- Welcome back to Break Golf.
What golf did you play this weekend?
I played at Belton Woods Golf Club (Lakes Course) in Lincolnshire.
It was a blend of white and yellow tees - yardage for the 9 holes worked out around 3300 yards.
A lot tougher test than Lincoln Golf Centre - the highs and lows of a 12 handicap golfer continue.
Thanks for watching.
As an 11 handicap, I can resonate with a lot of these holes. Great production quality! Keep it up
Thanks Samu. Appreciate it. How often are you getting out to play?
@@golfonearthdxb I usually get one around a week in on average, and I work on my short game a couple times a week at home
Nice video. What's the tracer app you're using ?
It’s the shot tracer desktop app. Fantastic program.
This is the first of your videos that I’ve seen. I love this format! How long have you been playing? I started about 4 months ago with an old but good set of clubs. My best round is 20 over so far but generally I shoot in the high 90s low 100s. I’d love to learn from your journey. It’s hard to relate to some of the personalities on TH-cam who have thousands of dollars worth of gear and hit the ball distances that I would never dream of
Thanks Daniel, great to know you enjoyed the video. I've been playing since I was a teenager but never had any lessons.
I played in a yearly golf break and for three years in a row I was a 14 handicap and thought to myself - how have I not improved in three years? So I've had a string of lessons around 7-8 and it's transformed my game - it takes a while for it to translate over from the range to the course but it's coming. Hopefully should be able to shave a few shots of that handicap before Christmas.
If I'd offer any advice it would be to get some lessons, I'd guarantee your ball striking would improve a huge amount after a few sessions. Then I went out with my coach onto the course and that helped dramatically too.
Good to have you here Daniel and keep me updated on your journey - where are you from?
Yes I’m looking forward to keeping you posted! I am in Birmingham, AL. I’m about to go back to uni for a graduate program so I’ll have less time to play/practice but lessons are a big priority. I’m subscribed!
Subbed, liked and bell hit! Good luck with the channel👍Good delivery and well filmed. Think folk like the on course stuff best but I'm no TH-cam stats geek!
Should we expect lessons etc. in an effort to improve or what's the strategy to break par?
Thanks Iain appreciate the kind words. Yes a bit of a stats geek - always good to compare yourself to similar ability and the stats offer great evidence to where you are losing shots over the course of a round.
Can't promise any lessons as I'm not too qualified but will seek to offer advice on how I cut my handicap from high 20s down to 12 and hoping to go lower.
Great to have you here - how often are you playing?
I meant are you going to be filming yourself receiving golf coaching in an effort to improve further?!!
I’ll try and get out once a week weather permitting but it’s currently hammering down and 40mph winds here in Scotland so hardly makes you dying to hit the course 😂 I’ve got winter league matches most weekends this month though so will have to get on with it 🏌️♂️ Played a lot over the summer and had a great end to the season. Shot my best ever round and knocked 6 shots off my handicap which was nice.
Do you play at a club or different courses?
@@iainwyper9661 Oh sorry! Misunderstood there. Yes I plan to - stay tuned.
Any tips on hitting the driver straight ?
Still trying to figure that one out. But when I get it right I'm thinking less. Trying to get the club in line with the target on the way back down before impact is most important for me.
@@golfonearthdxb thank you great vid
@@cathaldooley27 thanks Cathal! Do keep in touch with your progresss
Ankles were freezing
