We love seeing the Bully and the special guests but dont under estimate how much we love seeing you lads play. Its very relatable to most of us. Great effort, mate.
@TUBESANGEGOLFLIFE absolutely brilliant, you set out with a goal and you achieved it. You showed the joy a high handicap golfer goes through every round. Now you just need to learn course management. Sometimes it’s better to play for a bogey if you are a long way from the hole. Either way keep playing and I would love to see you continue the single 18 hole videos to see what your official handicap is through Golf England.
Probably the most relatable golf video I’ve seen on UA-cam. Love how you kept having a word with yourself. On another day you’d have shot 8-10 less. Also, as a 36 year old growing up on Soccer AM, you having a club in your hand instead of a pint suits you down to the ground 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Golf Life Legend.
Tubes , that was the most powerful golf video ever. You were so brave to even finish the round. I know you wanted to walk away after the quad but you stayed and by the end you were better. We all have seen how much you’ve improved recently so don’t get discouraged keep on going. Up the pink castle tees!
Tubes, Ange, and Jimmy. Prob won’t see this but just in case just wanted to say big thanks again for what you are doing. I suffer from awful anxiety and watching this channel is bloody brilliant, it’s just chilled and really helps me out when feeling rubbish. Best golf channel out there by a mile, it’s funny but also has great golf, great tips for amateurs and the way you involve us all along the way is great. So again just cheers to all of you 👍
And that’s why this is the best golf channel…. Tubes is a normal guy and an average golfer like the rest of us and loves the game. Content we can all relate to and enjoy. Golf life legend!
Love this Tubes. I’ve recently come out with my own alcohol issues and you have helped to give me the strength to be honest and open. You are unapologetically yourself, and that is wholeheartedly inspirational in today’s world. You mean more to people than you know. Go on the boy. Billy Jessop.
Brilliant video, and relatable for anyone whose played the game. You asked for tips, so here's my two (9.3 handicap): 1 - Safe shot - When your strike is off as it was today, it's a massive weapon to have just a 3/4 or even 2/3 swing where you club up and focus on just striking the ball well. At your handicap you've got shots to play with, and it's important to be able to reset your technique back to a good strike as easily as possible. 2 - Mindset - Losing your head costs so many shots. It's always important to remember why you're there and what you can realistically expect from yourself. At your handicap you will hit bad shots, but the ability to mentally persevere (in conjunction with point 1) will mean you score much better afterwards and most importantly you don't waste your day upset. I play off 10 at my course, shot +11 front 9 on Saturday, -1 back 9 to finish to my handicap. It would have been easy to blow up, but just having both the above points in my locker lead to probably my most proud round yet. Love the content as always!
Great effort Tubes! Playing from the tips is hard enough, but having an off day makes it all the harder. Plus, you’ve got the pressure of the camera. 99% of us will never have that. You have been playing a lot better in the last few vids. Don’t stress about one round.
I played my first ever round of golf over the weekend, largely inspired by this channel, and shot 146. I’m praying for a round this good one day. 😂 Well done for beating the target, and for the continually great content. 👍
Been there, done the score. Now in mid 80s. Well done to start and just keep working at it. Tips I got from coach. Keep it simple- ( I watch Tom Saguto you tube) and learn your sections. Learn your setup first. (Head, shoulders, arms, hands grip, feet, aim point) Back swing (takeaway) Downswing (hands close to body, elbow in) Contact with Ball Follow Through What coach made me do was write each section down on paper with the "rules" he wanted me to follow. It was like being at school, seriously. That way I did not just rely on what he said to me on range and really learnt golf. Wish you all the best for the future.
16:32 I always put my T's, markers, pitch repairer and so on in my pocket that's opposite my hand with got the glove on, i got fed up of having the same problem you had here so switched pocket so now my hand with out the glove is now the one going into my pocket and life is so much easier :D
Love these videos, just starting watching this channel the last week and I’m hooked. I’m 44, a 6 handicap and been playing since I was 12. Watching good people like Tubes and Ange who are new to golf, go through the highs and lows of this great game is brilliant entertainment. We’ve all been there with the lows but it’s the highs that give us the bug to want to keep playing. Keep at it Tubes, you’ll break 80 before you know it, especially playing with the Legend Jimmy Bullard, his game is superb.
Best bits of advice I got in lessons as a high handicapper 1. Play within you limitations don’t think because green in regulation is 2 that 3 is bad. Break your shots down to what is comfortable. 2. If going for the green choose your club then put it back and get 1 club more. So if think a 7 take a 6. You will reduce your score for sure
That was class Tubes, even though you thought it was crap you broke 100 on a bad day, not every day is a good day. Do it again every few months on your own as a break 90 series, we’d love to see it and watch you get better and better! Then you can turn it into a break 80 series 🙌
This is why we keep playing! When I play badly I have to go out play another round to prove I can do better, when I play well I have to play another round to keep it going. You’re one of us mate and us average golfers feel your pain and can relate to every duff, thin, chunk, slice, hook and 3-4 putts. Keep it coming guys have loved just watching a fellow golfer trying to keep it together ❤
Could watch Tubes playing a full 18 with Big Ange on comms every week. Tubes improved so much and it’s brilliant to see. Keep up this brilliant content fellas, really enjoy it.
Most relatable UA-cam golf video I have ever watched ! As soon as you think you're any good at golf, the golf gods remind you how tough the game is. I recently broke 100 for the first time ever, after a year of trying ! I shot 93! Felt like the world was lifted off my shoulders, I'd have celebrated your final tally like I'd won the champions league. Perspective is perspective!
Sorry to see you have such a tough time Tubes, my boyfriend and I love watching Golf Life and you because your energy and love for golf is so infectious. It was sad to see you get so down while playing. Golf is so much a mind and attitude game even though it's seen as physical. I'd love to see a video where you get a golf coach or psychologist on to talk about how to think about playing better and making it more enjoyable. Keep your head up, we all know you can play better than this, but at the end of the day that doesn't matter, we just want to see you having a great time!
One of the BEST golf videos I've EVER watched Tubes. You went out with the wrong attitude, Never give yourself a target, just play each hole as It comes. When you start chasing It, It's over. Ange's face to camera at the start was classick Oliver Hardy. Great Video!
