Golf - the only sport that can make you so upset that you drop this line "It would be like If you came home and you saw that you had been robbed and then you realize that they also took a shit in your kitchen." Haha this had me rolling.
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart - thanks for sharing this video. Makes me feel a lot better that someone that makes golf videos and has a much better handicap than me also has shit show days as well. Love your work Erik
I seriously enjoyed watching this. It would be really cool to see more of this. It reminds me of Genevieve Ling's channel when she does Golf with Gen. It would be cool to see you both play each other.
As a native Texan after watching you play beautiful courses with what appears as easy, then playing local courses like you did in this video. It really encouraged me that maybe I am not so horrible and Texas just has a lot of really tough courses. 😂
OMG.... 😆 you said going on to the back 9. We have highlights and even more low lights packed in the back 9... and I died laughing. Just the way you said it and the timing as is going into the pond... lol 17:50. Love the content my friend.
Erik, just thought I would let you know that I look forward to watching your videos! The editing is awesome and your commentary is the whole cream on top!
Grew up in Austin. Played a lot of golf at Lions and the 9-hole course Handcock. Probably played this course 1000 times. So watching this video was like a blast from the past.
Golf.....some days are memorable. Some days you wish you could erase from your memory. I would have been drinking after that first hole. Thanks for posting. We can all relate.
I legit just had this same round after a long cold winter. Same pull miss as well. I promise it gets better! Thanks for being humble, funny and relatable to all us hacks.
Great video. I loved the way you described the greens, "the character is good, I don't mind it." I couldn't agree more! Muni is a total gem with so much character, you can't get mad about such grainy, unpredictable greens. Maybe we'll pair up as singles out there one day, cheers!
Your a good man for sharing this round, helping all us wackers know we're not alone haha. These might not be your favorite to make but they sure are enjoyable. Way to keep it real EAL!
Welcome to town!!! Muny always kicks me in the teeth and the greens can be tough to read because most of the holes slope towards the lake. Your 2 putt on 6 that you though that was downhill is actually more uphill since you were putting away from Lake Austin.
EAL will be my spirit animal out on the golf course when I'm doing BAD AND also when I'm feeling pure joy as well. (hitting the PERFECT driver, iron, wedge, 1 putt in succession)
I missed these videos so much! I have those mizuno mp20’s and they’re amazing when you hit a beautiful shot like your first shot. Sounds amazing and feels amazing.
So great to have you here in Austin! The muni courses around here are pretty great/fun for muni. There's a few courses just outside Austin definitely worth visiting as well (Shadowglen and Plum Creek)
Your vid popped up in my list and I’m 10 mins in. Love the content already..! But I must say, you could be a talk show host or a host of literally anything..! Brother absolutely amazing!! My brother is a radio DJ and even he doesn’t compare to listening to you.. I’m in👍🏻😊
I dunno if it’s actually new but it’s new to me - the RGC animation at the beginning looks really awesome. And I’m really looking forward to the new shirt, really sick idea.
You can do it Eric! I did this last week. First 9 hole I was playing golf with a pool noodle it felt like. (Back to Back cold tops with the driver. Oh yeah it was awesome). Then I turned into a tour pro on the back 9, it was amazing!
As somewhat of a beginner to this game with only a few rounds under my belt out at riverside I would say that just being out on the course bad shots and all is a joy. Once again thanks for showing us..... it’s ok. But I will say those few great shots I had do make you wanna dive into starting to practice and get better. #nokeepingscorefornow...lol
Hey we've all been there. But then there are days like yesterday where I started off with eagles on both the first two holes thanks to a newly tweaked 3 hybrid and two very short par 4's (the course is in a Senior community and is only 4100 yards). Still, I had easy putts from 200 yards out and that's a great way to start any day. Somedays we jump right into a great game, sometimes we start slow and our game sneaks up on us later, and sometimes it says not today fool. That's golf. Showing the bad days is just as important as showing the great ones. And sometimes, it's more entertaining. 😂 I certainly see myself in many of the mistakes you made out there that day.
