There is such a huge lesson here about the mental side of the game. Watching this straight after Rick's disastrous 'Break 75' round where we see Rick, playing badly, repeatedly set himself unrealistic targets, and then speak to himself in a horrible way when he fails to meet them. Pete when faced with the same situation is equally frustrated, but he articulates this calmly and simply states he wishes he was playing better. He doesn't give himself a hard time, stays in the moment, focuses on each shot individually as he plays it, and still enjoys the experience. Massive kudos to Pete for his mental toughness and displaying exactly the right attitude: just focus on enjoying doing something you love with no arbitrary expectations of a given result and you'll probably play as well as you are capable of on that given day.
My favourite series on UA-cam! Simon is an absolute baller, well done to him. Shout out to the lads filming and editing, loved the Ireland colours on the shot tracer too! Great work Finch & Co.
Thank you once again for allowing us to see these wonderful Golf Courses -- yeah we all know how you want to play well -- but on the other hand showcasing not just the courses but the people -- Well Done Sir Well Done.
Taking on a player like Simon on his home course was a helluva challenge Peter; kudos to you for taking him on. And kudos to Simon as well; what a player!
Great video, he was on fire and I don’t think there was anything you could have done. Brilliant series and I’m already looking forward to the next one. Love your easy relaxed way in front of the camera
What a beautiful round of golf, sir. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful scenery, weather, grass, trees - this video encapsulates the beauty of the game with solid sportsmanship and professionalism; all while wearing a smile.
Hi Pete, I have been critical of you before, however your attitude here was highly impressive and I have re subbed because I really enjoyed this and know you can play much better.
Really enjoyed this video. Love the different looks on shots with the tracer, especially the reverse angle on the par 3s. Liked seeing a tour pro just take his medicine and punch it out, something I need to remember out there!
Great content again Pete I like how you showed us the caddy and player conversations. It's interesting watching the decision making that goes into each shot.
Love these videos, great to see you 'over here' ;), playing some of our Irish courses. Would love to see one in Rosses Point, maybe next year. Keep them coming.
Was absolutely class watching it in person, video doesn't do the shot on 10 justice, that hook around the trees and up the neck to the green was the best shot I've watch live.
Great video, the golf course looked spectacular. Another one on the to play list. Simons clubs were on fire that day and his short game was A game. Just wasn't your day Peter huge credit how you played even if it felt like a nightmare round. Some shot on the 10th too. Hope to see another match like this on another Irish course in series 2.
Great video, loved the blank expression on some of the young spectators watching you hit some shots. Nice coloured shot tracers. Please can we have some more like this.
Loved this series Pete! I will say, I felt like the first episode was much more serious, which I certainly didn't mind (and it even seemed to help you stay locked in a little!), but the more casual vibes of the more recent ones also make for good viewing
Those first 4 holes were a perfect showcase of the difference between a 'pro' and a (former) 'tour pro'. Pete did well to hang in there. We need to see those last 5 holes that Simon said were the best on the course - a back 9 match with Pete starting 2 up would work.
Another great video, really enjoying this series, can’t wait for more of these next year. Just not your day Pete, we all have them annoyingly, take some comfort in the fact it was Simon’s home course.
Hard luck Pete , I've really enjoyed the series , great job to you and the team. I can't wait for the next series. enjoy the break. I hope you have enjoyed the Irish hospitality . Your always welcome here, Best of luck to you all. Slainte Noel
Great video Peter love your content! Shows the ups and Downs one of the biggest things I love about your channel, can't always win. Love it man thanks!!
No disrespect to Peter (who had an off day), but Simon showed glimpses of what it takes to win on tour. Position off the tee and sharp iron play to within 10 feet. No frills and gets the job done every time. Congrats on a winning formula and looking forward to seeing more.
Simon is.a top bloke won on my own course in clandeboye northern ireland followed him the whole final round and his iron play was top notch . Love these videos Pete
I've enjoyed all these matches! Hope to see more of them in the future. That course looked good. Shame we never got to see the holes that he said were the nicest at the beginning of the vlog. Guess I'll just have to visit it if I want to see them 😆 🤣

Fantastic to listen to the conversation between caddy and professional. Would really enjoy more of that

