Overhand Golf Channel I just putt with the pin out so I don’t have to worry about it hitting the pin and bouncing out. I wouldn’t want to be in a US open qualifier and have a putt to qualify, bounce out!😀
@@justinthomison8152 Who cares! As long as it's bigger than that tiny hole we always have to put into while golfing! Hell, I'll take a whole that's an inch bigger! 👍
I love this. Sometimes you just need to switch it up and have some fun. My chipping needs improvement and today we did 9 holes and only tries different chips were possible. Helped a lot and was fun to do.
this may actually be a decent mental approach for chipping onto the green. imagine the hole was this big. mind's eye kinda thing, maybe it'll take some of the pressure off...
First thing I was taught about chipping and long putts was to aim for a bin lid size around the hole. After a while its becomes second nature. I'm passed that stage now but it's useful when your first starting for sure
Great vid Rick, perfect introduction for young players who have never played before. Short yardage large holes lets get the kids playing, golf clubs should take a look 👀 at this as an idea.
Reminds me of the 8-inch cup tournaments they have around here. Occasionally throughout the summer some golf clubs will cut an 8-inch hole instead of the standard and then put the pin in really tricky places. Those are a lot of fun to play in.
Great concept and fun little video. At Stadium Golf Center (A driving range in San Diego) They have a dedicated short game practice area with oversized holes on the Green set aside for chipping because it gives you confidence and is a great drill to work on your chipping.
Golf is a hard and frustrating game and many ppl forget why the started to play in the first place. It’s all about having fun and I think something like this would be great for a family function.
Even though I never played golf always loved watching it. As a kid I'd use a cricket wicket for passing accuracy when I trained (football) however I'd see the bigger holes as a training aid of 90 yards and getting the ball into that area for accuracy.
playing golf games as a kid and whenever they had a large hole mode or cheat it was always fun as heck. cant imagine how cool it would be in person. id be trying all sorts of trick shots
My home course has foot golf holes, but they're usually off to the side or before the green. So, if we ever accidentally drop our 2nd shot in, it's an automatic hole in 1 (which has still yet to happen).
I actually think this is an absolute perfect idea for beginners and jr golfers...less stressful, easier, and more fun than 4 putting every hole when you first start out...anybody right at the beginning of starting their golf career could play this for like a year and develop their pitching, chipping, contact and basic lines/distance control of putting...
I’d like to see more courses like the Repton course at rudding Park at harrogate. Fun, challenging, great wedge practice and you could play it twice in an hour and half. Perfect for people who don’t finish work til 5/6 o’clock.
Hi Rick in Ireland there's pitch and put where you only use a pitching wedge and putter like you were saying in the video it's a smaller version of golf surprised it's not in england
We play with these type of cups once a year at the end of the season called the Greenkeeper’s Revenge tournament. They have obstacles on course and the hardest pin locations.
Fairmont Hot Springs, BC, Canada, has a 9-hole course called Creekside and it’s all par 3’s with large holes. Not that big but three-times the size or so.
Dear Rick, You’ve helped me storm my way through tournaments and all my friends who I play with watch you to Can you please do a putting tutorial that’s what me and many golfers are struggling with Thanks
Amazing idea this gives me. I'm staying on a Island that have only 2 "golf" courses. Way below sub-standard. The condition of the "greens" do not justify keeping to R&A specifications as to hole size. Proportionally one can calculate and draw a chart of guidance. Let's say Pebble beach/St'Andrew's standard greens as ultimate and a grass surface of 30mm length cut with brush-cutter. Having 5 hole sizes to choose from.
It will be interesting when you go play with regulation holes to see if this messed up your putting.. We used to play snooker then pool as snooker holes are smaller which made the pool table holes look and feel like bushel baskets.
Didn't Taylormade do this a couple years ago? They suggested bigger cups to get more people into the game because like you said. There's such a big jump from driving range to the golf course. I think something like this would be great for anyone new to the game, irrelevant of age or gender. The slowest part of many games of golf is the work on and around the green. These holes can only speed up the greenside experience. Get more people playing only grows the game.
That was awesome - but here is what i find super interesting. When you were just playing - and missed the green - you just chipped straight in from off the green no problem. But ---- when you tried to slam dunk it right in - you both missed a bunch bc in your mind the target becomes smaller. Sure - you were trying to put it right in versus bump and running it in - but still its funny to see how just your mental approach to the task changes things!
Hey Rick i was wondering what type of irons you where thinking i should get. I need irons that have a lot of forgiveness. I was looking at the callaway rogue x’s i don’t have that much money to spend so if you could help me that would be great(i mean by giving your opinion on which club)
The course I play at has a 9 hole par 3 course with holes that are slightly bigger than regulation. Partly to make up for the poor greens, but it's great for kids to learn on.
Adlingtons a great place to go for all ages and all skill levels. They also have a longer Per 3 course similar to the short course, again as a step between driving range & 'Real Golf'. The people who run Adlington are really friendly and the facilities are high quality. TBH playing the short par 3 is annoying when the bucket hole is between your ball & the pin, but getting children interested in golf is the price you pay. 🙂
What’s your lowest ever *GROSS* score?
18 over but couple of four and 3 putts so think this could help
60 on par 58 but otherwise 37 on 9 hole and 79 on 18
65 but it would be like 50 with these for 18
69, probably around 60
70 on a par 72
I'd love to be the first guy to 3 putt these greens.
Allow me to be the first to 4 putt
Allow me to be the first to 5 putt
lol. I am sure I could 3 putt them as well
Allow me to be the first to 15 putt
😂 funny
Fill it with sand or water and my score would be amazing.

