All proceeds of this video going to Doug? What a man!
I just found his email and sent him the vid. Hope he likes it!
And not a comment not replied to - no one deserves your success both on the golf course and online as much as you. I like to think I've been around since the start of the channel and have only seen both you and the videos improve immeasurably, we are all incredibly fortunate to have you on here. Well played Adam!
Thank you so much for the kind words. It's still difficult for me to believe there are so many people watching and enjoying, and I'm grateful for every last person who watches! Appreciate you sticking out the growing pains on the channel!
Caddie Doug has the laser eyes. My God his reads probably took 4 strokes off the card at least.
Course looks beautiful.
Holy crap what a difference Doug makes, his knowledge takes the guess work out of each shot so you can just concentrate on doing what he says. Playing with a clear mind is one of the most difficult thing for high handicap golfers as the confidence is not there yet.
Agreed! That round is easily half a dozen strokes worse or more without Doug.
I don't comment a lot but I've been watching for two years and Its awesome watching the channel grow and great to see your career round. Alot of golf content creators are not 100% honest with their shots and to see you shoot par knowing it's honest makes me respect you and your work so much.
This might be the coolest view I’ve ever seen on UA-cam golf.
What a series. This felt like the long awaited season finale to a tv series you’d been watching for years. Maybe that’s because I have been haha. Congrats on this great round Adam. Keep it up, excited to see where the channel takes you going forward
haha thanks bud. Hope it was worth the wait!!
I’ve never rooted harder for a UA-cam golfer. Nice round!
haha thanks so much
I swear, every good round of golf starts with what feels like 2 awful swings that treat you nicely. Well done dude, going low!
Lol agreed, and thanks.
Oh Adam … what a joy to watch.
Thank you!
Haha. At the end of this video I just smiled and enjoyed you two putting that. Man this made my week.
Man, I mentioned this in the video, but after holing out on 9, I really thought I had a chance of going even or under par on the back. I had just wedge in on 18 and thought, "holy crap, I could stick this close and go under par." Then, I pushed it a hair and it got a brutal kick, and suddenly I went from thinking about going 1-under to sweating about not 3-putting and shooting 1-over. Then, the putt REALLY had a chance of going in and suddenly it was "maybe I'll shoot 1-under!" again. A real seesaw of emotion!
Holy crap! What a round! I’ve had 5 scores from 80-83 and not broken 80 yet. Handicap down to 8.7 from 14.6 a year ago. This weekend it’s happening!
Congrats! You'll get there...and then they'll come more frequently.
The stuff that golf roadtrip dreams are made of - a great score on a beautiful course in spectacular weather.
Indeed, I'm so grateful to have dropped one great round during the trip!
Having Doug mentally freed you up to just focus on playing golf and not thinking about your swing mechanics, but just hitting the ball at an intended target. Most of your misses were not far off line. This was such a great video to illustrate what all those golf books talked about (Zen Golf, Elements of Scoring, etc.) mentally where you should be on the golf course. "The golf course is not where you give yourself a lesson" Thanks Adam!
Glad you enjoyed it, and great callout to Zen Golf! I haven't read Elements of Scoring. Will add it to the list.
I don't want to comment on your first caddie, you know haw good or bad he was. I want to comment on your second caddie. What a joy it would be to play Bandon with him! Always encouraging and, like you said, he REALLY knew the course. I've unfortunately had a couple of bad caddies (one who couldn't give me the correct number if his life depended on it), but golf is so much easier when you have a great caddie! Most of us can hit the ball in the direction we want to, but doubt causes us to flinch at impact. Having a great caddie tell you with certainty where to hit it removes that doubt! Great roun, Adam! I'm sure you tipped that caddie well!
I'm with ya! Aside from this trip, I think I've had caddies on 3 or 4 other occasions, and the difference between a bad caddie, a good caddie, and a great caddie is indeed immense. I can't recall who Doug caddied for on tour, and in any event you could just tell immediately that the guy knew the game and - as important - knew that course. I obviously wouldn't have carded that score without him, and believe me he got a healthy tip!!
I have been watching your videos from the beginning and I love your attitude! I'm the same way, just love playing.
Wish there were more of us out there.
Wow! Way to grind that out. That scorecard is a thing of beauty.
Thanks!
Lol, the golf sidekick shout out made me smile (not sure why, but don’t ask questions).

Hey thanks for being so honest with all of your videos. I can say in the last year you have helped me with so many parts of my game and to accept bad days as a way to learn.
Love this, and thanks for the kind words!
Hey, great shout out to Golf Sidekick.
My channel wouldn't exist without his + his mentorship. Waddaman!
Super stoked for you brother🎉
Thank you!
Thanks for the honest golf! Beautiful views!
Thanks!
Pretty awesome to have your career round on video
I have my all-time best round and all-time worst round (106) recorded!!
wow! I've watched your videos for a long time and that's the best I've ever seen you play and what a place to do it. I played Pacific last spring and it is not an easy course and those greens are slick. Well done Adam, well done!
