    Love your content! I happen to be visiting Scotland from the USA right now. I didn’t bring my clubs, but wish I had. We are currently staying in Dornoch: so many beautiful golf courses here!

    For the photos, Tracy wins every time. The lady has a great talent for framing an image with objects in the foreground and producing a depth of field.

    Hi. I LOVE your channel! Back in the 90s there was a similar show here in the US, but I can't remember the name of it. Inspired me to walk and carry my bag until 2023 when I had to realize I can no longer walk fast enough on a course where I'm surrounded by carts. I now take a cart but it is your swing that helps me most. When I.use a short backswing with plenty of rotation I get the distance and accuracy I need! Thank you for helping my golf game!

    You found a hidden gem of a course there Andy, it has a great variety of holes which most golfer's like to have when playing a golf course. I had a favourite course like that in Scotland. Edzell GC mainly for its tranquility and the condition of its fairways and greens. Thanks for a very enjoyable video And .. Tracy for the best pics this week.

    Tracy D for me this time. My favourite course is the Queens at Gleneagles. I have been fortnately to play it many times. It is just majestic in views, design, atmosphere, and in the test it gives. Lots of shorter holes that give you the risk/reward buzz, but its really the ambience of it that I love. It's my happy place. Having said that, I was lucky enough to play Arbroath last week and that is right at the top of my Links loves at the moment. Always yes for discounts too, Andy!

    Music, video quality, fascinating courses - all great motives for watching your videos. Then, you're striking the ball so well that the image creates a desire to play the courses you show.

    Excellent video of a great looking course.
    You asked for our "perfect clubs". Mine is Shiskine Golf Club in Blackwaterfoot on the west coast of the Isle of Arran, a 12-hole links course where I used to play golf on holiday as a kid - wonderful times and some great holes where you really have to think about your shots. Also fantastic views of the cliffs, beaches and Mull of Kintyre in the background.
    And Tracy d for the photo.

    Photos are certainly Tracy’s!! Perfect golf club ‘GANTON’ because of the history, the heritage and the immense bunkers! In terms of the perfect club for me personally my own ‘Arcot Hall’ as it’s a Braid classic with some of the best people I’ve ever met on the golf course which makes it a privilege to play an olde skool track with great people 👏👏

  • @frederichoedt2506
    @frederichoedt2506 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    the layout of the course and its level of maintenance, the quietness on and around the course, the quality of the practice facilities (especially after months and months of rain last autm/winter and even spring up until April), the amount of friendliness of the members and staff, the distance to the club as well as its full membership fee, the 19th hole, ... it's really a combination of all of those things that (can) make a perfect golfclub Andy ... you can have a great course but if it takes you an hour to get there every time, only to end up with people that aren't too sociable, it can get really annoying really quick as well ...

    Hi Andy, recently discovered you through your video detailing how you actually only need 7 clubs; absolutely loved it, as I was carrying the exact same clubs in my bag haha (apart from the wedge, have a 56, but it might be too lofty for me as i feel like im missing something between the P and S, so might opt for a 52 soon).
    Wanted to ask you, what (golf?) shoes are you wearing in your recent videos?
