I think I have tried to “Like” this video, about four times during the duration and I realize that I already have every time, Peter Finch In 🏴 love it!
Wonderful vlog - really enjoyed all of it. Have to say that Ruben sounds a bit like Andrew Cotter; great dry sense of humour. Really hope things go well for him in his career Cheers
I played the Championship course the day after Padraig Harrington won the open in 2007. Same tees as on the Sunday, stands still up too. I was level par after 6 but ended up shooting an 82. Still one of the best rounds of my life. The double bogey on the 16th ruined the round though. I got on as part of the press day as many of the press pack chose not to play.
I love this place. Played it in 04 and 05. In 04 I started double, triple and then double again before I realized I needed to do something. Made an eagle on the back nine par five with some other good shots and finished with a 85 by making a forty footer for par on 18. It will eat your lunch even when you’re a good player and I was so lucky to have a young man on my bag who was a local extremely good player. I’ll never forget the couple from Norway clapping on my eagle putt as it brought me being unconsciousness. Remains like a very good dream to me and can’t say enough about that magical place. If I remember correctly for a local there it was 25 pounds for a year to play there. Yeah, sickening when I think what I paid for one round.
Pete, I know we are trying to use this putter for more than just a couple weeks like all the others, but I still haven't seen you putt as well as you did with the LAB golf putter with anything else.
This was great craic lads. Hope lindsay keeps working hard at his game and gets better. Great score around that course for both of you in those conditions too.
I played Carnoustie back in 2013. Still remember going from bunker to bunker on the 8th for a triple. I hit 3-wood into 16 and made par. Two 3 irons on 17 for another par. Par on 18 for a 75. Played with my dad and brother. Absolutely magical experience!
Me and a mate went for a swim where the Barry Burn meets the sea when we were up there working on Monifieth Tesco........crystal clear but a little fresh, even in the height of summer!!
Obviously it erks you tour pro and + handicap guys but it makes me feel so much better to see even you guys can struggle on any given day. Another cracking vid Peter and best of luck in the future Ruben 👍🍀
I've only played Carnoustie once from the white tees - it was a very windy and rainy day and I shot a 108. I pared the 9th and 11th and bogeyed the 5th, 7th, 12th, and 16th. Not my best by far, but it was still fun playing this famous links on a really challenging day :-)
I would argue the Ocean Course at Kiawah is the world's hardest. On a windy day, it is impossible to play - except for the best touring pros. Still, Carnoustie looks pretty daunting. Great video.
I've been lucky enough to play it. It's tough but it's by no means noticeably more difficult than most links courses by design, particularly if the rough isn't up to the knees. Great course though, I can vividly remember nearly every hole bar maybe 11,12. The 3rd hole is a thing of beauty, as is the final 3 holes.
How different it looks without all the grandstands around. I was half expecting the full "van der Velde" on the 18, but I guess the par was much more satisfying for you 😀
The first tournament I ever actually sat down and watched every day was Molinari’s Open at Carnoustie. Which was the week I started golfing. The championship course there is my dream course. My goal is to lower my handicap enough and one day make a trip over there and play it.
I played there I shot 87 but it was the year the open was going to be playing there the fescue grass was chest high and the primary rough grass was knee high the caddies told us the members were complaining about the heigh of the rough also the first 6 holes were played in a driving rain storm aka caddy shack .
I shot 103 off mid-tees in some of the worst golf weather I have ever played. Course truly lived up to it's nickname of Carnastie, but still had memorable time!
Being completely honest, after watching you for a few years now, you look way more comfortable putting with the "double wide" style blade putter. I don't know what it is about that double bend Mizuno but you don't look comfortable with it. Even during your head to head putting video your stroke looked way more comfortable/confident with the Evnroll er2 slant neck. Great content though! Loving it from the east coast of Canada 🇨🇦
Me too! If it’s above 10mph, I struggle so much. A little wind is ok because it makes you think about your shots. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. lol
Played it once April before the open with low rough and flat calm, still a challenge. Volunteered at the open that same year, hard getting bearings on it without all the grandstands
@@cameronknowles6267 the day I played it there were a group of Americans in the 3rd tee and we were on the 6th tee when suddenly there was all this gunfire. The Americans hit the deck while we all did with wtf expressions on our face. They didn't realise the firing range was next to the golf course🤣
I love your stuff Peter, have been watching for years. Don't wanna be THAT guy, buuut... ...you're at one of THE finest Golf courses in the world - where is the energy? Where is the enthusiasm? And don't get me started on the elevator music sprinkled in through the video. I should be going away feeling warm and inspired after watching this. Instead it was just 'meh'. Massive missed opportunity..
Nobody believes me but I took up golf up in June / July of last year and I shot 84 when I played it in August of the same year!!! Since I’ve started I managed to get down to a handicap of 7.5
Pete please inform me what you’re wearing on your hand? I injured my trailing wrist and struggle to make it through 18 without hitting one-handed the last few holes 😢
Ight none of ya'll will probably get this but that junior members voice sounds a lot like Kevin McKidd who voiced 'Soap' from the Call of Duty campaigns. And before you tell me it's just because their both Scottish go listen to both voices lol
I’m new to golf, played 2 18’s and been to the range 3 or 4 times. So still very new, anyway I see a lot of people saying “it was a good putt” like you did on the birdie effort on the 11th. Or “good drive” when they’ve landed in the rough… Is this just to try keep moral high? Or is there something else about it that was good that I’m missing? Because in my mind as a fresh golfer, it didn’t go in the hole so how could it be called a good putt and rough isn’t fairway so… I’m sure you get my point. Please dont bite my head off, I’m not trolling and that’s a serious question!
The hardest golf course I ever played I shot 130. Lost dozens of balls and broke a few clubs along the way. You guys should check it out, I think it was called the "Beginner's 9 hole Pitch n Putt course".
I grew up in Carnoustie and the 3 course membership was I believe £10 a season from memory for anyone who went to school in Carnoustie 👍 god knows what it is now but I can't imagine it's more than £50
5:53 best bunker shot I've seen in my life 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was a sa-hand wedge shot
I got caught doing something like that by my brother and dad when I was15 back in 1985. They STILL tease me about it!! :-D
@@YOUneedJESUS1 stick to your day job🤦🏻♂️
If I could throw a golf ball around a course I would score better than having any set of clubs
Lindsay with the classic hand wedge! What a shot !
That bunker “out” by Lindsay was hilarious
I love Peter's channel. It's what golf should be about: camaraderie, self-improvement, friendship, fun and gratitude. Hope it goes on forever.
GET LINDSAY IN MORE VIDEOS HES A COMEDIAN!!!!!!! Never laughed this much at a golf video
Lindsay getting "out" of that bunker is literally every one of my bunker shots.
Probably the best intro I’ve even seen in my life. And you’ve produced some stellar ones
Great video, what a nice lad I wish him all the best for his future. His bunker play is next level
Bucket-list course for sure. Very nice to see you play it, and Ruben is a lot of fun. Well done!
Love the opening drone footage and music. Great Job!
Looks such a nice golf course. Defo on the bucket list! Great vid Pete! Love the bunkers
I think I have tried to “Like” this video, about four times during the duration and I realize that I already have every time, Peter Finch In 🏴 love it!
Wonderful vlog - really enjoyed all of it. Have to say that Ruben sounds a bit like Andrew Cotter; great dry sense of humour. Really hope things go well for him in his career
Cheers
The editing and intros have improved ten fold! 👏 could almost call you professional UA-camr now 🤣
Really good video there but i dont know if its just me or is the sound of the video quite low? could just be me though.
But again a nice video!
The views look amazing. Dark clouds yet there's still sunshine and the bright green of the course.
Great swing on the young lad. And a good score but didn’t see him hit 1 fairway!! Driver was all over the place!
That boy's got a hell of a swing. Got the Tiger hip shift. The thing you're trying to drill in, by the looks.

