Welcome to every shot from a 10 handicappers round here at toot Hill absolutely beautiful course this is true winter golf though it’s wet it’s cold there are 20 mph winds with gusts of up to 45 so this is going to be a treacherous one if we could get anywhere

Near our handicap that would be big let’s get on to the first te we’re hitting a three-wood starting off here on a 422 yard Par Four this is all downhill all the way and it is Si 10 that should play very nicely caught that one quite well yeah that’s pretty much perfect

Don’t think we could have actually placed this one better we have got 180 yards playing 170 downhill loads of wind off the left though so we’re going to give it a fair bit of space just swing nice and smooth at a seven iron to start us off it’s pretty good it’s nice strike

Early on on I can’t see it I have absolutely no idea but I hit it well fortunately we are safe we’ve come off the back um just got to get up and down really now that’s it it’s quite far past I just wanted to make sure we’re on the green

Wow the greens are unbelievable for this time of the year right we’ve got a slippery downhill 27 footer for par I’m going to give this uh a lot of respect I’m not going to lie because I just feel like it’s going to fly compared to what I’ve been playing on

Recently wow that is fast that might go in stop oh my God I probably hit that like it was a 15t or anywhere else around here it’s gone about 30 oh my god I’ve started with a double bogey that is devastate I’m not going to lie these greens are quick we’re going

To have to really adjust fast to them don’t know what happened there that’s actually outrageous how we made double oh my God all two is a 362 yd par 4 it’s si4 it dog legs to the left it’s uphill and is downwind can’t see it at

All oh yeah yeah perfect up in the middle of the fa got about 140 in here but the wind is blowing an absolute Gale I’ve got a pitch and wedge should be on the green either that or it’s going long yeah I think that’s on I think

We’re good all right very similar to the last pot we had this one is 30t though it is downhill also I feel like the exact same pot I gave it last time would be perfect go on B gety up yeah that’s not bad to be

Fair oh my God what is going on another threep not ideal start two three pots on the first two holes that is that is diabolical hole three is a 143 yd par three and it’s SI 16 all right we’re going to go pitching wedge again but I going to swing it easy here

Because I feel like it’s like downwind and it’s about 130 so it could go very very long if I decide to go crazy here oh dear skinny work out slow down it’s off the back that’s a dreadful Dreadful Dreadful shot yeah just going to use a little

Pitching wedge nudg it bump and run it kind of maybe hit it like a putting stroke that could be really good these greens are absolutely ridiculous considering it’s February H well at least it’s not a free poot I guess guys oh my God that is absolutely

Dreadful what is going on these greens I can’t handle them genuinely we are what we are three shots worse off than we should be we should be one over and we’re blowing four or something that’s Dreadful we will pull it together at some point in this round don’t you worry

We’ll get it firing next hole though is into wind and it is blowing an absolute Gale all four is a 393 yd PA four it’s downhill but it’s into win and it is Si 2 going to hit a three-wood here just want to try and

Keep it out and under the wind to be honest oh I’ve not got very good contact skip the tree it’s past the tree I guess it’ll work sadly we’ve snapped it off too much to the left these trees are blocking us we’ve got a huge tree in

Front of the green um so I’m going to have to just pitch out to the right and then uh and then try and get up and down from over there just wanted to travel far enough that I’m not compromised by the tree should be all right now if you guys can’t tell

The wind is absolutely ridiculous I’ve just tried to fly the Drone down here and it’s basically got blown off to the side it barely made it down the hill so yeah it is windy and it is tricky all right we’ve got 91 yards to the pin I

Think I’m going to hit this like it’s 110 though oh I pulled it left get a bit of the green no we’re off the side can’t Tom stop it’s all right we got a long one for bogey though oh my God look at it I’ve barely

Tapped it and it’s gone a mile past oh my Lord oh flipping it guys Jesus we’ve just made a triple oh my Lord what is going going on I’m not really even sure what’s going on I don’t feel like I’m even putting that badly I’m just being

Punished right now all five is a 342 yd par 4 it’s si6 it’s all uphill that is not a great swing I mean it’s so short as long as it gets over those things we should be all right but there might be a bunker I don’t even

Know we’ve been joined by Lewis who was the one ball behind me he’s fancy player with me so uh he’s going to be joining us I got 100 in but the wind is just literally picked up it’s uphill but the wind is blowing an absolute Gale I don’t mind going a

