Nice video, Bernie. Sophie was a delight. I’d like to see you document her progress on your channel. It takes quite a bit of courage to video your first time playing on a course and as a beginner. Kudos to Sophie for having the courage. Her attitude was superb and your patience is commendable. You’re quite smart to make it fun for her, so that she wants to come back. cheers.
That was very enjoyable. Nice to watch something different. Sophie definitely has the mechanics to get better with a course of lessons. Enjoying the channel, you have a good personality for YT golf
Thanks Russell. Going to try and feature a variety of people on the channel over the next few weeks! Old, young and middle aged. Mix it up a bit. Thanks for the kind words means a lot.
Sophie saved the pars with their putting stroke! Well played! I'm waiting for for the 18 hole match. Bernie is making great content - differentiate but because of this wonderful! Thanks Bernie!
Well done Sophie just remember practice practice practice and you will get better at this and your coach is a good help well done Lester a ray of sunshine 👍
What a fantastic video and a great guest bringing a little glamour to the channel great words about playing as a pair to avoid slow play and destroying thief confidence 😊
Cheers Dean! We played the 9 holes and filmed in under 2 hours which was perfect. Not too long on the course for Soph and a reasonable speed that we didn’t ruin anyone else’s game.
Lovely to see Sophie back on the channel! I thought she did really well going onto a course for the first time! Can be intimidating. Thought you did a good job too Lester staying positive and not giving her too much to think about. Agree with some other comments that you should have this as a little series and try this every couple months or something 👍🏻
The main thing for anyone starting is for them to enjoy it Tyler! I’ll try and get Soph on as much as possible, only issue is she lives about a 10 hour drive away!
@@berniebarnesgolf Yeah that’s a lot of driving, but hopefully you can find moments here and there to have her back. I remember teaching my wife how to golf, and I tried very hard to make sure she didn’t get frustrated and had some success! I think it went well because she knows how to golf and we’re still married 😃
Bernie I think you asked a lot of Sophie considering it was her first time on a golf course and presumably first time operating your Camara but a great vlog. Well done Sophie and well done Bernie.
Yeah I did John, but I knew she was capable and wanted to appear on the channel. She absolutely smashed it and we both had fun, which is exactly the experience I wanted her to have. She’s already been practicing several times since and wants to appear on the channel again soon to show her progress.
@@berniebarnesgolf 😂😂😂 I’m a member at Stirling, hope Sophie is too. Like Andrew’s reply Stirling is a must if you come up, course is in great condition
Sophie, really well done there👍 Golf is hard, Lester having your first time on the course be on camera was a little harsh but you did great! And, what about that drive on the 5th?! Brilliant shot there 👏 Lester, that was a little mean of you but Sophie did great. A few more lessons from you and she will be able to join you in the mixed foursomes. This could be a good series for you, documenting Sophie's lessons, her improvement and the whole 'Women in Golf' deal 👍👍👍
I can see after her first chip she's gone to Bernie's short game school 😂. Cheers to her for not just her first time on a real course but doing it Infront of the camera.
What I took away from the video was her brilliant attitude, it must have been tremendously nerve wracking playing her first full size golf course, but on every hole and green she wouldn’t be rushed, especially on the greens. I think if she has the enthusiasm to learn she could be very good, well done Sophie x
Never seen so many red flags in one of your videos Bernie 🚩🚩🚩🚩😆 Seriously though, some great ideas for making it fun for beginner golfers. I got a mate of mine started recently and he gets so nervous on the 1st tee. Kudos to Soph and definitely some talent on the driver and the putter.
When i first read this, i mistook the heading for "Can We Make a Pair?!" Looking at the picture, I thought you were off to a great start with a very cute gal that is interested in golf and thought to myself, "Good On him, looks like a YES to me".
Lester one thing you can learn from her is the bell bottoms look better than the skinny high water pants you're wearing. Of course anything she wears will look better on her. ha
Sophie’s first drive was good!! 🎉🇦🇺
The one on the 5th went miles!
Lovely to see you taking your granddaughter out for a round Lester! A different and fun bit of content, thank you.
😂 love the comment mate 😂
Sophie and Lester have mutual respect for one another! Grandfather not,!
Sophie is a breath of fresh Scottish air.
This needs to be a proper series, Bernie and Sophie’s progression, a diary.
Pity she lives in Stirling Andrew! But I will visit and help her with her golf if she wants to play.
@@berniebarnesgolf let me know when you make it up here. BTW Stirling Golf Club is a great little course.
I will do and her dad is a member so will definitely play it!
❤
Great to see you promoting newcomers to the game of golf, well done
Absolutely David! The more we can get playing the better for the game!
A good start. Sophie will get better the more she plays. Her confidence will grow.
Stay safe and thanks
Definitely David! Hope she continues with it and gives it a proper go! There’s a golfer in there!
Welcome to golf Sophie. Enjoy the journey, hopefully we'll get to see some more of it.
Great video both.
I’ll certainly be encouraging her to play golf in the future mate and get her back on the channel soon!
Well done, you two, as the par came very early and thanks to Soph's great putt! And her comment ("Shut up!") was hilarious.
Glad you enjoyed it Howie! Thanks for watching!

