Life is about enjoying it Bernie , I would love to see a course Vlog with some of the old faces again such as Crossfield , Locky , Harper , Pickard , Farley
Very enjoyable video Lester, I hope you reach your 10,000+ subscribers during 2025. You produce some cracking content and a good insight into the world of golf. Well done you 👏🏻👏🏻
Well done mince or Lester. I remember seeing Dan initially on MC channel and thinking wtf is he. Then I remember you starting and thinking is he really a golfer. But Dan is probably my favorite channel now and you not far behind, as you’ve lost your nerves. Having played golf on tv I do understand the pressure. And I always thought MC actually lumped pressure on you and Dan. Good stuff. It really is. Keep going.
As a relatively new sub, former plus handicapper & pro…. I reckon you’re onto a winner. I’m not necessarily interested in watching things off the course like you going on holiday with your family or cycling around The Lake District lol, but I’m interested in all things golf related, that why we’re here right. A good way to grow a channel in my uneducated opinion is to do little giveaways, things that don’t cost you too much money such as golf ball, gloves hats & general golfing nicknacks. “The best comment wins a dozen pro V1’s” and maybe the balls you give away could have your logo on to start a talking point “where did you get those from?”, that sort of thing. Look after your subscribers and they’ll look after you. Keep up the good work Barnsy
Stay just the way you are and the channel will grow, it may take time but golfers realise it takes time to get there either on UA-cam or with your game. Keep going you’ll get there.
Hi Lester, you were always the character I liked the most in the old course vlogs. Back yourself, you’ll do great, you have the personality for it. Good luck
I’ve been watching Mark for a long time almost 12 years I’d say. He’s a pioneer along with Meandmygolf and Rick Shiels. Unfortunately he doesn’t get the same credit.
@@berniebarnesgolfhe's opinionated, articulate and quick witted. He also recognises other talent and uses/used it to elevate his brand. It's a mix that people either like or dislike. He is clearly highly knowledgeable and took production values seriously and the videos always looked good and the content was good. But Mark always just came across as a bit of a nob, but people with the above traits normally do. I still watch Mark's content and appreciate his engagement with everyone(good or otherwise), but now there is a much wider range of content available, some of it stale and some of it not.
Having been a subscriber to that other person's channel WAY back when, I'm happy to say I've been around for the entire ride. I remain in awe of - and to a degree envious of - you fellas who take the leap necessary to pair your personal interests, skills & strengths with your career aspirations. Well done so far. Onward & upward!
I just started my channel on a whim as a video diary of playing more than 100 courses a year. But Im lucky enough to have my own full time job and can still travel so I dont have any pressure with subscriber numbers. But I like listening to the experiences of other you tubers. My benefit is people inviting me to play at their course .plus I do videos for Mizuno Golf Pairs where I get to commentate on people playing and also now on one of the golf magazine panels. So Im a wee bit different that I never mentiin subscribing on my vids lol. Hope it goes well for you and nice to chat when I visited Churston
Lovely Video Bernie its nice to hear about your life and your progress through youtube . I used to like watching you and Dan on Mark crossfields channel . Keep doing what your doing the subscribers will come your a top Man
Thanks Jeff! They were great times and loved every minute! Unfortunately all good things come to an end and it was the right time for Dan to start up, obviously I was going to go with and help him as he’s my best friend.
Stick with it Lester buddy, you’re a top bloke. I’ve spoken with you a few times over the years through multiple brands and you’re such a good on! Lots of people rooting for you pal!
Great Video Lester, great recap on your golf youtube journey. one of the best channels for me to watch as its just a honest channel with real golf being played as well. looking forward to future content, keep up the good work mate
Love the honesty Bernie Only you can judge what you feel is successful in life, it must a tough gig now on YT given the likes of Bryson, Grant horvat etc but they all had bunk up from Rick along with many others he's helped out to turn YT golf channels into other income and tbh does Bryson need to do Challenges on here no he does it for the love the game Keep going well keep watching
I can't believe you called me older. Ha Ha At 75 I am probably older than you Pop was. A trip down memory lane. I started watching Mark for swing touch up techs and Dan provided some of those. I developed a personal tie to you and Lee as well. Lee because he was a sailor like myself and you because I like to tinker with basic club repair and also you always seemed to me like someone I would like to sit down and have a pint with. We might even be a little alike personality wise. I have grown to really like the fireside chats.
Nice recap and reflection, really pleased to say that I've been there from the start including Dan's channel. Your channel goes from strength to strength, thanks for all your content
I think you are doing a great job mate, going out on your own is hard but growing constantly in life and with the channel is all you can do, maybe a range session if the weather is crappy, thanks Lester 👍🏌️⛳🇦🇺
Like the honest talks you do. I don't watch a lot of UA-cam golfing but like it when creators sit and update on the world and where they are at. Keeping it real as you do.... I wouldn't be afraid to branch out from golf too. Drop some day in the life, maybe footy vlog - you still playing? Find what you enjoy and it will all come through to those who tune in for you. In the end on youtube it's all about create create create. Don't compete just keep creating what you enjoy like your dad says. He'll be very proud of the man you are as he looks down too.
Just be yourself Lester and not something you're not..... how do you think all the others felt when they first started?.....please just keep it natural Lester and have to say your dad was one of my favs as I used to play table tennis (hated it when some people called it f*****g PING PONG 🤬🤬🤬).....lol, keep going.......🌟🎊🤩🥳
Nice video Bernie. Hope those people with the original negatives comments are now eating some humble pie. I've been with both Dan's and your channel since the start and they're the only channels I watch on a regular basis. Fully confident that you'll hit that 10k. Just keep doing you my friend and sod anyone who doesn't like it
You are doing a great job Barney don’t be too hard on yourself. There are plenty of other people to do that for you. I’ve been with you from the start and I still enjoy what you are doing.😊
Lester, I don’t know you but have followed your channel and when you were on Dan’s - authentic may not be the easiest word to pronounce but it certainly depicts my view of you. Keep up the great work and doing what you like doing.
Lester, I mentioned this before and will mention it again. Your vlogs are 'real' and as a bloke who follows WHAM (your likeness to Coufals is uncanny!). I still feel as many an ardent golf fan and football fanatic (Everton - UTFTs!) there's a market for a fan league in golf (a cheap LIV 😊). The golf/footy banter would be entertaining and players on the channel could be regular folks although the pros (Tommy Fleetwood - Everton, Matt Fitzpatrick - Sheff Utd, Lee Westwood - Nottm Forest etc,) would add an extra dimension too. I play at my course, Leeds, Villa, WBA, Man U and Liverpool (😢) fans prevail so you shouldn't be short of subscriber interest.
Lester always good to hear your thoughts on life and where your going. Hopefully the weather will get better and we can enjoy your course vlogs . Hope you're looking forward to moving to good old N/A
I really enjoy the channel, Bernie; with your genuine personality always shining through. Keep up the great work. I feel 2025 is going to be a good year for you and the channel.
Another real and authentic video Bernie. Shiels was just lucky he got in at the start. Although I'm still subscribed, I haven't watched one of his videos for ages, the last one was the Bernhard Langer one and that was because I wanted to watch Langer and not Shiels. There's that many creators now that it's hard to find a niche. Your course vlogs have been great (in the comps etc) and I would go back to the 'lesson' type vlogs and if there's any training aids, buying them from Temu. I got one that clicks if you cup your wrist for £1.89 and I saw Dan had an all bells and whistles thing (can't remember what it's called) but in essence, they both do the same thing, get your wrist in a better position. Trouble is I can't see a company giving you their product if you're going to say you can get something cheaper that does the same thing ha ha. I watch you because you're real, honest and not up your own "£60 for a birdie sauce hoodie" like some people are
Absolutely Stephen! It’s all about the enjoyment for me!