Little bit long here but go on wind oh my God it’s blowing it straight right into the bunker this is not the round I was hoping for they say summer golfers are made in the winter or something along those lines um I really hope that’s true because we out here grinding right now

I’m doing it for you guys it’s going to rain for another 5 days so this was the only day I could get out and I want to say thank you because there was so much support on the last couple of videos that we’ve uploaded you guys are awesome

Um you got to keep on going though we got to keep on smashing the like button leaving comments leave me your golfing Journey Down in the comment section I will reply to every single one of you without fail because you’re a day ones and I’m just an absolute golf nerd all

Right let’s uh let’s go see what these bunkers are all about e not loads of sand in here that’s for sure quite wet ah quite thin frustrating all right 54 here for a par oh it’s all right got stop come on Tom we need something to happen here we can’t card another double

We just can’t card another double I’ve missed again oh I’ve literally missed everything that is just so bad so this is really what 10 handicap golf can look like if you’re on an off day and things aren’t going your way my goodness it can be an absolute

Blood barath so I respect you guys for sticking with me another par three here this is 162 yards in its SI 12 GS feel like a rarity here I’m going to try and hit the 7 IR up there and get it on oh so right winds ain’t not going to help that

Either Cy all right okay let’s see what we can do here then yeah it’s not too bad distance is really good let’s see if we can make just one part oh my goodness he’s actually drained one it’s a miracle I’ll tell you what we’ll tell that that’s that’s big

That could be a big momentum shift or maybe just stem the bleeding a little oh7 is a 436 yd par five our first of day and it’s si14 got par five going to hit driver just see what we can do here straight into wind God knows what’s going to happen here so

Now play doesn’t look like it’s going to go anywhere though all right uh going to hit a Hybrid here got a long way in um for some reason Aros thinks I could actually make it despite the fact that we’re 210 into wind I just don’t think there’s anywhere I’d ever get there so

Hybrid is the play oh well I’ve hit the slope in front of me don’t go behind the tree funny thing with this round is I’m not actually disappointed with how I’m playing yet there’s been a couple of crap shots that th on the par three just hitting the

Bank in front of me there that was pretty poor but overall we’ve Struck it a lot better than we usually do we just haven’t been able to putt or do anything close to the green so we can sort that out we’ll be flying I’m not really sure

What to do here I got about 110 into the flag it’s blowing an absolute Gale uh I’m going to hit a pitching wedge and just hope it gets there this wind is ridiculous guys by the way how do that come out so left I’ve like smothered it my ball has

Gone into this unofficial standing water pond so uh yeah that is uh unfortunately gone so going to have to drop one for free relief on the line it went in on I think little bit long we are parting for a par though 30t up the hill for a par here go in go

In all right for a six that was so close to going in we’ve got a drivable par 4 here 255 yds uphill downwind and it si8 all right let’s make some YouTube magic we are downwind right now so trying to use that to our advantage so a little right it’s not

Going to get any better cuz uh the wind’s blowing right so everything just seems to be coming out right now 22 Ys here need to land this short so can’t actually see the bottom of the pin which is making this a little bit more tricky

But oh love that oh we make a birdie oh my God no way okay come on then little birdie can’t even take the glove off it’s so cold yeah happy days I don’t know how that’s happened but it has and we’ll take it 09 is a 354 yd par 4 it’s si8

And it dog legs down to the right round this sort of like nice downhill and we got a pond on the right of the green oh that is got the wind has got that stop blowing it left I think we’re okay for a second there I just had thoughts of it just

Blowing off into the trees but I think we’re okay I think we’re getting to a stage where I need to try and keep this ball out of the wind um just off here on the left edge of the Fairway I’m going to do like a little knockdown nine ey

And just run it there big pond on the right so just want to avoid that that could be good see it yeah we’re on we take that got 51 footer here come on Bo keep going a damn it I think I towed it a little bit that’s a bogey another three

Part to add to my collection okay we’ve rounded the turn we are 10 over part is not looking great it’s our worst nine ever I won’t lie yeah it’s our worst nine ever but that doesn’t mean that we can’t have our best nine ever coming in

And shoot our handicap you wanted to see every shot of 10 handicappers around this is it you are seeing it right now listen is get to the back nine we’ve rounded the turn hole number 10 is a 398 yd Par Four it’s the third hardest on

The course I’ll put it down the right side here oh he’s flirting with the danger on the left stay out of it we are fine we are fine right we got 170 yards into this pin here it is tucked behind a bunker so I’m not really

