    I love the quality of these vids Zac. From the trackers to the subtle things like finger at the flag and target lines. Alot of golf vloggers should aim to take inspiration from you you set the bar high and the viewers love it.

    Made a hole-in-one on No. 8 at the Dye Course earlier this year! This place will always be special to me. Great video Zac. That was a strong effort even with some missed putts. That course from the tips in the fog is about as hard as it gets!

    It is the most challenging course I have ever stepped on. Even the Sr. PGA guys couldn't hack it the first couple of days. The winds make it so challenging and the views are spectacular. Thank you for giving little French Lick the spot light.

    • @gasperstarina9837
      @gasperstarina9837 Рік тому

      Whats the point of course rating then ? And maybe you should not play that course from the tips? You can pla this course as 5,151 - 8,200 yards and have 5 TEE BOXES! Red, white, blue, black, gold... maybe just play it as 6,700yard or 7,250 yard course?

      I have to say it’s not a big problem as I don’t spend a lot of time on fairways...in fact, if I was smart I’d just walk up to the first hazard, throw my balls in and go home...

    Thanks for the pitch mark maintenance bit. It's the third biggest problem facing courses and golf to me. General thoughtlessness that's embarrassing if you're aren't a child. My favorite hat says Repair Your Ball Marks

    @williamslaughter6232 3 роки тому

    My favorite course that I've ever played!! First time ever having a caddy and it was a blast because he would heckle just like us. You've said "pure" a lot, and you aren't mistaken- it's pristine. Can't wait to see you tackle that LOOOONG par 3 on the back! We walked back to the tips just to blow our minds at how crazy far it was. I hope you also got to play the Don Ross course! 🤞

    Wow, that course looks carpeted. 8100 yards is a little long for me (about 1500 yards) but would be worth a go just to play that whole course. I wish I could get my lawn as green as that rough is! Look forward to part 2, fairways and greens brother. (Or was it boats and ho’s? I forget.)
