- Can I break 90? - EVERY SHOT IN 19 MINUTES
A round of golf at Northop golf course in North Wales. It's a par 72 hole course that was 6052 yards.
The green fee was £18 for a twilight rate in April 2022.
I'm James, a golfer with a dodgy swing now playing off an 14 handicap. I had taken 3 golf lessons to improve my swing on the day of play.
This day I carded my best ever score on an 18-hole par 72 course.
I'm looking to continuously 90 after taking some golf lessons. Even if I don't shoot a good score I always enjoy strolling around the fairways of North Wales, UK :-)

This is simply the best golf channel on TH-cam. Thank you for taking all of us on your journey. Much respect from Spokane Washington.
Your game is improving so so quick I genuinely can’t believe it. Fantastic progress. You should be very proud of yourself ❤️
At this point it's the putting with a glove holding him back lol.
Always glad to see a new video :)
No pictures on the scorecard but there is a 20 minute TH-cam video… well played chap! 👏
Is this the same man that only one year ago was a Handicap 27? your short game has really improved and your getting so much better at course management. Congratulations on a great round James
Great round! You have really improved. You might be ready for the European tour soon!
You are such an inspiration! Love the videos
I love this channel. I love to read the comments and it's great to see so much-needed positivity. Tired of always seeing such negative things everywhere else. Keep it up James, its great fun to watch and follow your progress!!!
Cheers Charles, I wasn't expecting a good score as the wind was up but I'll definitely take it! Thanks for watching :-)
thats a very good front9, now over for the back, nice work James 🙂
Well played James. You are really improving. Really enjoy Your videos. Greetings from Sweden.
Love the “thumb’s up” - so distinctive!!
Great round Man. Hope there are many many more to come.
Great round James! Chipping and putting made the day. That's got to feel good!
I’m a Northop member and believe me that’s a damn good score you had! 😄 the course is improving a lot and quickly so it will be much better when you return 👍🏼 well done
Cheers Pete, I like the flow of both 9s at your course. Plus there's no overly long par 4s which helps the scorecard ticking over! Thanks for watching :-)
Congratulations on that round. Your doing awesome. Keep up the good work.
Great round James! Another wonderful course. Really enjoy seeing your improvement and how a double bogey is not a round breaker.
Awesome round James, driving is really coming on strong. You’re playing some really smart golf
Very well played, and a nice video as always. Thanks for sharing.
You’ve come quite a long way. Impressive improvement in your game. Keep it up.
Another great round pal. Your short game is brilliant, keep it up. Love watching!🏌️🏌️👍👍👍
Mr. James, thank you for the video. Fantastic round, the trees are beautiful on that course even if they got in your way a couple of times. You absolutely smoked your drive on #9, cheers.
Great to watch the progress, keep it in play and keep the bad shots not too bad. Well done.
Amazing again James! You are consistently drawing the ball, have massive improvement in iron control and your putting is very solid. Keep it up!
Congratulations on a solid round! Amazing what making so many pars can do!
Excellent round James. You are improving so much. Played really well mate. Love watching your progress, and your improvement. Well done again James. Love watching your videos,actually look forward now for the next one.
Cheers Chris, everything is moving in the right direction! :-)
Really enjoyed that, had to wait all weekend to get a chance to view, couldn’t wait and wasn’t disappointed
Great round well done
Just to echo everyone else here…amazing. Your improvement is unbelievable. At this rate you may have to eventually change your channel’s name to “Close to a Perfect Golfer.”
Well done matey! impressed with your short game!
Great round James, you approaches there were brilliant. 👌🏼👌🏼
Excellent round, James. Well played.
Well played, Sir!
Such a solid short game.
Truely deserved that score.
Well done James superb round. Plenty of GIR! Love to see it.
Great round of golf, I’m following your impressive improvement with every video. I’ve used my 5 wood from the fairway and rough more times now because of your vids. Many thanks.
Very pretty course and a super round - well done!
Holy crap, wadda score and wadda round!!! Thanks for the amazing content!
Great game well played. Those bloody doubles & the 3 putts drive u insane!!!
Excellent round, enjoying your videos
Awesome score sir. Love the vlogs!
Excellent round James!
Great round here James… the short game is looking GOOOOOD!!!
Great round. Can really see the improvements every week. So many 8-10 ft birdie putts as well so could have been even better. The main thing is you are still smiling a d still loving it so keep it going. I'm predicting a sub 80 before the end of the season 👏👏👏⛳🏌️♂️👍
Love watching all the videos James
Great one! Keep going.
Brilliant score on a windy day, short game very good, you putted pretty well on less than perfect greens, well done, looking forward to your next course video. Cheers.
Congrats!!!
well played James thanks for the vidio
Great round James!
Enjoy your videos. Congrats on your score!
Well done - great front nine
Fantastic round 👏🏽
Well done James you have come on so quick can't believe you are off 14 already :)
Gave myself a headache earlier doing shot tracer for 3 holes. Gonna have to work my way up to 18.
Great round. Your short game is definitely your strength. At this rate, you'll be breaking 80 in no time.
