This is where I got married! Going to be playing here tomorrow, thanks for making this video. I learned a few things to look out for when I'm playing there! Thank you! haha.
@@GenevieveLingGolf Could've gone better. I think my endurance has been shot. I played the front 9 almost par, 3 bogeys. The back 9 was horrendous, basically a double bogey buffet! Haha!
I have played Tustin ranch several times…remember checking out new homes on the course 20 years ago that were about 200k-300k is all. First place I saw range ball pyramids.
I always enjoy some of the wisdom you provide. Always gets me in a better mindset when I go play golf. "We cant control the outcome, all we can do is try to hit our best shot"
Definitely testosterone and alcohol. Affects and sabotage my game. So i tend to go play amongst seniors. Who break 80 while I'm a 20 handicap first year golfer. Well i seem to play better as they don't drink or emit too much testosterone so I play calm and controlled. Weird i know, but the past few rounds I've been alternating my time at the course with my boys and random seniors who been playing for 20 plus years and are 12 handicap. Fun!!
@QMS... I noticed a couple of Filipinas competing against Gen in the WAPT. One was from Parañaque, MM... I've been there! I'm married for 35 years to a native of Samar, so I rooted for Gen and the two Pinay. All the best, Kabayan. Btw, in case you haven't guessed, my screen name was bestowed upon me by ang asawa ko. 🇵🇭
@@GenevieveLingGolf oddly, my Mom and sister live near Laguna Beach which is very close to Irvine and Tustin. Much better Asian food than in Austin. Try Tang 190 in Irvine if you get a chance. Best of luck!!
Great lessons to learn from the challenges on that course. It was also great to see and hear you talking with others as you play a round. Thanks for sharing this vlog Gen.
i so love your swing... it is a work of art. Yes Cali courses have challenges... Do you ever play the Red Tees.. i would be curious to see that.... and then white tees.... i'd like to see you play Bay Area courses too.. i love it... be realistic,,, great tips
Thank you! And yes I do when I play a course more than once but normally for the first time, I’ll play one of the longer tees because it’s more representative of the distances we play on tour 😊
@@GenevieveLingGolf Gen, I would shorten your full swing, point the club to the sky...Go with a short cut like John ram....That's how you shoot 65s....
Hopefully, you had a good time at BSU (Go Bronco's) I had the opportunity to play with you and a couple of the other gals on the golf team a few years back for a few holes at Falconcrest. You impressed me so much on your approach to this game. Because of you I now marshall for the LPGA (western US) Mediheal back in June, just back from Symetra near Cour d' alene. I am like a little kid at Disneyland at these tournaments. Thank you. What I have seen with your golf game. And what I have seen at these LPGA events, you are going to fit right in. Good luck I
Need to try to play with members of these courses in SoCal to offset high green fees… Tustin Ranch was my home course back in my amateur HS playing days! Hasn’t changed in 20 years. 😆
That’s why I haven’t been back to Tustin Ranch since. Hah. Highly suggest Arroyo Trabuco in Mission Viejo if you’re staying in OC. The member guest fees during the weekdays are much more affordable and the course has been playing well recently.
This is another great video on more than just golf. There is a manner in which you approach golf that makes a lot of sense which i now customized that has helped in my game. Good luck in the qualifiers.
I played here for the first time a few weeks ago. It had a pretty fun layout. Definitely interesting and informative seeing how you play each hole versus how I approached them as a 12 handicap. I hope you enjoyed SoCal.
Yeah fun layout for sure, just wish the greens were a little better but I think it’s hard to maintain them during this time.. at least it’s pretty to look at 🤷🏻♀️😄
Gen... If you haven't already done so (and if you're still there), take a ride down to LaJolla and check out Torrey Pines. I've never played it, but some rather famous folks have. My bride worked at Scripps in LaJolla for 10 years. And if you make it down there... Check out the sea lions too! Take the PCH!
Good to see you smiling and happy again, last time you seemed a little down on yourself. Go Broncos!! Yes, more geese, and even more poop on courses here.
Noticed on the 5th hole par 4 340 yards you still hit driver, do you consider hitting something shorter off the tee on these shorter par 4s? If so, what would make you go with a shorter club? Tight landing spots? Avoid a particular hazard?…. Also, looked like you missed several puts to the right. Did you self assess whether that was mechanics or just reading the breaks? Nice round though, I love your swing, very efficient.
Apa Khabar fellow Malaysian. Welcome to Orange County. Playing Tijeras Creek Wednesday September 1 . You and your friend available? Makan Malaysian afterwards.
Hello, gen I Played right in front of you a few weeks ago. I wanted to come up to you but I was star-struck. I had many chances but I FAILED. My last chance was in the parking lot but again I FAIlED. I dreamed of one day meeting you and then when the opportunity came I choke.
@@GenevieveLingGolf The funny thing is I was watching one of your videos that day and dreaming of playing with you and being next to you lol Not knowing you are on the Golf Course right behind me, how funny. We made eye contact many times on the course while crossing each other. I felt as you notice me, but didn't know of me. From a distance, most people think I'm Tiger Woods and I swing like him, but I am far from being or looking like Tiger Woods lol. Don't mean to sound weird just expressing myself to someone I consider an Angel with a Golf Club in her hands.
Some use a stop light rule for approach shots … Red = danger - play safe Yellow = risk/reward 50/50 Green light = go for it! Do you? Also, do you usually play for an uphill putt? (and avoid leaving it above the hole). Just curious.
Wife n I are huge fans of your vids and OMG we can’t believe you’re playing in Tustin! Man we’d love to play a round with you! Haha. Well enjoy your time in SoCal and keep grindin! Keep up the great work and we’re serious about playing a round with you! Lol.
@@GenevieveLingGolf yeah I tried it, not für me! But the "pencil grip" has been really good for me for anything within 10 feet. Stops me from closing the face down with my right hand.
@@GenevieveLingGolf Chardonnay and eagle vines are right next to each other in Napa, CA. Rancho Solano and paradise valley in Farfield, CA. There’s Corica park that’s a links style course in Alameda, CA I’m sure you know about TPC Harding park in SF. Are you gonna be visiting the Bay Area?
Lived in Imperial Beach, Ca for 10 years. Four blocks from the Pacific. Never needed air-conditioning. Just opened the windows facing the ocean and let the trade winds do the rest. It was heavenly.
Not trying to criticize your game at all, you’re an excellent golfer. But maybe try keeping your lead arm connected a bit longer and rotate. You seem pull arms down, making it more of an “armsy” swing (which is why you’re not hitting as far as you should). If I’m base here you let me know, but I know you have more distance in the tank than you think.
Keep trying :). If you look at the LPGA championship scoring averages, it seems an average score under 70 or so earns a good living. Assuming a 2-3 few bogies per round , that would mean 4-5 birdies a round …..sigh….
Got to make those mid-range putts from ten to twenty feet on a high frequency to make the LPGA Tour, unless one can get on par-5's in two, or at least get within a chip or short pitch in two on the par-fives. Good putting is not good enough. Even great putting may not be enough. Fantastic putting is the norm at the highest level. The direction of the putt is determined by the squareness of the putter face at the exact moment of impact. Since the golf hole is a little wider than two ball widths, some error in the squareness of the putter face at impact is allowed, although by not much. The longer the putt, the less error is allowed in putter face angle at impact. The amount of error allowed is given by the formula 10 divided by the distance of the putt. At 10 feet, 10 divided by 10 equals 1 degree of error is allowed. At 20 feet, 10 divided by 20 equals a half degree of error is allowed for the none-squareness of the putter face at impact. One degree to half-degree is a lot of error margin for the top putters. Top putters should either achieve perfectly squared putter face at impact, or at most no more than a tenth of a degree off from perfectly squared putter face at impact. There are many way to achieve less than a tenth degree off from square at impact. The starting point to becoming a fantastic long range putter is to return the leading edge of the putter head to the exact position of the putter head at setup.

