Can we break 85? - EVERY SHOT IN 19 MINUTES
A round of summer golf at Prestatyn golf club in North Wales. It's a par 72 championship links course that was founded in 1905.
The green fees were £25 for 18 holes after 3pm in June 2022.
I'm James, a golfer with a dodgy swing now playing off an 13 handicap. I had taken 4 golf lessons to improve my swing on the day of play.
I'm looking to continuously break 90 on the courses I play. Even if I don't shoot a good score I always enjoy strolling around the fairways of North Wales, UK :-)

Mate, you’re such an inspiration. I’m relatively new to the game, and I’m documenting my game, and mainly struggles on my TH-cam channel, but I love watching your videos so much. They give me hope that I can one day get as low as you, even if that seems extremely far away at the moment. Well done on your progress, and keep the videos coming. Love watching them 👍🏻
You can do it! Notice how he doesn't hit a long way, but goes for accuracy first. Learn to pitch, chip, and putt and you'll be shooting mid 80s before you know it. Good luck.
Really like your channel mate, the improvement in your game is really impressive.
Very steady golfer with a positive attitude, great to watch especially as you’re playing local courses too!
A masterclass in steady golf- a joy to watch! Break 80 soon?!
Congrats from California! Your videos have undoubtedly made me a better golfer. Currently a 21 handicap after about 7 months, much credit to you
James I cannot believe how much you have improved, you are becoming an inspiration to my golf. Love all the content really look forward to your vlogs. Keep it up James and well done.
Hello from Texas, US. Watching your videos over the last several months has given a guy like me hope for improvement. Keep improving and keep posting videos.
Yes sir
So MANY shortish birdie putts! Just great James.
Wow!! I was holding my breath for you on that last hole! Shame! Cracking round though James. Well played again sir!👍👍🏌️🏌️
Great round James, you seem to be getting more distance with your shots, a wonderful 250 yd drive and some good 7 irons. Your course management was brilliant. Aways brilliant to watch
Those 8 GIR's really stand out on your score card. Fantastic round Mr Steady-as-she-goes!
Congratulations James. I’ve felt that has been coming and you played so well. Shame about the last hole but tough pin position as you say. I hope to emulate this score later this afternoon! Thanks for keeping up the content. Very enjoyable
Irons looking great, my friend. Been thinking about you a lot when on the course. Broke 100 for the first time in 5 years this week on a tough course and had a few shots that made me think about your videos. Cheers. I appreciate the inspiration.
Another great video James. Congrats on your great score and ignore the naysayers. Keep enjoying your rounds as you continue improving your game.
Well James, I finally broke down and played some actual golf 3 days ago. First time in about 4-5 years. I've mentioned before how terrible I am.
My goal was to shoot triple bogey or better on each of the 9 holes I played. I didn't come anywhere close to that goal, shooting several quadruple and quintuple bogies.
But, somehow I did manage to actually get a par on the very last hole, which was insane. I even got on the green in 2 and had a birdie putt (albeit VERY long).
Anyway, as expected I did terrible, but it was an experience nonetheless.
Looking forward to watching you do much better in this video.
FYI, my score was 60 on 9 holes, and par was 36, so I was 24 over par on 9 holes. Yeah, I REALLY suck at golf.
The only way us up bro. Keep going.
@@rangerofthenorth2850 Normally I would agree with you, but I used to play a LOT more golf when I was younger, and I've actually gotten worse at golf as time has gone on, not better.
I used to be able to shoot in the 80's (on 18 holes, par 72 course), now I couldn't shoot under 100.
So, while I'm not trying to be argumentative, at least in golf I have found myself progressively getting worse as time has gone on.
In all other sports, yes I have improved over time, but golf is in a different category (or as James would say, "Golf is a funny old game").
Thanks for the comment.
Love watching your vids mate. Youve well improved over time. I play off 8 and am well impressed with your course management at times. Well done
Great round and your Driver was spot on. When you said easy pw on number 18 I thought to myself don’t hit it fat. That’s my specialty to decelerate on those type of shots😡! Thanks for the wonderful videos.
