It's difficult to describe what a fabulous putt that was. Such a difficult green. And yeah, Paul knew it when it still had 15' to go!

Glad to hear you liked 'em. Always appreciate this type of feedback, thanks!

Thanks! I'll do more of it!

Haha thx. Got out on the course this week, although this footage was actually shot earlier this season.

Awesome. Easiest place to shave strokes!

It pulled a bit of Jekyll and Hyde act. It fell to piece son the back 9 (video link in the description)!

Awesome! His back 9 vid is 10x the video this one is.

Thanks!

Haha "whole" haha buttwhole hahaha

And the camera can't do justice to that green. Best holed putt I've seen this season.

Glad you enjoyed! I love this course - beautiful parkland track nestled amongst some old growth forest.

It's gotten considerably better since this round, too. He's grindin' hard!

Good golfer, great guy, greatest video editor. I love his vid documenting our back 9.

Crossover episode!

Thanks!

Good advice, here.

Unreal putt. That green is a nightmare.

Knows how to edit a video, too! The back-9 vid on his channel is aspirational for me as a creator.

Good advice here

Thanks!!

Yes! + the teebox is uneven. It's probably the most intimidating tee shot in Vancouver!

Glad you enjoyed, and hope you get out there soon!

Thanks!

Lol. And yeah, we're lucky to have this course in Vancouver.

Where can people get shirts like that? :p

Indeed! You free to get out before next Tues? Maybe we can finally make this happen!

@@NotAScratchGolfer the match the whole golfing world is waiting for!! Haha… unfortunately i am in SK and then in the UK for 3 weeks, back Mid Feb.. then we need to schedule this matchup :)

Going to troll Rick Shiels, Peter Finch, Matt Fryer and Danny Maude !! Haha!

@@BiGGolfTour Still there, eh?! Enjoy! And see you later this season. I'm taking off for California in a few weeks and returning in mid-March.

@@NotAScratchGolfer ha.. Road trip to Cali..??..hmm.. OK well if I dont make it there, see you in the summer!

I think he bags one at the moment.

Yeah, definitely a rare pure iron strike for me!

So good

Thanks :)

Punted his way to the golf course.

Small world! Paul's the man. Wish I could put together a video the way he does. I'd take his golf swing, too :p

@@NotAScratchGolfer Yea he does a great job with all his video editing. Enjoyed watching this. Looking forward to seeing more of your content too now that I found you.

One of the better putts I've ever seen. That green is a nightmare.

Haha when I shorten it up I tend to hit it worse. Have had a lot of pros try to fix a lot of things in my swing over the years (I stubbornly refuse to practice), and the consensus seems to be that the overswing is low on the list of things to address for whatever reason.

Unreal putt. Camera doesn't do it justice.

He did!

Thanks, Chris!

His putting is much much better than most rec golfers, and while his swing is not beautiful he hits the ball with a square clubface the vast majority of the time and knows his distances. His worst misses are fats with mid irons which add a stroke here and there. You can play good golf doing that.

Twinsies

See, this is the type of roasting I love!

You'd also still smash me in golf anyways 🤙 keep it up man

Glad you like 'em!

Yeah, we're so lucky to have it in Vancouver!

For sure! Blow up holes are so costly, and this vid highlights it for sure. Paul easily could have been under par on the front.

Haha yeah that's probably a channel first. Can't have it every day!

Hey Tom! I don't really like to practice, to be completely honest. It absolutely prevents me from becoming a much better golfer. It's a weird thing - I seem to dislike practicing as much as I love playing. And sorry to make an example out of you, but I think it's really important that amateurs get feedback from professionals and not other amateurs. The rare times I do take lessons, I always ask about my driver overswing, and every last time I've been told that it's extremely low on the list of things to change in my swing. It sure looks ugly, though :p

Yeah the course is tight in places. That tee shot on the 4th hole is very, very tough.

I can't decide whether to make this new WITB video. I'm basically of the opinion that my new fully fitted set of clubs didn't move the needle in my game whatsoever (not that I necessarily expected them to - I just thought it was time for a proper set of golf clubs). So I don't know if I want to play into the whole "here's why I got fitted and you should, too" thing. I might put up some pics in a Community post, though!

Ha!

Most rec players don't bag anything longer than a 5i these days.

@@ZiPolishHammer - True, but to be fair that doesn't make it a long iron. It makes it one of their longest irons. Long irons are typically 2-4.

@@ikigai47 I agree

The longest iron I carry is a 5-iron (which probably has the loft of a traditional 4-iron), so tough to say how to best classify my set's 6-iron...

And he took all of his video editing talent to the new channel, too!

Much appreciated!

I see it's there! I don't know how KZfaq works apparently

Cordova Bay is awesome

@@WineandBrew This is pretty accurate.

Is that so? lol

Haha yea. I think it will improve his game 😂

Not sure if serious :p

I’m serious

@@Ryan_Golf Well thank you sir

Hey, man! Stay tuned. We're still pouring through survey results (200+ responses on the first day). We'll have some more info by months' end!

@@NotAScratchGolfer I knew that was coming! Insane!! Hope all is well, great golf.

Credit to my homie Milt for teaching me that one

I think it was in August IIRC

Yes!

Good question.
