No hyperbole.
No incessant fist bumping.
Just a couple of legends out for a stroll on foggy afternoon. 👍
Class.
Poetry
Best caddy ever! I loved when he was telling you to clear your mind, gather your thoughts, forget the last shot. That’s more important than course knowledge sometimes.
Jonesy should give Rory a call....
I have been watching golf for more years than I care to admit. These two vlogs are the best I have ever seen.
What a wonderful Gentleman and perfect caddie to have on your bag Iona !!! He was such a joy to listen to!
Boy he loves that game.
Best episode so far Iona, 2 humble friends out for a game of golf. An absolute pleasure. You need Jonesy on your bag when your in competition, he’s a great calming influence with a soothing voice.
As an old Yank retiree, I’m sure I will never get to St. Andrew’s, but you video is the next best thing. Thanks Iona.
Never say never my friend!
Never say never my friend, the course is always there for everyone. Do it. ❤
These were two very enjoyable episodes. I really enjoyed the conversations with your caddie.
Totally agree! The very next best thing to being there!
@@madridcucho5483As Sean Connery.... 🏴 ⛳ as 007
... NEVER say Never..
...again! 💖
Once again Iona, pure gold. Jonesy was invaluable, a steadying and encouraging rock.
This has to be one of my favorite caddies ever. His voice is meditative. Well done Iona! Great video.
Get him on the bag iona!... I loved his possitive but firm motivation!. What a pair 🙏
Hands down the best golf watch on TH-cam, no gimmicks just pure golf and fantastic seeing the interaction between player and caddy.
For all the others who have already said it, I couldn't agree more, that was the two best golf videos ever filmed on TH-cam. I only hope we see the two of you together again.
Having Steve Jones on the bag gave a fantastic insight - what a terrific caddie & gentleman!
Two things….
We need more Jonesy and there is just something emotional with your videos. All the other content creators do silly games and bravado, this hits the ‘feels’. ❤
What an absolute gentleman. I'm sure his calm manner contributed to your round. A few shots owed to you on that course . Fantastic video. 🎉❤
One word, immense, those two episodes shall live with you for the rest of your life, fantastic as ever.
Iona, thank you for this!! What treat to see you strike the ball and hear Jonesy’s advice: “clear your mind. This is only shot in front of you.”
Absolutely magnificent. A true partnership of golfing talents. The camerawork and editing were top notch too. Chapeau all.
Brilliant! She was striping it all day - with a swap-in driver! Great to see some of that typical Iona-putting towards the end!
My favourite golf TH-cam channel by a country mile... & then some. Great stuff Iona & team
Thank you Iona for this trip around St. Andrew’s. You and Jonesy make a great team. Hope you qualify and have the opportunity to play your home course. Good luck.
What a great video. My son and I rented clubs and shoes and waited in the queue and 2 retired British Army officers let us joint them on the Old Course. Matt was 15. What a thrill for us, especially watching the 2000 Open on TV knowing we had walked over that famous bridge on 18. Thank you, Iona, for reminding me of such a wonderful memory. The best moment was when Matt hit a great drive on 14 and one of the British officers said to Matt’s great amazement, “You’ve gone straight to hell!”
You love golf as much as this old duffer does. I've only visited St Andrews once, to walk around the perimeter. You two on the course, well it felt as though we were with you both. Simply the best golf film I have ever seen. Thank you.
Simply brilliant. The silent understanding between player and caddie is as good as the chat. This is now the go-to course guide for anyone playing the Old Lady 😊
I was bloody nervous when you took that tee shot on the par 3.
Remember yourself well from my Wentworth days and glad to see you haven’t changed your personality 😊. That was really enjoyable.
Jonesy, what a gent and a calming and knowledgeable chap. All I can say Iona is that if you qualify, he’s got to be on your bag?!
Fantastic couple of videos. Jonesy the caddie, what a great guy, would make a great life coach 😂
Iona you are just a joy to watch, I hope you kept that driver, what a wonderful display!
