Another brilliant video. What a setting. Your course videos certainly get the juices flowing and already planning next year's trip to Scotland thanks to these reviews.
So much to enjoy about a good golf course even when you aren't hitting it well, but a well-timed sausage roll can make all the difference. Notice you didn't walk the course...that would be a chore and an accomplishment in itself. Great stuff Andy...
Have played the Boat several times and it’s always been a joy, irrespective of the golf played on the day. The course is beautiful in itself and the views of the surrounding countryside are simply spectacular.
I've only just found this playlist. OMG! Boat of Garten is my favourite course! Had the privilege if being a member for three years when I lived in Inverness, and play it when I go to Aviemore on holiday. It is tough, no flat lies and lots of weird bounces, but when you have the Cairngorms as your backdrop who cares?! Also saw your video of Fraserburgh. Easily the best links I've ever played, a must play IMO. Going up to that part of the world next week and will be playing Royal Tarlair - Scotland's answer to Pebble Beach, no exaggeration. These videos are utterly brilliant!!!
One of my favourite golf courses ever. Brilliant setting, thanks for reminding me !! I played in their Senior Open years ago so got on for £25 ! Three putted the first and it was downhill from there !! But fantastic setting !!
Great stuff Andy. Boat of Garten is a beautiful course in an absolutely beautiful area of Scotland. Grantown on Spey GC just down the road is another little gem.
Lov Boat - fabulous area and the course is amazing. Great Loch Garten. With Ospreys and rspb bird sanctuary- the birds feed off your hands. Great memories!!
Another exquisite video Andy and what wonderful weather you had . The ever elusive birdie would have been something to celebrate on that course. It , as you said looks particularly difficult. 😉🏌️♂️⛳️🍻
Great video once again my friend. I love how you look at golf courses for what they are.....beautiful, tough, desirable fairways and greens that cause great shots, some bad shots, ups and downs. But in the end you are there and enjoying every minute of the game! I love the views and the way you record the courses. You show everything that course has to offer with a touch or two of your honest truth about your game. Love it brother! Keep up the great work! And always remember....you are better then the next guy but also worse then the guy before you. It always keeps you humble yet still excited to play more. Keep up the great work! -J-
Looked like another beautifully presented course Andy and a challenging one too. You've been very lucky with the weather throughout your tour which is another bonus! Srixon might not be too enamoured with their product placement deal but M&S will be delighted! 😂
Played the course many years ago, fantastic.....then went on to Ganton on spey, another course in excellent condition, both well worth a visit again, great video
When David Attenborough retires Andy, I'm putting you name forward to National Geographic to become the narrator. Really enjoying these course vlogs, when all this covid stuff is over grab a plane ticket & come down under. Plenty of good courses this side of the world. Cheers mate
@@TheAverageGolfer is a tough test and you need a good ball striking day to do well. Was easier 2nd time round having a idea where I was going plus having a local with us. Hope you visited Cullen while in the Highlands Andy 🏌️♂️
Looks like a challenging, and beautiful course. I’m not sure if your wife took, and edited this video, but whoever did they did a wonderful job. Thanks again for such an enjoyable golfing video.
Feels like your part of the vlogs they draw you, great vlog Andy... And Scotland I'll say it again you have the best courses in the world, beautiful Course the set up looks fantastic it's got everything you would want in a Course.
Honestly Andy the vlogs draw you in and make you feel part of it plus makes you want to be there.....like the Slazenger Seve Shirt....class 👌⛳️ definitely see a Travel Company coming off there's a lot of courses I thought I wanted to play but the ones your playing are certainly expanding my bucket list, and thankyou because I know now if I want to play somewhere special all I need to do is check the page out, when you finish in Scotland I'd like to know were you rate them.
What a spectacular looking golf course. It definitely looks like a course you need to play a few times in order to determine your club selection. It seems like you didn't have your best day but at least you were on a great course so all's not bad. Great video. I look forward to each and every one.
Great photography and production quality again and your good lady is now giving golf lessons as well, is there no end to this woman's talents?! PS and that looks like a stunning Course!
Fantastic course, we had two rounds at Boat of Garten and a round at Spey Valley a few weeks ago (was meant to be in Portugal but decided for a staycation golf holiday instead!) Both courses in excellent condition, but The Boat sneaked my vote for the two. Super video again.
Played the Boat 30 years ago. A brilliant James Braid course one of his best. Not that difficult for an average player in my view. Buy some cheap balls or play old ones if your game is a bit inconsistent. It is a strategic course. Watch out for the odd Deer. One of my all time favourites,
Another stunning course, golf isn’t just about the challenge, it’s also for me about the beauty that can be found around a course. And that beauty can sometimes overcome the poor round you can have any day in the course!
If you are still around, you absolutely must play Spey Bay, it puts many so called great courses to shame. A difficult course where you cannot ever relax. Each hole requires full attention and concentration but play well and you know youve had a super round. Challenging and rewarding, oh did I mention the views.
As you are now in the Highlands I am guessing Dornoch is not really "less obvious" (fantastic course and one I would love to play again), any chance you have a video on Brora which I would love to try PS another superb quality video - this series deserves to be a massive success both for you and Scottish Golf
Are you still playing club medals? I presume you’re at Conway still .id like a end of season handicap/ how you’ve played review especially since lockdown and how the golf is working out. On Personel level post lockdown I was firing but as soon as comp reinstalled I went 💩 gone from 15 to 17. 16.2 new WHI 👍
Great course and enjoying the “tour” Andy- played most of the courses on a regular basis The Boat is a course where you need to map your way round rather than reach for the big dog at every hole Good to see Hector giving you a history lesson in the Aberdeenshire leg😀 - he is a gentleman
Been over 20 yrs since played it...as you say its v challenging partic if never played before...I stopped for game on drive back from Inverness late one Summer evening....it drove me nuts!!🤪
Lovely looking course, at least you get some great advice..slow your swing down. I take the better half out with me and the only advice I get is "just hit it" 🤷♂️
Great to see my local course getting some coverage. It’s a fantastic setting and a tough challenge every round.
Glad to showcase it