Well done Tubes. Golf is easy when you're playing well, but it tests your character when the chips are down. Your golf has come on leaps and bounds in the last six months. It's great to see you getting better and better. The Legends love you pal ❤️
Really well played Tubes. Lots of pressure and tough conditions. Try it again in spring/summer to give you a true reflection. Ange you had me in stitches more than once
Really enjoyed this video. Tubes, we are all human. Some days good, some days not so much!! You are a good golfer, and a great showman! Please don't be so hard on yourself and keep up the great work. Looking forward to seeing more videos!!
Best golf video I’ve watched all year, this was literally me on Sunday… head went after making a triple on a simple par 3. Once your head goes it goes but nice to know it’s not just me who does it. Keep it up you GOLF LIFE LEGEND ⛳️
Tubes first of all congratulations on breaking 100 you definitely have break 90 in you, secondly you just went through what a lot of us go through every week and you had a camera in your face, love the show Golf Life Legends
I only found this channel a few weeks ago. I had given up the game for the last few years but you boys have inspired me to start swinging (a golf club) again and enjoy the game……keep up the great work and content and hope to catch up with you all next time you are in the UAE, you golf like legends!
This is real golf. It's relatable and I love to see it. All my rounds in 2024 have been like this pretty much - when even your usual strengths let you down it makes you angry, and sad, and feeling lost, but we keep coming back for more. Love the channel. ❤
Tubes, just want to say quickly how much we enjoy your channel. Been hard times, wife has been poorly but you always raise a smile. Keep em coming. Cheers
You boys are brilliant and I love the relationship between you and Ange, Tubes. Me and my brother never used to be able to finish a round together years ago because we were just way too competitive and driven by our egos. I'm a 10 handicapper and 100 round PL is nothing to be ashamed off - tough track off the yellows, let alone the back tees! Really enjoyable watch and laughed and smiled so many times - this is 18 holes of golf for the vast majority every week. Well done lads!
Tubes a truly brilliant video. So relatable to the average golfer. Seeing the melt down knowing you can strike a ball better and hit better shots. Glad you beat 100 and on another day you would have broke 90. Keep the content coming. Love Jimmy & the guests but equally love you v Ange and your videos with your mates are always a funny great watch.
I could relate to every shot of this video being an 18 handicap and having played this fantastic sport for over 30 years. It is definately 90% mental. Love your channel, you are definately improving.
Don't need to tag a mate , it's my head that goes !! Feeling the tension from you on every shot Tubsey , we've all been there and will be again and again mate. That's Golf Life !
I liked the fact that Pete carried on to the end. Some would have capitulated! Forget the bad holes , zoom in on the good holes and shots. You keep us budding pro's ever hopeful and wanting to continuing play this great game. Keep up the good work, no matter what the scores are. Thank you all.
One of the better most relatable videos I’ve seen for a little while mate. This is me and my mates playing a round, not a pro amongst us but always walk away with a shot we brag about for the next week/month 😂
Thoroughly enjoyed your battle to shoot under 100. Raw content that is so relatable to the majority of leisure golfers. Loved the psychological battle that you endured. Tubes and Ange, you Golf Life Legends.
Cracking golf coming of age clip. For those that have watched for a while its always been team events.. where can tubes contribute. This was solid and raw. Golf is a journey. This was the true test.. standing alone. Loved it. Tubes.. my tip: get a handicap and work out stableford scoring. Cos u will have quaddies... but in stableford they dont hurt so much! Love from aus
Great video. I truest believe losing your head on a golf course is one of the hardest things to over come. We all have our off days but we can clearly see you are better than 99 tubes. Keep plugging away #golflife
Glad to see realistic video tubes. We all have those games when you just lose the will. But we all go back out next time and go again. Good on the golf life legends. ❤
It happens to us all Tubes, please keep doing these videos as we will see you get better and better each time. My tip is play 6 mini games of 3 holes, so 1st 3 holes add up the total shots, then play the next 3 and add up just the total of those 3 holes and so on. It's a great way to reset so you can get your round back on track and improve it you play the same course.
We all have those days Tubes. You are definitely improving but you were playing on your own which is hard for anybody. We love watching your journey and the channel has a whole. Keep up the great work.
Great video lads. Best bit for me, is everyone being included (Scottie and Steve) and not taking it too seriously. Rarely do you see channels including the extended team and everyone there was supporting a solo effort under the spot light which isn’t the funnest way to play the game. Tee #9… I’d blame the bonfire! I’m a huge fan of the channel. Top work 👍
Class tubes. You’re simply the best mate. Your personality is second to none and without you, this show wouldn’t be the same. Tough to do this under pressure but you did it. You’re much better than that too, we clearly have seen you play so much better. You could break 90 with a decent round.
Loved this video boys. Love seeing Bully ripping it up against the pros and the guests. But you boys are where it started and why we all came here to be part of the Golf Life family. Perfect way to sum up any mid-high handicapper golf. Smash it one day, retire the next! As for losing your head on the quad bogeys... Got a mate who plays to his handicap as the course par as he goes, so he plays a par 3 as a par 4, par 4 as a par 5 etc, saves him a lot of heartache and pain and takes some of the pressure off. Might help... Might not. Keep your chin up, hope you didn't fall asleep by the end of this essay. Love the channel and love the boys. Golf Life, it's the only life we know!