There's so much I like about this video: the course itself, the calm and friendly atmosphere, the quality of golf (really great on the 17th!), and of course the one and only Iona :-)
Iona smashing it again. This is proper golf content. Informative and well filmed. Keep up the great work !
You have no idea what you have done for me. I am 76, and there is no way I would ever get the chance to play at Saint Andrews. But thanks to these two videos, I can check it off my bucket list. Much thanks.
What an utterly joyous video to watch. The way you play and handle the course management is inspirational, helpful and refreshing. The course speaks for itself. Thanks for sharing such valuable content.
What a round and what a caddie!! His encouragement and his word especially on the short putts were great. I’m going to try to remember his words when I play next.
This is for me golf heaven. I wish I could like and love this video 1000 times!!!!
Truly a joy to watch. Thank you Iona❤️
Thanks Iona I think this is your best video yet… I loved it and your caddie Mr Jones was amazing. I really like the relationship we saw between the 2 of you and how together you planned your way round the course. Good luck in qualifying and I hope to see you at the AIG in August ⛳
Absolutely fantastic video. The chemistry between you and Jonsey was electric in a strangely calm manner. The golf was great but the commentary while going around the course was brilliant.
What a lovely piece of work, Iona.
Jonesy is a star, and it would be great to have him on my bag, as someone who is an inconsistent, some say crap, striker of the ball.😂😂❤❤❤❤
God I love this game.....what a treat that was to follow along with. A good Welshmen on the bag, a foggy day by the sea and thoughtful golf shots. Perfect. The cuppa and pie at the turn were the bonus :)
That smile, after firing her tee shot over the O on 17, shows how much Iona really does love the game! And Jonesy was absolutely the consummate professional. I'll be rewatching this vlog again and again.
The wisdom that man has is priceless. I think he knew you were going to fly the green with that club choice😂. Great golf all round, well played.
I know, poor Jonsey, had to watch me dig my own grave 😂🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Good back nine Iona,the tension and concentration was being passed on to us viewers. The putts did eventually start dropping, much deserved for your overall play. Jonesy is an excellent caddie, kept you focused and calm when it could have gone very badly. Well done both, great viewing.
It’s fantastic to see you hitting the ball so well after all you’ve been through. You and Jonesy are the winning team don’t let anyone nab him! What a brilliant round of golf , you have to qualify for the open now!
Best tour around St Andrews I’ve ever seen/ heard on TH-cam.Iona I love how you always trust your putting to get you out of any misplaced pitch. And Jonesy was just the best. The approach on 18 when he says ‘Valley’- no-one says the word Valley better than a Welshman!
I’m definitely coming to St Andrews for my 60th in March in 2026- not visited since for 40 years when I played a few courses around Gullane.I play a lot in North Wales coming from the North West but Golf in Scotland is just the best.
What a great combination IS and Jonesy are. Loved your interaction together
Birdie 16, Stripe one over the "O" on 17 followed by an up and down from the road, so close to birdie on 18. The Old Course was not about to give everything up that day. 😉 I'll argue you were in the red this round despite those 2 doubles. Nicely done.
We all know that everyone playing at the AIG will happily take -1 over those closing holes come late August. Iona, thank you for your sense of the moment within your respectful manner. If you have qualified, you'll have a head start with Steve on your bag for the tournament. Loved watching him take notes, checking your yardages, club selection, a consummate professional.
Beautiful course, great music, Iona and Jonesey's voices. All have a calming effect on me. Although the putts weren't falling, it seems your round was good. Thanks for the video and have an awesome day!
What a golfer, that second shot into 18 was flighted to perfection. Lovely fella Jonesy!
Fantastic insight to the thought processes of golfer and caddy. So much we can all learn from this.
Brillant. They both truly respect the game and are humble to the course. Finally a break from all the usual look at me it’s all about me TH-cam golfers.
