Jerome, don’t ever lose your great positive attitude. You are a great young man. The game will come with time. This reminds me of when I learned how to play golf as a young man. My grandpa taught me everything just like this. I golfed hundreds of rounds with him walking and carrying our bags. I learned so much about life and how to be a good respectable honorable man. How to not take golf too seriously. How to be a good sportsman. I know your learning golf right now but your also learning so many other things about life out there. Seeing a young person so excited about golf is wonderful. Stay positive and stay GOLD
I'm so glad he told you that you were lining up to the right on that 2nd or 3rd hole. It's so hard to tell if it's just our video perspective or not, but you have looked like you are lining up that way consistently - which in the end means your shots aren't as bad as you think - it's your alignment. Keep up the work!
I tried the backswing your coach recommends. It worked for me today. My drives were 15-20 yards further, fairway woods and irons were struck well and accurate. Thank you for doing your channel. I have been watching since the beginning. 😊
Having Chris there re-enforcing the lessons into practice was absolutely money. Love the banter - this seems to be the most fun we've seen from ya on the course! Great content, thanks for letting us share in the journey with ya, can't wait for part 2!
Chris was great knocking down 5 and 6 foot putts it's no joke doing it hole after hole with the camera running. Really pushing for bird and knee knockers for par. Great going Chris. Jerome that was better your heading in the right direction . I understand your high energy wants everything quick not realizing you were rushing until the ball was already played. Try calming your mind and letting the shot form or happen in your mind, breath. The mind set like sitting in a swing or a dog with his head out of the car window doing something we all love to do. Your positive attitude is a life achievement within itself. With the talented instruction your game is sure to continue to improve. Here is a question: is it harder to shoot a 70 or to shoot 90?
This is one of the best golf videos I have seen, and I have seen a lot! I really like the information that Chris shares about the rules of play and other things about the game / course he shared. You are very blessed to have him as a coach. Great job and a huge thank you Jerome and Chris.
Best video yet. I think you could benefit playing with a more experienced golfer on course more often. There's only so much you can learn on the range.
Such a good on course lesson. It’s going to take some time for your improvements to show up on the scorecard but you have improved tons. Your gonna be a very solid player soon enough. Good job!
This is great. Always valuable to play with someone much better than you , but not often you really get to pick their brain. Thanks for bringing us along . I surely learned some things and where to open my eyes and consider some things
Trying to catch up after finding channel a week or so ago. Best video yet 👍🏼 You would benefit hugely from playing with better players as much as possible 💪🏼👊🏼👍🏼
@@JeromeRufin Thanks. using your videos for inspiration on my own journey to scratch. I did play off a 10 handicap, but it was nearly 20 years ago, and my body (considerably older than yours) couldn’t take the rigorous routine you’re putting yourself through. So it will be interesting to see who gets there first, as I’m definitely racing you 🤣 Keep up the great content 💪🏼👊🏼👍🏼
Getting some Dustin Johnsson vibes from that coach of yours. Sweet tips and specially like the parts where he takes time to explain rules and such. Great video!
Watching HOF coach play is totally awesome. Awesome he did it. Wealth of knowledge and skills and thanks for making this video. Can't wait for the next playing lesson with coach. Oh and you getting better too J 😁
Good content… wow scratch to scratch is going to happen sooner then later. It’s crazy how fast your game has developed. The practice and other steps your taking is paying off
Great first shot. Some many nuances to be learned. Your first shot was not an opened face, but you aligned that way. You'll need to learn the distance of each club on a 1/4, 1/2 and full swing and alignment from the Tee box based on the shot shape. But straight shots should be the goal. I used the club to align me body by holding the club handle towards the target and align your feet and shoulders since you don't have an alignment stick in the tee box. This will lower score as well.
I know its a learning video but I'm Surprised the Coach would have you try something new on the course BUT he's your coach and he's got the right mind set and attitude. Did you all warm up prior? My son and I still use the tee to determine who goes first. Its done among friends not if paired with strangers.
Very good short game and also putting got much better. I would guess having your coach with you made you concentrate and not rush. Letting other golfers go by probably put less pressure on you too. One thing I've noticed in your other on course videos is you didn't apply your lessons you got from Chris. With Chris being there enforcing you use the drills he showed you makes all the difference. Just try to play like you were taught to practice at the range. I know it easy to forget about it all and just swing. But you're paying for this, you may as well get your moneys worth before you go broke. 😉
Your coach is awesome. I still believe your best investment would be a golf app to help you with club selection. I hear you talking down about your rang finder that should not be in your mind. A gps app will give that little bit of help to clear your mind to focus on the swing, this will help you more than you know.
Nice round. Now you're playing ! You need to find a player to go with more often, a guy (or gal) with golf IQ (the content created with an other player is great). This will help you learning the game, including the strategy, the etiquette...
Looking better ... like to see you flaring your feet just a bit though, surprise Chris hasn't been on you about it. Slow your mind and start breathing slow and deep before the shot. Let's Go !
Great Vids Jerome ! One thing i cant ignore is your Instructors breathing all the way through the video, either the mics too close or needs a muffler on it. Really spoiled the audio. Fantastic otherwise :)
That putter method is totally illegal. The rule says the putter or the gripping hand cannot be anchored to the body. You can see he's still leaning on the pivot point off his chest either directly or with his hand touching his chest on those putts. Definitely dodgey.
@17:54 I’m a huge fan of the channel and a San Diego local myself… Welks is an awesome course. But for the love of god please learn how to tee the ball up with 1 hand and not squat down and look like a complete goober 😭😭😭 this is making me cringe just watching. I’m going to finish the episode and I really hope Chris brings it up at some point to teach you how. If not - RUclips it pleaseeee 😅
@@jhrace2 no he doesn't. He's totally changed his putter. Chris is totally cheating. You can see him anchoring his hand to his chest which is totally illegal. Just 1 example, @47:47 he literally anchors, stands up, then re-anchors. Dodgy AF.
@@timmyotoole6063 he totally is. Just 1 example, @ 47:47 he literally anchors, stands up, then re-anchors. Dodgy AF. Again at 52:57 he literally touches the mic, then anchors under the mic... If you argue it's not cheating, it's clearly close enough to cheating to cast doubt