Going to go at it I’m just going to go slightly towards it and it should just blow back in I’m going to hit five on because it is windy as heck as you guys know said it about a million times so not the best lie here very slippery very

Wet on the foot don’t hit in the rough if you don’t want that didn’t catch it quite enough run up there run up oh it’s actually on the green all right now we’re talking I got to say what a course this is how is it holding up so well in the winter like

It’s crazy 9 10 11 12 36 6 foot but my God is it going to break away oh dear I’m actually scared about this part no don’t be scared don’t be screwed no go oh my God if this comes back to my feet I’m going to scream I was not prepared for this

Today the greens are slick as hell the wind is ridiculous it’s freezing cold it’s really wet my Lord I was just I just did not expect to come out and play like this today or play anything like this of a course oh my flipping God I’ve actually made a

PT no way it’s a four to start the bat nine 512 yards into wind H okay might need four shots to get there today all 11 is another par five it’s SI 9 and is 512 Ys all uphill it’s a little right hopefully avoids the bunker in the trees

So avoided the bunker it might be behind trees not ideal we’re blocked out big time by this tree I’m actually just going to try and uh hit like a chippy hybrid keep it under this tree I’ll do you know what I might put it straight behind another set of trees I

Have oh dear that’s what we call a smooth move now the only thing that I’ve got going for me is I’m actually on kind of like an UPS slope so I have a feeling that I can get this six iron up and over these trees oh that is so good that is so

Good oh we’re on the bloody dance floor I can’t believe it we’re pting for a birdie 13ish foot imagine for a birdie oh now stop all right no birdie can we lock up the PA all right we make another par back to backs it’s a I want to say it’s uh it’s

Our longest par streak of the day guys so we’re flying next up we’re on to the signature hole it’s 125 Ys long it is a par three in its si113 really cool island green with a bunker on it we got it 108 yards downwind I’ve got Gap wed

In hand going along here isn’t a problem because the uh pin is at the very front oh that’s going to be bunker in it or worse I think it is Bunker we found the bunker interesting one here we’re in the bunker just need to get this to just pop out a little

Bit oh that’s so good come on give me a rake baby yes come on that’s what we’re talking about guys three parts in a row what a bloody old by the way look at that Fountain Pond wind oh it’s like the beach it’s cra crazy all 13 is a

Downhill par 4 it’s actually split into two sections of Fairway by a big river that runs through the middle and we’ve got an uphill section as well all right I’m going to hit a four iron here because you run out of space if you hit driver so hit forarm up the left hand

Side jobs are good eh oh that that’s got to go it’s not left enough I’m pretty sure it’s hit trees right we got about 177 into this green uh got six iron here uh got to hang it out to the left cuz I think it’s going to be coming in to the right

Unbelievably we didn’t hit a tree we came straight through so really good news there oh it’s coming everything’s coming out a bit right at the moment all right well we’re making progress that’s all we can say oh I’ve hit way too hard hit the the camera oh my God guys you wouldn’t have

Seen it but that landed about 3 in from the side of you 10 it’s 30 foot I’m actually going to hit it like a 30 footer cuz I’ve got to go through quite a bit of Fringe to get to the hole so or

What I know as a 30 footer I guess is a better worth putting it oh imagine oh my god oh there’s something about this hole and me having a bit of a magical time on it what a Part 30 footer for par does that continue on that keeps the par

Streak going guys I genuinely cannot believe what is going on right now after that start all 14 is the hardest on the course it’s a 411 uphill par 4 the thing is I know that the second this ball comes out of this clearing here it’s

Going to be in a one wind tunnel and get blown so hard off to the left so I’ve got to actually aim at the bunker otherwise I think I won’t be on The Fairway oh that’s pretty good it might no I see it I see it it’s on

The Fairway I think or just in the rough um yep all right I’m hitting 7 is into a pin that’s about 135 yards away because of the wind so fingers cross it don’t drop for a second because otherwise this is going to end up in the

Clubhouse well take the wind out of the equation that is a low Runner well how is this going to react I think I’m just going to go like a little hinged one and just get it out to be honest um but it could come very

Very left so let’s aim over to the right a bit that’s pretty good stop all right what’s that so one two is the three that’s four okay that’s for a bogey so we got to go and try and make that go on oh almost perfect what a wonderful

