NLU Film Room: Dunaverty Golf Club
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- The final installment of our Western Scotland series was the first stop on Tron and Jim's trip: Dunaverty. Watch as the two of them face off on this sub-5000 yard funhouse. On the heels of last week's film release (When Revelation Comes), we thought it best to give a deeper look into Jim's favorite golf course with an intimate, peaceful look at all 18 holes on a calm, quiet spring morning. Hopefully, you'll get to know Jim and Dunaverty better through this episode of Film Room, featuring Jim's one-liners and some light-hearted competition. Presented by Footjoy.
Dunaverty Golf Club is situated by the village of Southend in a glorious setting on the south coast of the Kintyre peninsula. The course plays to 4,799 yards and a par of 66. Sanda Island, Ailsa Craig, and Northern Ireland are all visible in the distance.

Unreal and savage. Every hole is a completely different utterly wild world. Day I played (2 loops! 💪) there was a constant 30mph wind directly into the clubhouse, spitting rain. Lifted off feet on 5th green and 11th tee.
The kind staff cooked homemade minestrone soup. That should be reason enough to make the trek to this special place.
Just can’t help but appreciate the unsung hero of this storyline, and that is Robbie. A dear friend who gave Jim a place to stay, but someone who lifts him up with a “good shot” or “well done” after every ball. A true gem of a human.
Jim's execution vs results just has me chuckling all through these videos, he would be mind melting to play against 😂
Rereading Jim’s book and had to stop and revisit this video because of how well he describes Dunaverty. Much love to Jim!
This episode in particular was a real treat to listen to and watch with headphones on. The sound is really dialed here. Well done all around, team!
What a powerful piece that brought up some deep feelings for me having lost my sister to cancer 7 years ago.I’m still trying to deal with the hold grief has on me and I’m glad Jim has found a way to feel close to Jordan that clearly helps him to process.well done to all for putting this together in such a beautiful way
I remember playing it as a kid in the late 60's. Honesty box and wire hoops round the greens to stop the sheep. Great fun. Lots of that sort of course around the west coast.
Jim's short game is astonishing. It's like controlled blades to a foot, every time.
Ooh I'm early! Cheers boys, love seeing all the Scotland work. Jim's piece was emotional and moving. Matt is an incredible cinematographer.
Well done. It feels like I was there, and now I want to go.
I love courses like this, minimal sand, awkward hills and lies, small greens...its super fun golf
Great work Tron and Jim - it's a magical place!
The most spiritual experience I've ever had on a golf course was when I finally got to play Dunaverty one day in May of 2023. The vista from 11 tee is the most beautiful view in golf, at least in my limited experience.
Epic production, exceptionally touching back stories, fantastic sights and sounds of nature walking around with a fellow man - can you get any better? Thanks NLU.
Jim is a killer and a content king in the same video. Not many can be dialed, absolutely lose it, and then pull it back together to create this type of entertainment
a beauty! nice work as always guys!
Great matchplay course I thought. With unbelievable views. So fun.
This is my favorite one, I love how there is no commentary during the hole, only before
Love this piece and brings back great memories, especially the river which claimed my pal Dougie as a victim twice on the way out and then twice more coming back. He loves it as I electrocuted myself when they fencing around the 1st. Oh and have to go back as left a hybrid headcover there.
At least I didn't put my testicles at risk by trying to straddle the electrified wire around the first green 😂😂
😂😂😂😂 still have nightmares and by the way it was Daves greatest round of all time
"I was more of a McEnroe guy."
Is there a more apt description of the TC ethos than that?
I am not Team Tron by any means by dams this series was if not NLU's best work, it's top two or three. Well done boys!
Aspirational short game from Jim. I long for that
Just a perfect golf video ❤
I played Dunaverty in 2022, on a clear and breezy day... it's a course that can easily be underestimated...it's shortish but you definitely need to know it, because there's a lot of downhill or uphill shots... if you take it lightly, it will easily punish you... You need great precision, or you can say goodbye to your ball... the green fee is very inexpensive and the course is a lot of fun... On top of that, the views are amazing!
Pure golf ASMR.
That place is so beautiful
Please do Tourist Sauce Scotland 2
Love the lack of fluff. Just pure content
Tron drove the ball like a pro in this one
People have been saying he's generationally good :)
Loooooove these videos
26:51 beautiful backdrop / scene framing
Are those real ambient noises of birds and sheep or did you plug that in haha? Crazy!!
Hey NLU, is there no Tourist Sauce this year?
13:38 sorry to see you’re going through that Jim, nobody deserves that.
Tronald straight stuntin in those shoes
somehow one of your best...less is more?
Does Tron have any wedges in his bag?
Guy wi the hat! Approach shot to the 1st.Takes a divot, looks at it and just picks up his bag and walks off! Shocking
Jim is a bulldog out there
17 looks so fucking fun wow
you totally could've faked a trackman malfunction for Jim on 3
Videos with horrible golfers are unwatchable, despite the story
You can tell this was a swing and miss by the number of views and likes. Do better. Bring back strapped and Tourist sauce.