Brilliant video , Sophie surely has natural talent for the game , let’s see more of her progress.
It’s a pity she lives in Scotland, but I will get her on the channel whenever possible Nick.
Your assistant is cute. One week club repairs, one week Sophie. Something new every week. Good job you
Cheers Bob. Trying to make lots of different content to appeal to all.
Nice video tiger
Cheers Colin! Appreciate the support.
Well done Sophie just remember practice practice practice and you will get better at this and your coach is a good help well done Lester a ray of sunshine 👍
Cheers Garry! You are right, there’s no secrets to the game! Practice is the key!
Fantastic genuine friend fantastic coach

It's only 10 hours Lester and Sophie have fantastic team work
Good fun vlog guys
Cheers Roger.
Great to see you both on the course and a very impressive start to the world of golf .
Cheers John! Hoping Soph enjoyed it enough to continue playing.
It’s sure I’ve saw a video with Sophie and yourself before,can’t remember what it was thou,knocked your challenge of no sweat 👌🏻👌🏻
Yeah we did a course vlog at cayman last year Martin.
Bernie I think you asked a lot of Sophie considering it was her first time on a golf course and presumably first time operating your Camara but a great vlog. Well done Sophie and well done Bernie.

Great video something really different. B good to see her progressing on the channel
Thanks Neil! Hoping we can get her on the channel regularly!
She will
Another nice one, play for the pleasure and remove the stress. Follow Sophie on her golf journey
Absolutely John! Enjoyment is what it’s all about! Hoping Soph will continue to play in the future.
Bernie, this should be along running series, great viewing!!!!
I’ll hopefully get to see Soph in a couple of months, so I’m sure we can film another vlog David.
@@berniebarnesgolf just great viewing Bernie, very watchable
Appreciate that David.
Great video Lester keep it up Sophie love it
Cheers Mick! Appreciate the kind words.
Great video, Bernie. Nice one, mate!
Cheers Rog!
Great format👍 Sophie did really well.
I think it worked well for her first time playing on a proper length golf course Steve.
@@berniebarnesgolf If Sophie has an handicap then you could enter an alternate shot comp. 👍
One day maybe 😂
Great video Bernie, FairPlay, Sophie played well FairPlay.
Cheers Will! She is a 🌟
@@berniebarnesgolf yeah no problem buddy. She seems a really nice person 👍🏻 , a good golf partner. ⛳️⛳️
She’s one of my best friends
@@berniebarnesgolf nice buddy FairPlay. 👍🏻
Great stuff both of you - really enjoyable & a great idea to make it foursomes/par challenge & of course more Sophie on the channel!
Cheers Martyn! We both enjoyed the format and managed 9 holes in less than 2 hours which was good.
Nice one Lester and will done Sophie!
Thanks my friend
Mon Sophie 💪 👌👍 🏴 keep swingin, Bernie needs to make this a series where we can follow your progression
It’s just a pity she lives in Scotland Craig, but I’ll definitely film with her next time I see her.
@@berniebarnesgolf 😂😂😂 I’m a member at Stirling, hope Sophie is too. Like Andrew’s reply Stirling is a must if you come up, course is in great condition
Also possible vlog with honorary member Craig lee holding the course record, who’s with James Ruth etc GB/I to America shortly.👍
I’ll see if he’s around when im up there Craig. Thanks for the info.
Brilliant xxxxx natural raw golf for a learner xxxxx
She did brilliantly Christine! X
So proud of you both ❤
❤️
Good to see Soph back on the channel, Lester, your chipping looks so much better.
Soph has more Disco than Scottie!
😂 she’s a dancer Andrew 😂
No wonder your handicap has been going up, mate. 😉 You should try that 5 Times Parallel with Sophie, Lester. Cheers you two. -Rod
Absolutely my friend 😂
I am old mate has she got a Mum or Granny for me. She is a keeper . She will be great on the channel. thumbed up as usual. regards.
Thanks mate! She was down in Devon this week with her mum and dad 😂
hehehe i deffo knew you was going to miss that putt XD
😂 me too 😂
Well done
Thanks my friend.
@@berniebarnesgolf I would do the same thing with my son when he started.
Love that
👍
Cheers Mark
She’s got a decent driver swing for a beginner. Plenty of speed.
Keep up the good work.
She’s has good speed as you say Chris which is hard to teach.
Yes Bernie
Thanks for watching Fabian!
What a great entertaining video.. Also a super cute lady!!!
Cheers Ron! She’s one of my best friends.
Evening mate . I won the foursomes last week .. love it lets go
Did you!? Congratulations Kev!
Did anybody else get Beauty and the Beast vibes 🤣🤣🤣 great content👍
That’s a bit harsh on Sophie Peter 😂
@@berniebarnesgolf I will moderate my comments in future (unlikely) 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
Sophie, really well done there👍
Golf is hard, Lester having your first time on the course be on camera was a little harsh but you did great! And, what about that drive on the 5th?! Brilliant shot there 👏

