    Where there were rolling dunes and wasteland, there's now a collection of rolling verdant fairways, deep bunkers, wispy rough and inviting, sloping greens with their traditional heartbreaking run-offs.
    Against all the odds, Phillips has created a modern classic and the par-72 layout, which plays to a maximum of 7,450 yards, is endowed with nine holes that dramatically hug the coastline, while all 18 holes boast views of the shoreline making it one of the best courses to play in the UAE.
    Multiple teeing areas make all this enjoyable for most golfers.

    Love Kyle Phillips designs. Have played Dundonald lots which if you are nasty is a poor man's Kingsbarns but in my book certainly holds it's own. One of the more fun courses you can play up in Scotland even though the views obviously cannot compare to KB..

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeh I've played Dundonald too and agree it's a great track!

  • @nicted9308
    @nicted9308 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes a tough golf course and with the slope system coming to the UK I'm sure you would at least gain a couple of shots on this course. I live in Spain and at my home course I have to play off 7 and my handicap is 10 but you gain shots on a course that is classified tough. I have to say I'm not a lover of this system but it is more of a leveler than the currant system looking forward to your next video.

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cheers Nic...yeh looking forward to seeing what the new system is all about and how much if an effect it will have! Thanks for watching bruh!

    #legend watching you play golf, the course is of little importance pretty sure I will not be jetting off to Abu Dhabi anytime soon.

    Magic Rory , Yes !!

    Rory Are the finishing holes from 15 to 18th the hardest you’ve ever played on? As an Ex member , can say it was pure torture , usually into wind and a scorecard killer. Loved it and deserves to be one of the best in the world.

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They defo are off the tips bruh. Hardest finishing stretch I've ever played? Royal Cinque Ports for sure...basically the entire back 9 plays into the wind (proper links course so wind can be brutal) and some holes are like 500 yard par 4s off the backs. 😮

  • @robbiles
    @robbiles 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Rory. I haven't been watching this for your golf since the second hole in Part 1. LOL. We've all been there. Regarding handicap and your points. Down Under the new World Handicap system came in to effect on the 30/1/20. I gained a shot under it but lost a shot off it at my home course because it's slope rating changed. Basically no change at all. Do you have the same new system in the UK, Have you checked your 'new' handicap? and what was the slope rating and subsequent handicap off the blues? Just calculated my handicap if playing there and it would be 2 better then my base.

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      No idea re the new handicap system bruh. Need to drag my a**** down to my home club and play in a tournament soon! Course has been closed a fair bit recently though...UK winter kinda stuff.

  • @alangibson4499
    @alangibson4499 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Have you changed your putter? looks better

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope. Had that bad boy in the bag for a couple of years now and no plans to change.

  • @andrewjohnston5942
    @andrewjohnston5942 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’d still have played that first ball on 17. Great finishing stretch. Shame you only had time for 12, but great vlog.

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha that would be cheating Andy. 😉Just want to be as transparent as poss with you guys.

    • @andrewjohnston5942
      @andrewjohnston5942 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your Golf Travel some good shots sir. We all have off days. Maybe that course is in your head?

  • @Jaywil765
    @Jaywil765 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video Rory , what is your handicap ?

  • @bhall3760
    @bhall3760 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Rory have you compared your handicap under the new world handicap system as I would have thought you would get at least an extra two shots on such a tough course?

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not up to speed on that system yet Brian I have to admit. Will wrap my head around it soon enough I'd imagine.

    The round building is called “HQ” building, formerly the Aldar HQ.

  • @shrimpflea
    @shrimpflea 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great course! I want you to play well but if you don't it's fine..It makes me feel better than I'm not the only one that struggles. People that don't rake bunkers, replace divots or fix pitch marks should be fined :)

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      They should be rounded up and thrown into the sea haha. Horrible people.

  • @ianhenderson713
    @ianhenderson713 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You get them told boss !!!

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      They need a talking too. Raking bunkers is a pain in the hole, but c'mon...let's have some respect for eachother hey? Reflects poorly on the course and that's totally not fair! 😡

    • @ianhenderson713
      @ianhenderson713 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I,m only thinking of you Rory...you visit them enough to ! 😂 just joking my man

  • @MrElpesto44
    @MrElpesto44 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ano it’s a corse vlog video but seeing as you are having a bad round you should ditch the corse and show some more area videos 👍

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not really the way it works. I'm there to show you guys the golf course who kindly host me in exchange for the videos. 👍

    • @MrElpesto44
      @MrElpesto44 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      True but would be funny if you cut straight to bar with the remarks “I’ve fucked it off .... this is my third pint. “ 😅

    You cursed yourself on the first tee. I've always thought golfers should take a golf etiquette class before they ever step on a course.

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha yep! Not sure what is wrong with people who don't rake bunkers...oh yes...I am...they're selfish so and sos! 😂

  • @brianhunter4714
    @brianhunter4714 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    scared me to death, not sure how much pleasure I would get

    • @yourgolftravel
      @yourgolftravel  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha it was a tough test for sure! Definitely playable though from the correct tees...just got to hit those greens Bri!