Hi Lester I discovered your channel through your post on middle aged Charlie and you were spot on with your comments. I will now follow you through your journey through 2025 and I know you will smash it. You’re an honest human being and likeable character so it’s onwards and upwards for you. I know you won’t need it but good luck in your next phase.
Keep going Lester your doing well Been watching Dan and you from your early UA-cam days I miss all the muppets vlogs I still watch them all most evenings Keep working hard and being yourself we are all only here once 👍
Glad you've gone your own way Lester. Being your own boss is the best and its a great motivator to get off your arse and get stuff done. Your Dad was right.... sometimes you've gotta back yourself and take a chance. You won't regret it. 👍
I reckon more of the same Lester. For my money your channel is different and you should keep it that way. Keep it real, keep it honest and maintain the personal angle and I reckon the growth will come. In this “fake” world in which we live I reckon people recognise “authentic”, Well done mate.
Very interesting video Lester. It seems to me that the very big UA-cam channels are very lucky that they got in at the right moment. I don’t subscribe to any of the Bigboys and can’t really understand why they have become so successful.
20/20 and then a star was born 😂 for some reason I've never been able to watch a full Crossfield video him and coach style kind of rub me the wrong way
You need to do stuff with other big youtubers to get your members up, alex etches, james wiltshire, etc , hope youre well mate, im under the knife shortly so ..........see you whenever im better, Fraser
Keep digging in, keep being creative but stay true to yourself. My Beast is hugely successful only because he doesn’t focus on one format or topic. If golf is the genre you want stick to what you know and make the best of it. You may end up with less subscribers than random content creators but they’ll be made up of a true invested audience who’ll actually watch your videos. Just be careful how much you show of your private life. If it does gain momentum quickly you’ll end up with door steppers and people doing things to cause annoyance and distraction to your private life. I believe the online world knows it as vexing. 🤷♂️ Good luck Bernie, I’ll always watch (and say it’s rubbish if necessary 😂)
Nice one mate keep going your personality will get you there. So you’re not good at tech? I’ve just worked out that I can change the name on here from my son’s name to mine! So you can stop calling me Harry. Played in the pouring rain yesterday (desperate for a game) chipped in to win on the 18th to make it worth it.
Unfortunately Bernie these keyboard warriors are a real pain in the arse,they think it’s good to either mock or just dismantle people. If you can just let people get on with their crap and ignore them or just block them,while it’s hard at times especially if they go on and on it takes a lot of restraint not to bite there heads off which would make you feel warm inside lol. Just keep on with what you do and the way you want to do it,after all mate it’s your channel not anyone else’s the people who want to watch will carry on and if people don’t then that’s down to them we all have choices. You keep going mate
Cheers David! I try and use the negative comments as a positive mate! Extra motivation to improve and prove them wrong! Thanks for your support throughout.
Hi Lester, it’s been great watching you develop over the years. Always like watching your videos when they drop in the inbox. Keep up,the hard work mate. 😀👍🏌️♂️
Honest and open, I watch your channel not for the world class golf or the brilliant camera work, I watch it because of who you are, as probably do the rest of the subscribers, 🏌️♂️2025.
From the heart mate well done!!
Thanks Andy