another excellent video, we've all been through your pain and had rounds like this when the head goes. found this video so relatable when starting out, the pressure of playing for a score. when you look back the amount of shots you could have saved, would of easily broke 90. a good way to play is play level 5's try score 5 or less on every hole helps break 90 and give you achievable targets. keep the content coming and thank you from a Golf life legend 👍
Well done Tubes for starting the "real" journey of playing for yourself.(Seriously excited for you. Can see your passion.) Just two pieces of advice. 1. Teach yourself to "Stay in your Box" (The Tee Box) when playing any shot. You are moving around a lot, especially after playing a shot and it appears you are early looking to see where your ball is going and is one of the reasons, you become off balance after striking the ball . You are making yourself anxious before you even hit the ball. "Keep Still" when playing your shot. ONLY concentrate on playing your shot (commitment) and NOT worrying where the ball is going to go. The ball will look after itself after you hit it. Promise !! (Dont forget to set your aim point, EVERY time you play a shot..as Jimmy tells you from time to time LOL) You will be seriously surprised how your shot making significantly improves distance and direction. This way you will be seriously more mentally relaxed, and relieved because you have taken away your worry about direction, flight, distance etc etc. 2. You are not on Jimmy's level. Totally Accept that (for now). You cant get greens in regulation in par 3, 4 or 5 on their % levels. Yes, I know you have been playing "Team" games which has unfortunately created "unrealistic" expectations to play shots with fairway woods etc which land out of bounds or in trouble. Try and create the understanding that when you play on your own, you will play every par 3 in 4. Every par 4 in 5 and every par 5 in 6. On a par 4, you take 3 shots with clubs you can hit comfortably, to reach the green. NO pressure. NO mess. NO overthinking and trying to hit too hard. NO out of bounds. This way you will always be much closer to the green when playing your 3rd and NO pressure to try and play a 185 2nd onto the green as in Teams. Two putts and you 1 over. On a par 5, even if you take 4 shots with clubs you can hit comfortably, you are much closer to the green when playing your approach shot, which takes ALL the pressure off your putting. On a par 3, 2 to the green, 2 to put. 1 Over on every hole is.....90. Just trying to create a new happy type of thinking(expectations) for you when playing your clubs and in course management, that will take all the stress away and make you start seriously enjoying your own golf. Trust me. Your play will significantly improve beyond your expectations and you WILL be respected by EVERYONE when they see how you keep to your own disciplines. Best of luck Tubes. Will be watching you.
Good advice I’m a 23 handicap and even I can see he’s not a 16 handicap. I think it’s all to do with playing with better players he’s also trying to hit the clubs further than he can I think he’s been short on every single shot like a 164 yard shot into the wind using a 7 iron he’s never going to get there.
Brilliant Tubes absolutely spot on this is REAL golf especially off the back tees . That was a very hard course at this time of year with no carry and roll . We have all been there . Top man tubes keep them coming mucka 👍🏻😊
Bad day on the course there Tubes, but you kept on going and had a smile on your face, and you and the rest of the team are putting smiles on lots of faces, thank you and keep up the great "work' hehe.
Biggen talking about films and laughing and joking when tubes is giving himself a hard time is massive. Raising the mood keeping the spirits up. Exactly what a good caddy does
Tubes, dont ever give up after an 8 or above, we are never going to be scratch golfers its all about the fun and banter with your mates, i love the game for the fun. Some days are amazing others well you know. Love the channel chaps x
Tubes, one of the best thing I’ve read for the mental side which has helped me is be angry about a shot for five steps then move onto the next shot. Clear mind, reset, do what you can do. Keep up the great work guys, makes me want to get out and play after every video!
Loved it Tubes, golf is hard. Try to temper your expectations, as soon as you expect to hit a beauty, golf bends you over. Keep going, your game is definitely better but playing a medal is always tough. Love the content you guys.
Tubes....your a bloody Legend, its truly golf life....gotta take the lows....and enjoy the highs, great you were managing to still laugh on last hole. Great channel and keep the vids coming. Up the golf life!
Trust me tubesy, it was great to watch. I'm a bang average golfer, quite often my head goes, and it's so hard to get back. None of us are pros. So bloody well done mate. If the camera wasn't on, you would have stormed it. If I'm out there on my own I play well. Soon as I'm with someone, it's hit or miss. Loved this guy's. Always love the bulldog, but love you guys 2 ❤
Great video guys. I haven't played for a few years but I could totally relate to this. Stick with it Tubes, you beat the booze you will crack golf mate and give us some joy along the way.
That was awesome, Tubes. Playing by yourself, no lads to bounce off, and pressure added from playing from the back - and you still won Conor’s “bet”. Ange’s face, though … 🤣 As for the quads, easier said than done but each new hole is starting again, and if you ignore the score and count it up at the end, it’s not so bad, so try to leave them behind 😊 Fabulous content (as ever), and, with respect, Conor can do one!! Big respect, Tubes, you GLL 🤩⛳️
Tubes you are a REAL golf life legend. We all feel your pain but the lows are what make the highs so good. If it was easy it wouldn’t be the game we love. We all need an Ange in our game to keep us sane. Great stuff.
Just want to reiterate so many comments… this is REAL golf and spot on to you Pete for putting yourself out there for all to see… just believe and commit to shots more and you’re playing in UK, it’s cold and wet with no roll…add 5-10 on to all clubs and you would have been in much better shape! Keep this legendary content coming chap 👍👌
Tubes is a LEGEND. Entertaining literally hundreds of thousands of Golf Life Legends. Don’t let trolls wind you up. If you are a 16 handicap, from the back tees on most courses your course handicap will be somewhere around 19 (91 gross). You only shoot your handicap 1 in 5 rounds so this score is right around a bang average round as I am sure it is for most people watching this channel (including yours truly). Up The Golf Life!
For me this is one of the best ever videos you done. To the average weekend golfer this is so relatable ... I'm a 22 HC and went from playing the best golf I've ever played at the end of last year to being utterly embarrassing at the moment, terrified of my driver and hooking my irons ..but golf is a journey and I have to remember why I played it to begin with, and that's to get out of my own head .... Lots of love tubes you're a legend
LOVE THIS! This is sooo like one of my rounds: the highs, the lows, the lowers! I usually only play 9 holes with mates so when I do play 18 I find it hard to keep concentration up. You could have easily shot mid 80s (or mid 110s!!) This is why we keep coming back...
Ange is absolutely fantastic in this video. Mary Rose was just priceless!!!!!😂😂. I reckon you two doing a reaction video would be money. Great work gents and you deserve all the success the channel is getting.
