Hi my name is Dan, I'm a South African living in the UK.
I make golf videos around the world, showcasing some of the best courses as well as hosting some amazing guests.
If you would like to see any particular course or guest on the channel please let me know in the comments of any of my videos.
All the best,
Dan
Love the video Dan! Keep them coming!
Thank you bud, really appreciate that 👍 lots in the tank for you guys 👌
best of luck Dan!!
Soooo encouraged by your first hole. Here a golfer I can sympathise with!!
Thank you Nic, very much appreciated 👍👍
haha, I'm here for you man!!
Great stuff Dan! If you ever get to Portugal let me know and we’ll do a vlog together 👌
Will defo take you up on that bud, been wanting to play there for a long time 🏌️🏌️
@@thespringbokgolfer yeah do it, see you soon then ✌🏻
Love the content! I just started playing golf in September and it’s nice to see good honest golf. I’ll be watching for the long haul.
Hey bud thanks for the comment, really appreciate the support. Lots of content on the way for you👍
Those greens are gorgeous. What's a round cost for a course like that in the UK?
Chris is one of the best greenkeepers around. Surfaces are always top draw. This sort of course would normally be around £35 - £50 a round. Top courses anywhere from £85 to £350
@@thespringbokgolfer That's remarkable; here in California a sub-par muni (pun intended) would be around $75 - $90 (£70 - £83) and a course with greens of this caliber would probably be significantly more. Keep up the good work, I quite enjoyed this video. My only suggestion would be to maybe get a windscreen to stick over the microphone on the camera.
@@HerrMez wow that's really pricey. I've just been home to South Africa and filmed at some really Stellar courses. With the exchange rate it was about £50 a round, so the exchange rate is where it's at 🤣 thanks very much for the feedback, have the rode shotgun mic with a deadcat on now but will soon move to the rode lapel mics 👍
All in all pretty good job. The wind is an occasional sound problem,but not too off putting...There is a lot of competition out there in YT golf,find something unique to stand out......good luck with the channel...
Hi Chris, thanks for the input. Ya at the time didn't even have a mic but now onto a rode shotgun mic and even that's not to my liking so will end up going the lapel route I think. Definitely got a unique lane which will become more apparent in time. Thanks very much for the feedback 👍👍
It takes some getting used to playing in front of the camera but also deal with all the faff that goes with it. Give us a shout in the spring / summer. Come and play with me around one (or more) of the courses at Frilford Heath.
Hi Graham, thanks for the comment. Definitely does take some getting used to. Really appreciate the offer, I'm only down the road at Hadden Hill so not far. Will give you a shout👍 let me know where's best to get in touch
curious why you left S.A. I hear it has become a dangerous collapsing society...is this true?
I left originally on gap year and then stayed until now (10 years ish) as I got work and just got a bit stuck really. I definitely wouldn't say it's a collapsing society. Lots of SA is just so beautiful and very cheap if travelling with pounds euros etc. It is more dangerous than for eg the UK but it's just requires a little more Street smarts. I am hoping to spend more time in Cape Town filming as the channel grows. If you love golf, it's a paradise 👍
picture quallity is great sound is awful. i was hopefull but i am out, i dont enjoy watching pretty average golf but some may. i would look for a scratch friend and partner up.
I’m actually curious as to why you think your opinion matters?
@@jaysimms2648. Where did I say my opinion mattered. I didn’t but the creator asked for opinions, how can he create a product that works in the space without honest reactions. The film quality was great but the sound needs a lot of work. He’s not a great golfer so adding a partner may make the product more enjoyable. Watching a guy play bogie golf on his own is probably not going to work imo.but jay if your feelings got hurt I guess we’re both going to have to live with that❤️
Hey Mark thanks for the feedback, appreciate the points made. Lots of work done on the swing for the last 6 months and still going so hope to bring you back in at some point. All the best mate
@@thespringbokgolfer The swing is a never ending process. Iam 63 and my exact is 3.5 and I still have lessons. Work hard.
@@thespringbokgolferI wouldn’t take his opinion to heart. I think this content targets a lot of people as you’re a decent golfer and people enjoy watching relatable golf.
