Iona you are epitome of intelligence, humour and class. You have an incredibile ability to make the person you are speaking to relax into the moment and reveal truths they perhaps hadn’t thought about. The gold standard of sports interviewer. 👏👏
So, there I was thinking do I really want to sit through over an hour watching a putting lesson and then when it finished I wished it was at least double the length! Absolutely fascinating.
@@ronmonks6325 that’s a big task but I believe they could handle it with ease. A perfect lesson and interview with two charming, delightful and intelligent people. The world needs more Iona’s and Brads
Brad is the kind of teach one would want for golf, or any other subject on the planet. He is diligent, focused, knowledgeable, encouraging, positive and genuinely wants a student who is or will be better leaving than when she arrived. How great is that. A superb episode. Iona, I think you have already separated yourself from the pack to become the premier golf announcer/content provider.
Utterly Brilliant ❤ As a 46 year old Australian lad who fell in love with this beautiful game at the age of 11. I tip my hat to this man not only for his exceptional endurance and top end ability as a player and now an exceptional mentor but, how in the 1990's to 2000's actually came to Australia in supporting out local tour... Not many PGA pros made the effort to play our beautiful courses..(they still don't 🤦) Brad did! Bloody legend for doing so and many kids at the time took something from it. Thus is probably why we have been second to none in supporting LIV and its commitment in bringing top end players to our country however, I digress. Thanks for yet again one well produced and most entertaining and educational production young lady. Happy hitting all ❤⛳️🇦🇺❤
Not that this video really NEEDS another comment regarding its incredible vibe and value but here I am giving kudos to the post production team for keeping or setting the vibe with the wonderfully subtle tone. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow, Brad Faxon's really nailing it in this video. The guy's got such a chill vibe when he's coaching - super laid-back but dropping some serious golf wisdom. You can tell he knows his stuff, but there's zero ego. Just good, solid advice without any fuss. Big props to Iona and the crew for putting this out there. It's awesome to see a pro like Faxon sharing his tricks of the trade in such a down-to-earth way. Whether you're struggling with your swing or just looking to up your game, this video's got the goods. Faxon's approach is like that cool teacher you always wished you had - the one who makes learning feel easy and fun. If you're into golf and want some top-notch tips without the stuffy attitude, definitely give this a watch.
Ahh . . . My Scottish friend chatting with the “guru” of my weakness. Tea in hand for the “schooling” I’m about to receive. Kudos to your crew for bringing out the very best of exceptional people. I’m only 10 minutes in and my heart beat is a calm 56 strokes per minute . . . resting on every word spilling across your tongues. You two have made a great day better. What a “peach”?!!! Thank you for sharing your gifts with us in North Carolina! Best wishes to your Open Qualifying efforts!!!
Iona metaphorically smashes it over the netting at the back of the range. A sublime mix of technical and personal focus woven into an engaging whole. Good work again Iona.
I'm not a golfer but I played other sports to a reasonable level. The fact that I listened intently to this content for a full hour is a testament to you both. Thank you.
The best golf content around…so natural and not full of bs. Iona, it must’ve been gutting when you gave up pro golf till now but you really have a gift for presenting and broadcasting. See you at St Andrews for the ladies Open, Mo, Inverurie
This is a very nice video, not only for the putting tips but just because it’s an intelligent heartfelt conversation between two decent people. Thanks,
Iona, That was an absolute joy to watch. There were some great tips in there. What an interesting person Brad Faxon is. You and your team make some outstanding content that we all enjoy and look forward to watching, so thank you for sharing it with us.
This might be some of the best golf content on UA-cam. Thank you for giving us a chance to hear from people as influential and skilled as Brad and yourself, Iona!
Watching this was an hour well spent. Brad is super knowledgeable, and Iona is always a pleasure to listen to. Would love to get 18 holes with you Iona and pick your brains on all things golf, life and the universe !
Iona, where have you been? I was not familiar with your name and just by chance I came-across your website. Iona, to add to your mastery of explaining and teaching golf you are the brightest star in the sport. Every golfer from junior to professional should be required to watch your videos to learn what it means to not only be a star but more important to the game and all other sports what it means to be humble. No big ego, no attitude. Just an everyday man or woman. Iona, you are a delight. An outstanding interview. You make the interviewee comfortable and relaxed and you have the ability to pull info out that they would prefer to have hidden.
Without a doubt the best video I’ve seen in golf. Iona really has the skill needed for this. It’s a real shame we never got to see her compete professionally, but we do get to see her UA-cam and tv work….excellent video and I also like Brads approach, it seems so natural.
Run out of words to try and describe how good your Vlogs are, just seem to get better and better. Thank you so much for giving me an hour of pure enjoyment, it was fun and informative, a touch of seriousness, made me smile lots and all I can say is borrow one of your favourite words and say yet again Phenomenal.
This is so good iona.... I've not made it past Brad talking about putting yet.... just have it on loop... I love your reactions as well when Brad says something and your brains ticking over.... so so good... 🏌♂️⛳💚 this is like the butch or scotty one i will need to watch it 10 times and still get something new out of it....
Without doubt and by a long long way the best video you have done and you have done some great ones. I have sent this to all my golfing mates. So instructive and useable by and for the average golfer. More of these PLEASE !!!!