I’d love to do a series with her Kent. Although unfortunately she lives 10 hours from me in Scotland.
@@berniebarnesgolf Such a shame Lester because Sophie came across great 👍👍👍
She’s been on the channel before mate
@@berniebarnesgolf Yes it was a long time ago though wasn't it? 🤔🤔🤔
Last summer
Cayman is a great little course. Was on hols by there few weeks back.
We played it last year on the channel mate.
@@berniebarnesgolf great fun isn’t it. I had a hole in one on 6 🤣
I’ve never had one 😂
@@berniebarnesgolf no way! I’ve had 6 now.
Well not a cayman, had 7 on real golf courses.
I can see after her first chip she's gone to Bernie's short game school 😂. Cheers to her for not just her first time on a real course but doing it Infront of the camera.
😂 cheers Brian 😂

Totally agree Nigel! She did brilliantly! I was bit mean making her hit off the 1st tee too! 😂
Yeah! But she bounced straight back, really pleased for you both.
She’s a 🌟
❤
Never seen so many red flags in one of your videos Bernie 🚩🚩🚩🚩😆
Seriously though, some great ideas for making it fun for beginner golfers. I got a mate of mine started recently and he gets so nervous on the 1st tee. Kudos to Soph and definitely some talent on the driver and the putter.
Lots of red flags Simon 😂 hoping it may inspire a few other ladies and beginners to give it a go!
Foar play to Sophie with that put.
I was shocked Ian! 😂
Camera work almost as good as mine lol 👍👍
Similar ability with a camera as you Nathan! 😂
That good then?…lol
Debatable 😂
Good for Sophie, how about a Texas Scramble next time as a foursomes is quite a difficult format for a beginner.
I thought on a scramble I’d be hitting too many shots Paul
Yes. Though I think you have been ambitious trying to teach Sophie how to video at the same time as playing golf.
😂 I’m an ambitious man Duncan 😂
@@berniebarnesgolf yes, I have always thought so! Keep up the good work.
When i first read this, i mistook the heading for "Can We Make a Pair?!" Looking at the picture, I thought you were off to a great start with a very cute gal that is interested in golf and thought to myself, "Good On him, looks like a YES to me".
😂 just friends Briar. I’m old enough to be her dad 😂
@@berniebarnesgolf LOL. - totally my mistake.
😂
Captain Nudger and Wee Nudgeress 🏴 from my homeland
She’ll be a natural 🏴👍
Everyone Scottish can play golf Craig! 😂
Could this be a new romance, we need to see how this blossoms. 😉
No Olly. We are just friends and I’m 23 years older then Soph 😂
Can you imagine how nerve-racking this must have been.... cna anyone remember their 1st time on the tee....
Like throw them in the deep end Colin 😂
O Lester you had a twinkle in your eye
I always have a twinkle in my eye Tony.
Find it hard to believe that someone with a Scottish accent, over the age of five, is playing their FIRST round of golf!!! 🤣
I know Joe 😂 her dad plays so it’s in the blood I guess.
Tuff job but someone has to do it.
😂 tough at the top 😂
You are a very brave man😂
The things I have to do for the subscribers Owen 😂
❤ Lester the most kind and most genuine person we so proud of them both ❤️
Of course you will make a par
Thanks for the positive vibes Ian
Lester one thing you can learn from her is the bell bottoms look better than the skinny high water pants you're wearing. Of course anything she wears will look better on her. ha
Obviously mate 😂 I hate getting the bottom of my trousers dirty! 😂
No par on second hole
Wrong Lars!
I dont think youre making par here Bernie.
I didn’t according to Soph Ian 😂
