- ASHBURNHAM GOLF CLUB
We are on a South Wales tour and our first stop is the stunning Ashburnham Golf Club.
Myself (Dan Hendriksen) and Brother Paul Hendriksen will be taking the fans favourite Lester Barnes and the big hitting Will Farley.
One of the classic Welsh links courses which celebrated it centenary in 1994. The Club has hosted a long line of important professional and amateur tournaments including the British Home International Team Championships on three occasions, Welsh Amateur Championship on twelve occasions along with more recently the 2015 Welsh Open Stroke Play Championship and was a qualifying venue for the 2014 Seniors Open Championship.
The famous Harry Vardon said: "This is the course I like best in Wales". His sentiments have been endorsed by more modern professionals. Three Ryder Cup Captains have won professional tournaments at Ashburnham, Dai Rees in the PGA Championship in 1959, Bernard Gallagher won his first tournament in the 1969 Schweppes Championship and it was here that Sam Torrance also gained his first title, the 1976 Martini.
Overlooking Carmarthen Bay, the course has it first two and final three holes near the clubhouse. Holes three to eight strike out, parallel to the sea, straight into the prevailing wind and holes nine to fifteen run back with the prevailing wind directly behind.
A real test off the back tees the course becomes a lot tamer off the general play tees offering a challenge to all levels of golfer especially in a slight wind. Ashburnham is a pure links experience.

Dan. Absolutely superb. I can imagine seeing that video being played on the bbc or sky as they build up to live coverage etc. You are knocking these videos out of the park. Keep it up!
Love Ashburnham. Proper old club, super course and a great Welsh Welcome
Brilliant course and course management . wow what a workshop for club fitting .
Nice film and a great way to say thanks to the club for facilitating your visit. 👍🏻
Pure class this channel... Lovely little put together that really enjoyed it, wouldn't mind seeing more of these little vlogs dan 💪
Interesting to get an insight into the club, course and the personalities behind the scenes that make it all work. Delighted to hear that Ashburnham are making a real effort to impact the environment in a positive way. Like this style of video a lot, keep them coming.
Lucky enough to play Ashburnham last year. Absolute gem. Scariest practice putting green ever.
Great footage, especially the chats with the guys from the club.
This is a great little vid - nice to include the chats with the people involved. Keep it up!!
For what it’s worth I loved that Dan! Always enjoy the history and information you bring to the places you visit. Especially for those of us who will likely never get across the pond to play those amazing courses, it’s nice to feel like we’ve been there in a small way. 👍🏻
Goodness wouldn’t it be great to play there! Watched your Ashburnham Vlogs & now this overview & yes it’s a thumbs up 👍 from me!
You have quickly become my favorite channel on TH-cam. The banter between all of y'all makes me laugh. The play is great to watch as well. But living in the U.S. and not playing a ton of courses in my life, seeing how beautiful these courses are is amazing.
all kidding aside, the quality of this video is stunning. one of the best I've ever seen of the type. congratulations.
A good addition & insight to the course vlogs. Be nice to see one of these for each one you do…if time allows obvs
Lost count of the number of times I've played this course and I still find something new every round. Great place to play.
Enjoyed the video, and the insight into the course, and club. Agree with you guys on the nature aspect, part of why I love being on a golf course.
Lovely. Ideo
So much looking forward totravel again Wales is on the list again
Brilliant footage and great to get an insight from the Ashburnham team.
I was in a trance watching that - could have been sat here all night and great soundtrack 👍👍
Fantastic inside Dan 😎 Please do some more of these behind the club scenes. 🤩👊🏻
The end of series venue spotlight is a great feature of the Bus Tours. You must arrive in the dark and leave in the dark to get so much footage for the courses that you visit. Then you turn it into loads of interesting and entertaining content! Wales has some amazing courses and you drove past Celtic Manor to get to them!!
What a very well set up and run golf course. The professional knows his stuff and how knowledgable was the secretary of the course was. Obviously when lockdown is over, I hope as soon as possible, I would like to play golf on this course and challenge my game on this course. Great video and I always look forward to watching your next video.
