OMG thank you!!! Finally someone agrees with me on the ten finger grip. An ex golf coach kept trying to make my son change his grip to interlocking or overlapping for no reason other than he told him if he wanted to look like a real golfer he needed to change from what I had taught him. I’m left handed and had to learn on my own when I was a kid. I broke my left hand in three places using the interlocking grip by catching a very hard surface on a 7iron shot. This may not make sense but it happened and it was everything to do with me having those fingers interlocked. Anyway sorry for the ramble but your comments made me very happy. I almost teared up when I heard you speaking on it. Please do a video or a series of videos on gripping the club and the old school myths that don’t seem to do anything. I think the short thumb method vs long on the left hand for lefties right hand for righties has way more of an effect on the shots than the three different grips.
Have felt the recent 4ball videos have become a bit samey. This is probably the best vlog you've ever shot, really nice to watch. Coach v Lockey always makes the best videos (provided Coach stays in the match past the 12th hole)
Great fun as always, #drawisawin. But missing the zooming in to see the ball landing!? That’s one (of many) details that make you better than all the other tube vloggers out there. Make the zooming great again please.
Fully agree with ur comment regarding interlocking grips... I’ve always used interlocking all my life (20yrs) as that’s what I got originally taught but I’ve been developing knuckle calluses where I interlock so this year I changed to 10 finger baseball and I’ve been hitting the ball longer and more solid all season and no calluses! #10fingeralltheway
Totally agree with what you're saying on a 10 finger grip I've recently changed my grip to the baseball Style and have so much more control more accuracy more feeling and more connected swing as I don't use my hands as much now
Awesome course, bloody good entertaining. I don’t care if some shots were out of focus or framing whatever. I laughed a lot and that’s what matters! Badger!!!!!!
Mark Crossfield absolutely man! A guys wrote a comment down below, that some shots aren’t in focused, that’s why I said even it is I don’t care. I like the new look as well a lot, cinematic slomos, smooth movements with the gimbals you have, double camera work, great cutting. But a that doesn’t matter if you couldn’t tell the story or transport the emotion and fun. Which you do bruh! Thank for giving me almost everyday at 8pm (Berlin time) a little bit of fun and laughs. Appreciate that a lot!
Mark, thank you for saying it yet again...10 finger grip is perfectly fine. I have a severely bent pinky finger called Clinodactyly. Basically, my pinky looks like a boomerang and it hurts to overlap or interlock. I had a coach tell me I would never be a good golfer with a 10 finger grip.
Good on you Mark with the grip, I started out with the baseball grip many moons ago, tried interlock for a couple of years with varying degrees of success but started to loose confidence so reverted back to baseball grip and have stayed with it ever since. Some very good golf with the odd little hiccup lol on a smashing looking course, one very good hole after another.....really enjoyed the vlogs
Mark, I too had a case of the chunks and blades with my chipping when I returned to golf and now I also use the 10 finger grip for chipping and I feel I have much better control. I also wonder why 10 fingers has never been taught because it certainly gives you better grip - and as an example, in tennis no one would hit a two hand backhand with any fingers overlapping - seems like a relic of golf that might one day disappear
Some watching are late for work and I am late at work and late for dinner - all because we want to watch the muppets. You guys are obviously doing something right!
I for one don't mind the new filming/editing- you've gotta have crack at it. Someone's been reading about framing and composition methinks. I'm sure the process will be refined and Coach will cut out some of the skull shots. Auto focus struggling to keep up at times. At least it's a different approach to change than filming somene from the side while they talk into a different camera to show you've got a film crew ( I won't mention any names- but it's all the others...). Added bonus. I've been here long enough to go without the Parfield prattle and duff-chip excuses, I'm just here for the sock game now. Up the Army!
Mark could you do a video on golf grips and the pros and cons? You may have one perhaps in your archives but some up to date muppet analysis would be welcome