What a great caddie you had. I was constantly smiling with you all the way down the last 5 holes. No other words but beautiful golf in every way. 👌👌
This player, caddie dialogue is fantastic! Respect for the game!
What a wonderful team you guys make, both of you a master of your trade. So very well played both..
What a good caddie. So calming and reassuring.
Would love a backstory short on that gentleman caddie. What a neat guy. Great job Iona!
One of my favorite episodes - two class acts walking the fairways 👍
Wonderful play Iona. Jonesy is a star. Wonderful performance. Good to see you at my home club with Sofie the other day. Looking forward to see you qualify. Go girl. David
I’ve been patiently waiting for the “Back 9”. Two of my Clemson University Golfers (Thomas Higgins of Roscommon, Ireland and Jonathan Nielsen of Copenhagen, Denmark) are playing in the St Andrews Links Trophy Event in St Andrews this week . . . Day One on the New Course . . . Day Two on the Old Course. Seeing you play and your caddie explain, helps me enjoy their efforts all the more.
I treasure our time spent in patient, caring conversation. Thanks once more for carrying us along!!! It’s good to see you playing “at home”!!!
I believe Iona that's the best ever video you've done! Highly entertaining, factual and really felt the sense of how important that was to you! And Jonesy what a man of calm influence and knowledge - get him on the bag every round ❤
One of your BEST 9&9s! Just love it. Perhaps one of the best aspects is that MASTER CLASS on caddying we just watched. What a dream he is!❤
This channel makes me want to play golf. As for Mr Jones - a complete and utter star.
After 38 years living in England, I’m moving back to Scotland next year and Iona reminds me so often of what I’ve been missing all this time….the golf and the Scottish accents will be a salve to my soul….thank you lovely girl! ❤
You’ll miss the English weather! Talking as a Yorkshireman who’s lived in Scotland for 4 years! Horrendous weather! Lol
@@user-rk9gm3bg2o I live in Norfolk, the driest part of the UK so I do have to accept that I’m heading back to one of the wettest parts of the UK but the positives far outweigh the negatives…..hopefully I’ll never cast eyes on a mosque again….if you get my drift?
@@dougm659 Waste of time moving back up here then mate if that's what you want to move away for but best of luck though
@@dougm659 I understand Doug! 😂
@@MarkSmith-jt3pt well, apart from the 550 golf courses and a lower/nil concentration of immigrant scumbags, I’m building a house overlooking the sea where the air and water are clear and the food is out of this world!
Your content just takes it to the next level and with your passion for the game coming through . What a caddie keep him on the bag ….
Great caddie, he did everything he could to navigate you through the course and get you to the hole. Great job, enjoyed watching two legends!
Excellent pair of videos.Mr.Jones shepherding you around to perfection. He certainly knows his onions.
Love the video Iona! Pars on 16,17 & 18....impressive!!! Played it twice on a trip in 2018... a caddy makes the round so much more enjoyable.
I was fortunate enough to visit St Andrews on a Sunday, when no golf is allowed, so I got to walk the entire course. This video brought back a lot of memories.
Cracking video Iona! Could feel the tension in the round and Jonsey was an absolute legend! Loved how we would always remind you to forget about the bad shot and to put all your focus and effort on the next one.
Jonesy’s insight and knowledge of the lie of the land and the good misses is incredible, and invaluable!
iona.. i can't express just how much i love your channel! Good luck for qualifying!
Lucky enough to be a local member and so nice to get Jonesy's perspective on playing the Old. What a calming influence he was. Great video and good luck qualifying.
Great Vid Iona I am so looking forward to see you in the Open WHEN you qualify ⛳
These last two videos at Saint Andrews were really outstanding Iona. Thank you so much for sharing them it was pure enjoyment.
What a rescue on the road hole!! Incredible couple of videos, Iona, and so nice to hear the advice from Jonesy the caddie - what a nice guy!
