Erik Anders Lang If anything possibly adding a little graphic of where the pin or fairway “target landing area” is. Would help with seeing your angle of approach
@@RandomGolfClubFilms I think adding an indicator in editing of where the pin may be, or highlighting your aim points could help :) but otherwise, I LOVE this content from you.
@@RandomGolfClubFilms This would be ambitious and probably couldn't be filmed at the same time as your round, but I was imagining that a majestic drone flyover of each hole would really add to your descriptions that you're giving as you start each hole. I know, I know... that's a lot of extra work, but anytime you incorporate that dreamy aerial footage into your videos, it is pure magic.
This is what I want a course vlog to be. Every shot, the views, discussion of greens and course features and plenty of the mental game as the round progresses. Will consume as many of these as you're willing to create, even if it's the same course multiple times.
You know the feeling when you’re on hole 15/16 where you know the round is coming to an end, I start to get sad that the round is almost over, but happy to have experienced the game no matter how I’m playing. Strange enough having not played for two months watching this was the first time I’ve felt that in a long time. I just didn’t want it to end. Anyone else?
Hey Erik! I left a comment on your last video talking about how much I wanted to play golf, even I wouldn't play well. You replied with "Put down the scorecard, and have fun", and I just wanted to let you know how much that helped me! I play in the front yard of my house with a pitching wedge, and a 60 degree so I don't hit it into the road, and your words helped me relax a lot more, and I started seeing immediate improvement. Hopefully my parents can fulfill my high school graduation wants and let me play a round at a course here soon. I've only played on a course twice so I'm really hoping :) I just wanted to say thanks! Keep up the great content, and enjoy those adventures in golf (pun intended)
I love that you took that to heart. My goals are really to help people enjoy the game of golf, and to laugh at the bad shots. Try looking at a twilight round. It's the best time of day (I think), and a lot of courses have cheaper prices starting around 3-5pm. In the meantime, keep up the great work in your yard, and I'm sure you'll get out on a course soon.
Erik Anders Lang Thank you! It means a lot! Ill definitely try for the twighlight round, midday Georgia rounds are hot and beat down on you, so a cooler round is a lot better
Dude, your videos just keep getting better. I can’t wait for one of these videos on a Scottish links. Love the commentary and the reads you give. Love the tracer. Would loved to have seen where the ball lands on the map. Also, there might some room for EAL chillhop music too. 💙
@@RandomGolfClubFilms Add some graphics to show where you are aiming. Try different approaches to courses where you play more aggressive and other rounds where you focus more on playing the smart shots to improve your score. Someone like @GolfSidekick has made some great videos where he tries to help all golfers by not always taking the driver off the tee or hitting woods from 300 yards out. Go check it out!
Good playing. I played that course a couple times a week one summer when I worked near there. $10 to walk 9 after 5PM. The single greatest deal in golf.
Erik Anders Lang Actually I think you are pretty spot on with what I believe a course vlog should be because after watching this I can form how I would play the course myself. The only thing I maybe would add is insight on the community of the course. I have found that although we are all golfers each course has it’s on culture.
Playing here next month. I’m a lefty that plays a fade, your shot shape and strategy is a perfect match to my game. I will watch this vlog a few more times. Thank you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
And I also had a double on 16 yesterday. It was super windy and it can just be a brutal hole. But so glad you got to highlight Rustic. It's a real gem in our backyard. I pretty much only play here because it's such a fun and unique course. The greens really do need to be experienced to be understood.
Walking Rustic for second time tomorrow - first 10 years ago - and nervous about keeping up pace of play, so this is very useful for plotting out a strategy to avoid trouble - and ball search delays. Thanks, and please make more of these around SoCal. Playing new courses, the apps usually don't show slopes that can ground-hook into hazards, so funner to start with a better game plan.
Please make more of these, I love watching you play an entire round shot by shot. Especially during this downtime, teaches me a bit on how to approach each type of shot
By far my favorite video you have made! Course vlogs are my absolute favorite. I love everything about this video. Being able to watch every single shot is the best along with the commentary. LOVED IT!!
Of course I really love the videos where you have four golfers, caddies, camera crew, drone flyovers, dialogue with everybody, etc. But I understand that this is a different beast, and it's very enjoyable. I mean, I don't think you've made ANY bad products!
Thanks Eric, this is SO soothing and at the same time motivating to watch! I love how calm and minimalistic it is, just you, the ball, the course and birds flying by. Also you seem super centered. I totally feel everything I love about golf in this video, it makes me want to hit the course immediately! Can't wait seeing you making more of these vlogs (and learning how to film the ball, haha).
Love this style man, the post commentary is much better than on course vlogging. Let's you focus on playing golf and enjoying it and we also get straight forward commentary, no BS filler afterwards. Awesome stuff!
