As a new golfer...Really enjoying your videos Luke so please keep them coming!
Will do Mr Boss! Thanks for watching
I would be interested to see the stroke index on some of these holes. Great vid. Ty for sharing
Thanks Daniel 👍
Watch all your videos now Luke. Great stuff. I'm new to being obsessed with golf after 15 yrs of playing 2 rounds a year with no practice, struggling to break 120. Now I'm hitting 800 balls a week at the range with increasing consistency and pushing the driver to 300+ yards (sometimes). Can't wait to get out with the boys in the Spring, break 100, and hopefully not win the wooden spoon again. Keep it up bud!
Wow! What triggered the mentality change to golf after all that time? Appreciate you watching Sikulu! Best of luck with the golf 👊
Buzzing to see a new upload mate. I’ve been trying to improve toward breaking 100 but had a mare and shot 114 the other day, confidence levels are shot! Only been playing 4 months ish but have crammed a lot of golf into that period.
Enjoying watching you progress!
Ahh don't worry mate! The same happened to me, my scores were all over the place in the first 6 months. Keep at it 👊
Great round! Nice to see someone enjoying winter golf!
Aha cheers Daibhidh 👍
As a 16 handicap I can relate. Thank you. Enjoying the videos
Thanks Steve, appreciate it
Another great round and by the look of it, your progress should be making you happy! Breaking 80 is next... you're right on track.
Thanks! That's the aim for next year 💪
Love watching ur vids and seeing how much you improve
Thanks Neon! 👊
Well played mate. Enjoyable watch like always
🏌️♂️⛳
Nice round Luke, great editing and entertaining as usual! The 3 Hybrid is such a great club in my opinion. I’ll often use mine off the tee if I’m getting serious. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks Jarrod! Yeah I think I'm just getting used to it. It definitely feels like I'm not getting the most out of it at the moment
Great Upload......find these relaxing to watch while at work lol! Cheers brotha!
Thanks Phoenix, love that!
Good winter round that pal .
Well done
Cheers Cousy 👍
Great round again 🎉 the chip in on the retake is a classic 😂. Some of the putts looked real good today was routing for 5 in a row on the pars. Annoying when the greens slow in winter mind, thankfully I have a good 5months of summer ahead
Ahh lucky you Jack! Hope you enjoy them 😎 Thanks mate
That short game is crucial!!! Good job!
Thanks Chris!
Great video, love the graphics really smart. 👍
Thanks mate 👍
That was one heck of an interesting round Luke, forgetting your clubs and still shooting a very good score. This should be a practice challenge most of us could put to good use. I sometimes use a totally wrong club and try to adapt the shot, to create versatility to get better out of weird lies. Great pre winter content keep it coming Mate.
Thanks Kevin. I didn't mean to forget them but you're right, interesting challenge when you haven't got them all
Although you forgot the long clubs the hybrid etc kept you in play for a very good steady round,well played
Cheers Jamie. Yeah didn't massively miss the other clubs in the end
I know I'm way late to the party here but let me offer some free advice, which is exactly what it's worth- nothing lol. I too have found that I've suffered if I can't warm up at the golf course. So I adopted a stretching routine as I get dressed and then before I leave the house I swing the clubs in my back yard and sometimes even hit some practice balls (plastic ones) into a hockey net, just to get to swing a few times. I have found that it's better than nothing! :)
Great shout that actually Canuck. I've been known to drive out of my to a range beforehand if possible too 😂
50 wedge got some hammer in this round Luke.
Usually does 😂
Great videos for a new golfer like myself! I see improvement with every video of yours
Thanks Kieron 👍
Great channel!
Cheers David!
Top video as always, early on i did wonder why does luke use a blade putter. Wow you certainly answered that, superb display of putting.
Aha just don't watch some of the other videos Craig 🙈😂 Thanks mate!
Decent round, well done! Putter was working well for you. I find the ball doesn't fly as far in the winter, so I wouldn't worry about the yardages too much.
Yeah agreed, just plugs as soon as it lands as well. Cheers mate!
Love the videos mate, I’m in a similar boat to you, been playing for a year now and down to 18 handicap but struggling to progress any lower. Good luck working on your swing technique. Lets see if I can catch up with you as progress too!