@JeromeRufin supper informative and fun video to watch … keep it up, need these videos as I’m learning as well.
This is just what you needed Jerome on course lessons. Also Jerome man the flag for your coach, it's a respect thing.
Golf courtesy... if you're done putting grab the flag and when partners done you replace flag in hole. Last person putting shouldn't have to get flag.
Jerome, don’t ever lose your great positive attitude. You are a great young man. The game will come with time. This reminds me of when I learned how to play golf as a young man.

The lesson we all wanted you to have! well done man!
Chris is a legend! So encouraging, patient and keeps reminding you to enjoy it and have fun. We should all remember that 👍
THIS IS THE ABSOLUTELY BEST WAY TO LEARN LOWER SCORES!!!! WELL DONE.
I'm so glad he told you that you were lining up to the right on that 2nd or 3rd hole.

This was your best content to date
Enjoy watching and learning a lot. Thanks.
Excellent video! I usually dont hang for an hour, but the format of learning while u play is awesome. New subscriber here!
You have come a long way in a short time. Truly a testament to what focused training can do for you.
Best video yet. I think you could benefit playing with a more experienced golfer on course more often. There's only so much you can learn on the range.
That was fun to watch. One lesson i would say is if you are 1st to finish the hole you should be the one to get the flag stick.
I really enjoy Chris' deneanor. I also love that he doesn't get too in the weeds technically with his instruction.
Such a good on course lesson. It’s going to take some time for your improvements to show up on the scorecard but you have improved tons. Your gonna be a very solid player soon enough. Good job!
Love that you did a video with course management tips... Gonna like this one
Addicted to this channel. Lordy
Me too :)
@@JeromeRufindrivershot at 40 mim so good!
Watching this episode make me want to donate money to this coach since I'm learning a lot...its like getting free advice from a great coach
I've been waiting for you guys to go out. great video!
Finally had time to finish the vid... learned some great shortgame tips.. you and your coach make a good combo.. 👍
Awesome love the videos. Great coach man
I look forward to watching this daily. Fun round.
This is great. Always valuable to play with someone much better than you , but not often you really get to pick their brain. Thanks for bringing us along . I surely learned some things and where to open my eyes and consider some things
you two get along very well : this is so sweet.
Welks Resort! Dope course for the lesson, see you around the other courses, let’s get a round in at Balboa or Bonita! 💯
More of these videos please
Trying to catch up after finding channel a week or so ago.

I am learning sooooo much from this episode. Thanks Jerome and HOF Chris!
This is quality stuff! I feel like I am benefiting from Chris’s golf IQ. Thank you for sharing.
Love Welks...great short course!
Yea boiiii let’s goooooo was looking forward to this one
Jam packed with knowledge from hole 1 to hole 9! Stay tuned for the back 9 tomorrow :)
@@JeromeRufinyou know it. Here for it all !