Cryptotrader doesn’t seem to hold Lester back and there was an article in Today’s Golfer where the pro said it can generate more power! It’s NOT how but how many!😉
Mark, could you do a video explaining the advantages or disadvantages of a 10 finger grip. Ive gone backwards and forwards between vardon and ten finger, but because of coaching ive tended to try and not go 10 fingered. Was i right all along?
When you get a chance Mark can you go through the difference between a ‘toe’ ball and massive slice and how to fix because I suffer from the same phenomenon several times around. Thanx.
Have you been using a new camera on these last few course vlogs? I know you were trying a different style, but it seems like the camera itself is having issues with focus. Even without the pin in the foreground, if you guys were hitting from 30 yards away you were blurry. I had to double check the video quality. For the new style, I feel like most of us like the old way. I did like seeing the ball take off on some of the new camera angles. More ball tracer was also nice, and including some approach shots with the tracer. I think the draw of your course vlogs will always be less about the style and more about the substance, though. We enjoy watching like we're there to see all the shots and hear the banter.
Hi Coach. Do stand slightly closed at address for all your clubs, or is that a camera angle thing? Looks like to move your right foot progressively more backwards as you settle over the bag?
Mark id be interested in a video about your 10 finger grip speech. i’m a 10 finger baseball grip on my irons and wedges but have been told many many times over the years it was wrong an i should interlock.
Very enjoyable game played on a fantastic course, is it against your “Muppet” rules not to play a provisional ball when you are not certain, when you played that desert course in America a provisional would have won one hole, that said, it would have taken away the mountaineering, wedge damaging hack to the green, crampons should have been provided. Why is a shot with backspin a badger, never having achieved backspin I might never need to know? Keep up the content it’s good to hear what you are trying to play ahead of the shot, makes us people that don’t know what’s going to happen until after we’ve hit it realise the difference in skill levels.
bdiddy8239 pretty sure he’s just got one t300 mate , a 6 iron. It gapped better with his yardages I think. Could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that’s what happened.
sorry to say boys but lots of unfocused images and lots of close ups of the back of necks- is it a new camera? Not the usual quality altho the banter is still fun.
Paul Kelly why would you want to look at the back of a neck when there’s a ball bouncing down the fairway? What’s wrong with Jess giving his opinion on the new format, I completely agree with Jess, I’ve loved spending hours watching the videos from years back, couldn’t watch more than a few minutes each of the last three.
@@justwayne4785 each to their own mate, I just like watching the videos for their humour and occasional good/great golf. I can accept the odd back of neck shot.
I'm liking the 2 camera green approach shots but I miss the tee banter when it is replaced with music slo mo. I also miss seeing where fairway shots are going because of close ups on the back of the head. Not trying to whine just trying to give feedback.
All good and do t worry zooming on ball la song is not gone 👍👍 The tee shots with slow mo have no banter so you are not missing anything I promise. Some tee shots are just hit 👍👍
@@MarkCrossfield Thanks for the reply. I thought you had asked for feedback on the new format but I think I'm late to the party. Thanks again for all the great entertainment and info/ help on the other videos
I do like these videos, quality and variety is excellent... can’t say I see the importance of filming the back of each other’s necks though?? Is this some sort of weird European golf porn? 😏
Grip controversy.... I just can't hit the ball if I use a baseball/10 finger grip... Literally I can't hit the ball... Top it fat it shank it maybe but strike it... Nope.
What’s the best course you have played in Spain?
El Chaparel,
PGA Cat, stadium course - hands down. Really hope you do that next.
Loving the new videos btw ... splitting the camera work etc.
Gordon Gourlay yep Stadium up next week. Great course.
Barceló Montecastillo. Just south of Jerez. Played there in June this year. Stunning course and accommodation was superb.
Agree with Mathew, MonteCastillio. Used to play the Volvo masters there