Double to be fair I think we all knew it was coming I’ve been I’ve been on the ropes for a couple of holes now this is an interesting hole extreme downhill Par 3 118 yards long and it’s si5 we are directly downwind and I am too fearful

To hit a full like gap wedge in case it just blows out the back so I’m going to uh I’m going to hit that like kind of like that chippy 9 again and just hopefully have it roll up to the front edge that could be really good get a

Good bounce oh my God what okay I genuinely thought that could go no more than about 90 yards without hitting the floor it is on the very back Edge it is just held on it’s so funny when you think you’ve hit something perfect and then it’s so horrendously

Wrong how has that happened all right we got 63 footer for birdie I’m on the back Fringe here so is that going to turn left like I thought it would no not even close that is not a great part definitely turning off my right your left a little bit here

Guys it’s going to go back towards the water for sure oh my God the back nine is just it’s like night and day the front nine was a nightmare the back nine is like a dream what is going on right now another par five here and it happens to be si5

As well it’s 470 y long and it is a dog leg to the right come around feel like I’m Scotty Sheffer or something oh yeah it’s fine it’s in the Fairway oh my head cover is about to blow into the bloody water all right um

So we’re a long way away uh just going to hit a six iron up and over these trees here in front of us get it over oh clipped the tree but got through fine okay we’ve got 110 in here guys uh going to do that chippy

Nine cuz if I do it exactly like I did last time then it should get there perfectly could be good could be very good could be very very good I think that’s one of the biggest learning experience I’m having during the winter is trying to be a bit more creative with

Shots like that was a really safe no danger kind of uh attempt into wind if I’d hit a gap wedge full or a pitch wedge full out the back could go long could go really short I don’t know a lot of things could go very wrong you know

Me I another 30 footer another 30 footer for birdie here this time oh wind’s just giving that a push in fact it might have even stopped it some days I get like six foot I’m like no problem other days I get in them I’m like I’m a little bit worried about

This oh you’ve got the piss we played so many holes so badly we played that one so well and didn’t get rewarded but got rewarded for the others all right three over three the back so far 17th is an uphill par three it’s the second easiest

On the course being only 127 yd long going to h a gap wedge here on this par three it’s 127 long but currently it’s playing 100 um but yeah give it a whack is that going to go far enough oh it’s on it’s on it just cleared the bunker just by about a

Millimeter we got 27t for birdie here that is lightning quick okay it’s a stress free par we can take it and move on we’re still just three over through the back nine big tip here have you noticed how I haven’t really talked about my front nine score since the front line ended I’ve

Completely wiped it from my memory and all I’m focusing on is positive so a really positive thing that’s coming out this round is how well we played on the back nine so just got to keep on thinking positive thoughts and that will allow positive things to happen we’re on

The 18th I’m not sure if this is drivable it is downwind so let’s go have a look the final hole here is is a 276 yd par for it’s SI 11 it’s downwind are we taking driver let’s find out all right it’s saying that to the middle of

The green it’s 255 yards playing 230 so I’m going to hit driver um there’s water on the left as you guys will have seen um so yeah I mean we’re not playing for a PB like there’s nothing really to play for um other than the fact we’re having

A decent back nine but like I fancy just hitting driver just having a bit of fun that’s what golf’s about isn’t it at the end of the day it goes in the water goes in the water we drop for it it’s all good a snapped it left find a bunker and

Stay safe we have got 40 yards to the pin ignore the dream drone screaming um yeah we just got to get over this Pond we actually cleared the bunker so that’s interesting right here we go come on one last magical moment that could be really good oh my

God that is really good we’ve got a really good chance for Birdie on the last just before we finish and I got to say big shout out to toot Hill this place is actually unbelievable for the time of year I am genuinely stunned so I’ll definitely be back okay this is a

Par 70 so if we make this we’re making it an 82 which isn’t which isn’t too bad to be there no I’ve missed it don’t make it nervy okay make it nervy go on go on make it nervy there we go 13 over is the score today guys three

Over our handicap you got to keep fighting you got to keep grinding and if you want to see me keep on fighting keep on grinding somewhere else on a different course in the winter well then just click right here

  1. great video mate, its nice to find a youtube golfer playing courses around north London, especially as I've played some of them as well!! course looked in great condition for the time of year!

  2. Did well to hang in there on front 9 and it paid dividends with a great back 9.
    Excellent Toot Hill GC. They have a great irrigation system for the fairways, which allows for excellent conditions, even in the driest of summer conditions.