Great work James. Showing that you dont have to try to bomb the ball to score really well. Just one hole from a magnificent round.
Your confidence is helping your game, and your game is helping your confidence. Well done James!
Wow - it really helps when you play well off the tee; it's a big key to this game I reckon. Fabulous round - WELL DONE JAMES!
Outstanding round and your analysis was spot on! Congratulations and happy days!!!
Well done James,what a fantastic round!your ball striking has really improved really consistent finding the fairway a lot which helps your approach play.what a pity about the 18th.I find myself rooting for you and those missed putts or when you maybe over hit a putt I’m thinking oh no!almost as if I am playing the round with you.It’s a great watch and I think a lot of your subscribers feel the same way.thanks for taking the time and effort putting these videos up.again well done.
Damm that last hole. Well done
So cool to see how much you’ve improved. You make it look so easy now! Class mate
Superb round! You're really dialing it in. Swing looks great
Fantastic round James. Well done.
Well done James, great consistency!
Smooth and steady. Love it.
Wow - great round of golf - trying to improve like you have - great to see thanks
Good stuff. A great round of golf with very good course management to not take driver off all the short par 4s. Keepem comin. 👍
Buzzing for ya pal. Outstanding round!
Wow very nice indeed! Enjoyed watching it as much as it seems you enjoyed playing. Good drives, good iron approach shots, very nice chipping, and you adjusted to the pace of the greens. It's amazing the synchronicity of playing well and enjoying yourself. Staying in that moment and keeping it going is the key. Keep it going mate!
you made that look easy,alot off thick rough on the course, a pleasure to watch,well done👍
Great video James. Very good camera work and very good audio. Always look forward to your next round!
Every round is showing improvement James. Today the driver was really a game changer for you.
Had to like and subscribe this one James, always look forward fri lunch break where I watch your videos. That’s the best round I’ve ever seen you play well done. Pressure of a good score got you in the end. Keep up the good golf!
Nice round, very well played around Prestatyn. I’ve been lucky enough to play there a few times on golf trips and know how difficult it can be - not an easy track. Good to see they have tidied up the rough as it’s quite tight especially on the home run down the railway line. I’m there again May 2023 and I’m hoping I can channel your round. Great to watch a relatable golfer play a course I know. Will definitely keep an eye out for your videos 👍🏻
Cheers mate, I really like playing Prestatyn the course just flows nicely. Luckily the wind wasn't blowing on this day! 👍👍
Unlucky on the 18th matey, but those thoughts of a "79" can't help but intrude. Well done on breaking the 85 and keep those videos coming👍👍
Wow! What a great round! You were playing great! Congrats!
Hi, after getting back into Golf after 5 years off, I have joined Caernarvon GC and had a few lessons and and after 6 practice rounds the best score so far is 97!Not exactly Ryder cup Scoring but im on the way! Keep up the great golf & Videos.
Very well played James, excellent golf ⛳.
Well done mate. Keep it up 👍
omg James Gutted for you on the 18th so many lip outs well played mate
Your game has improved so fast. Really impressive love the videos keep it up!
Great round!!!!!! Congratulations 🎊 👏
Love the improvement looking forward to playing more myself
Congratulations, that was a great round on a challenging course!!!!
Congrats on breaking 85! Great round! Very close to breaking 80!!!
Great round mate, keep swinging!
Thanks for The Content James. WoW great iron play and 10 holes even or better is some really good golf.
Amazing round James, well done 👍
Well done!
It amazes me the distance you get with half swings. Shows practice really does pay off
You're playing So Well! The 7iron on the 5th was great, as was the up & downs on 10 and 13. When I started watching your channel, I felt my scores were lower, but you've for sure improved your game to the point where I'd fall behind you on any day.
Living The Way of the Playa, you are.
Great round James !
Getting consistent now James, great round!
Fantastic golf there your greatly improving
Unbelievable James how your play is still increasing. Unfortunately a triple bogey on the 18th, but it was a very good round. I enjoyed it very much. Boudewijn
Great round. Lovely day. Brilliant vid. Thanks
Thanks 👍
Brilliant James,just a wee blip at the end,plenty of thumbs up from you so it’s a thumbs up from me to 👍🏻
nice score! keeping it in play off the tee is one of my main challenges. you had very good tee balls.
