  1. Great bud can’t help but think the ball striking is poor…..Ben is the only one who looks like he’s played a decent level of football.

  2. Never played this game in my life and can confidently say I'd beat everybody in this video

    Ball striking is pretty poor on alot of the shots.

  3. What is this? golf for the extreme handicapped? My golf handicap score would drop immensely if i could kick.

  4. Is this like paid well enough to be your only job or is this just a hobby for them? From what I can see there would be better players if this was finacially more attractive sport. I am not saying its easy, they are very good, but there is no doubt I’ve seen better ballers.

  5. What the hell is wrong with all the haters in the comments? Apparently every commenter is some kind of secret footgolf champion, who knew? 🤷Weird why they aren't getting out on the course and beating some course records and collecting some trophies and prize money instead of writing comments how they would be so much better.

  6. Good ball = good pass. You wouldn’t really say good ball in these scenarios because they’re not passing to anyone. You’d say ‘good hit’ or ‘good strike’

  7. I genuinely have to ask if these are really the two best footgolfers in the world because one of them has a kicking technique that leaves a lot to be desired
    I thought they were bad off the 1st tee but the guy on the 2nd tee barely got the ball past the litter bin.
    The fact that you drew with the best 2 in the world also cast doubts about the level of competition.
    Perhaps 'We played the only 2 footgolfers in the world' would be a more accurate title?

  8. Hey, this was randomly on recommended, never played or watched footgolf before-
    They seem like top guys and clearly both know and have developed a lot of strategy in the game, and they do clearly have good feel for distance on the approach but if this is the best in the world standard, i think footgolf has a long way to develop as a sport.
    It may be over pretention to say but i stopped playing football 6 years ago to focus on work, was a midfielder with good range of passing, playing at good amateur standard and genuinely think that given a few rounds i'd be competing with these guys, especially on the drives. it looks like maybe a safe choice to do this but they were both kicking pretty weak in distance and some fo the wayward tee shots were actually amusingly poor . They were always putting shape on drives that clearly would've been better off with a straight, longer drive suggesting neither of them seem capable of the technique required for cutting through the ball to drive it far and straight? I think i'd be taking less shots to get to the green on several of these holes honestly.
    Do you know the standard of football they played at before playing footgolf?
    Edit: Just realised they are wearing gatwick footgolf gear as well, so this is their home course/ workplace? Yeah, i'm pretty sure that given a week of practice, any even decent amateur standard footballer would be wiping the floor with these guys. Get yourselves a league-standard player with even a hand-full of rounds practice and they'd be embarrassing them.

  9. I respect the skill getting it to the green! But the "putting" is a joke, holrs need to be at least 25% smaller, my 6 year old could tap one in them from 8 feet

  10. Really enjoyed this ! I play footgolf a couple times a year with a large group of mates and didn't actually know it was a proper sport 😂 would love to get into it as a sport ! Subbed

  11. First time viewer. I imagine there are players out there than can reach the greens on the par 4's or am I crazy? Maybe it's the angle but it seems like the "tee" shots aren't going very far.