Great mat guys and a fair result - looks like a magical place ! Nice!
Love the flip and clip at the end.... up the Army !!
Some of my favorites. Just the two stars battling it out. You make this game even more fun. Thanks
Seriously awesome video series this one! Sensational stuff, you blokes are funny as!
Agree about grip.. look at putting grips.. cross handed, claw, prayer ! ( the best grip ), and many more for the yippers!, Great vid guys xx
Great series, really top notch and so much fun to watch. Well done!

@@MarkCrossfield I like that.
A lovely looking Course and a great result. That was a superb putt on the 17th Mark, such a pity that it appeared to defy gravity! 👌🏌🏻♂️🏌🏻♂️⛳️
Played boys. Great series again!
Fun video for sure! Loved the golf course.
love those classic duo matches! Great banter...

1st to comment, yah. Got to say Brah,the new longer format is making me late for work each day here in NZ, but I don’t mind one little bit. Loving it.
Thanks bruh we love it too
Craig Prior All Blacks for the cup🤜🤛👍
Well done Matt, 22:16 that strike sound is fantastic.....!
Little sad now that that’s over I must say. That course looks like perfection, especially being played by two lovely boys! Always a pleasure 😃
17 mins 14 secs - The Army have waited a long time for that shot. They were whooping with the leader.
Really enjoying this one place looks so,fun and playable greens are awesome👍Thanks for sharing guys👏
Army on 🏌cheers from NorCal 🍸
Brilliant stuff - thanks guys. Gosh I don’t understand why you haven’t got over a million subscribers at least...... come on people!!?
Totally agree with what you're saying on a 10 finger grip I've recently changed my grip to the baseball Style and have so much more control more accuracy more feeling and more connected swing as I don't use my hands as much now
That place is now on my bucket list...purrrfect!
BADGER!!!! Gets me every time!
I must've missed something. I don't get Badger. I'm American and I've heard the terms ju ju, do do, jizz, zip, lol!
This was great, very relaxed and humourous.
That's a win for the Army! Good stuff....
OMG YESSSSS love the comment on 10 finger grip. Switched to it last year and so glad i did. so much more comfortable. Teaching my kids the same
Awesome course, bloody good entertaining. I don’t care if some shots were out of focus or framing whatever. I laughed a lot and that’s what matters! Badger!!!!!!
The shots are very much in focus thanks for watching bruh we like the new look. Cinematic 👍

“That was not a good hole ... but we did film it, so you’re welcome!!” 🤣🤣
Two 15 second advertising clips which couldn't be skipped brilliant
I went to the baseball grip a couple of years ago Mark. It definitely feels more natural. Great vlog as usual gents!
The boyz back Vlogging dont get better than that for a weekend off start
Mark, I too had a case of the chunks and blades with my chipping when I returned to golf and now I also use the 10 finger grip for chipping and I feel I have much better control.

I've been 10 figering it and have had the same feel. I also started in baseball so it's more natural for me.
Skipping holes deprives us viewers. I for one enjoy every shot, no matter how seemingly boring.
Some watching are late for work and I am late at work and late for dinner - all because we want to watch the muppets. You guys are obviously doing something right!
A suggestion. Zoom in on the ball, not the back of his head.
Perhaps Interlocking grips were probably needed for the thin leather grips they used to use
A draw is a win for the army!
@11.30 I went ten finger about two months ago and the improvement in strength, strike and confidence has been amazing. Who'd a thought?
I like your opinion about that 10 finger grip, maybe make a video about it?...
Lovely
never up never in coach, come onnnn :) x

That's not like you to have a twitch on the last hole Mr Parfield lol. #ARMYWIN
Draw is a win!!! #ARMY
I’ve always played 10 fingers and had the piss ripped out of me 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙈🤙🏻🇬🇧
Cryptotrader doesn’t seem to hold Lester back and there was an article in Today’s Golfer where the pro said it can generate more power! It’s NOT how but how many!😉
What a finish?!?!?! All I can say is... "BADGA!!!"
Mark seemed to have a noticeable overswing on 15th tee and awaiting all the snide comments about coach using a pink castle tee!😉
Mark, could you do a video explaining the advantages or disadvantages of a 10 finger grip. Ive gone backwards and forwards between vardon and ten finger, but because of coaching ive tended to try and not go 10 fingered. Was i right all along?
Beautifully executed divot repair there coach 😂😂😂
When you get a chance Mark can you go through the difference between a ‘toe’ ball and massive slice and how to fix because I suffer from the same phenomenon several times around. Thanx.
You bet its the All Blacks for the Cup, and while we are at it....go Danny Lee and Ryan Fox ! !

i like a bit of badger but i also like a bit of fox
With badger being the new muppets golf term, what happens now to soren? Will it ever come back 🧐🧐🧐
Question? Does coach own any pants/shorts that are not light grey?
Just out of curiosity, why did you switch to T300’s, Mark?
bdiddy8239 pretty sure he’s just got one t300 mate , a 6 iron. It gapped better with his yardages I think. Could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that’s what happened.
sorry to say boys but lots of unfocused images and lots of close ups of the back of necks- is it a new camera? Not the usual quality altho the banter is still fun.