Thanks mate! Appreciate it. Good luck with your game too! 👍
You should play Hollingbury golf course in brighton, played it today and had a bit of a stinker but course is in good condition for winter except for the bunkers which are going to be redone. Also quite a challenging course.
Bit of a trek for me that Dylan!
Great round! If I were you I would not use the 3H for every second shot, rather a 6 or 7 to leave you with a more consistent distance for wedge shot and thus lowers your score. It ultimately goes down to course management and which club your feel more confident with to approach the green. Looking forward to you breaking 80 soon.
Yeah I think that's solid advice looking back 👍 Thanks!
as a 16 handicap, this video makes me feel we are all the same. keep up the great work man.
Thanks mate!
Well played Luke mate! Really enjoying the videos. Would like to see woody back on the channel soon;)
He's a man in demand is Woody! I'll get him back though don't you worry 👍
your courses look just like our courses right about now. Leaves everywhere!!
It's a nightmare PNW, can't see the ball for looking!
I love the videos
Thanks Jonas 👍
Excited to see how oulton hall deals with you
😎
Nice vid. New subscriber earned
Thanks!
Looking good Luke, you may sharpen up that sand play for your trip to the desert.
You mean to say that's not how you play out of bunkers?
You can see you are so close to that magical round where it all comes together. You used to have all the components but on different dates. Now you have all the components but on different holes. Not long till the long mid and short games turn up together and you rip it up I am sure of it. Still a chance you shoot 100 the week after due to the fact that golf is golf but keep grinding!
Summed up perfectly James! Law of averages surely means I'm due that round soon 😂 Then the 100 of course. Thanks mate!
Really enjoy these course vlogs. I usually hit mid to high 20-over so I'm aiming to get to your current level, and it gives me inspiration! Thanks very much, and keep them up :)
Thanks Joe! Appreciate it mate. Keep at it 💪
Great video as ever mate 👌🏼, nice and easy to watch, are those the milled grind wedges your using?🤔if so how are you finding them?keep up the great videos 👍🏼
Thanks Rickie 👍 They are. I like them mate, took a little while to get used to them but can't grumble at all now
Hey Luke, great channel. Real golf that I can definitely relate to. If the 3 hybrid isn’t doing what you want, would you consider hitting your longest iron? 6 in this case? It is really interesting how course management decisions change when your limited on club selection.
On course I think I would do that now Cameron. Some days some clubs just seem to work better than others don’t they. Thanks for watching mate!
Definitely seem to be slicing your drives less as well!
Your chipping is so consistently impressive 👏
Yeah I'm really trying hard to eradicate that slice. It takes a lot of concentration at the moment haha. Thanks, I've come to depend on my chipping a lot recently. Played the other week and it wasn't great. As a result neither was my score 😂
Nice work again Luke…ATB Gerry 👍
Cheers Gerry 👊
Well done, a nice round with no three putts or three off the tees to spoil your card.
Thanks Ray!
Enjoyed the round, I play off 13 so similar standard with similar errors. I’ve recently improved my chipping and note that you do what I was doing, that is standing too far away from the ball in a stance that you would use for a full iron shot. My consistency has dramatically improved by adopting more of a putter distance. Watch Danny Maude and his chipping video. Cheers
Interesting Mike, thanks for the tip 👍
Your a very similar level to me. Drives and fairway seem to be best part of my game but like some of yours I get those duffs or thins chipping. Would be interesting to see how you evolve and how on the short game
Thanks Top Golf. I’d say my short game is usually one of the stronger points of my game. Not on this day though
Your short game and putting is pretty good for your handicap
Thanks
Your 50 and also 60 degree chipping is really solid. Question, what’s going on in your head during chipping? What’s your target (hole or landing spot, etc)? Any insights. You’re a natural.
Thanks Ryan. My thinking is always landing spot with chipping. I try to roughly gauge how much break there is and how much roll they’ll be (depending on the club I’m using and green speed). Then I just pick a landing spot 👍
Luke, great job again!
Is that the Mavrik max driver? Did your get fit for it and how are you finding it?
Thanks mate! No it's a Taylormade M2 driver, I got this one second hand
Great watch. Had to laugh at that rerun when you chipped in off the green. How often does that happen when you just drop a ball ? Maybe we all overthink things sometimes. I think I do 🤷♂️. Anyway sub 90 in winter with some loose shots thrown in is pretty tidy mate 👍
Every time David 😂 Yeah exactly my thoughts mate, I was happy to come off with that score 👍
Good round! I knew you'd play well today..you left some difficult to hit clubs out from bag.
