards for the subscribers your content deserves
Great round Andy! A question for you. I noticed when you teed up a 2 iron, you picked it up clean off the tee with no divot. What's the difference off the tee between say, a 2 iron and an 8 iron, in regards to tee height, and deciding whether to take a divot or not? Been struggling a bit with that lately. Cheers
The tee height on a 2i is ever so slightly higher but the angle of attack into the ball will be different as the 2i is longer with a more forward ball position so likely to be picked off the tee cleaner without a divot
Hey Andy, I have a question for you. On a couple of the opening holes you wanted to execute a fade or slight cut with the driver. I noticed that you teed the ball on the left hand side of the tee box. I was taught that you open up more of the hole if you tee up on the right hand side. Was it a feel thing for you to tee on the left hand side?
Good round, considering you had no prior course knowledge and had no course book, app, watch, to refer to. I am looking forward to the next instalment .
hello andy this is my first time watching you, i just got a new job at long ashton golf club and i am very new to golf, i would love to be in a video at some point.
Did you take on someone to help film or was that your significant other. Good job film by the way. Good video to watch. Thanks oops saw that other person. Still good stuff guys. Again thanks
Well played Andy!!
Another enjoyable video. The number of putts you made to make par was very impressive, making it look so easy. Many thanks.
I had a coaching lesson last week, and I’m working on my wrist actions in the swing and it’s straightened me out no end, to the point I dropped ten shots on my last round, I’m itching to get out again and work on it more
Love the description of each shot and the thought process. Well played!
Well done. Enjoyable to watch your ball striking and congrats on breaking par!
Great to watch the beautiful Long Ashton course being played so well. Thanks for sharing.
loving the simplicity of your vids at the min Andy just going at it, simpe explinations on the comentry cheers
Good playing! Under par is always a great result. Thanks for sharing
Working on more wrist hinge in the back swing and a more patient transition to downswing
Another good video Andy. I'm working on the mental side of the game, I have just re-read The inner game of Golf, and it works
As a former playing member of Long Ashton, may I compliment and thank you for a most delightful video. August, 2023.
My pleasure, thank you for your comment. It’s a lovely course
Excellent work Mr Carter , love your honesty and upbeat demeanour even when you’re in a tough position. The commentary is so good , really feel the connection between you and the subscriber.
Gotta keep that head up!!
I can see this channel becoming better and better, and I'm glad that I'm here at the beginning
Love it. Reckon you should give stockwood Vale a go see how you get on

Thanks James, there's lots of places to play in Bristol area, so i;m looking forward to ticking a few more off
Nice to see a course I’ve played a number of times.
Andy -

Hi jim, i have a few transition videos already up buddy
@@andycartergolf Thanks my friend
Well played Andy. Great video!
Hmm 'A tactical pull' took me back to my younger pre date routine 😂
😂😂😂😂
Great content again. Good to see that course up close as well.
Loved the episode, top class, I will say that a second person recording as well would make it even better
Working on ball striking. You recent videos in knee position, hip position, I am taking to the range tomorrow, then to the course at 5 PM

every time I watch Andy Carter I am reminded of Letterkenny. "To be Fair"
wow. great round.
and great camera work!

Well a very nice round enjoyed this video your becoming one of my fav's to watch ATB.
Thank you 🫶🏽
Well done Andy. Always enjoy you playing and chatting. Not the normal video quality this time.
Really? 2 camera angles, clear audio… what was missing?
Hi Andy. Re watched it and all fine. Must have been bad wi if when I watched it. All good as usual.
Working on strike ! I few weeks ago I had a bad case of shanks. I've had to setup a touch farther from the ball and that seems to have helped. Still a work in progress.
Great stuff Andy!
As always Mr Carter a real pleasure to watch...
Brilliant vlog Andy - very entertaining and enjoyable. Great to say you in the red again.
My current issue is getting the down swing right - some of it is bad habits creeping in plus Ive got lower back issues. But I'm keeping at it!
Nicely played. Very steady and your holing out looks way easier than I used to feel 😂 those greens were quick but looked good to putt on
Well played Andy.
thanks again, enjoyed it!
Another very enjoyable video and congratulations on breaking par again.
I'm working on creating lag thereby overcoming both early release and extension. When I get it right the ball strike feels amazing.😊
Nicely played 👏 Greens threw you a bit but some good ball striking.
well done I was as nervous as you.
Lets go! Good round :D
Solid golf great video
you should start using aimpoint.. you seem to have a few bad reads on first putts.. It has changed my game as I occasionally make real long putts or at least leave myself short second putts. And unlike me you don't miss those cleanup short putts.. :) You're hitting it really well lately.. Keep it up bro.
Another top video & really solid golf
Great video as always Andy.
Swing is looking solid,good round.
Nice video Andy! Hole 18 well played! Great channel
Thank you

My uncle has been a member at Long Ashton for years! Cool to see you play here Andy
Its a nice place
Former Ryder Cup player Chris Wood is the playing pro there too, great guy
Yeah i spoke to him recently actually
👏👏👏 Well done.
Nicely done👍
Good to see you've got someone helpjng on camera now (or some sort of awesome AI😂)
Hopefulky onwards and upwards for the subscribers your content deserves
Thanks Dave

Andy, re the 13th…not sure where the flag was on the green? ……flags are standard red, yellow and white?? Great to see you playing course local to me!
Chipping is all about that bounce for me.
A lot of back spin on that divot.😅 Never seen a divot chunk go backwards.
The flags are colour coded like ours. Front red, middle yellow, and back blue/white. Temporary green orange. Should save you 3 or 4 shots 😂😂
Hey Andy, I have a question for you. On a couple of the opening holes you wanted to execute a fade or slight cut with the driver. I noticed that you teed the ball on the left hand side of the tee box. I was taught that you open up more of the hole if you tee up on the right hand side. Was it a feel thing for you to tee on the left hand side?
Surely this would depend on the shape of the hole?
Great content as always Andy
Good round, considering you had no prior course knowledge and had no course book, app, watch, to refer to.
I am looking forward to the next instalment .
hello andy this is my first time watching you, i just got a new job at long ashton golf club and i am very new to golf, i would love to be in a video at some point.
Thanks and welcome. Enjoy the new role. Hopefully i’ll play there this summer
Beautiful course Andy
New drinking game "fairness" = shot of tequila....should be trashed by the back nine
Oioi Andy has a camera man 😅 going up in the world
Hahha Cameraman helping me on these videos is great
Did I just see Andy Carter in Newcastle?🤔
You Did ! Newcastle has broken me
Did you take on someone to help film or was that your significant other. Good job film by the way. Good video to watch. Thanks oops saw that other person. Still good stuff guys. Again thanks
Its a guy who helps me every now and then
Andy's score -1 me today + 21 (my HC is 19.5) smh
A great way to start the video, so you break par or shoot par! No point in watching now 😂🤦🏻♂️
Theres always a point in watching. You may learn a thing or 2 ;)
Andy ffs offer Rick some lessons he’s so bad at golf ⛳️
He has a very good business, his level of golf is irrelevant
Well played! Great video Andy. The Open is calling you, im telling ya! 🫣😉