Keep your head up Pete, we aren’t here to watch tour standard golf we are here to watch you and your brother’s journey, doesn’t matter if you shoot 10 under or 100 over keep your head up, keep cracking your jokes and innuendo’s and the legends will get behind you what ever you outcome! Congratulations on breaking 100 from the backs now you can work on breaking 90 would love to see this as a series! ❤
Love the video, love the content. You asked for tips: in winter - club up (aim for the yardage to the back of the green). You left a lot short, which you can learn from! Keep it up, and look forward to the video where you show us you can break 90! 😉
No question about it, you've been hitting your irons pretty cleanly in the last few months, but the pressure is on when EVERY strike counts. You're lucky to be playing and learning golf among such amazingly steady golfers, Tubes. Keep calm and perform. I love it. We are with you!
Don’t be too hard on yourself Tubes it’s still winter off the back tees on what looks like a very tough course. I learned a great way of forgetting about the bad shots, I play with a group of mates at the weekends and we play a comp between ourselves every weekend and it’s 50p every 3 holes for the best score and it makes you forget the bad holes and shots. If I start off with 3 bad holes my aim is to have 3 great holes on the next 3 and it eventually pushes me if I have a bad hole the next hole is going to be great. It eventually gets you to a point if you hit a bad shot you forget about it and all you want is your next shot to be great it will improve your golf and gives you an incentive to try and keep hitting good shots. Obviously you will have bad days where it doesn’t work out but it makes it easier to forget about them quicker. Love your videos keep them coming ❤
Well done tubes, great to see. Absolutely love the channel. Great camera work Scotty. tubes, ange and jimmy, all great. And the guests, commentary and chats 👌. Keep up the great work 👍
Well done TUBES just started watching your channel - just echoing other comments this was such a relatable round. Maybe next time think bogey on every hole and when/if you get a par it’ll lift your confidence (rather than expecting par on every hole) 👍👍
Well done Tubes. Great video. I can relate. Under clubbed so many times. 142 trouble at the front play an easy 7 and clear the trouble. Hope you do another. Your game has improved a lot. Golf’s about the next shot and not what’s gone on before 🏌🏾♂️⛳️👍
This is such a great video. It's so relatable, and shows the mental toughness you need to play the game, and just how much it impacts confidence, enjoyment and scoring. Props for sticking with it, and thank you for uploading it! Also, get rekt, Connor.
One of your best vids Tubes! It just goes to show how this game is 70% mental. I’ve played this game for 30 years now since a junior and I’m still figuring it out! Gonna get down to Pyrford for a game in the spring…looks good even for winter conditions. Keep grinding & enjoying it mate. 👍🏻🏌🏼♂️
Oh Tubes🙈🙈. I felt for you almost from the start. You gave yourself a hard time for a few bogeys early on but, in truth, 18 of them gives you 90. Take the bogeys all day long and when a putt drops it's a bonus. The sad truth of being a mid-handicapper is that we can par or even birdie any hole on the course on our day but the measure of a round is rarely how well you play your best shots/holes. It's how well you play your worst ones. When the head goes you have to forget it. You said that yourself. You don't need a psychologist for that, you already know it. Doing it is the tricky bit. It takes some serious minerals to answer critics like this and put yourself on the line. Bloody well done mate. Looking forward to the next one already💪💪💪
Mate ! I take my hat off to ya . Many would ignore it due to their ego . Not you , you’re a bloody decent humble guy . Massive respect . Love all you lots vids as for me you’re all relatable, I’m 17 years sober , a golf obsessive , fishing nut and a bit off key a lot .
Don’t comment on many videos on UA-cam, but this really felt different to me, as someone that has only just started out playing golf because of you legends I can massively relate to this video! Keep at it you legends!!
You and your bro are the legends no golf life without the dale brothers. You just produce top notch content one after another. And the bulldog gives us the bit of swav he can stripe a ball loves it with you guys. The 3 of you are playing good golf big ange needs to have a sneeky couple of beers soz tubes but he needs a wee relaxer and his golf will go to the next level he has it in the bag with you and jimmy playing as much together
Tubesy, what are your stock yardages? 164, into wind, in winter and you’re hitting a 7iron? That’s a whack into wind for a 15 handicapper this time of year. Only been subscribed to the channel about 6/7 months. Love the work all of you do, superb content boys.
This resonates with me so much! I can get around a course ok, handicap currently 21 but I always hit at least one 8 and it melts my head! Superb video as always you legends!
What a video, absolutely like watching an outer body experience as this me nearly every round. Well done Tubes. Please never stop what your doing guys. 👏👏
Tubes this is one your most relatable videos, I had a really poor round last week, wanted to sell the clubs and like you, just lost it. However, went out today and the magic is back. lol Up the golf life.
Let’s get the big man ange to do this I want to see this beast work his magic 💪🏼 well done tubes thankyou for making my weeks happier lots of love brothers ❤️
"Get 4 months extra on a 2 year plan at nordvpn.com/tubesange. It's risk free with Nord's 30-day money back guarantee!”
We love seeing the Bully and the special guests but dont under estimate how much we love seeing you lads play. Its very relatable to most of us. Great effort, mate.
Very relatable. I also say I’m a 16 handicap when I’m really a 23 plus 👍🏻 keep up the quality content
You lot are simply the best ! Just got back from doing golf life v talksport and read some of the messages. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you x
Tubes you legend, well done on giving Connor a good hiding
@tubesangegolflife when will you play with some randoms from youtube! like me, huge fan, watch all your videos
Loved the video, I'm going to buy you a " Get better soon " card 😂. Keep going mate 👍
@TUBESANGEGOLFLIFE absolutely brilliant, you set out with a goal and you achieved it. You showed the joy a high handicap golfer goes through every round.
Now you just need to learn course management. Sometimes it’s better to play for a bogey if you are a long way from the hole.
Either way keep playing and I would love to see you continue the single 18 hole videos to see what your official handicap is through Golf England.
Sorry mate, great content but, under normal circumstances you’d have had multiple penalties and possibly DQ’d by hole 6.
Probably the most relatable golf video I’ve seen on UA-cam. Love how you kept having a word with yourself. On another day you’d have shot 8-10 less. Also, as a 36 year old growing up on Soccer AM, you having a club in your hand instead of a pint suits you down to the ground 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Golf Life Legend.