I do reckon that you'd be better pitching and chipping more with P Wedge, rather than 50°.
Thanks Jon 👍 To get a bit more roll you think?
@@UpDownGolf Exactly...P Wedge and 9i for even more roll out.
Both are safer options than gap, sand and lob wedges.
Nicely done. You seem to hit it pretty straight, so do you see yourself eventually trying to add more speed to your swing?
I’d love to Jeremy 👍
Enjoy your videos pal 🙏🏼💪🏽 if you’re ever up near Bolton way, I’d happily have a round with you. which shot tracer do you use?
Cheers Andrew! I use ShotTracerPro
Very well-played, Luke. Not that far from a sub 85. It is within you.
I'm getting there. Thanks Robert 👍
Hi great video . can i ask if you don't mind what trolley grip do you use for your phone and also what do you use to trace you shots. Thanks in advance.
I used a small tripod with flexible legs Chris 👍
ShotTracerPro for the tracers
hey, how do you record the shot lines? do you use an app? if so, which one?
Hi Jon, I use ShotTracerPro
Enjoying the videos Luke. Just one observation, it may be the camera angles but you do appear to ground your club at times in the bunkers before playing your shots.
Argh I do Stephen! Bad habit, I'm working on it 👍
@@UpDownGolfno problem on your casual rounds but you could be called on it during a competition. keep up the good work. Love watching the progress.
Nice putting, saved you strokes! Hoping to see you play the more “premium” courses.
Thanks. Might have something in the pipeline on that front 👀
Wee wobble after ur 4 pars in a row there m8 but all in all a decent round well played 👍🏻🏌️♂️⛳️
Thanks Jason, funny old round that one!
I'm also a 15 handicap , enjoyed watching that video , would love a round with you
Thanks Matt, appreciate it
Which driver do you use Luke?
I have been using a Taylormade M2. Just changed to a Sim 2. Both seem the same to me 👍
I just have to laugh at 11:24 because all too often (when the group in front is playing too slowly and will not let me through) I will take another ball or two out and practice some of these chips or flops around the green too. Wouldn't ya know that 9 out of 10 times my practice shots are insanely better than my actual shots when they count?? 'Y Tho' indeed my friend. Great video.
Haha every time Cory! Thanks mate 👊
How far do you hit with PW and 50? I hit 105yd with PW but only 72-75 with 50 wedge which is much shorter than average. Struggling with 80-90yd here
Usually I hit P wedge between 105-110 with the 50 between 90-95 I'd say
Yeah I'd say you're maybe mishitting that 50 wedge if you are only getting 75 out of it. It did take me a couple of months to get used to my wedges when I first got them
Would love to play a round with you. Our game is so similar it’s uncanny.
Hopefully you hit your hybrid better than me Revo!
@@UpDownGolf 😅 when I catch it pure it goes 240 yards. But on average it’s at 220-230 just about takes over for my 4i.
My chipping is very hit or miss. Been trying to putt or bump and run more frequently.
Good weather working against you?
Aha something like that!
Played this course many years ago and stayed in the hotel on a works night out it was very wet and really boggy and i really did not enjoy it
It's not got much better Phil
Nice course but if your on a overnight stay don’t leave your clubs in your car take them to your room if you won’t to play the following day.
The course is okay I think. Sounds like you’ve had a bad experience Phil!?
Excellent course but let's say a few incidents in the car park of items being removed from cars when we visited which was over 6 years ago so the security could have and hopefully improved. Very good video and good golf.
That's my local course
What do you think to it?
@@UpDownGolf I've only played it twice, it's pretty expensive compared to what I normally pay and not worth it in my opinion
Winter golf in the UK, start the round frozen to the bone. End the round wishing you wore shorts and a polo
😂 Bang on Ross!
no offence but you have the all the gear but no idea
The 'no offence' didn't work. I'm absolutely devastated...
I’ve got the gear as well and know idea. Still love it
Yo @Up & Down Golf, go follow Golf Sidekick ! tell me thank you later, peace !!! XXXXXX
I’ve seen loads of Matt’s videos 👍