Another insightful Vlog - superb 👏🏻👏🏻
Great to see the people behind the scenes 👍👍
Nice one Dan - liked the look behind the scenes - some interesting things going on - like the creativity you're introducing - classy!
Blimey Lester is going to be creating that kind of fitting area! Good behind the scenes video. Thanks
Enjoyed this video. A nice behind the scenes bolt on to the course vlog.
Love this kind of video Dan! Keep them coming when you can!
I've never played Ashburnham, when this hell is over it's on the bucket list.
Great video Dan, really interesting to see the history of the club and the people that make the club work 👍🏌️⛳️
Always good to see the faces, characters and passion behind a golf course. Nice work. All these places to visit when we are vaccinated from the lurgy. 👍
Great video Dan very professional 👍👍🏌🏻♂️
Just got back into golf and enjoying a few channels on TH-cam. I've found yours the best combination of entertaining and informative. Combining this with the playing vlog is a great example of why. Will be going back into the archive through lockdown.
Thanks Derek for commenting, enjoy the rest of the videos 👍
Just proves it’s not all about ‘hitting the golf ball’, as there’s so much more that goes on within the game of golf, especially the environmental aspects of the course. I do like these snippets behind the scenes, keep doing them if you can.
Always like the behind the scenes pieces you do. Very well done video.
Enjoyed this video, some proper names on the trophy boards. Decided to rewatch the Vlog course looks great
It's really nice to see you chatting with the club pros. Unless they have a TH-cam channel they can be a very much glossed over part of a clubs functions. Would enjoy seeing some more chats with some really good club pros as you travel around.
Watched a golf event there on the weekend, lovely course. Brutal in the wind
Agreed!
Loving the increase in production quality over time 💖 The leap from the French courses to now is phenomenal! The way the beat hit right as Dan struck his drive😘🤌🤌🤌Outstanding work lads! Your work does not go unnoticed. Lee is still my spirit animal🦄✨
Like the GEO! Golf should be played on the edge of nature.
Great insight into the club and something I would like to see more of along with the regular features from Torquay on the Sunday Morning Show. Definitely want a trip to South Wales now.
Great video Dan quite could we have this as a late Sunday show when golf is back open before you realise the vlogs on the Monday by far the best channel on TH-cam 👍
Should do vlog like these every where you go enjoyed that
Do more of these short ones, Dan. Nice little gems.
Production values here are highly impressive 👍
Great footage & insight
Great introduction to a course, maybe something you could add to beginning or end of your vlog set. Really enjoyed this!
Looks like a lovely course!
The members are lucky to have Tom as their Pro.
Excellent video Dan, keep em coming
Dan great video. You guys rock on your production quality
Great job Dan👌👌👌👌
Great to see and hear from people involved with the course and the pro’s set up does look good don’t see that at many courses you seem to have one of the best jobs in the world not jealous much lol
Really like this insight
That was cool 😎 as Dan I love the way they are looking after the extra land for the animals and the estuaries more clubs should be doing the same being from Australia and living on a piece of land with lots of bush and animals that made me happy, great job to them 👏 👍 🇦🇺
Like that Dan, Like that 👍 more of those from each blog please 👌
For not having any course vlogs, that was pretty good.
Cheers Dan hope the lock down will finish soon!!!!
Lovely course and vid.
Dan how about a series of looking at the top 50 or 100 golf courses in the UK. Going over the design and history and what you think of the course. I really enjoy the course vlogs but it’s nice to see some different golf content
Great intro to the club. Does this mean we don’t get a 6 part vlog?
It was on 2 weeks ago Roddy 👍
It would be great to see how Tom tweets clubs for members...great video..