You two were a lovely pair to watch play this round! Great job! Thank you for sharing another round with us! And what a dream course to walk with you. ❤
These two vids were wonderful. The hole graphics that popped up were really, really good. Watching you play and the back and forth with Jonesy was very entertaining and fun to watch. And the old course is such an iconic place. Not sure why but I found these vids soothing in a way. The yellow gorse has a certain beauty that sits so well on courses like this. Thanks Iona and thanks Jonesy. Look forward to the next one as always.
This is just first class content. The gentle music,and the moody "Old Course" are a perfect combination. You both work great together.
What a classic! These two "videos" (Front 9 & Back 9) are my favourite golf TH-cam videos, ever!
Mr Steve Jones is a gentleman and everyone's dream cuddy... Iona, you were brilliant, too ;-)
I now know what a real caddy really does... You chemistry with Jonesy was a real pleasure to watch And you weren't bad yourself... Please don't ever stop making content you have the knack of delivering GREAT vids........
Absolutely loved that! Thank you.
Another superb video from Iona! After a couple of challenging puts just not dropping, to finish the last 4 in -1, bodes very well showing great focus. And when you said 'over the O' and did it!! And yes, what a gent Jonesy is!
Jonesy on the bag made this episode so wonderful. The calming words of encouragement and guidance were amazing. It was like having a friend, golf guru and shamanistic wisdom all rolled into a single round of golf. I loved this episode…my only regret is knowing that injury has robbed you from competition. Your swing is a thing of beauty ❤
Special place. Can't wait to go back.
Loved it. The chatting with Jonesy was very informative. Great golf channel.
An absolute pleasure to watch 💖 And I imagine a joy for you to be playing some fabulous golf with a wonderful caddie on your bag. The course looked amazing as well. Thank you, Iona and team, for bring this content to us 🙏💖⛳️
My goodness what a lovely video…and what a lovely finish, Iona. Not much more to say…of course you Love this game…there is nothing like it, and nothing like it on this course. ❤
Thoroughly enjoyed both episodes… Jonesy’s demeanour and knowledge was rock solid… you made a great team. A pleasure to watch 👏👏👏
Such a great couple of videos. Love Iona and Jonesy together. Such a calming and knowledgeable gentleman.
That was wonderful Iona. So great to see you and the Caddy working so well together and you finished so well that 4 on 17 was class. Good luck with qualifying
What a great couple of videos Iona. Glad you made them longer to get the real feel of how to play the course. Lovely man Jonesy was. Think I need him when I play 😊
Said it before, Iona is the best golfer on youtube. Even without her 'A' game she's 2 over on a really hard course.
Great round Iona. Just great. And i love you caddy.
Fantastic video!! You played so well and it was great insight into the course. I think you should buy that driver!
Iona, loved it. Suggest you acquire that driver. I can’t imagine you would have done better with your own. Keep up the great work.
Wonderful interaction between you and Mr. Jones. A good caddie is a joy to walk with and you had one of the best!
Absolutely the best golf I've ever watched. Bar none.
These two videos are the best golfing videos I have ever watched. Jonesy is instantly elevated to the status of national treasure for me. Please let's see him in action with you again.
Easily my 2 favourite vlogs. Jonesy is a priceless human. Great match for you.
I am a member at the St Andrews GC and have a links tickets,so am lucky enough to play the old regularly. This was superb as all your content is, I am playing in the Spring prizes next week and hope for as good a round with the hints and tips you gave.
Thanks Iona keep up the good work lass
What a great video. Well played indeed Iona. So consistent off the tee and fairways. Tough course and with your expert caddie, you smashed it.
Also, praise to the editor and musical score. Complemented the action and course so well ❤
Iona I can't think you enough for the two videos, it had been a dream of mine to play the old course for all of my time golfing, I eventually (after many times in the ballot) got to play it with my brother nigh on 20 years ago now, it was incredibly special then and watching your videos flooding back along with a few tears which shows how special the memories are to me, so a very big thank you again for bringing the memories back. x
What a round! What a gent! Anyone else emotional watching 👀