This was a great episode. Keep going! Your videos are very helpful for beginners. I’m learning a ton. The concept of this channel is really smart!
RUclips Gold. Thanks Jerome.
I wish I were there in that coaching lesson but I'm too cheap.
...oh I hardly ever leave comments.
Wow. Lovin’ the content. Great to see you applying every lesson on the course. Looking like a golfer! Keep grinding!
Been waiting for some on course vids, let’s gooo
Good content… wow scratch to scratch is going to happen sooner then later. It’s crazy how fast your game has developed. The practice and other steps your taking is paying off
Love this channel!
I was going to recommend this course for you. The Welk is a lotnof fun!
Chris is super cool!
Short game is looking good, keep up the good work bro

Nice instructional video Jerome, what course is this?
Aloha from Hawaii. Great episode.
You should consider using a hybrid, is more forgiving than longer irons, it would help a bit.

Very good lesson
is the car park seriously there on the first tee box? with no net?
Stop! Stop! Stop! With the every second nervous laughing!
Great coach
Nice I like this episode

Lets go Jerome, never seen so many 2 putts from you.
Chris creates a sonic boom when he swings.
insta like. hell yeah
Holy smokes my family just stayed at the welks 2 weeks ago. That's crazy.
What golf course is it?
Hi, where is this course at?
Quick tip. Use the golf ball to push the tee into the ground.
Thank goodness he's getting some etiquette coaching lol.
Nice round. Now you're playing ! You need to find a player to go with more often, a guy (or gal) with golf IQ (the content created with an other player is great). This will help you learning the game, including the strategy, the etiquette...
And how many times did you hit the 60?
Can we get a “inside the bag” video?
1st hole and I see a mulligan and a long putter. Cmon coach!
What course is this ?
The left side shoulder strap needs to be tightened up... but other than that.. great vid !
Looking better ... like to see you flaring your feet just a bit though, surprise Chris hasn't been on you about it.
Slow your mind and start breathing slow and deep before the shot. Let's Go !
"is this mine or yours" LMAO bro you're funny
😂 🙃
It's okay to put the pin back 😊
For the Algo!
Great Vids Jerome ! One thing i cant ignore is your Instructors breathing all the way through the video, either the mics too close or needs a muffler on it.
Really spoiled the audio.
Fantastic otherwise :)
I have never in 40 years span a ball back, maybe check a little but rarely
Your backswing has gotten massively slower..Well done coach 👍
It's hilarious that you can't stick to the routine even when you have Chris there reminding you. 😂
Umm can we get my man a legit range finder!! Someone sponsor and send him one!! Lol
Let’s goo 😂
The pro puts the coin down in front of the ball then places the ball in front of the coin when he places it back down. 😂
Did you cut out a bad shot @39:40? sneaky bugger.
Chris’s clubs look too small for him. Weird
Felt same. He got the swing dialed for it but felt he was having to bend over so much
That’s just his way to be Shallow
Swing actually looks nicer than coach's
Haha he is not destroying you! Your handicap is probably around 25+ so you're actually beating him dude!
Quote of the day: “Do the drill.”
i still think that is to much of a flat swing if iv ever seen one
Get. The. Flag.
That putter method is totally illegal. The rule says the putter or the gripping hand cannot be anchored to the body. You can see he's still leaning on the pivot point off his chest either directly or with his hand touching his chest on those putts. Definitely dodgey.
Nobody cares bro
He's lifting his head u looks like why the club is open so much
@17:54 I’m a huge fan of the channel and a San Diego local myself… Welks is an awesome course.

Lol you def need a different coach if you want to become scratch
Not tending the flag for the coach started getting a little annoying
Jerome, you're like a toddler who has had too much chocolate. Lol, slow down, dude, listen to Chris. How many Mulligans?
If I had more lessons with Chris I’d take as many as I could. It’s not like he’s competing yet, this is just for learning
Hard to listen to his whiney comments
Chris is a cheater with the long putter
he could probably out putt you with a broom if he wanted...
he's not anchoring
Adam Scott does the same thing
@@jhrace2 no he doesn't. He's totally changed his putter. Chris is totally cheating. You can see him anchoring his hand to his chest which is totally illegal. Just 1 example, @47:47 he literally anchors, stands up, then re-anchors. Dodgy AF.