Golf should always be enjoyed regardless of score
Have recently found your channel and Wow! Loving the feel of the videos. Great photography and production. The Boat looked a tough challenge.
Your golf course vlogs are refreshing and inspiring to watch. Far more enjoyable than the relentless reviews of golf gear

Great vlog Andy - played there about 30 years ago when on holiday nearby. This brought back great memories of a beautiful course
Glad you enjoyed it
Something about "The Boat" that captures your heart. Not easy to capture that on a vlog but you managed it. Lovely film.
That pleases me thxs

Yes I agree great setting but I found it tough

Yes wished we had time to visit
Lov Boat - fabulous area and the course is amazing. Great Loch Garten. With Ospreys and rspb bird sanctuary- the birds feed off your hands. Great memories!!
It is a lovely part of the world Andy
Yep. That day was a highlight for me and my bro. Girls like the hotel for drinks and eats😀
Another exquisite video Andy and what wonderful weather you had .
The ever elusive birdie would have been something to celebrate on that course. It , as you said looks particularly difficult. 😉🏌️♂️⛳️🍻
Birdies hard to come by......and pars!
Living the dream with this series. Been a great watch but that course looked brutal and tight
Great video once again my friend.

These comments mean a lot
I too found where not to miss, playing my 1st and only round at the Boat in an Open a few years back 👌
Hahaha and there are a few!

Great cinematography.

Loving your Scotland series
All these courses are just stunning in their variety but all look sensational to play
Another great video, more like a mini documentary of the course, keep it up. 👍
Lovely golf course, great photography, and your golf didn't seem to bad!
I had to reload a few times....they didnt make the cut!
Great course and another great vid ! Thanks Andy
Thxs Mark
I love the course, Andy. Agree that you would need to play it a few times to get comfortable playing it.
Amazing Course, you have been picking some special ones.
When David Attenborough retires Andy, I'm putting you name forward to National Geographic to become the narrator. Really enjoying these course vlogs, when all this covid stuff is over grab a plane ticket & come down under. Plenty of good courses this side of the world. Cheers mate
Not sure I have the vocabulary nor the tone of Mr Attenborough but flattered all the same, would love to play the sand belt
Some beautiful views on that course. Not been up there to play for about 20 years.
Time for a return Joe
Really enjoyable series
Great track beautiful views. Played 36 in a day here couple years and loved the place. Up in the Highlands now my favourite
Breathtaking stuff, not sure I had enough balls for 36 though

My wife was on camera and I edit Ray, either way we are both grateful for your kind words
Have wanted to play it for a few years now. Had hoped to bag it this year but covid put the anchors on that. Always next year.
Its not going anywhere
Your video is stunning. The course looks in good nick but tough.
Thanks so much!

Look forward to all your videos...
Please do a witb for us!
Much appreciated and yes coming soon

Not sure the lesson worked though!

Like the seve sweater !!
Course I’ve never played and only heard good things about it !! Looks like a nice summers evening next year is on the list👌
I like you had heard so many positives about the course
Brilliant golf course. I Always make an effort to play it when staying in the nearby Aviemore.

I stayed in Dornoch but didn’t play it which was tough!! And no Brora I’m afraid but hopefully next time. Thanks for your comments re the series

I love these. Great job. Sure do miss some great courses being in the states. What irons are you using now?
Using the PXG GEN03

Lovely vid Andy.
Thanks 👍
Another quality course at BoG. You wouldnt want to play that with a bit of wind howling doon the Glen !!!
No it was tough enough dead still
Hi Andy, I’m interested as I’m sure many maybe what’s in you bag mate.
I’ve been asked that twice tonight so a video is due 👍
Played the Boat last year and really enjoyed it
Very pleasant place
Andy great video
Thanks 👍
His swing, that he worries a about, is a little over the top, like mine for example. But everything else about his work is excellence.
100%
I hope you consider playing Wick golf course
I would have loved to play Wick, it is on my bucket list but our schedule didnt allow this time around
We all have a bad day at the office Andy🏌👍
The word "flat lie" does not even come into play on this course. My goodness.....