This is the best golf video I have seen by far🙏Thanks Iona and Brad for the relaxade, open and generous attitudes. Golf instruction is about demystifying and making the difficult understandable. This is what this video did 👍
Really enjoy the format mix of relaxed sit-down interview + lesson. Not a quick 10min video. It felt good to take the time. Very unique from what I've seen, well done!
You have so many wonderful interviews....it's incredible: the editing of the interview with the lesson footage....brilliant!! Brad Faxon is a gem - I thank him for all he's brought to the game and respect his openness in this interview. Thanks so much for being you and bringing this incredible Emmy award worthy coverage to us!❤
Iona! You have a gentle and kind intelligence that speaks volumes about how you are as a person and a professional. You are also willing to share a vulnerability about yourself that we as golfers can all find relatable. I will follow Brad's advise as you organically find your place here on UA-cam and the rest of the golfing world. Just know that you and your talents are truly appreciated. Thank you! : )
You're one of the best putters I've seen in UA-cam golf space. You rarely miss from 5 feet and in on your videos. I'd be thrilled to have your consistency.
Truly delightful. Brad is such a gentleman and a true putting guru. Just love this content. Iona, I just love watching your interviews. You ask such great questions. Bravo 👏.
Brad Faxon, legend! The look on your face at the end of the video after the putt that fell (1:00:23), priceless! Brad’s verbal, coaching throughout is so professional, smooth, and on point. Great video! MD
What a wonderful pair of professionals you both are. Engrossing, delightful chat and teaching on show, beautifully edited I imagine. Thank you all so much. Again. Great team.
I am blown away by this video, so much info and Brad really broke down the process, really awesome content, and Iona is so infectious, she brings so much positivity to these videos, all involved make them so watchable 👍👍
That, was just a brilliant insight into putting, played 60 years, never heard it explained in such depth, Iona is great at interviewing, lets the person talk.
Iona you and your team knocked it out a gem 🎉 such skill and interesting viewing keep up the excellent work / fun … Oh thanks for all the great tips now off 9 handicap down to the UA-cam community and of course you ..
I don't think I have ever listened to a video as intently as this one.... And could not believe I had done so for over an hour.... What more could anyone want on a Monday afternoon but to lose themselves in pure bliss..... Iona I will be watching for your new set up now on everything you post... Great stuff Lassie.
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this. Iona is such a natural person and Brad Faxon is a great coach - his advice is so simple but insightful. A really good video, well edited and filmed. Thank you.
Thanks Iona, enjoyed your time with Brad Faxon...and glad you will use some of his tips going forward...I know I will be using his tips with my putting.
Love Brad and has been my icon through my whole golfing career/time. Watch all his videos and remember watching him heaps back in the day...throw in Iona and its a perfect combination for the perfect putting tutorial. Thanks You Both.
You most certainly have the porridge Iona lol. On a serious note this is my favourite video of yours and I’ve seen them all. You are so incredible presenting I’m sure mainstream tv will / has come a calling. All I ask is PLEASE when they do don’t stop making these videos. You are an exceptional presenter x
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant! Ever since Brad flew over and qualified for The Open back in the day, I have always admired him as a golfer and as a person. Add in a great interview - what a great video. 🏴🏴🏴
This is golf gold......Fax is the man re putting and Iona is very good presenter who just keeps getting better the more natural she in in front of the camera.
Impressed? You are impressive Iona, content that hits golf interest while adding golf know how for us club players needing all the help we can get 😂 Thanks again
Iona this video is fantastic. Thank you so much for the putting lesson from Brad. It is definitely the weakest part of my game and adds so many strokes to the final result. Great content.
That was an amazing hour of my life! I so enjoyed it and learned much too. Lots to go practise later today. And so peaceful and thoughtful. Thank you both very much!
Iona you are epitome of intelligence, humour and class. You have an incredibile ability to make the person you are speaking to relax into the moment and reveal truths they perhaps hadn’t thought about. The gold standard of sports interviewer. 👏👏
That comes from being a great listener. Investing her energy and attention and the interviewers feel that energy.
Lots of great ideas we can all use, thanks 😊
Honestly you could say the say thing about Brad
Knowing Iona would make anyone a better person
So, there I was thinking do I really want to sit through over an hour watching a putting lesson and then when it finished I wished it was at least double the length! Absolutely fascinating.
If all people were like Iona and Brad, there would be no problems in the world.
World leaders
@@ronmonks6325 that’s a big task but I believe they could handle it with ease. A perfect lesson and interview with two charming, delightful and intelligent people. The world needs more Iona’s and Brads
That's racist. White Supremacist much?
There probably wouldn't be anything other than putting coaches and TV presenters though which wouldn't work out very well😂
@@Butlins14Yeah. Not much would get done 😂
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. They’re both incredibly interesting and make a great team.
Brad is the kind of teach one would want for golf, or any other subject on the planet. He is diligent, focused, knowledgeable, encouraging, positive and genuinely wants a student who is or will be better leaving than when she arrived. How great is that. A superb episode. Iona, I think you have already separated yourself from the pack to become the premier golf announcer/content provider.
Watching your interviews is like enjoying a fine meal paired with a fine wine. Thank you Iona!