Your games coming on leaps and bounds. Keep up the good work.
Well played!
Great playing.
Quality short game and putting from long distance
I trust no pheasants were harmed during the filming of this round. :) Congratulations on going well below 90 on this round. Some of those approach shots were fantastic!
Cheers mate, I was very happy with the iron play overall. I have to try and eradicate the fat/thin shots as they cost a few shots on this round. Thanks for watching :-0
I would be really really happy with that score. I am heading out soon for a game, let’s see what I will do ! Keep the videos coming ! From 🇨🇦
I was waiting 13 holes for the "Happy Days", well done! Love it.
Really good round mate. Well done
Short game unreal today! Well done
Congratulations on a great round.
Great round James. Very solid indeed. No golf for me ( 2 rounds planned) due to COVID. On the mend now though. Good luck next week loving the weekly round and the excellent golf you are playing.
Cheers Mark, rest up mate and you'll be back out there in no time at all! Thanks for watching :-)
You played some brilliant golf James, great to watch! I think you mentioned your course management has improved too, absolutely agree. I should maybe take heed and do the same 🙈
I did some laughing at you chasing away the pheasant 🤣🤣
Keep the videos coming pal, great content 👍
beautiful round congratulations
Awesome James.
Well played, great round. You should pop down the road to mile end golf club in oswestry. Nice relaxed course with some great holes
Great job!
been a pleasure watching your incredible improvement - i found your chipping and long putting have always been a real strength. What else have you worked on to become this much better than the early days?
From the early days I should have taken lessons much sooner. My grip, stance, alignment and backswing were very poor (not that they are perfect now). I dropped 10 strokes off the hcp in only 6 weeks! lol Thanks for watching
The creek shot on #16 with the ball below your feet. What a great shot and save there
hole 9 .. 256 yard drive... the best i've seen ... glad to see how well you struck that one .. i've seen too many at 180 or so ...
Nice round James!!!!!
Great solid round Again
Well done James
You play very smart! I’m about the same level as you. I hit longer, but do more silly shots😆 I think I try too hard to get greens in regulation every time. Very fun and inspiring to see your videos. Keep up the good work!
Excellent golf!
Brilliant mate am chuffed for you that was a fantastic round. I'm headed to Angelssey at the end of May. Where do you recommend I go for a knock?! Thanks for the upload as always. See you next week.
It’s a pleasure to watch you play, and see how much you are improving!! How often do you play?
Twice a week usually, one round on a 9 hole course and another on a full 18 hole course. I'm not a member anywhere and play as a visitor so that's why the courses change so much in the vids. Thanks for watching :-)
Well done dude! Approach play was the best I've seen it. Have you changed your distances for your irons/hybrids or do you think the warmer air is helping? Cos I always thought you were short too often (been watching for a few months). Hope you've been winning a lots of comps as your handicap has come down! And did I see a 280 yard drive in there!?
CRUSHED IT!! 🤜🤛
Great round 👍👍
Nice round! Looks like you are working on your short game.
Amazing how slowly your pro trace line travels on the way down for your shots. Hangtime seems to go on for ever compared to others.
Great shooting James.Your game is improving leaps and bounds.Some drive you hit down the 3rd 278 yards,you been working out?👍.
Cheers, it was a dogleg and the corner was cut from an elevated tee. I did flush it but still was very surprised to be so far past the fairway bunker! Thanks for watching
Inspirational.
haha I have to do that all the time when in Cape Town, make sure the geese are out the way in case i top a driver! Great round. I must get up to North Wales for a game!
Great round mate. That drive over 250 too! Is that a first as well? Well done 👍
Nice day out. Nice course. Considering you didn't really can any putts, good score. Scores will automatically drop when you get rid of the OTT movement and distance will increase.
Cheers Roger, always lots to improve on with golf that's why we love it! Thanks for watching
Nice one mate, great round!
Also quick question, how come you lay your putter down near the flag sometimes on the green?
Great round
This stuff is addictive!
Well played. You've got a great short game. You'll be breaking 80 in no time
Very nice round.
Great round, really good golf….
Great round! How many days do you play in a week?
It's the hand above the eyes looking for the ball , and then the thumbs up 😅🤣😂
Congrats mate! You’re quite good at judging your distance on long putts, is there a method you learned? Or all just feel?
Cheers Haddon, I pace out all my long putts and have the ft distance in my head while I go through my routine. This helps so much with judging the pace. I try to have a slower but longer backswing with all the lag putts as this works better for me. Thanks for watching :-)
Congrats on a great round of golf! If not for those 3 wayward putts you would have had your 82 goal already. Your short game is very good but what impresses me is the way you can change the distances on your 4 hybrid from 160 to 190, not an easy thing to do. I'm just curious, what driver and 4 hybrid are those, I cant recognize them in the vids?
Cheers Tony, all my clubs are listed here:
th-cam.com/video/2eydw1406WM/w-d-xo.html
The 4 hybrid is my favourite club in the bag and I worked a bit on the range to get the different yardage shots. Thanks for watching :-)
👍👍👍 nice round 🏌♂