It's £741 for a 3 course ticket this year.
Lindsey’s slick sleight of hand bunker shot, set up victory! 😬 It’s at least a 1 Stoke advantage over the field, you may need to practice that one !
This is how golf should be played! With laughter and fun. Too much pressure sometimes!
Pete, I know we are trying to use this putter for more than just a couple weeks like all the others, but I still haven't seen you putt as well as you did with the LAB golf putter with anything else.

More colabs with Ruben please. Fantastic golfer and a good laugh. 👌🏻
I love the sound of the strikes when he hits the ball. Amazing!
10:23 "Are you going to the right flag?"
Peter: "Oh, it's the red one?" LMAO
Love the work you put in and thanks for helping me get my swing in shape
The drip on my man in the background @12:45. 🔥
Obviously it erks you tour pro and + handicap guys but it makes me feel so much better to see even you guys can struggle on any given day. Another cracking vid Peter and best of luck in the future Ruben 👍🍀
Top video Pete. Stay 14 miles from the course. It’s a great place to walk the dog and play golf of course

Was my favorite course on our trip to Scotland, played a few weeks after the Open with all the grandstands still up.
I like the confidence in the putting stroke Finchy looking good.👍
I would argue the Ocean Course at Kiawah is the world's hardest. On a windy day, it is impossible to play - except for the best touring pros. Still, Carnoustie looks pretty daunting. Great video.
The sky when looking back up the 18th is magnificent.
The kid was brilliant. Love to see more of him
The hardest course in the world is any that I'm currently playing on lol
I hope you liked Blairgowrie last week, Declan says you may visit again soon .... that would be great!! Hope to see the footage from the course soon
Amazing timing of the video, just secured a tee time at Carnoustie in two weekends time. I'll be happy with +4 for each hole though nevermind over 18!
I was fortunate enough to be at the Open’s final round at Carnoustie in 2019. It really did look tough. It was fun watching the pros play it.

