@@life1153 thank you😀

@@8john8notts8 hey John, thanks for the kind words mate. Will be doing more in future at some beautiful courses in South Africa so hopefully you'll enjoy those too 👍

Decent guess man. They are Mizuno JPX 923 Tours

They were all 'that' sporty kid at school 🤣

Ah man, most have said that actually but it's the TSR3. I think the trees behind the tee made the sound a little more Smoke'y'

Loads of guys have said Ping actually, think it's because of the trees behind. Thanks for the guess mate, it's the TSR3

Which one?

I think it’s because of the trees around the back of the tee. It’s the TSR3 👍

🤣

In all honesty when I did my research DJI just didn't seem to come up. Not sure how I missed them. Looking at review sites, I'd say that Rode often come up on top anyway so I'm happy I've chosen these ones. The final thing is that Rick Shiels uses them so that was the kicker for me

Really agree with you on this one. The only positive that came from it was likely the fact that I don't have a lot of quit, which is a good thing 🤣 Also a wake up call that my wrist angles were just not cutting it. Not 'never again', but pretty close to 👍

That's one way to look at it 🤣👊

Thanks mate really appreciate that 🙌

Love the honesty Alastair 👊 I'm workin on it 🤣

Thank you bud, lots of work to do but a good base to build from 👍

Brave or stupid, not sure which😂 Arabella was unreal and super keen to play Pearl Valley Next

Thank you bro, really appreciate that 🙏🙏

Thanks very much! At the moment Im using 'shot tracer app'. It works on android and Apple phones as well as my macbook pro. Not sure about other laptops. Hope that helps 👍

It was unreal Zac👍 will definitely be going back to hopefully see more wildlife. Holes are often closed off if there's a lion kill on a Fairway for example so lots more to see

Hi John, thanks very much mate, appreciate that 👍 I'm normally around 270 on the course. Keep wondering if id get more out of a newer driver as mine is the Titleist 915D3🤷

It's Top Golf in Watford mate, just outside of London

Thank you bro🙏🙏🙏

Thanks mate really appreciate that. I will definitely do more of these. Got trips back to South Africa this year planned with some very scenic courses so will definitely do a few there

This is an interesting one. If you look at my swing from the side, I get narrow, meaning it makes it really hard to then release the club head at the ball. What you're seeing makes sense 👍👍

Nice one mate, I'll give that a go👌👌

Yes indeed👌👌

Yup indeed, a case of me probably not getting out of my own way🤣 it was really great actually, and we only played 3 courses of which only 1 was in the top 10. Will definitely be going back 👌

Just off 🤣

Thanks bud, appreciate that 🙏 haha, maybe in 10 years they will bed in nicely 🤣🤣 sounds good man👍👍

Hi Nick, as a new creator this type of comment is pretty special mate. Really appreciate it🙏 was definitely a tough day haha. Pretty sharp learning curve that changing a swing you've had for 22 years isn't going to happen in 6 months 🤣

It's tough man 😂

Thanks for the feedback mate. Just for some context, at the start of the summer (and my filming) I started working with a coach for the first time and we stripped back my swing quite drastically and started making changes. So you are spot on with your assessment. My plan is that as the channel progresses, so the swing will to. It will also need to as some very cool guests planned coming up 🤣

Yeah this was a real tough one tbh. I think I'd just started the swing changes so confidence was low. Yours sound like good choices. I'll do it again at some point, and may put in a 48 degree instead of 56

Will defo take you up on that bud, been wanting to play there for a long time 🏌️🏌️

@@thespringbokgolfer yeah do it, see you soon then ✌🏻

Soooo encouraged by your first hole. Here a golfer I can sympathise with!!

Thank you Nic, very much appreciated 👍👍

haha, I'm here for you man!!

Thank you bud, really appreciate that 👍 lots in the tank for you guys 👌

Hi Graham, thanks for the comment. Definitely does take some getting used to. Really appreciate the offer, I'm only down the road at Hadden Hill so not far. Will give you a shout👍 let me know where's best to get in touch

I left originally on gap year and then stayed until now (10 years ish) as I got work and just got a bit stuck really. I definitely wouldn't say it's a collapsing society. Lots of SA is just so beautiful and very cheap if travelling with pounds euros etc. It is more dangerous than for eg the UK but it's just requires a little more Street smarts. I am hoping to spend more time in Cape Town filming as the channel grows. If you love golf, it's a paradise 👍

Hi Chris, thanks for the input. Ya at the time didn't even have a mic but now onto a rode shotgun mic and even that's not to my liking so will end up going the lapel route I think. Definitely got a unique lane which will become more apparent in time. Thanks very much for the feedback 👍👍

Chris is one of the best greenkeepers around. Surfaces are always top draw. This sort of course would normally be around £35 - £50 a round. Top courses anywhere from £85 to £350

​@@thespringbokgolfer That's remarkable; here in California a sub-par muni (pun intended) would be around $75 - $90 (£70 - £83) and a course with greens of this caliber would probably be significantly more. Keep up the good work, I quite enjoyed this video. My only suggestion would be to maybe get a windscreen to stick over the microphone on the camera.

@@HerrMez wow that's really pricey. I've just been home to South Africa and filmed at some really Stellar courses. With the exchange rate it was about £50 a round, so the exchange rate is where it's at 🤣 thanks very much for the feedback, have the rode shotgun mic with a deadcat on now but will soon move to the rode lapel mics 👍

Hey bud thanks for the comment, really appreciate the support. Lots of content on the way for you👍

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m actually curious as to why you think your opinion matters?

@@jaysimms2648. Where did I say my opinion mattered. I didn’t but the creator asked for opinions, how can he create a product that works in the space without honest reactions. The film quality was great but the sound needs a lot of work. He’s not a great golfer so adding a partner may make the product more enjoyable. Watching a guy play bogie golf on his own is probably not going to work imo.but jay if your feelings got hurt I guess we’re both going to have to live with that❤️

Hey Mark thanks for the feedback, appreciate the points made. Lots of work done on the swing for the last 6 months and still going so hope to bring you back in at some point. All the best mate

@@thespringbokgolfer The swing is a never ending process. Iam 63 and my exact is 3.5 and I still have lessons. Work hard.

@@thespringbokgolferI wouldn’t take his opinion to heart. I think this content targets a lot of people as you’re a decent golfer and people enjoy watching relatable golf.

😂 I'm just here for comic relief