Thanks so much. I figure if you play enough golf, one day it has to come together. Very fortunate that I did it at Pacific!
Love the peacefulness of your videos. SwingTweaks helped me immensely with my driver and thanks to my first tweak I was able to break 90 twice so far this season! Keep up the great content Adam!
Thanks for the kind words. And great to hear this SwingTweaks feedback. I've never jibed with a product/channel sponsor as immediately as I did with SwingTweaks. It just makes perfect sense to eschew the in-person component of the traditional golf lesson (especially when considering the price). I'm really glad that people are enjoying it! Yes, they're an official sponsor, but I'm a believer and I'm going to keep singing their praises!
A nod to the Baus… Always classy Adam. Thanks for the great content as always!
Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for the kind words!
Congrats Adam!
Thanks!
Congrats!!! So happy for you!
Thank you!
Nice round... Big Respect!
Thank you!
Congrats Adam!!! Amazing!!!
Thank you!
What a great round! Best I've seen you play
Thanks!
That second round was incredible! Congratulations Adam !
Thank you!
CONGRATS on the new low round! Love watching the vids
Thanks!
Key stat; 13-18 (72%) GIR. That's scratch level accuracy! Super impressive. Combined with 10/13 fairways hit, that's the formula for low scores. A pleasure to watch, congrats!
Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, 13 GIRs is definitely atypical for me, and I'm glad I was able to capitalize!
Also the putts were insane
Thanks for sharing these rounds Adam! It's tough to stay grinding on the rough rounds like the first one. Good to see you reset and finish par on the second one. I recently went through a rough patch of 10 rounds... never been so frustrated in my life but then I shot the best round of my career eight after. Golf is such a funny game. Best of luck.
Funny game indeed. PBs can come in the middle of terrible stretches, and I often follow up PBs (or near PBs) with big numbers.
Caddies read was perfect, you hit it through the break
Upon rewatching, I agree.
That fair dinkum made me shed a tear. Awesome stuff. 🎉
Thanks for the kind words!
Back nine almost more impressive than the front 👌🏻🔥
Thanks!
great round! great caddie! i've played Pacific 10-12 times over the years. Toughest course on the property. This is not the first time i've seen a caddie bring out the best in someone and improve their score by 10+ shots. Well done sir!
Thanks, and indeed, Doug saved me innumerable shots during this round.
Congrats Adam! Index must have taken a hit!
Lol yeah it dropped to 5.2 after this round. I think it was only a few weeks prior that it was up in the high 7s.
Gotta love golf!
I do!
Awesome stuff Adam....and Doug.
Would certainly have been a handful of strokes over (or more) without Doug!!
Beautifully done Adam, best channel on youtube for golf in my opinion. Simple content, been trying to adopt your mental game in my own as well!
Thanks so much for the kind words. My vote still goes to the Playa in Chief!
Great series of videos Adam. Always enjoy watching what you put out.
Thank you!
Nicely done!! Such a great setting.
Thanks!
what a round and such a perfect played back nine Adam. 9 pars in a row. Keep it up.
Thanks!
First time watching your channel, and what an amazing sight to behold!
Loved the contrast between each of the two rounds. Perfectly encapsulates the mercurial nature of the game. Doug obviously played a significant role, but kudos to you for such a great scorecard on round 2.
The difference was like night and day. Captivating content - well done!
Incredible round Adam, well done. Loving the channel, keep it up.
Love the pairing - thanks for bringing us to Bandon with you!
Thanks for joining!
Just a great video. Thanks for putting this together.
That's an amazing round Adam and truly inspiring! Thanks for the great video!
Glad you enjoyed!
30 putts on those mammoth sized greens is incredible. It's been a while since i have had one of those "unconscious" rounds , but it's fun to see someone else get one on video. Great JOB!
Thanks so much for the kind words. I wish I had more of these rounds lol
Inspiring video, Adam!
Adam - you should try reading some of Joshua Medcalf's books! He is the club champion at my club (San Diego Country Club), and writes from the perspective of a golfer and a life/mental coach. From Hack to Scratch or Pound The Stone are probably his most relatable books and reflect well on some of the emotions guys like you and I experience on the golf course. I feel like I am improving on my golf journey as you are - taking more club and just going for contact with my irons and wedges as I am knocking on the door of a round in the 70s. Joshua took the same path to become club champ. Thought you might find that shared connection interesting. Awesome to watch you take down Bandon like this!!
Wow! I messaged you a few years back when I lived in Cary and often played Lochmere after work. I’m thrilled to see your channel has grow so much since then. Keep it up man. 👍👍
Nice! Like the @GolfSidekick call out on planting feathers. Subscribed to both your channels. A lot of good mental coaching from you both.
Waddaman! Thanks for the kind words.
Awesome round bro, stoked for you!
Thank you!
Well done Adam. That's an unbelievable round. 3-under for the last 14 holes! I've followed your channel for a couple of years now and I use a lot of your tips in every round. I'm down from 26 to 18 since I started watching your videos. Matched my best score of 85 last weekend too. Onwards and upwards for us both!