Yo, Erik! I’m near Austin! Come on out west to the Hill Country! I’ll take you to some of my favorite courses that show what the TX Hill Country has to offer! Some awesome courses out this way.
Nice. I’m about 20 mins away and play lions often! If you ever head out to Hutto and want to play Star Ranch, let me know. Also, hit up Kissing Tree in San Marcos.
I lived on Enfield across the street from Jerry Jeff Walker for a few years, and volunteered at Lions. Can't tell you how many times I've come into 16 a couple over ready to break 80 and go triple double double or something stupid. tough course for a draw hitter, and not easy around the greens. Beautiful location, lots of great people to play with, but tough course for me
Glad that you are back, really missed your style of vids, now life will be more bearable. Why the switch from TM to Mizuno......or is that going to be a podcast or another vid
Erik you should swing down to San Antonio, once of the municipal courses (Brackenridge) is a Tillinghast design and the oldest public course in the state. The front 9 is all original as far as I know. I play twilights there to remind myself that I would die at winged foot.
@@BodhiGeraci Don't really know. He just said that on one of his Instagram stories. But I think it has more to do with the fact that RGC doesn't want to be an ambassador for other brands but be their own where everyone is accepted. Could also be something completely different ... this just makes the most sense to me :)
Dude, this is exactly my game right now as well. Like EXACTLY......well, except the greens at my course are still frozen, so they play about a 12 instead of a 5 (cape cod area). I hope you gave yourself a break on the putting.....I think the rough at my course is faster than those greens, and everywhere I've seen you play have had nice zippy greens. Slow is tough.
Where in Austin can you do stand up? If golf doesn’t support your lifestyle, stand up will. You are awesome EAL. In Austin next week, let me know where your gigging!!
"This golf shot is like coming home to find out your house has been robbed and then discovering they took a shit in your kitchen". Had me in stitches.
Title is incredibly relatable
That LOFT joke was nice! Here in El Paso, Tx we say that was a PAR (Pathetic Ass Round)
Welcome to Texas, Erik! 🤠
th-cam.com/video/GOriXNj092I/w-d-xo.html
1. Love these videos. 2. Love that you posted even on a tough day. That attitude is great.
The good days wouldn't be near as good without the bad ones! Thanks for watching!
@@RandomGolfClubFilms welcome to Texas!
EAL: This is my worst round ever
Me: This is an average round
Yeah 51 ain't that bad.
Oh my god. The commentary on this vid is legendary. As much as I am laughing it is so relatable and human. Thank you, Erik.
Golf - the only sport that can make you so upset that you drop this line "It would be like If you came home and you saw that you had been robbed and then you realize that they also took a shit in your kitchen." Haha this had me rolling.
LOFT! Classic. I really like the format of you commentating after it has been filmed. So much better! Thanks Erik!
I will be stealing that “ Loft” quote next time out with the boys. Too funny.
Been away for a while, Erik, as I've been sulking about not being able to play here in England. This is the tonic I needed - splendid work.
I never thought my home course would ever be a RGC course vlog video! Maybe I’ll see you out there one day!
Have you seen the AIG episode?!
Some of the best commentary I’ve ever heard. Will definitely steal a few of those lines.
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart - thanks for sharing this video. Makes me feel a lot better that someone that makes golf videos and has a much better handicap than me also has shit show days as well. Love your work Erik
Love it Erik! Two things: 1) This is always entertaining and 2) This is one hundred percent relatable to every golfer ever. 😳
I seriously enjoyed watching this. It would be really cool to see more of this. It reminds me of Genevieve Ling's channel when she does Golf with Gen. It would be cool to see you both play each other.

as easy, then playing local courses like you did in this video. It really encouraged me that maybe I am not so horrible and Texas just has a lot of really tough courses. 😂
This is definitely true. Texas golf is tough. Hard pan fairways, strong winds, grainy greens, it’s a grind!