Loved this, it's nice to see a different side to you, and see what goes through your head before a shot. Really enjoyable, carry on doing what your doing..
@@RandomGolfClubFilms yes watched the first vlog, was hoping you was going to put the back 9 up, should get Mr Kerr to help you to get the ball in shot 😂😂😂, loved it
Great vlog. I really dug the commentary, round and (even) the bloopers. Although this course is super challenging, especially the back 9, I still love it. Nice job capturing its deadly beauty.
Only just found EAL and honestly it’s the best golf TH-cam channel. Love the course Vlogs, makes me want to travel the US and play golf, except not yet because RONA
We were so overwhelmed (in the best way possible) by the positive feedback. We knew we needed to put out a part two of the back 9. Which version did you like better?
That 16th hole got you again ...I think as golfers we all have a hole like that ..... I do i find new ways of stuffing it up Erik really enjoyed the vlog ... thanks
Big dog is looking toasty EAL, nice round and good commentary. As a fan of golf sidekick this is probably one of my favorite styles of golf content. keep it coming
Enjoying your vlogs. Watching your chipping at Rustic and Bandon. Remember Scotland? You can run these shots through and up these well mown aprons with 7i through wedges and easily get better outcomes. It's a fools errand (not to mention the inevitable chunks and thins) to send the ball up in the air. All the best from North Berwick
This was an awesome layout/design for a course vlog. The interface and the bird's eye view has all the info one could want for one of these videos. You have to keep doing these for sure!
Love this kind of video Erik, good to know you enjoy making them also. It would be amazing to see something like this combined with your other videos that have the aerial shots here and there. Keep up the good work, and good play!
Absolutely LOVED seeing a course vlog on your channel and this one was excellent. You do a great job of combining commentary about the holes with commentary about your game. Your shot tracers were some of the best I've seen on TH-cam. Perhaps the only thing I would add would be a matching shot tracer on the hole overview picture (check out Golf Sidekick for a great example). I would definitely make sure to watch ANY future course Vlogs.
I love your shot for shot videos, your other videos are great but these ones I feel like I’m almost on the course playing with you. Keep making great videos !
Nice one Eric. The average person won’t know how hard it is to shoot 81 from the tips at Rustic Canyon. Well done. If the wind comes up that 81 could easily be a 90 as I’m sure you well know.
Loved the vlog. Probably the best done of any I've seen. Definitely consider adding a target in editing of your aim point and pins. Kinda makes me want to get out to LA and play there, though I likely wouldn't break 80 from the blues 🙈😂😂
You must feel pretty vulnerable putting a video like this out. Its awesome to see every single shot though...make me feel like I'm there playing with y'all. Great content. Still vastly underrated.
I wasn't sure if we should post these or not, so went out on a limb to try it out. We're thrilled by the positive feedback so far. Is there anything else you'd like to see in any upcoming course vlogs?
@@RandomGolfClubFilms I think keeping that little hole preview from the scorecard on all the non putting shots would be helpful, possibly with a small edit to mark the approx spot where you are hitting your second shot from. It would add just a small amount of context.
@@RandomGolfClubFilms I actually like the idea of adding a dot on the map for your second shot. Lets us see the angle of the green you're shooting into. I think the commentary over the shots explaining your thought process is gold as well. There really ins't a lot that is missing which is why I think you are getting such good reviews on this content. I know you have said you hate playing for score but I think people like the anticipation to see what a low handicap golfer can shoot on these courses. Good stuff man keep it up. Congrats on the 100k.
Love these and definitely wanna see more. Only thing I'd add is the shot tracer on the hole's overview map like Golf Sidekick does, even if it's just an estimate of where you're landing
@@RandomGolfClubFilms I did, to be honest I don't have a preference I thought they were both entertaining and informative. I like the pre-shot breakdown and shot tracing.
Hi Erik, would be awesome if you made series about putters. I have found that many people collect putters with the same philosophy as vintage watch collectors. Dings and scratches on putters, just like on watches tell a story. It's the one golf club in a bag that doesn't get replaced as often and can last a lifetime if taken care of. It would be cool to see content based on different people talking about their putter like the Hodinkee talking watches. Jordan Spieth has been playing his scotty for ages... just throwing it out there. Would be a great to see your twist on this! have a good one!
This is an amazing course vlog. I love the voice-over. I love the shot-tracer, as well as your thoughts behinds each shot. I would love to see more of these in the future!
EAL, I love these course vlogs. Can’t wait for more. If I could however, make 1 small suggestion? With the hole map on the right, leave it there and add in a marker of where your ball landed.
I absolutely love how you set all this up. The ball tracer. The hole info. The clubs you’re using. Distance. It’s all perfect. Thank you!
Thanks, man. If you could change anything about the course vlogs, what would you change?