Tubes , that was the most powerful golf video ever. You were so brave to even finish the round. I know you wanted to walk away after the quad but you stayed and by the end you were better. We all have seen how much you’ve improved recently so don’t get discouraged keep on going. Up the pink castle tees!
Tubes, Ange, and Jimmy. Prob won’t see this but just in case just wanted to say big thanks again for what you are doing. I suffer from awful anxiety and watching this channel is bloody brilliant, it’s just chilled and really helps me out when feeling rubbish. Best golf channel out there by a mile, it’s funny but also has great golf, great tips for amateurs and the way you involve us all along the way is great. So again just cheers to all of you 👍
And that’s why this is the best golf channel…. Tubes is a normal guy and an average golfer like the rest of us and loves the game. Content we can all relate to and enjoy. Golf life legend!
Love this Tubes. I’ve recently come out with my own alcohol issues and you have helped to give me the strength to be honest and open.
You are unapologetically yourself, and that is wholeheartedly inspirational in today’s world.
You mean more to people than you know. Go on the boy.
Billy Jessop.
Brilliant video, and relatable for anyone whose played the game.
You asked for tips, so here's my two (9.3 handicap):
1 - Safe shot - When your strike is off as it was today, it's a massive weapon to have just a 3/4 or even 2/3 swing where you club up and focus on just striking the ball well. At your handicap you've got shots to play with, and it's important to be able to reset your technique back to a good strike as easily as possible.
2 - Mindset - Losing your head costs so many shots. It's always important to remember why you're there and what you can realistically expect from yourself. At your handicap you will hit bad shots, but the ability to mentally persevere (in conjunction with point 1) will mean you score much better afterwards and most importantly you don't waste your day upset.
I play off 10 at my course, shot +11 front 9 on Saturday, -1 back 9 to finish to my handicap. It would have been easy to blow up, but just having both the above points in my locker lead to probably my most proud round yet.
Love the content as always!
The golf life is a hard life. But, big respect for taking on the challenge - can't be easy when its just you on show!
Great effort Tubes! Playing from the tips is hard enough, but having an off day makes it all the harder. Plus, you’ve got the pressure of the camera. 99% of us will never have that. You have been playing a lot better in the last few vids. Don’t stress about one round.
I played my first ever round of golf over the weekend, largely inspired by this channel, and shot 146. I’m praying for a round this good one day. 😂
Well done for beating the target, and for the continually great content. 👍
Keep getting out there mate!
Been there, done the score. Now in mid 80s. Well done to start and just keep working at it.
Tips I got from coach. Keep it simple- ( I watch Tom Saguto you tube) and learn your sections.
Learn your setup first. (Head, shoulders, arms, hands grip, feet, aim point)
Back swing (takeaway)
Downswing (hands close to body, elbow in)
Contact with Ball
Follow Through
What coach made me do was write each section down on paper with the "rules" he wanted me to follow. It was like being at school, seriously.
That way I did not just rely on what he said to me on range and really learnt golf.
Wish you all the best for the future.
16:32 I always put my T's, markers, pitch repairer and so on in my pocket that's opposite my hand with got the glove on, i got fed up of having the same problem you had here so switched pocket so now my hand with out the glove is now the one going into my pocket and life is so much easier :D
Love these videos, just starting watching this channel the last week and I’m hooked. I’m 44, a 6 handicap and been playing since I was 12. Watching good people like Tubes and Ange who are new to golf, go through the highs and lows of this great game is brilliant entertainment. We’ve all been there with the lows but it’s the highs that give us the bug to want to keep playing. Keep at it Tubes, you’ll break 80 before you know it, especially playing with the Legend Jimmy Bullard, his game is superb.
Best bits of advice I got in lessons as a high handicapper
1. Play within you limitations don’t think because green in regulation is 2 that 3 is bad. Break your shots down to what is comfortable.
2. If going for the green choose your club then put it back and get 1 club more. So if think a 7 take a 6.
You will reduce your score for sure
Ange the looks on 7 tee while Tubes looks for the Pink Castle are priceless. Talk about a picture says a thousand words. 🤣
That was class Tubes, even though you thought it was crap you broke 100 on a bad day, not every day is a good day. Do it again every few months on your own as a break 90 series, we’d love to see it and watch you get better and better! Then you can turn it into a break 80 series 🙌
That was the best video I've seen in ages .. definitely want to see more like this .. love it tubes
This is why we keep playing! When I play badly I have to go out play another round to prove I can do better, when I play well I have to play another round to keep it going. You’re one of us mate and us average golfers feel your pain and can relate to every duff, thin, chunk, slice, hook and 3-4 putts. Keep it coming guys have loved just watching a fellow golfer trying to keep it together ❤
Could watch Tubes playing a full 18 with Big Ange on comms every week. Tubes improved so much and it’s brilliant to see. Keep up this brilliant content fellas, really enjoy it.
Most relatable UA-cam golf video I have ever watched ! As soon as you think you're any good at golf, the golf gods remind you how tough the game is. I recently broke 100 for the first time ever, after a year of trying ! I shot 93! Felt like the world was lifted off my shoulders, I'd have celebrated your final tally like I'd won the champions league. Perspective is perspective!
Sorry to see you have such a tough time Tubes, my boyfriend and I love watching Golf Life and you because your energy and love for golf is so infectious. It was sad to see you get so down while playing. Golf is so much a mind and attitude game even though it's seen as physical. I'd love to see a video where you get a golf coach or psychologist on to talk about how to think about playing better and making it more enjoyable.
Keep your head up, we all know you can play better than this, but at the end of the day that doesn't matter, we just want to see you having a great time!
One of the BEST golf videos I've EVER watched Tubes. You went out with the wrong attitude, Never give yourself a target, just play each hole as It comes. When you start chasing It, It's over. Ange's face to camera at the start was classick Oliver Hardy. Great Video!
