what is up you guys welcome back to the channel today I’m going to show you what a two handicap golf looks like going to run you guys through N9 hole Vlog every shot all right you guys we have a 212 yard Par 3 I’m going to choke down on a three hybrid aim for that middle of the green pretty tough par three would be fine with just a two pup par I think it’s got to sit a little bit okay back of the green okay so we did fly it by you know 15 yards so we got a long two putut here feel like it’s going to come right to left pretty heavily we’re just trying to get out of here with a tup but yeah this thing’s going to swing right to left just going to focus on speed felt like good speed really good speed oh I’ll take that whenever you have more than like a six iron five iron for a part three I always feel like those are tough to at least birdie when you’ll take a par dog leg left par five right now I’m just going to play for the lip of that bunker with kind of a little bit of a draw wow feels so nice when you hit the center of the club phase okay so we got about 260 to the pin pin’s all the way back there’s water so it’s either I’m hitting like an eight iron laying up or trying to rip a 3-wood hopefully rolls up on the green I would feel more comfortable with this even if I’m in a green side bunker or chipping rather than another full wedge shot and just hitting an eight iron on a par five feel illegal so we got a 3-wood and that’s fine okay so we left ourselves in a pretty good position here we’re right at the Trap not a lot of obstacles on our way it’s got to go a little uphill so I got a 60° going to try just check it roll up but right now just kind of back of the stance little bit of an open Club face kind of Bounce like 15 ft in front of the pin go a hair that should be really good sit sit oh I think I went a tiny bit past the pin but okay so we hit a good chip we went a little bit by which now leaves us with kind of a downhill slippery one I didn’t think I would go that far by with a little bit an uphill but there is really not a lot in this pot um I’ve got it almost straight when I can’t see a read I kind of go straight stay there let’s go that’s a big pot that’s a nice up and down got to take advantage on the par fivs when I have 250 in or so okay we got a 384 par 4 kind of shortish but it’s a very narrow Fairway you can see that there’s a bunker on the right and the left the one on the right’s a little bit further so we’re going to try favor the right side of the Fairway and we should have a wedge in if we don’t go in the Trap and and that’s heading exactly in the Trap oh oh no we’re actually short short right okay so we just stayed short of the bunkers which I guess was like 275 and we just can’t hit that we got about 115 in kind of between a 50° or a 53 I’m going to go with a full 53 just cuz there’s a little bit of wind behind us oh that came out thin but it’s going to work if it’s the right number yeah a little long because it came out a bit thin but yeah kind of rushed that swing a bit okay so we did obviously go a little long because of the thin but guess I’m glad I took the Lesser Club but we got a kind of another downhill you know 12 14f footer for a bird it’s going to come this way a tiny bit and then this way at the end we’re definitely going to favor that right side should go that way just a misre I just didn’t think it was going to move that much clean up just up the hill all right we’ll take a par there after a skull okay this is a bit of a crazy hole you can see that it’s a very tight Fairway it’s a short par for dog leg left you want to aim for that bunker there because then you have a clean shot if I if you over drw you’re going to be blocked out by the trees so I’m not taking driver I got 3-wood going to aim just for the right side hopefully have a clear shot in just catch a piece don’t go in the Trap be short okay we’re short we just missed the bunker to the right that’s why I was just not going to take a driver you just don’t need it right now we got about like 140 I got a smooth smooth nine iron pulled it a bit just carry that bunker it should yeah all right left side of the green we have a putt okay so we found the left side of the green pulled a little bit good number definitely going to swing it’s going to come a lot left to right so right now I got my pot coming like right here I think it’s going to move that much oh it’s got to turn oh it’s got a turn oh my god wow that had some eyes that had some eyes okay we got a 423 yard par 4 my line is I’m trying to take it over the edge of that tree if you go too far right you’re going to be blocked out for your shot it doesn’t look like it but you are so rather be more left than right here so I’m going to take kind of an aggressive line and kind of go where the green is Oh no just cut on me be short all right it’s going to be close I might have some tree branches in my way but okay so I think we do have a shot here I just got to get the ball up kind of quick try to play a little fit I got 165 got a seven in hand yeah definitely got to play a little Fade to avoid these branches at the start oh CAU go I will take that and ah it’s coming back there’s a big hill there oh man but listen as long as I didn’t hit any branches we’re just going to look here for a bit of a twoot this is a very steep H Hill though going to move left to right for sure wow moved a lot there’s still some chicken left there damn okay so we do have some chicken left and for these I don’t really like to read too much into it I kind of like to just go firm so I’m going to play this just Center cup for there we go take care of business okay we got a part four short I don’t know exact yardage but I know it’s not over 400 we’re going for that big bunker in the distance with a tiny little bit of a draw turn should be good I don’t think I can reach there okay so really good position after the drive definitely couldn’t reach this bunker but we got about 102 103 into the green there’s a false front which you don’t want to be short on so I got a 56 just going to try put it within 10 ft or so I’ll just be a good number cuz that’s right at it all right then were a little long but shouldn’t be that difficult of a putt sand drop uh we got about yeah 2025 ft which not happy about not sad about but now we got kind of like a downhill left to right guy great pot yeah we want to play Cut talk like right stay there stay there that should be perfect okay so we found the right side of the Fairway we got 127 in 50° it’s been the weakest part about my game right now are kind of just approaches just not putting myself in good positions let’s try change that like that’s the issue you just you have it in and you just flare it out right sand drop okay so just another bad shot came off towy right took off some distance got another Lo put here uphill right to left maybe let’s drain one really going to swing that much all right I mean dude we’ve been playing solid golf but we got one Birdie the rest pars a lot of good two putts just got to improve that approach game all right another par two hes left okay so we got a 426 yard par 4 very challenging t-a with a driver there’s water all left you don’t really want to play a draw here cuz everything feeds towards the water so we’re just going to hit a 3w to that bunker it’s about 260 out there so shouldn’t be an issue little bit of jaw we’ll take that though that’s not near the water okay so we still got a waist to go we got 180 one up the hill I’m going to hit a six iron I don’t want to try smash a seven just going to hit a smooth six not expecting to put this one close probably ending up with another two put if we can hit the green but let’s just hit a nice smooth swing o draw and go draw and go oh all right pin high right probably my best approach out of the day came with a six iron all right so we’re just throwing darts on this hole 181 6 iron it’s the closest I’ve been this nine when I’ve had mostly wedges in hands all right let’s see what we’re going to have I can already tell uphill right to left yeah up the hill right to left got to keep the speed on this one yeah I like this line as long as I keep the pace stay up stay up stay up stay up oh my God I actually thought I kept the pace a lot there too another part moving on to the ninth and listen I’m so happy with just one birdie and a lot of pars but disappointed in my Approach game on some holes okay we got like 165 I’m going to opt for the seven iron pins in the front water short left so definitely going to try and play a draw in there just be the number stay there oh another Dart wow just hitting the seven and six phenomenal okay so we put another close one in went past the hole going to have a downhill slider oh wow this is going to be quick yeah it’s going to be quick moving this way so what I’m thinking though is I’m on a hill here that’s going to push the ball this way and then come this way so it actually almost is kind of straight to be honest we’re going to hit it straight we’re going to see if my cadd senses can do something oh my caddy senses were so off definitely move right to left oh good effort though I will take that score any day though great score on a great hard course thank you guys for watching go like comment subscribe we got some more

  1. What's your gapping between a 50 and 53°? Seems like that'd only be like 5 yards difference