OMG.... 😆 you said going on to the back 9. We have highlights and even more low lights packed in the back 9... and I died laughing. Just the way you said it and the timing as is going into the pond... lol 17:50. Love the content my friend.

Glad the vids are flowing again!
You have a great sense of humor. Loved this video.
Thank you for this video.
I SUCKED today at the golf course, was quite depressed, but cheered up now thanks to your video.
Your a good man for sharing this round, helping all us wackers know we're not alone haha. These might not be your favorite to make but they sure are enjoyable. Way to keep it real EAL!
Welcome to town!!! Muny always kicks me in the teeth and the greens can be tough to read because most of the holes slope towards the lake. Your 2 putt on 6 that you though that was downhill is actually more uphill since you were putting away from Lake Austin.
Love the course vlogs! Very relatable round so far, think I hit every one of those spots too on my last trip around Lions!
Absolutely creasing at the shit in the house analogy on the 7th hole 😂😂😂 love these vlogs - important to laugh at the bad shots!
I loved this man! Not to see your suffering on the course but for your honesty. This is golf! keep up the strong work dude!
Kudos for showing this and having a laugh at yourself.
We still love you Erik!! Makes us feel better about are games.
EAL will be my spirit animal out on the golf course when I'm doing BAD
AND also when I'm feeling pure joy as well. (hitting the PERFECT driver, iron, wedge, 1 putt in succession)
eric may have not enjoyed the course but he enjoyed the commentary SO much and i love it
He's got a special voice and delivery IMO. You can't teach that.
Live in Austin and am playing here for the first time today. Dope video
I missed these videos so much! I have those mizuno mp20’s and they’re amazing when you hit a beautiful shot like your first shot. Sounds amazing and feels amazing.
🧈
“Second hole...four over par...” welcome to the club, my friend. We’ve been waiting for you.
Love these types of videos, keep em coming!
We’ve all been there! 😜 On the plus side, definitely you’re best commentary - a thousand quotable quotes 😂
Golf is hard! Mad respect to you for posting this and makes further content even better to injest. 👍🏾Thx
Thoroughly enjoyed this round from you. My LOFT issue persists! Thanks EAL!
So cool Muni is your new home course! I live a minute down the road off lake austin blvd. ill be keeping an eye out for you
see you around!
The commentary is top notch erik!
So great to have you here in Austin! The muni courses around here are pretty great/fun for muni. There's a few courses just outside Austin definitely worth visiting as well (Shadowglen and Plum Creek)

I dunno if it’s actually new but it’s new to me - the RGC animation at the beginning looks really awesome. And I’m really looking forward to the new shirt, really sick idea.
EAL, you’re the best. This is hilarious. Makes me wanna go play some golf.
Thanks for sharing this, so relatable.
You can do it Eric! I did this last week. First 9 hole I was playing golf with a pool noodle it felt like. (Back to Back cold tops with the driver. Oh yeah it was awesome). Then I turned into a tour pro on the back 9, it was amazing!
I love these videos, keep up the great work.
that grass really looks amazing. Everywhere here in pebble all the courses only have green grass so seeing that color is pretty cool
This is pure gold hahahahha favorite TH-camr
I did a whole lot of this just this past Monday at Muny. Thanks for making me feel better, Erik! haha
love your course vlogs!!!!
Fairway is lava...sir, that takes skill. Welcome to a very exclusive club. A club that has millions of members
I am most amazed by your tap in skills... the one handed just throw it in. Never seen u miss.
As somewhat of a beginner to this game with only a few rounds under my belt out at riverside I would say that just being out on the course bad shots and all is a joy. Once again thanks for showing us..... it’s ok. But I will say those few great shots I had do make you wanna dive into starting to practice and get better. #nokeepingscorefornow...lol
outstanding commentary
Got my RGC member kit today. Played 9 holes and had my best round to date. Must be the good mojo.

Lol your worst round is probably right on par with my great rounds. LOVE THE STUFF ERIK!