Just goes to show how good the top tour players are. It's ridiculous.
Pete, I love this series and your whole approach to playing golf. No matter what is happening, you enjoy playing and keep positive.
Thanks 👍
Really nice touch with the tracers being the flag colours. Love the series, love watching Pete, great editing guys.
Love the shot-tracer from behind the green on the par threes.
The shot traces showing the nations colors is a nice touch. Good job.
Also, I like the view from the greens on the par 3’s.
Thank you once again for allowing us to see these wonderful Golf Courses -- yeah we all know how you want to play well -- but on the other hand showcasing not just the courses but the people -- Well Done Sir Well Done.
Brilliant... The video doesn't do justice to the course... Makes it look a lot flatter than I remember!! Great series!
Best series you’ve done yet. Simon was superb for this. Looking forward to series 2!
The spectators/members showed lots of respect. Simons well known to be a ripper so dont be too hard on yourself with the result. Great video again ✌🏼
Love this type of video. Please continue these. They’re a great watch
Peter Finch....some killer stuff lately. Bravo 👏
Taking on a player like Simon on his home course was a helluva challenge Peter; kudos to you for taking him on. And kudos to Simon as well; what a player!
Brilliant video... Loved Petes comments - "nearest the pin is the winner" & "next hole the winner" Spirits high when you were behind is class!
Playing club Pros is definitely your best content, no one else is doing it, love it.
That's a god given talent playing with so much hands what a natural! 👏👌
Great video, he was on fire and I don’t think there was anything you could have done. Brilliant series and I’m already looking forward to the next one. Love your easy relaxed way in front of the camera
This concept is pure gold. Great stuff, and I love the commentary as always!
One of the best golf series on UA-cam tbh, so good, I look forward to these
Love to see golf vids like this- some people just make golf look effortless… 😅 love this series!
More of this content. Great to see these club pros giving love to their courses.
Love the series also love the way shot tracers matched the country’s being represented nice touch
A fantastic course. Played there this year during the heatwave we had. A tough course is putting it lightly!
What a beautiful round of golf, sir. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful scenery, weather, grass, trees - this video encapsulates the beauty of the game with solid sportsmanship and professionalism; all while wearing a smile.
Schooled.. your human and I have massive respect because we don’t always win but a win is we come back stronger on another day… thank you for this vid
Loved the coloured shot tracers!
liking the national coloured shot tracers, very nice touch that!
Brilliant video Mr Finch and what a place that is...
Love this series, more please! Win or lose, it shows the course at its best and how it should or should not be played.
Pete... more Ireland please! Best vids yet!
I really do enjoy this series. More please!
6:37 "Are you winning daddy?" Smile of the day
Great series, more please. The drone footage is brilliant well done Peter finch team
Hi Pete, I have been critical of you before, however your attitude here was highly impressive and I have re subbed because I really enjoyed this and know you can play much better.
Super player there, Stenson-esque with his ball striking. Great video.
Really enjoyed this video. Love the different looks on shots with the tracer, especially the reverse angle on the par 3s. Liked seeing a tour pro just take his medicine and punch it out, something I need to remember out there!
Great content again Pete I like how you showed us the caddy and player conversations. It's interesting watching the decision making that goes into each shot.
Love the format great videos
Awesome vid and love this series. Would have loved to see the final stretch of holes though even if the match is over.
Brilliant series, love that you can take it well when you're up against it Pete. You're the nuts because of your personality as much as your golf.
Awesome video as always Pete. I love the crowds at these things, always appreciative of a good shot
More of these, please!
Those English and Irish tracers are a nice touch 👌
Love this format Pete keep it up
Well done Pete. Love this series!
Love the par 3 angles.
Really like the shots from the green looking back at the tee.
It would be great to see another Irish series next year. Some amazing courses over here.
This was a tough challenge Pete. Great series. Simon's swing is so smooth it looks effortless, true example of letting the club do the work.
Liked before I watched it. That’s the pure trust 👍😂
First, :), That said, I do enjoy this format Challenging pros at their courses. Love it.
I did check after 20 mins how long of the video was remaining. The guy never missed
Loved the content even though the result didn't go your way I would say these videos are the most entertaining golf videos on UA-cam at the minute 👌👍
i love these matches i hope they keep coming
great video Peter, need more of these matches.👍👍👏👏
Pete don’t let it get in your head! Don’t over think and just play and have fun!
Love these videos, great to see you 'over here' ;), playing some of our Irish courses. Would love to see one in Rosses Point, maybe next year. Keep them coming.
this guy is one of the best representations of swing your swing lol, so slappy and soooooo goood
Playing tulfarris first time tomorrow. Would have been nice to get an idea of the last 5 holes! 🤣
Great vid. Thanks
Was absolutely class watching it in person, video doesn't do the shot on 10 justice, that hook around the trees and up the neck to the green was the best shot I've watch live.
Cheers bud, glad I could do something 😂
Love watching you play the pro at his own course series, Simon was very impressive on the day
great content, beautiful golf course, really enjoyed the different camera angles on the shot tracer.
Great video, the golf course looked spectacular. Another one on the to play list. Simons clubs were on fire that day and his short game was A game. Just wasn't your day Peter huge credit how you played even if it felt like a nightmare round. Some shot on the 10th too. Hope to see another match like this on another Irish course in series 2.

What a quality player the lad was plus a topman , his swing so easy and nice Pete , you tell he was a proper pro good game respect to you both 👏
Another great video, really enjoying this series, can’t wait for more of these next year. Just not your day Pete, we all have them annoyingly, take some comfort in the fact it was Simon’s home course.

Well done Pete, love the content, Great series , Pure class 👌🏌♂⛳
Great video Peter. This series has been superb. Looking forward to more next season.
Love this content, Pete! Brilliant stuff, thank you!!
Love the content great to see how the really good players play - shame heard the last 4 holes are the best 😅
Saw Simon at my club, Clandeboye. He won the NI Masters there. Loved the video.
Great video Peter love your content! Shows the ups and Downs one of the biggest things I love about your channel, can't always win. Love it man thanks!!
OUCH! Epic beatdown, but it happens. Love the series.
What a shot on the 10th 💪
No disrespect to Peter (who had an off day), but Simon showed glimpses of what it takes to win on tour. Position off the tee and sharp iron play to within 10 feet.
No frills and gets the job done every time.
Congrats on a winning formula and looking forward to seeing more.
Love the video. Only wish I could have seen the finishing holes of such a beautiful course.
Me too 😂
Simon is.a top bloke won on my own course in clandeboye northern ireland followed him the whole final round and his iron play was top notch . Love these videos Pete
Sometimes you just can't get in the groove and your oponent is on fire. This is the nature of a 1 v 1!
Great video, loved it thanks Pete and the guys
I've enjoyed all these matches! Hope to see more of them in the future. That course looked good. Shame we never got to see the holes that he said were the nicest at the beginning of the vlog. Guess I'll just have to visit it if I want to see them 😆 🤣
Mmm. That was a tough one Pete. Not sure you were on top of your normal superb golf game. Look forward to next series next year.
Not to nitpick, but that club on the ground was a 2 stroker. Great content. 19th century style. Two players having it out.
Hard luck mate! But very honest with the comments! If you miss the green or fairway…..it makes it twice as hard! Great video as always pal! 🤙🏻
love this series, gonna be another great one