Awesome man, congrats!!! And thanks for the kind words.

so so so happy for you adam. Well played!
Thanks!
Great job man!
Great composure to come back and hit that second round!
Thank you!
Damn man 10 pars in a row is amazing for any handicap golfer, you were dialled in
Thanks!
Yes! I love when you upload
3 more coming before August!
Thanks for the content. If that swing can shoot even par, I know I can. I needed this
Lol thanks.
This is just the video I needed! I took a lot from your level of focus but also zen like state when entering the back. I’ve even par on the front a few times before, but I haven’t found the right state of mind to bring it home on the back nine. I’m either putting too much pressure on myself or am too aloof..
Also liable to shoot 90+ on any given day so I like that you included your terrible round (although I would have watched it all the way).
Congrats on the 71!
Thanks for the kind words. Indeed, for every 70-something round, I'm sure I have one (or more) 90+ round, so I certainly stop and appreciate these ones.
That is one amazing looking course. Wow, what a place to card such a personal milestone.
when he counted by his steps, and said 105 its crazy amazing.
Awsome Round on an Wonderful Course,Cheers !!
Adam having himself some swing sauce/sauces at the turn. My guy.
wow! great round!!
Incredible round. Congratulations!
Thank you!
Dude, love your channel. Congrats on the incredible round. Doug is a fucking legend. Thanks for sharing both your highs and your lows with us. From a bad but passionate golfer: much appreciated.
Congrats on the round! I played Pacific in May. Those bunkers are no freaking joke!!!
Right?! I feel like video undersells how penal some of those bunkers are!
Congrats my guy! Inspiring me to keep striving to break 80 for the first time.
Keep grindin'!
Great video Adam!
Thank you!
Always enjoy the rounds at these great looking courses, love the content man. If there's anything I've picked up on it's either manifesting a good or bad shot before the swing, I knew that hybrid on hole 3 was getting topped the second you said it was the worst club!! You've taught us better come on! 🤣
Right?! It's hard to practice what I preach 100% of the time. Sometimes I'm just not feeling it and it's hard to pretend otherwise.
Awesome job!!!! You were a gold fish the next day. Having a great caddy can definitely calm your nerves and keep you focused.
Thanks, and agreed.
I’m a Bandon dunes caddie and just came across this video! This is so awesome dude! Great playing in that second round, pac dunes can eat ya up!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 well played and great content
Golf is a crazy game, isn't it? Nice playing
haha thx
The caddy’s read was good if the pace was correct. You hit an aggressive pace and should taken that into account.
Good call
Great video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
WOW! I love it Adam. Golf is so crazy. My PB is 3 over several times. I love that you got through 18 so well. Jitters must have been BUMPING.
Thanks! Until this round, my prior best (aside from a round on a short course in Palm Springs) was 2-over. I definitely began to feel it on the back 9. I was mostly even keeled although, like I said in the video, I was very nervous hitting my tee shot on 17.
Throwing a like and comment for the recognition of the Playa in Chief. Love it
I really liked the elevated tee on hole 3!! Course looks great and pretty foggy out there!! The weather on the second round was really nice and so was your golf!!🏌♂⛳😀👍
Thanks! It really is amazing how much conditions can change there day to day or even hour to hour!
have been playing to an 8 handicap for the last 6 months and my last three rounds were 88 103 105 😳 crazy to see how you are able to keep your cool when nothing is working on the course. keep up the good work 🙏🏽
Thank you! I think part of the reason some of us have a hard time keeping our cool is that we're misled into believing that we should always play at or near our handicap. It's for that reason that I try to include the 90-something rounds on the channel. Golf is hard.
Congrats on par golf!!!
Thank you!
Great golf at a great place. Congrats on the even par round!
Thanks so much!
On a bad round -- CHANNEL YOUR INNER DOUG
Haha yes
Doug has caddied for me at Bandon and he is THE BEST.
Waddcaddie
Nice round Adam 👍
Lets go! Swing tweaks looks like something i could use…signing up!
I've seen you play, you could use it :p
Only rule of planting feathers is no planting on the green! Thanks for the fun vid.
Fair! Glad you enjoyed!
Man your driver was HOT in that second round.
Keen to know what you've been working on to get so much more distance recently, it's night and day!
Thank you!
My driver has really run hot and cold for a while now. This round was actually recorded almost a full year ago, and since then my driver has gotten cold and then hot again.
I actually don't think I gained meaningful distance until about a month or two ago (a better fit driver helped), it's just that the rollout in August on a links course (like in this video) compared to Vancouver golf in the Winter (where it's cold and soft) are drastically different. If I go into a simulator and hit a good drive, it carries 230-240. So, in Vancouver in the Winter, that drive may only carry 220 and roll out to 230, compared to Bandon in the Summer where it carries 240 and rolls out to 270+...
Par at Pacific Dunes is something to be really proud of, congrats man!
Awesome video 💯
Thats pretty amazing
Sick round man, congrats!
Thanks!
"I may not be a scratch golfer, but today I played like one." Nice round Adam!!
Thank you!!