Thanks for the laughs! This one hits too close to home, I play with a lot of LOFT too.
Lions is almost always a fun yet humbling experience. Welcome to Austin.
Yo, Erik! I’m near Austin! Come on out west to the Hill Country! I’ll take you to some of my favorite courses that show what the TX Hill Country has to offer! Some awesome courses out this way.
Great video. Given, not great golf on this day but at least the commentary was below par. In a good way. Really funny. Well done. Enjoyed it.
Nice. I’m about 20 mins away and play lions often! If you ever head out to Hutto and want to play Star Ranch, let me know. Also, hit up Kissing Tree in San Marcos.
Can’t wait for the back nine, it’s way harder than the front. 16th hole is a beauty!
I played my first ever round there last year in June. Been absolutely hooked ever since. Make sure you visit Pool Burger afterwards next time!
Dude you are so cool, I love how you laugh at yourself. When u come to Dallas we need to hit the links together

When are these pull overs gonna be available?! Those a clean! 🧽!
Rule 17b in full effect! This makes the 48 I shot yesterday evening sting a little bit less. Thanks for sharing. Nowhere to go but up, right?
I feel this so much. Shot my best round ever three weeks ago. Now I have developed the shanks......this video helped me know its okay
I'm only on hole 3 and can't stop laughing! Not so much at the shots, I'd do the same, but at the narration...so entertaining.
OK, maybe a little at the shots....
Glad that you are back, really missed your style of vids, now life will be more bearable. Why the switch from TM to Mizuno......or is that going to be a podcast or another vid
The loft issue :))) made my day!
Erik you should swing down to San Antonio, once of the municipal courses (Brackenridge) is a Tillinghast design and the oldest public course in the state. The front 9 is all original as far as I know. I play twilights there to remind myself that I would die at winged foot.
"Frozen oversized pasta" on the course. Now I have to go play Lions muny
The L.O.F.T. joke caught me off guard whilst eating. Zinger! HAHA
Ahh man I feel ya. I recently had my worst round at RIVERSIDE GC a few weeks ago.
Whipped cream on shit! 😆🤣😂
This was gold... thank you Erik!
Shot tracker dude is working overtime for this vlog!!!! :-) I feel your pain Eric
Mizunos? What happened to the TMs?
He isn't with TM anymore. He said it wouldn't fit with RGC.
@@johanripplinger7897 Why's that? Too corporate?
@@BodhiGeraci Don't really know. He just said that on one of his Instagram stories. But I think it has more to do with the fact that RGC doesn't want to be an ambassador for other brands but be their own where everyone is accepted. Could also be something completely different ... this just makes the most sense to me :)
@@johanripplinger7897 thank you!
“I’ll give myself that one, huh?” 😂 always!
Can’t wait for the back nine! I appreciate you posting the good rounds and the whipped cream on shit rounds...it’s real life
Welcome to Texas BABY!!!
My mind is settled when I hear...." Alright folks..."
Oh man you got with “and they shit in your kitchen”.
hes back!!
My home course too. Awesome. Used to pick prov1s off the range that people shanked off 10
Dude, this is exactly my game right now as well. Like EXACTLY......well, except the greens at my course are still frozen, so they play about a 12 instead of a 5 (cape cod area).
I hope you gave yourself a break on the putting.....I think the rough at my course is faster than those greens, and everywhere I've seen you play have had nice zippy greens. Slow is tough.
Still some good golf in there somewhere, keep it going, great videos nonetheless
Ah, no spoilers Eric! LOL! Hope everything goes well in the future.
Where in Austin can you do stand up? If golf doesn’t support your lifestyle, stand up will. You are awesome EAL. In Austin next week, let me know where your gigging!!
Platitudes galore today!
PLEASE do more course vlogs 🙏🏻❤️
One of us! One of us!
excited !!!
"If you believe in God, that man came down and slapped my ball on the other side of the fairway" Im dead lol
