Watching Liam take the shot over water, dunk the ball and not give a damn is what I think life should be all about. Great video at another stunning course!
Don’t think you’ll ever top this. Scenery, course, friendship and finishing just before midnight! If anytime I need a boost I’ll watch this again and again.
God, I love this series! What a beautiful place. Last time I saw Northern Scotland was from the sea, launching 5 inchers into the gun range from the mighty warship USS Bainbridge. I have been longing to return to launch little white golf balls since...
Spectacular views on this links course I really love the hidden gems series. Thanks for allowing us to travel along with you, Mr. Barlow, Joe and Simon on this adventure.
Joe great camera work! Love it when you cheer for Mr. Barlow💪💪💪💪💪💪who wouldn't want to play a round withLiam the Doctor,Simon and Joe filming it!!!!! What an ending well done Mr. Barlow!
I've seen some great looking courses on youtube and personally but I have never seen a course this beautiful. The backdrops and scenery are almost divine.
love how passionate you are about hidden gems Liam it really makes these videos more special! beautiful golf! another thing to note thank god all these gems got recovered I could see why you was so upset. Absolutely buzzing for you the team and all us Golfmates
Brilliant video yet again Golf Mates! Joe's laugh at Barlows duff on the 18th had me in stitches! 🤣🤣🤣 absolute gold! 👌🏻 i laugh harder everytime i rewind it 🤣
Superb video chaps, absolutely love the hidden gem series. Simon Payne has been a brilliant addition, a great golfer and all round good bloke. Can’t wait to see the rest of the series and see who comes out on top! Love the enthusiasm most of all and the love of what you do.
I played Kingsbarns a few years ago, it was the best course I have ever played but I needed to take out a mortgage to pay the green fees... What you are showing in this hidden gems series (and your other videos) is that you can play the most amazing golf courses at a reasonable price which is surely what us average golfers all want !! You three amigos are absolute legends, I watch all your videos and just smile to my phone screen !! Don't stop being who you are liam it really is infectious 👊
Durness is a wonderful course and was almost deserted when I played it. The filming is fantastic and the drone shots were incredible. You absolutely did the course justice.
Best golf channel on y-tube. Thanks guys and all the team...and a special thanks to Mizuno for helping the team of normal golfers produce great content for us everyday golfers👏👏👏
Best video ever, can’t believe you are playing at 11:30 at night. I come from Scotland, done a bit of the NC500, I am so proud and grateful you have showcased my country in this way. Lifelong memories being made by you guys.
Top class from Joe on the camera.. Young fella deserves all the praise in the world.. Quality from start to finish... What a course and what a series so far... Nine holes of fine beauty in a nut shell.. This is what golf is all about... Friends, laughter and fun... Best golf channel by far on TH-cam... Well done to all involved Liam 👌⛳
OMG Those views gave me a chill down my spine, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up, SIMPLY STUNNING. What an absolute pleasure to watch.... Ohhh the golf too ⛳️
For all the golf courses in America, nothing can beat the links golf in Scotland, home of golf. Loving the banter on this trip and sure a few headaches from the whiskey.
I'l tell you what, when your stuck indoors suffering with a bout of covid feeling miserable this is just what you need to bring you back and put a smile on your face, Simon is allways posetive and that,s infectious, brilliant content Liam fair play to you for getting it recovered, good work fellas
These courses highlight the true history of golf and demonstrate how courses were originally designed back in the times of Auld Tom Morris. Rugged rough, undulating greens, sea breeze and bunkers. Such a gem to have found these and bring an awareness to other golfers.
Live in Scotland and I’ve played golf all over Europe,the U S and Canada. But I’m ashamed to say I’ve neglected the exceptional courses all over Scotland. Need to rectify this especially after watching this series. Fantastic Hidden Gems series 👏🏻👏🏻
You 3 are a credit to Golf and Golf is proud you chose it….. that course should be on wheels and moved around it’s that spectacular, I’ve just got out of hospital and that’s giving me an incentive to play there next year with my 2 son’s, Joe put in for Cameraman of the Year…. Be a cert 👍🏻. Cheers men 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻⛳️🏌🏼
What. A. Course!!!!!!!!!! Seriously that was mouth-wateringly good. Big shout out to Simon - what a proper golfmate he is. Always ready with the compliments and good spirited banter.
I'm two minutes in and looking at drone footage (first class - well done indeed) and this looks like a phenomenal course. Intro' over now so, on to the match.
Stunning setting, bloody brilliant camera/drone work, some cracking golf and 3 top blokes. Spot on as usual. Hidden Gems is literally the best series on TH-cam
The camera work is very well done.The scenery is enough to cause a sudden attack of sphincter-itis on the 18th tee? What fun to watch the three of you go at this course!!
This series is going to help wile away the winter months. Scenery is beyond description, golf varies from sublime to the hysterical, courses are a credit to the greenkeepers battling with the elements, and Simon’s course management comments are a lesson to us all. All that said, when Mr Barlow hit his tee shot at the last i nearly fell out the chair laughing, sporting moment of the year for me.
OMG what a fantastic course . I had a lump in my throat all the way through the video until Mr Barlow hit his tee shot on the last hole . 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 then I had tears of laughter. Thank you so much for putting me through every emotion possible watching all your videos please keep them coming gentlemen ❤️
What a stunningly beautiful golf course! The view on the last hole is amazing! Every single hole is beautifully set on the course! This the way a golf course should be! For only being 4800 yards, it is a true test for any golfer! The course owners need to have a professional photographer come out and take pictures of each hole and put out a calender to help publicize the course! I would love to have one sent to me here in the US! LIAM...you need to put together a set of photographs, and put out a book showing all of these "Hidden Gems!" Imagine the popularity these courses would get...and it would help these courses financially! Golf Mates from all over the world would purchase the book!
Liam, as a Scotsman I'd like to thank you for making the effort to show off these "Hidden Gems" around the rugged shores of the north. That par 5 is the only eagle I've ever had , did the same as you but was fortunate to hit the pin and sit on the lip for a tap in. The course was as busy that day too, Keep up the good work. Scott
Played it yesterday as part of the North Winter Golf Alliance. Unbelievably for late October conditions were similar to what you had. Absolutely a must play course.
Enjoying every minute of Scotland Hidden Gems. Not at all envious, honest! You were blessed with fabulous weather and really liked Mr. Payne's contribution. Now, how about "Ireland Hidden Gems" featuring OMP and Mr. Payne, with appearences from "Heavy" "EBay" and "YMJ" ? Oh, and a huge thumbs un to camera/drone work
Great to see you guys up here to my part of the world, playing golf. There are so many great courses up here in the North, spoiled for choice. Durness is fantastic ! The drive up West around the coast is also superb. Great videos 👏
Guys the course looks amazing yet again. But for me the best thing about these hidden gems are the love and gd times u all have had. Thank you for making these videos.
BEAU-TI-FUL!!!! Absolutely stunning looking golf course. Looks like it was designed around the natural landscape. Hitting the like button is not enough so a massive 👍👍👍👋
Watching Liam take the shot over water, dunk the ball and not give a damn is what I think life should be all about. Great video at another stunning course!
glad you enjoyed the video mate
Brilliant. Can't help but laugh at Liam when he creases up at Mr B's scuff shots. Had me in tears. What a setting too.

Mr Paynes 2nd to the green on second hole was PURE

Probably my favourite ever Golf Mates video! What a place! Something magical about evening/night golf but especially at Durness
An absolute stunner. Scotland is a goldmine waiting to be discovered!
Just watched this again for about the tenth time. And that says it all. Quality.
Loved this place