Fingers crossed your weather improves, so you can get back to playing golf! For me, golf is an itch that has to be scratched or crankiness sets in. 😄
Stay just the way you are and the channel will grow, it may take time but golfers realise it takes time to get there either on UA-cam or with your game. Keep going you’ll get there.
Thanks Robert! I’m in it for the long haul!
Hi Lester, you were always the character I liked the most in the old course vlogs. Back yourself, you’ll do great, you have the personality for it. Good luck
Thanks Shane! Appreciate the kind words! Lots of “old school vlogs” coming up with Dan! Hope you enjoy.
Great video Lester . You are doing a great job up and up with the channel
Thanks for all your support Mick!
Excellent chat Captain Nudger, nice to see you looking relaxed and on form 👍
Cheers Craig. Life is sweet at the moment. Hope you are good.
Nice that you mentioned Mark and coach. Don't think Mark gets the credit he deserves regarding golf on UA-cam regardless of what people think of him.
Without Mark, it’s unlikely me or Dan would have appeared on UA-cam Duncan.
I’ve been watching Mark for a long time almost 12 years I’d say. He’s a pioneer along with Meandmygolf and Rick Shiels. Unfortunately he doesn’t get the same credit.
He’s less likeable I guess Duncan.

Keep at it Lester love the honesty don’t change a thing, just think if you weren’t afraid of flying you could be filming in sun 😂
That is true Dave! I need to be saving, so probably good that I don’t fly 😂
Your brilliant mate, like you and Dan best of all the utubers. Keep going , great content, course vlogs in my opinion are the best content. 👍👍👍
Thanks Matt! Got loads of collaborations coming and plenty with Dan!
I think you are doing a great job mate, going out on your own is hard but growing constantly in life and with the channel is all you can do, maybe a range session if the weather is crappy, thanks Lester 👍🏌️⛳🇦🇺

I’ve always preferred the raw style of videos with the natural communication with the audience. You’re a likeable guy Bernie, keep it going.
Cheers Mark! Not giving up!
Another great video Lester. Best of luck with your 10,000 subscriber ambition, I'm sure you'll achieve it.
Cheers my friend! I’ll be giving it a good go, I can promise you that!
You are doing a great job Barney don’t be too hard on yourself. There are plenty of other people to do that for you. I’ve been with you from the start and I still enjoy what you are doing.😊

Thanks my friend! Me and Dan are going to do lots of collaborations this year, so hopefully that fills a hole!
Nice video Bernie. Keep it up.
Thanks for watching Jeremy
We watch this channel because of your personality Bernie. Seems like a round of golf with you would be a lot of laughs
Cheers Josh! Hopefully one day we will test that theory!
Glad you've gone your own way Lester.
Being your own boss is the best and its a great motivator to get off your arse and get stuff done.