When Ange says "Connors buzzing, Connors salivating" 😂😂😂 great video, funniest golf video I've seen for a while! 👌
Love you Tubes what an absolute golf life legend 🏌️♂️ All been there so relatable and that’s why we love you
Well done Tubes. Golf is easy when you're playing well, but it tests your character when the chips are down. Your golf has come on leaps and bounds in the last six months. It's great to see you getting better and better. The Legends love you pal ❤️
Really well played Tubes. Lots of pressure and tough conditions. Try it again in spring/summer to give you a true reflection. Ange you had me in stitches more than once
Really enjoyed this video. Tubes, we are all human. Some days good, some days not so much!! You are a good golfer, and a great showman! Please don't be so hard on yourself and keep up the great work. Looking forward to seeing more videos!!
Best golf video I’ve watched all year, this was literally me on Sunday… head went after making a triple on a simple par 3. Once your head goes it goes but nice to know it’s not just me who does it.
Keep it up you GOLF LIFE LEGEND ⛳️
Tubes first of all congratulations on breaking 100 you definitely have break 90 in you, secondly you just went through what a lot of us go through every week and you had a camera in your face, love the show Golf Life Legends
I only found this channel a few weeks ago. I had given up the game for the last few years but you boys have inspired me to start swinging (a golf club) again and enjoy the game……keep up the great work and content and hope to catch up with you all next time you are in the UAE, you golf like legends!
This is real golf. It's relatable and I love to see it. All my rounds in 2024 have been like this pretty much - when even your usual strengths let you down it makes you angry, and sad, and feeling lost, but we keep coming back for more. Love the channel. ❤
Tubes, just want to say quickly how much we enjoy your channel. Been hard times, wife has been poorly but you always raise a smile. Keep em coming. Cheers
You boys are brilliant and I love the relationship between you and Ange, Tubes. Me and my brother never used to be able to finish a round together years ago because we were just way too competitive and driven by our egos. I'm a 10 handicapper and 100 round PL is nothing to be ashamed off - tough track off the yellows, let alone the back tees! Really enjoyable watch and laughed and smiled so many times - this is 18 holes of golf for the vast majority every week. Well done lads!
Thank you for this video! It's nice to see an honest round that we can all relate with. Keep up the good work ⛳🏌️
Tubes a truly brilliant video. So relatable to the average golfer. Seeing the melt down knowing you can strike a ball better and hit better shots. Glad you beat 100 and on another day you would have broke 90. Keep the content coming. Love Jimmy & the guests but equally love you v Ange and your videos with your mates are always a funny great watch.
Tubes you ange and Bullard are massive inspirations to us love watching the videos.
I could relate to every shot of this video being an 18 handicap and having played this fantastic sport for over 30 years. It is definately 90% mental. Love your channel, you are definately improving.
Don't need to tag a mate , it's my head that goes !!
Feeling the tension from you on every shot Tubsey , we've all been there and will be again and again mate. That's Golf Life !
I liked the fact that Pete carried on to the end. Some would have capitulated! Forget the bad holes , zoom in on the good holes and shots. You keep us budding pro's ever hopeful and wanting to continuing play this great game. Keep up the good work, no matter what the scores are. Thank you all.
One of the better most relatable videos I’ve seen for a little while mate. This is me and my mates playing a round, not a pro amongst us but always walk away with a shot we brag about for the next week/month 😂
Thoroughly enjoyed your battle to shoot under 100. Raw content that is so relatable to the majority of leisure golfers. Loved the psychological battle that you endured. Tubes and Ange, you Golf Life Legends.
It is a treat watching honest golfers. Don’t beat yourself too much over a game which is not your best effort. You are still a treat to watch.
Cracking golf coming of age clip. For those that have watched for a while its always been team events.. where can tubes contribute. This was solid and raw. Golf is a journey. This was the true test.. standing alone. Loved it. Tubes.. my tip: get a handicap and work out stableford scoring. Cos u will have quaddies... but in stableford they dont hurt so much! Love from aus
Great video. I truest believe losing your head on a golf course is one of the hardest things to over come. We all have our off days but we can clearly see you are better than 99 tubes. Keep plugging away #golflife
Glad to see realistic video tubes. We all have those games when you just lose the will. But we all go back out next time and go again. Good on the golf life legends. ❤
It happens to us all Tubes, please keep doing these videos as we will see you get better and better each time. My tip is play 6 mini games of 3 holes, so 1st 3 holes add up the total shots, then play the next 3 and add up just the total of those 3 holes and so on. It's a great way to reset so you can get your round back on track and improve it you play the same course.
We all have those days Tubes. You are definitely improving but you were playing on your own which is hard for anybody. We love watching your journey and the channel has a whole. Keep up the great work.
Great video lads. Best bit for me, is everyone being included (Scottie and Steve) and not taking it too seriously. Rarely do you see channels including the extended team and everyone there was supporting a solo effort under the spot light which isn’t the funnest way to play the game. Tee #9… I’d blame the bonfire! I’m a huge fan of the channel. Top work 👍
Class tubes. You’re simply the best mate. Your personality is second to none and without you, this show wouldn’t be the same.
Tough to do this under pressure but you did it.
You’re much better than that too, we clearly have seen you play so much better.
You could break 90 with a decent round.
Loved this video boys. Love seeing Bully ripping it up against the pros and the guests. But you boys are where it started and why we all came here to be part of the Golf Life family. Perfect way to sum up any mid-high handicapper golf. Smash it one day, retire the next!
As for losing your head on the quad bogeys... Got a mate who plays to his handicap as the course par as he goes, so he plays a par 3 as a par 4, par 4 as a par 5 etc, saves him a lot of heartache and pain and takes some of the pressure off. Might help... Might not. Keep your chin up, hope you didn't fall asleep by the end of this essay. Love the channel and love the boys. Golf Life, it's the only life we know!
That's my type of golf. You are out in the fresh air get over it, what a life you live.❤😊
another excellent video, we've all been through your pain and had rounds like this when the head goes. found this video so relatable when starting out, the pressure of playing for a score. when you look back the amount of shots you could have saved, would of easily broke 90. a good way to play is play level 5's try score 5 or less on every hole helps break 90 and give you achievable targets. keep the content coming and thank you from a Golf life legend 👍
Well done Tubes for starting the "real" journey of playing for yourself.(Seriously excited for you. Can see your passion.)
Just two pieces of advice.