Rick where's your manners, you forgot to ask flag in or out.
Jairo Arvizu it’s 2019 you can leave it in
LannyBoi still nice to ask tho. Some prefer it out.
@@AppleBottomJ good point
It was a joke
@@lannyboi4120 are you stupid, that was his point
I wish there was a course like this near where I live. It looks like a lot of fun.
You have to make a video with high handicap players also.
Btw it’s footbgolf your not actually supposed to play with clubs
Way to walk it in Rick, Kevin Na would be proud!
Reminds me of the 8-inch cup tournaments they have around here. Occasionally throughout the summer some golf clubs will cut an 8-inch hole instead of the standard and then put the pin in really tricky places. Those are a lot of fun to play in.
I think they should make bigger holes to help starting players. I totally agree with you that there should be in-between. Great vid
marc-etienne Boudreau w at the course I play at sometimes, they have two pins, one for beginners and one for intermei
This goes good with your other video playing golf with big balls
I’ll never forget playing a course like this with my grandfather and he was SO MAD that they had these
Fucken little bastards and their giant holes
Was a hoot watching you and Hannah play! Two great and fun personalities having fun!
Pretty impressive was the wear mark on Hannah's wedge.
Love these random videos Rick does. Not every one about a golf swing
I'd say Rick and Hannah had more fun playing this course than they would ever have playing a regular course.
Great concept and fun little video. At Stadium Golf Center (A driving range in San Diego) They have a dedicated short game practice area with oversized holes on the Green set aside for chipping because it gives you confidence and is a great drill to work on your chipping.

Hey Rick! I would love if you did a review of the new Mizuno tour golf balls, I'm very curious what you think!
8:22 play at .25 speed you wont regret it
Dude wtf
That’s a lil sus
wtf man
Ok bud
The thing is i do regret it.
Can we please see a part 2 of this?? I would love to see you guys try that again.
4:40 that's what she said
Look at Rick doing his best Kevin Na “quick walk”
More Hannah relates content svp!!
4.25" has always seemed like a cruel joke; esp. on the bumpy patches my course calls greens, lol. btw, more vlogs with Hannah, please!

Great idea for beginners . Stop the frustration learning the game.
Went to the comment section really expecting a lot of simp comments for Hannah but I was pleasantly surprised so well done by this community lmao
In the US that gap you speak of already exists: Top Golf
Great video! 🙌🏼
This is where I play everyweek, but on the graduate course!
I do. I am only starting so I am on the academy
The greens are very fast
@@JIMMYCUMBERLAND you should try graduate, its not hard abit fun, only 2 long holes around 250ish!
Calzah CGD I will try it tomorrow!
Even though I never played golf always loved watching it. As a kid I'd use a cricket wicket for passing accuracy when I trained (football) however I'd see the bigger holes as a training aid of 90 yards and getting the ball into that area for accuracy.
I've played against some huge holes. Usually, it was during match play and I'm having to putt a 1' er.
Looked fun! Nice vid Rick & Hannah!
When she says “huge, really big!” My adolescences kicked in 😅.
You both are great, Hannah ;you could've killed it!!!
1:11 “ the hole is massive” “huge, really big” That’s what she said
I’m late to the party, Finchy has his hole in one now
playing golf games as a kid and whenever they had a large hole mode or cheat it was always fun as heck. cant imagine how cool it would be in person. id be trying all sorts of trick shots
Why is this an actual course?
Edit: I'm stupid it's for soccer golf
King Ninja no you communist, it’s soccer golf
Muffin Man ^
@King Ninja I'm pretty sure you don't throw footballs into the holes... pretty sure you kick soccerballs into them..
Casey Michel im pretty sure its called football because you use your foot, not your hand. Footgolf, you use you foot
My home course has foot golf holes, but they're usually off to the side or before the green. So, if we ever accidentally drop our 2nd shot in, it's an automatic hole in 1 (which has still yet to happen).
Hey Rick I think you have one of the best swings I’ve ever seen.
Bro, he picks it up with his hands, that’s not good
would love to see another golf bidder vid! keep up the good work!
Coming very soon!!!!
This is so dope! I'd like to see how I'd do on a course like this.

Would Finchy finally get an ace place this way?
I love par 3 as practice for my short play. Me and my mate always finish a round of 18 with 9 holes par 3 and do matchplay.
Lol That was the softest I’ve ever heard someone say, “Go hard or go home”. 0:31
I’d like to see more courses like the Repton course at rudding Park at harrogate. Fun, challenging, great wedge practice and you could play it twice in an hour and half. Perfect for people who don’t finish work til 5/6 o’clock.
2:30 you just throw her ball on the ground
Vitun Jones He’s a wanker
Great Channel Rick always awesome content thanks for the feed!
8:02 - final hole who!? 😂😂
Hannah
She seems very reserved sometimes, so it is really nice to see her get excited about some of those chip shots.
If these holes were in Florida, they'd make great homes for snakes.
Australia would be the same mate. Every hole would be full of balls with a big brown snake on top
Local councils used to bridge the gap a bit by running "pitch n putts", but you don't really see many now. This looks like a fun medium, as you said 🤘
Is it just me or is there a connection between the two ❤️💛
Hi Rick in Ireland there's pitch and put where you only use a pitching wedge and putter like you were saying in the video it's a smaller version of golf surprised it's not in england