Chris Renshall I agree. If all of his course vlogs were Rustic Canyon id happily watch every one of them.
You have to do more of these we all want them
“Oh look a bunny...that’s cute” 😂😂
I could watch this for hours. I may go back and watch part 1 over again.
I find this so relaxing to just watch and listen to the thought process of the shots
You know the feeling when you’re on hole 15/16 where you know the round is coming to an end, I start to get sad that the round is almost over, but happy to have experienced the game no matter how I’m playing. Strange enough having not played for two months watching this was the first time I’ve felt that in a long time. I just didn’t want it to end. Anyone else?
exactly how I felt.
Hey Erik. You should put a red dot on the picture of the hole so we can see where it landed.
Great idea
Love this idea and or if you could add a tracer or show where the ball went on the picture of the hole on the right a la the Nintendo golf game
Best course vlog I’ve seen, I really like the format and the professionalism

Love the course vlogs. It’s like watching a movie with director commentary. Really taking us on the course with you. Keep them coming!

Love the course blog. Please do more. Thankyou for letting us be apart of your golf life.
Yeah Erik I’m gonna need about 100 more of these EAL course vlogs. Thank you
Working on it!
This content never gets old. Keep this up Erik!
Let’s go! I’ve been waiting patiently for this one!
I'm glad we dropped it a day early, then.

This is an ideal course vlog. It is what I want from every golf TH-cam channel I watch and you delivered! A+
This is the best shot tracer I’ve ever seen 🤤 I love the white thin line, it’s just so clean to watch.
8:40 I love how come your shocked to see the bunny even though you probably seen it when you were playing hahaha
Love this style man, the post commentary is much better than on course vlogging. Let's you focus on playing golf and enjoying it and we also get straight forward commentary, no BS filler afterwards. Awesome stuff!
Holes 12 and 13 are just gold.
There’s nothing like hitting the ball close to the pin on a par 3. So satisfying
I liked the wide angle you did at the end makes it easy to see more of the frame. Get course vlog and absolutely would love to see more.
Outstanding 2 videos, one of the more relaxing course vlogs I’ve seen. Really enjoyed it.
I love this . Plz do this more ! Soo calming to watch and love to learn from you .
I love Rustic Canyon. Definitely high on the list of Cons for leaving the LA area 15 years ago. La Purisima in Lompoc is another gem.
Loved this, it's nice to see a different side to you, and see what goes through your head before a shot. Really enjoyable, carry on doing what your doing..

Erik, your spot on with the your comment. I rather have a challenging par than an easy birdie. That is a mindset of good golfers👍
Great vlog. I really dug the commentary, round and (even) the bloopers. Although this course is super challenging, especially the back 9, I still love it. Nice job capturing its deadly beauty.