1. Teach yourself to "Stay in your Box" (The Tee Box) when playing any shot. You are moving around a lot, especially after playing a shot and it appears you are early looking to see where
your ball is going and is one of the reasons, you become off balance after striking the ball . You are making yourself anxious before you even hit the ball.
"Keep Still" when playing your shot. ONLY concentrate on playing your shot (commitment) and NOT worrying where the ball is going to go.
The ball will look after itself after you hit it. Promise !! (Dont forget to set your aim point, EVERY time you play a shot..as Jimmy tells you from time to time LOL)
You will be seriously surprised how your shot making significantly improves distance and direction.
This way you will be seriously more mentally relaxed, and relieved because you have taken away your worry about direction, flight, distance etc etc.
2. You are not on Jimmy's level. Totally Accept that (for now). You cant get greens in regulation in par 3, 4 or 5 on their % levels.
Yes, I know you have been playing "Team" games which has unfortunately created "unrealistic" expectations to play shots with fairway woods etc which land out of bounds or in trouble.
Try and create the understanding that when you play on your own, you will play every par 3 in 4. Every par 4 in 5 and every par 5 in 6.
On a par 4, you take 3 shots with clubs you can hit comfortably, to reach the green. NO pressure. NO mess. NO overthinking and trying to hit too hard. NO out of bounds.
This way you will always be much closer to the green when playing your 3rd and NO pressure to try and play a 185 2nd onto the green as in Teams. Two putts and you 1 over.
On a par 5, even if you take 4 shots with clubs you can hit comfortably, you are much closer to the green when playing your approach shot, which takes ALL the pressure off your putting.
On a par 3, 2 to the green, 2 to put.
1 Over on every hole is.....90.
Just trying to create a new happy type of thinking(expectations) for you when playing your clubs and in course management, that will take all the stress away and make you start seriously enjoying your own golf.
Trust me. Your play will significantly improve beyond your expectations and you WILL be respected by EVERYONE when they see how you keep to your own disciplines.
Best of luck Tubes. Will be watching you.
Good advice I’m a 23 handicap and even I can see he’s not a 16 handicap. I think it’s all to do with playing with better players he’s also trying to hit the clubs further than he can I think he’s been short on every single shot like a 164 yard shot into the wind using a 7 iron he’s never going to get there.
@@alultfilm18Agree 100%
Brilliant Tubes absolutely spot on this is REAL golf especially off the back tees . That was a very hard course at this time of year with no carry and roll . We have all been there . Top man tubes keep them coming mucka 👍🏻😊
Bad day on the course there Tubes, but you kept on going and had a smile on your face, and you and the rest of the team are putting smiles on lots of faces, thank you and keep up the great "work' hehe.
Biggen talking about films and laughing and joking when tubes is giving himself a hard time is massive. Raising the mood keeping the spirits up. Exactly what a good caddy does
Tubes, dont ever give up after an 8 or above, we are never going to be scratch golfers its all about the fun and banter with your mates, i love the game for the fun. Some days are amazing others well you know.
Love the channel chaps x
Tubes, one of the best thing I’ve read for the mental side which has helped me is be angry about a shot for five steps then move onto the next shot. Clear mind, reset, do what you can do.
Keep up the great work guys, makes me want to get out and play after every video!
Loved it Tubes, golf is hard. Try to temper your expectations, as soon as you expect to hit a beauty, golf bends you over. Keep going, your game is definitely better but playing a medal is always tough. Love the content you guys.
Tubes....your a bloody Legend, its truly golf life....gotta take the lows....and enjoy the highs, great you were managing to still laugh on last hole. Great channel and keep the vids coming. Up the golf life!
Class effort Tubes, the simple and pure brilliance and frustration on one vid!
Absolutely loved this -‘it was real,honest and so relatable .Golf with a ‘card in the pocket ‘ it’s a different beast .PLEASE give us more .
Trust me tubesy, it was great to watch. I'm a bang average golfer, quite often my head goes, and it's so hard to get back. None of us are pros. So bloody well done mate. If the camera wasn't on, you would have stormed it. If I'm out there on my own I play well. Soon as I'm with someone, it's hit or miss. Loved this guy's. Always love the bulldog, but love you guys 2 ❤
Love it !! Brilliant video, well done Tubes you did it 👍. Proper demonstration of how much the mental game impacts performance.
Great video guys. I haven't played for a few years but I could totally relate to this. Stick with it Tubes, you beat the booze you will crack golf mate and give us some joy along the way.
That was awesome, Tubes. Playing by yourself, no lads to bounce off, and pressure added from playing from the back - and you still won Conor’s “bet”. Ange’s face, though … 🤣 As for the quads, easier said than done but each new hole is starting again, and if you ignore the score and count it up at the end, it’s not so bad, so try to leave them behind 😊 Fabulous content (as ever), and, with respect, Conor can do one!! Big respect, Tubes, you GLL 🤩⛳️
Keep smiling, it was a fun watch. You're doing great.
Tubes you are a REAL golf life legend. We all feel your pain but the lows are what make the highs so good. If it was easy it wouldn’t be the game we love. We all need an Ange in our game to keep us sane. Great stuff.
Just want to reiterate so many comments… this is REAL golf and spot on to you Pete for putting yourself out there for all to see… just believe and commit to shots more and you’re playing in UK, it’s cold and wet with no roll…add 5-10 on to all clubs and you would have been in much better shape! Keep this legendary content coming chap 👍👌
Tubes is a LEGEND. Entertaining literally hundreds of thousands of Golf Life Legends. Don’t let trolls wind you up. If you are a 16 handicap, from the back tees on most courses your course handicap will be somewhere around 19 (91 gross). You only shoot your handicap 1 in 5 rounds so this score is right around a bang average round as I am sure it is for most people watching this channel (including yours truly). Up The Golf Life!
For me this is one of the best ever videos you done. To the average weekend golfer this is so relatable ... I'm a 22 HC and went from playing the best golf I've ever played at the end of last year to being utterly embarrassing at the moment, terrified of my driver and hooking my irons ..but golf is a journey and I have to remember why I played it to begin with, and that's to get out of my own head .... Lots of love tubes you're a legend
LOVE THIS! This is sooo like one of my rounds: the highs, the lows, the lowers! I usually only play 9 holes with mates so when I do play 18 I find it hard to keep concentration up. You could have easily shot mid 80s (or mid 110s!!) This is why we keep coming back...