What a fantastic course. Come to the U.S.A with Matt and Rick and play Whistling Straits. I played there last year.
Pete, can you do a video on how to hit a low fanoodling fade with the driver? I would love to have that shot in the tool box! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Shot 77 at Car-nasty, started day with a birdie on #1, crashed coming home with a double on 16 & 17.
His dry sense of humour is hilarious 😂😂

Going to try that bunker shot next time!
I have not been there in 30 years but you should practice links golf at Prestatyn just a short hop down the A55 from Manchester

What a course. It would destroy me. I’m hopeless in the wind!! Lol
Me too! If it’s above 10mph, I struggle so much. A little wind is ok because it makes you think about your shots. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. lol
Played “Carnasty” a few years back. Birdied the first hole. Didn’t break 100.
Played it once April before the open with low rough and flat calm, still a challenge. Volunteered at the open that same year, hard getting bearings on it without all the grandstands
Imagine your house backing onto Carnoustie 😍
A brutal dream
My brother's house is next to the course😃
I wonder if the houses ever get hit lol
@@cameronknowles6267 the day I played it there were a group of Americans in the 3rd tee and we were on the 6th tee when suddenly there was all this gunfire. The Americans hit the deck while we all did with wtf expressions on our face. They didn't realise the firing range was next to the golf course🤣
I'd rather not think about the price of that....
+5 handicapper and hit 1 fairway all day. Wish I could do that 🤣
I love your stuff Peter, have been watching for years. Don't wanna be THAT guy, buuut...

Well…you must travel in some pretty awesome elevators 🤷🏻♂️
@@peterfinchgolf Sorry Peter if that was a little mean and/or unconstructive ☹️. I'm genuinely a big fan and do watch and like your videos.
Great to see you play my home course. Shame your mate Rick Shields bottled playing a real course when he was at St Andrews 🤣
Great content mr Peter finch keep it up look forward too your videos 👏👏👏
What a man for calling Finch out for stepping on the line. 😂
That course looks solid. The young lad did not play like a plus 5 handicap today did he!
Superb 👍 keep up the great content 👏
Another great post when did you play we were there end of April conditions look the same. Some course 😎
The putter changes pete i thought u loved that lab monstrosity
The bunkers sure look like a real pain but I have to say the the Ocean Course at Kiawah might be more difficult
Your a good player Peter. Your short game needs alot of work however!
Been lucky enough to play that course twice and both times it beat me up but loved it. High handicapper that just loves being out playing
Masochist, huh Rob? lol I’m with you. If the course is tough, it’s still better than my best day at work. lol
@@garybrumley3519 you don't turn chances like that down although The Castle Course proper beat me up
@Peterfinch I might argue you technically won the strike play after the dubious bunker shot! Just saying 😉👍
No problem. I could shoot the lights out at Carnoustie: 140 on a calm day. Junior membership: $299 per year.
Kudos to your editing team. They have improved your content by a lot, recently!
Except for the sound, but I'm guessing that's hard to do right in Scottish wind!
What a nice lad Lindsay is.
@peterfinchgolf I really enjoy your content, very entertaining. I also enjoy walking the course when I play, was wondering what brand you cart is?
I'd probably shoot right at 80. Maybe a little over/under I play off +1. I'd love to play it tho.
How good is this course 🥰
Also is played my best round ever round there 95 in an absolute gale as a 15 hcp
Nobody believes me but I took up golf up in June / July of last year and I shot 84 when I played it in August of the same year!!! Since I’ve started I managed to get down to a handicap of 7.5
@@rosscowan3612 I certainly believe it. Some are naturals and can play well early on while others struggle for years and never break 90.
Well out Lindsay 😂😂😂
Hey Pete, what are you wearing on your wrist? Is it for support?
Pete please inform me what you’re wearing on your hand? I injured my trailing wrist and struggle to make it through 18 without hitting one-handed the last few holes 😢
Being honest I would quit keeping score after 9 holes (as my math can't go that high) 😀
Ight none of ya'll will probably get this but that junior members voice sounds a lot like Kevin McKidd who voiced 'Soap' from the Call of Duty campaigns. And before you tell me it's just because their both Scottish go listen to both voices lol
So jealous you played this without a 35mph! Played 2 weeks ago, loved it but SO hard.
Scotland just won it's first WSM Event!!!
Pete have you tried the miura irons the are fairly expensive but very good
Petition for Ruben to become a permanent second act on the channel course vlogs.

You need to get to Muirfield Pete.
I just played it today and shot 78 off the stick. 18 handicap. Surely it isn't that hard? Did I mention that was in my golf Simulator?
Glad to see you're in shorts in Scotland 🔥🔥
Which Peter Finch is the better golfer? Sounds like a match?
