The Ugliest 80 In Golf History
40 Comments
Man, Im done with the winter! Cant wait for the shorts weather to come back!
I have been terribly inconsistent in my play the last 5 rounds but my scores have been remarkably consistent (I am ashamed to say between 102-106). As a 22.4 handicap I am playing about 10 shots above where I need to be. But for me consistency isn’t about my scores but about a more consistent golf swing. I can’t seem to hit two consecutive decent shots.
"I'm Bob Parsons. When you buy my PXG clubs you immediately gain 30 yards on your drives, 10 years on your life, and the instant adoration of anyone passing by. Our clubs will bring peace to the middle east, stop world hunger, and give free affliction t-shirts and punisher decals to under privileged stock brokers."
But seriously, way to grind out a good score!
Alex having him a friendly heater while playing 🚬
Waiting to see a 110 yard 9-iron shot NOT be short haha
42+39=81- no?
Edit: Why in the world would yo go with PXG?? That's like buying a Prius cause you want to be "that guy" and look cool. Guarantee you put some Ping 425's (or even 400's) you'd strike the ball 10x than that mess. No hate just saying
PXG’s are over priced and over hyped. Imo
Do you have any filming tips for someone trying to start a similar channel?
Your "terrible" shots look a lot more like my "average" shots. Lol.
It looks like you're leaning back on every shot and getting scoopy
Hey! This is near my house will need to try it..thanks for great content 🙌🏻
Well played. What a putt on 15, and bunker shot on 16.
Does that driver sound as bad in real life as it does on the video?
39 + 42= 81?
putting the lights out man. love to see it
Wouldn’t it be an 8.3 differential? 71.7 + 7.3 is 79, Or am I just not correct on how it would be counted. Slope and handicap are still somewhat confusing
I like your honesty, nice channel man.
Been watching your stuff for a while now and just now realizing you’re in Surrey. Rad. Maybe I’ll see you around kings links or Northview sometime.
Thanks for the video learning alot from you vid, I'm not a scracth golfer but you're right sometimes you will shoot your lowest then the next you play will shoot more than ten on your normal score. But golf is fun. by the way what app you use to edit your video to display the pars/strokes/hole number, is it a different program you use to put the pin flag on your video. I record most of my games but have not tried posting them in video, still trying to put the videos together and also filming while playing is very difficult unless yoou have a designated camera man.
Pxg are overrated.
Rounds like this are why we go back
i just want to make good decisions consistently. the results don't matter as much as the intent. my physical ability is capped, but i can always make the right decision regardless of my age or ability.
80 from the blues at Kings is pretty great, Adam. So many ways for that course to frustrate you – My best rounds there have always felt like an absolute war during the round.
Not sure why people have gotten into giving PXG a bad rep. For the money they can't be beat. as long as you buy them when on sale, which they have been for the last 3 years…don't be salty till you try them…
Quick question. How do you deal with golfers with poor etiquette? I.e. talking during your swing, stepping all over lines etc.
I mean no disrespect – your content is fantastic, but I think your videos would be more watchable if you changed the modulation/tonality of your voice with your sentences. Every sentence sounds the exact same. If it were a song it would just be the same melody repeated over and over and over again – if that makes sense. And it gets very boring to listen to. The tone starts low, goes up and down again. Rinse and repeat. By just mixing it up so you don’t sound like a broken record your videos would be so much better. 😊
Another great video Adam. I'd love to see you play at Silver Rock. I'm pretty sure it's in your area. I've played there twice and loved it both times. Keep it up, love the content!
Good stuff love the honesty. Great insights and it looks like you are not trying to boost your ego or prove that you are some sort of amateur turning pro because you have a youtube channel. Been watching a lot of golf on YouTube and for me it is easy to spot the fakes and appreciate the genuine golf. Keep up the content!
you should do a video on how iron yardages don't matter as much as accuracy. It's impressive that you still have a 7.3 handicap despite hitting 9 iron from 110
links is in great condition right now considering the bad weather
Nice video Adam!
I guess our definition of good shots change with our handicaps. For me, a good shot is any shot I can find afterwards, avoiding stroke and distance penalty. So all your shots are good shots in my book!
What do you use for shot tracers?
Just discovered your channel last week and so glad I did. You’ve helped me take a much more pragmatic approach to my game and I’m getting a lot more comfortable rolling with the punches. Even if my scores haven’t seen the effect yet my mental game is so much better.
That title did not disappoint
For me, this is consistent 🙂
I wanna be like you ….. but better
Doesn’t look hard
But it obviously is
Is there any explainer video on what exactly constitutes a green light vs red light drive and so on? Is it to do with how well you hit the drive, or how well you set up the next shot?
Slow down your tempo.
I like your videos; you really show that every shot doesn't have to be great to put up a good score! It kinda kills me that you step all over your partners lines though, great example at 8:17. You should practice better etiquette
I'm a new subscriber. I really enjoy your outstanding video footage (I would like to get a laser tracker camera!) and thoughtful, reflective narrative of your game and strategy. I can't imagine all the work that goes in to producing such polished videos, which really reward the viewer.
In viewing your swing, I am struck by how well you rotate around the ball, giving yourself a huge slot into which to drop the club on the downswing. You're doing yourself quite a favor with that rotation, and it's something I'm trying to emulate. Already, it is paying off. I am hitting the ball about 10-15 yards longer with just a bit more deliberate and well-rooted rotation!
In listening to your narrative, I am reminded of the mental ups-and-downs of my own rounds. I'm a speedgolfer and play most of my 18 hole rounds in between 50-60 minutes. I go through many of the same mental gymnastics, but your slower pace has given me the opportunity to reflect more on my mental game.
You are doing the community a great service with your channel. Keep up the excellent work!
Great stuff Adam. Subscribed. This makes me excited to changing my mentality! Keep up the good work.