I live Ashburnham and have travelled the last 3 years from.Surrey to play the great course. I'm also new to 'Get up Dan" TH-cam channel and have enjoyed what I've seen. I have to take you to task tho...No 3 in Wales? Who's ranking? Could be No 3 in S.Wales...Its all objective I agree. Stay safe
Welcome to the channel, thanks for watching it’s a Golf World ranking 👍
Is Lester going to be asking you to turn his storeroom / workshop into a tour van now ?? I can see him in a place like that ! Don't see many others make vids like this Dan and its another side of golf we don't see during our once a week rounds. I'm looking forward to the next time you're out with the greenkeeper !
Just a thought, doing some more of your interesting history pieces on various golf courses might go quite well while things are still closed. 👍
Love your videos and entertainment. Might be beneficial if you can also comment or provide advise shot techniques. Basically how to approach and how has player approached. Bernie is great but in all videos seems to your side kick.. He need to show his own personality. Keep up the good work with videos , will appreciate slow motion videos for shots as watching it also helps ! 🏌️♀️
I think it world be helpfull if your gave some details regarding pricing for these courses you are playing and how to go about getting booked onto some of the higher end courses ?
Another enjoyable vlog Dan ,keep them coming.Did I see Wilbur talking to Nigel Havers the other night at Bovey Castle??
I think you did 👍
Thought so ,my wife wanted to know who the handsome ,well spoken ,debonair guy was ? I said it’s Wilbur of course !
Brilliant video, thanks. How about doing another video every week as a Q&A like the Sunday show?
Starting a Live tomorrow (Thursday) at 6:30pm 👍
@@DanHendriksenGolf Sorry can't make it live (I cook at 6.30), but will see it on catch up.
The sooner the courses get open the better, The Golf business is going to suffer terribly especially in our game you can socially distance eh, nice vlog , regards
@Steve Lingy I reckon we will go back to "Tiers" 7-10th March, that means golf, but youre right its a disaster atm here !!!
Love the vids 📹
Hi Dan, maybe you could get together with Paul and maybe the guys somehow would love to hear what sort of food you guys eat through a round of golf and how often you would snack. I am still trying to find something that will sustain me for a round other subscribers may find this interesting as well, cheers, Bryan
have to put on must play list x
I can see a new revenue stream coming Dan... doing paid videos for courses that they can link on their websites. Having watched the great film work of this place in the vlog I would love to play the course after lockdown. 👍
Get lee in some more course vlogs!!
Only half way through just now but wanted to pay my respects to the editing and filming. The whole thing is looking really polished Dan (and Lee). Love the toning, love the attention to detail on the water horizons being straight. Really enjoying the Slo mo (my opinion would be, be a little careful you don’t do too many slo mo’s but it’s an opinion and am nit picking). I really like the behind the scenes of the behind the scenes. (Dan brining filmed whilst filming people).
Personally I’m not a great fan of the font. Just looks a little dated but again, my opinion and nit picking.
But to reiterate, it looks beautiful and so professional.
I only mention these things as you have openly said you would like feedback, good and bad, in order to help the journey. I’m not qualified in any stretch, just giving my feedback as a fan and a photographer.
Regards always. #ilikethat
Jason, always take on board your thoughts, thank you 👍
@@DanHendriksenGolf thanks Dan, appreciate the reply. Such a shame about the timing of the lockdown and not being able to shoot any more course Vlogs. They are such a welcome change from the regular stuff on YT from golf creators. Don’t get me wrong, I love watching the Crossfields, Finches and Shiels of this world but it’s getting a little monotonous and yours is a welcome fresh breath. Fingers crossed you continue to attract and keep viewers during this tough time. Stay true to your vision and your heart Dan. Massive respect to you and the team (as it’s definitely a team effort)
This Harry Vardon guy you quoted in the intro...what kind of grip does he use? :^)~
👍
What's the green fees dan.... Looks a lovely course but you never tell us how much to play em..
I don’t because they always change from season to season and these videos will be watched at different times 👍
OK no problems just some of these tracks are eye watering expensive...
@@markwoodcock8998 This season will be £55 per round 👍 however I’m sure there are overnight package deals with
www.welshgolfbreaks.com/gb-swales1.php
That's a great price. Cheers.
Should you not be in lockdown????
We are 👍