Best putter in the world and the genuinely loveliest woman in the world. Great video.
Just so good. Your reaction to that last putt brought tears to my eyes. So nice seeing someone succeeding so gracefully :)
Absolutely brilliant,that is really instructional as well as being an interesting chat. Iona knocks it out the park....again
Iona is a wonderful interviewer. Enchanting.
Thanks for exposing the world to these wonderful minds Iona
Iona, i could watch you and Brad talk about golf all day!
Watching this was an hour well spent. Brad is super knowledgeable, and Iona is always a pleasure to listen to. Would love to get 18 holes with you Iona and pick your brains on all things golf, life and the universe !
What a wonderful, interesting watch. 2 very lovely people - humble, professional, gentle.

Great coaching lesson and obvious why he is viewed as one of the world's best. Thanks for sharing Iona - from Paisley
Fantastic video. Brad makes everything so simple. Felt great seeing you make that last putt, Iona!
Great watch. If there’s a better golf content creator than Iona out there , I’ve not found them yet !

Love this content, a great mix of education and getting to know Brad Faxon. That hour went by fast.
Wonderful video. I, too, felt that "something neurological" happened with my putting grips I went with the same grip as Iona. Feels much better.
Brilliant! One of the best interviews and great insights. Will add this to my favorites and watch over and over. Great stuff Iona.
Really enjoy the format mix of relaxed sit-down interview + lesson. Not a quick 10min video. It felt good to take the time. Very unique from what I've seen, well done!
Love these interviews. You really drill into the essence of the person, who they really are. Was like this with Butch Harmon as well. Unreal
Another magnificent interview. Cannot get enough of this content, congrats Iona and Brad. Cannot wait to hit the greens
That’s one of the most enjoyable hours i have spent in ages!!!!
To BOTH of you - The very BEST video ever!!! 🙏👍🙏 Keep them coming please Iona.
Super Vid Iona, I watched Faxon growing up, such a lethal putter, and to listen to the science and detail coupled with natural talent is enlightening
You again knocked it out of the park with this one....loved it. Thank you, Iona.

Worth the free subscription? 😂

Thank you Iona, that was bloody marvellous, Brad is so good, he doesn't ram it down your throat

There was so much good information in that video that even the best putters could take away from it. I know i"m going to.
Thanks for this Iona. Beautifully presented and learnt a lot.
I love how candid she was with her process. Some points were exactly my thought process for better or worse. More of these please!
Another epic video Iona. Your love of the game comes thru in every video and then when you add in Brad’s love of the game it was a pleasure to watch.

That was an amazing hour of my life! I so enjoyed it and learned much too. Lots to go practise later today.
And so peaceful and thoughtful.