Gen, you're a very good golfer. Did you notice that your golf partner made use of the foot wedge? Have fun out there.
The act of thinking about an aim point with the approach is a win irrespective of outcome. I do t always hit the mark but I have one 😊
Good playing. I love how on 8 you stepped on your friend's line... TWICE. Haha!!
HAHAHAHA she was jsut practicing it wasn’t her actual putt okay 😂😂😂😂
All I could think of seeing this was - what a vista on the first hole!
Oh my goodness! You’re on my home course! Hope you enjoyed!!
Loved the confidence you show ... in yourself.... and in what most of us may get out of it 😉 Go Gen 🙂
Thanks Frederic!! 😄😄
you are a great teacher
😄😄
I agree, more aggressive is good for you. You chipping and putting is very good. I first saw you on golf sidekick. Your short game is solid.

I believe those legs could carry her to Portland if she so chose.

It was! 😊
Power off the tee comes from your toes. If you aren’t feeling it from your toes up, you ain’t hitting it hard. Sometimes you want this.
Good content Gen! Thanks!

i grew up in Dove Canyon Course in Trabuco Canyon. Its private, but i'm sure someone would take you. You should try to get on

How come u put shot tracer on anymore???
They just updated it to allow the new Apple computers to use them because they have a different chip so it hasn’t worked with my computer
Any chance of creating content with GM Golf / Good Good?
I will begin to review courses like this to be more strategic.
I'm never unhappy if I make 9 pars in a row. But I wouldn't know how that feels, I've never done it. hahaha
i once hit 9 greens in reg and shot like 41 or something on that 9. maybe i should lower my goals? new putter? hahaha. oh well.
Awesome, so consistent - can take so much away from this thanks.
Why no shot tracer anymore? Much prefer having that. Good luck.
For you no birdies is not good when you can get up and down from anywhere around a green. Good luck.