You won't regret it. 👍
Thanks mate. Agree that you definitely work harder when it’s for yourself 😂

Like your honesty but also your no waffle video rule. Makes it an easy watch for me 😊😊
Cheers mate 😂
You basically found and made Dan, Bernie....hope he thanks you on a regular basis 😊👍
Cheers Jon 😂 definitely didn’t 😂 but do feel I helped him in his journey so far.
Great video buddy
Cheers Will! Glad you enjoyed it.
@ always enjoy your content mate. 👍🏻👍🏻
You do you Bernie. Golf is a bit slow here to 35deg Celsius here today👹
I feel really sorry for you Peter 😂 please send some ☀️ our way.
I reckon more of the same Lester. For my money your channel is different and you should keep it that way. Keep it real, keep it honest and maintain the personal angle and I reckon the growth will come. In this “fake” world in which we live I reckon people recognise “authentic”, Well done mate.
Thanks my friend. Always wanted the channel to be more than golf, one of the reasons I didn’t include it in the channel name.
Very interesting video Lester. It seems to me that the very big UA-cam channels are very lucky that they got in at the right moment. I don’t subscribe to any of the Bigboys and can’t really understand why they have become so successful.

Look at Ricks 1st videos and know you can succeed pal.
Even if you do stay small you have a decent community 👌
Exactly Steve! I’m grateful for what I’ve got.
You need to do stuff with other big youtubers to get your members up, alex etches, james wiltshire, etc , hope youre well mate, im under the knife shortly so ..........see you whenever im better, Fraser
I wish it was that easy Fraser! 😂 haven’t had the good experience with “big UA-camrs” 😂 good luck mate, hope it’s a success.
Great video! Are you still in touch with Mark? He seems to have almost given up
Keep digging in, keep being creative but stay true to yourself.
My Beast is hugely successful only because he doesn’t focus on one format or topic.

Cheers Stuart 😂 can always rely on you to tell me how it is mate 😂
@ it’s the dad in me! 😂
I know 😂
Utube wouldn't be the same without the bernie 😂
Cheers Owen! 😂 I think 😂
Nice one mate keep going your personality will get you there. So you’re not good at tech? I’ve just worked out that I can change the name on here from my son’s name to mine! So you can stop calling me Harry. Played in the pouring rain yesterday (desperate for a game) chipped in to win on the 18th to make it worth it.
I’ll call you Paul now 😂 nice ending to a wet day then! We are currently closed at my home club.
Unfortunately Bernie these keyboard warriors are a real pain in the arse,they think it’s good to either mock or just dismantle people.
If you can just let people get on with their crap and ignore them or just block them,while it’s hard at times especially if they go on and on it takes a lot of restraint not to bite there heads off which would make you feel warm inside lol.
Just keep on with what you do and the way you want to do it,after all mate it’s your channel not anyone else’s the people who want to watch will carry on and if people don’t then that’s down to them we all have choices.
You keep going mate

I’m going for 20 😂
Cheers Will 😂
Didn’t Crossfield used to call you Mince?? Never understood why!
😂 😂 apparently I mince around Mark.
Bloody hell it’s still coming up as Harry? Should now be Phil.
Is it not letting you change your name?
I loved the old Sunday morning shows 1st thing i watched when i woke up, don’t watch now. Think i like the raw basic videos amateurs can relate more.
Did you see the one me and Dan did last weekend?
Nice one Bernie. Keep doing you mate and more success will come. I’d say odds on for 10K this year. 🫡
Thanks James! I’ll keep working hard!
Hi Lester, it’s been great watching you develop over the years. Always like watching your videos when they drop in the inbox.
Keep up,the hard work mate. 😀👍🏌️♂️
Cheers Dave! So nice of you to say!
Honest and open, I watch your channel not for the world class golf or the brilliant camera work, I watch it because of who you are, as probably do the rest of the subscribers, 🏌️♂️2025.