Great round well done very much improved from your first game
Very good round James
Great round bummer about 18th.
Just come back from a golfing trip to North Wales. Back up again with the missus in August and got plenty of ideas of courses too play from your channel
Loving the vlogs
been watching for a few months now and I can't recall you playing a bunker shot gg relaxing watch as per usual 👍
great round!
Well done. Very nice round of golf.
You seem to be very much in charge and controll of your game.
Despite the last hole you played really well. Well done. You also proved your capable of breaking 80.
Super round James, at this rate you'll be turning pro soon 👍⛳
Excellent progress James. I think Open qualifying may be closed now but never mind, you’ll be ready for next year 😉
Great round James. Playing well and with great consistency. I usually tail off to the end as the tiredness takes hold. A bit more work on the putting and you'll be under 80 no problems. Well done.
Love the channel.and I like the way you give the thumbs up when you hit a good shot.i just subscribed.thanks
I love seeing you handicap go down every other week, You have very good course management and it shows you don’t need a prestige swing to card good scores(no offence, my swing is much worse tbh as I have screws in my right arm) keep up the good work lad! the single digit handicap isn’t far away =)
Cracking round
Great score James, well played. Is that another cut to your handicap? 👏
Very nice round..
9 pars and a birdie is good golf. Well done.
Well done bud 👏 shame about the 18th though. First time watching you and I enjoyed it cheers 🍻
What driver do you use? Love the vids.
great par on 10 too.
i need to get to wales to boost my confidence for sure
Love Prestatyn, Until I get to the back 9! Such a hard stretch of holes 😂
Great round. Just brilliant, but sad about the 8 on the last.😻😻⛳️
Who’s saying you don’t play difficult courses? If memory serves me correctly you’ve played Prestatyn, North Wales GC & Conwy all at least twice, all absolute beasts on their day!
Excellent round James 👏 👏
Single figure handicapper soon?? The way you're progressing it is a real possibility!
So good with your irons. Also no idea how you manage to drive 230 yds with a driver with a three quarter backswing... but it works nice and straight, i'd give up 30 yards to be as straight as that. Keep it up.
You really have improved your flushing everything. Question do you play from the Front tees or the middle
I think he plays from yellow tees - which in the UK is usually between the forward and back tees. And playing off 13 is a little cheeky to still be playing from those tees. IMHO, the lower your hdcp, the further back you should be playing otherwise you're not really playing the course designed for your ability.
Great round!
If I were you,I would retake that chip on 18 as it is just unfair having someone shutting the door on you
Great round.
Common thinking is you either count all the way round or only at the 19th.
Never, ever stand on 18th and do what you did. Lady Karma will call you out.
Great video 👍
Nice round. Too bad about 18, but you came through. Cheers!
Great round James, I do think you put extra pressure on yourself on the last hole by trying too hard to break 80, maybe you just got ahead of yourself a little, most of us have been there before, I know I have !! Cheers.
Closest I’ve came to breaking 100 is 102, I’ve been golfing for a little over a year now. I’m getting extremely close!
Nice vid mate, course looks very forgiving…bit to open plan for me, not very challenging but nice shots none the less.
It's a links course so without the wind it doesn't have much teeth. When it blows any hole could be a card wrecker! Thanks for watching :-)
Great round, despite the finishing hole.
I have watched your game improve. I would recommend that you take the flag out on putts under 15 feet to improve your chances of holing out. Also find a practice putting green and work on your distance control ask I feel this is an area where you are struggling. Keep up the good work.
Why doesn't this channel have more subs?
So James one thing I’m confused about is you said the yardage that we see includes the roll out but on hole 5 you had 174 and hit it 160 but you were only like 3 feet short so you only include rollout on drives?
Great round! Golf is a hard game. One or two less bad shots and a couple of made short puts and you would have had a great round.
5.01 great shot.