Ange is absolutely fantastic in this video. Mary Rose was just priceless!!!!!😂😂. I reckon you two doing a reaction video would be money. Great work gents and you deserve all the success the channel is getting.
Keep your head up Pete, we aren’t here to watch tour standard golf we are here to watch you and your brother’s journey, doesn’t matter if you shoot 10 under or 100 over keep your head up, keep cracking your jokes and innuendo’s and the legends will get behind you what ever you outcome! Congratulations on breaking 100 from the backs now you can work on breaking 90 would love to see this as a series! ❤
Love the video, love the content. You asked for tips: in winter - club up (aim for the yardage to the back of the green). You left a lot short, which you can learn from! Keep it up, and look forward to the video where you show us you can break 90! 😉
Legend Tubes! We all get days like that, that the beauty of the game, but you did it. keep the content coming, you golf life legend!!
No question about it, you've been hitting your irons pretty cleanly in the last few months, but the pressure is on when EVERY strike counts. You're lucky to be playing and learning golf among such amazingly steady golfers, Tubes. Keep calm and perform. I love it. We are with you!
Keep your head up tubes mate. As you say that’s true golf. Love the videos, keep em coming.
Don’t be too hard on yourself Tubes it’s still winter off the back tees on what looks like a very tough course. I learned a great way of forgetting about the bad shots, I play with a group of mates at the weekends and we play a comp between ourselves every weekend and it’s 50p every 3 holes for the best score and it makes you forget the bad holes and shots. If I start off with 3 bad holes my aim is to have 3 great holes on the next 3 and it eventually pushes me if I have a bad hole the next hole is going to be great. It eventually gets you to a point if you hit a bad shot you forget about it and all you want is your next shot to be great it will improve your golf and gives you an incentive to try and keep hitting good shots. Obviously you will have bad days where it doesn’t work out but it makes it easier to forget about them quicker. Love your videos keep them coming ❤
Well done Tubes, loved that video, great to see you keep it together through the adversity. Big Ange next please for a break 80.
Well done tubes, great to see.
Absolutely love the channel. Great camera work Scotty.
tubes, ange and jimmy, all great.
And the guests, commentary and chats 👌.
Keep up the great work 👍
Well done TUBES just started watching your channel - just echoing other comments this was such a relatable round. Maybe next time think bogey on every hole and when/if you get a par it’ll lift your confidence (rather than expecting par on every hole) 👍👍
Well done Tubes. Great video. I can relate. Under clubbed so many times. 142 trouble at the front play an easy 7 and clear the trouble. Hope you do another. Your game has improved a lot. Golf’s about the next shot and not what’s gone on before 🏌🏾♂️⛳️👍
This is such a great video.
It's so relatable, and shows the mental toughness you need to play the game, and just how much it impacts confidence, enjoyment and scoring.
Props for sticking with it, and thank you for uploading it!
Also, get rekt, Connor.
One of your best vids Tubes! It just goes to show how this game is 70% mental. I’ve played this game for 30 years now since a junior and I’m still figuring it out! Gonna get down to Pyrford for a game in the spring…looks good even for winter conditions. Keep grinding & enjoying it mate. 👍🏻🏌🏼♂️
Video is so relatable Tubes, we all have bad rounds but thats golf and why we come back for more, keep up the good work mate 👍
Oh Tubes🙈🙈. I felt for you almost from the start. You gave yourself a hard time for a few bogeys early on but, in truth, 18 of them gives you 90. Take the bogeys all day long and when a putt drops it's a bonus. The sad truth of being a mid-handicapper is that we can par or even birdie any hole on the course on our day but the measure of a round is rarely how well you play your best shots/holes. It's how well you play your worst ones. When the head goes you have to forget it. You said that yourself. You don't need a psychologist for that, you already know it. Doing it is the tricky bit. It takes some serious minerals to answer critics like this and put yourself on the line. Bloody well done mate. Looking forward to the next one already💪💪💪
Mate ! I take my hat off to ya . Many would ignore it due to their ego . Not you , you’re a bloody decent humble guy . Massive respect .
Love all you lots vids as for me you’re all relatable, I’m 17 years sober , a golf obsessive , fishing nut and a bit off key a lot .
Enjoyed that! I’ve been exactly there. Golf is so hard - but we love it!
Well done Tubes, the ups and downs of golf right there. Fantastic content, keep your chin up 👍.
Don’t comment on many videos on UA-cam, but this really felt different to me, as someone that has only just started out playing golf because of you legends I can massively relate to this video! Keep at it you legends!!
You and your bro are the legends no golf life without the dale brothers. You just produce top notch content one after another. And the bulldog gives us the bit of swav he can stripe a ball loves it with you guys. The 3 of you are playing good golf big ange needs to have a sneeky couple of beers soz tubes but he needs a wee relaxer and his golf will go to the next level he has it in the bag with you and jimmy playing as much together
Tubesy, what are your stock yardages? 164, into wind, in winter and you’re hitting a 7iron? That’s a whack into wind for a 15 handicapper this time of year.
Only been subscribed to the channel about 6/7 months. Love the work all of you do, superb content boys.
This resonates with me so much! I can get around a course ok, handicap currently 21 but I always hit at least one 8 and it melts my head! Superb video as always you legends!
Well done Tubes lad. It's genuinely brave to expose your golf game like that. I only admire you more.
Fairplay for doing this video Tubes 👏
OG Golf Life vibes, we all love watching you play and improve 👍
What a video, absolutely like watching an outer body experience as this me nearly every round. Well done Tubes. Please never stop what your doing guys. 👏👏
Tubes this is one your most relatable videos, I had a really poor round last week, wanted to sell the clubs and like you, just lost it. However, went out today and the magic is back. lol Up the golf life.
Let’s get the big man ange to do this I want to see this beast work his magic 💪🏼 well done tubes thankyou for making my weeks happier lots of love brothers ❤️
