Can EAL Break 90 from 8,200 Yards? - Front 9

[@evan3155]

I think what is under appreciated in this is the music. Whomever edits this, I notice this always, you do a fantastic job.

[@masonlax1]

So true. fades in/out perfectly, not too loud, etc

[@blakebeard4920]

Completely agree! The music is perfect! Especially with the mood and how he's playing

Agreed, fly tunes.

@@RandomGolfClubFilms First course that comes to mind right now would be Oakmont, but winter in Pittsburgh might make that one a difficult ask, so maybe TPC Sawgrass, although maybe that's too cliche?

The reality of my golf game vs my expectations is what always brings me back. I love the challenge. I adore my good days and have never let my bad days get to me or bring me down. I try to look at each bad shot as something to try and not repeat again which is of course impossible in the eyes of the golf gods. Never the less it's definitely a part of my life that I always look forward to doing at each and every opportunity and knowing that I may never be any better than average doesn't bother me one little bit. I'm not playing to become perfect, I'm playing because it is perfectly fun.

[@sterlingalfano568]

I work across the street at oxmoor valley, ross is tough! The greens are actually bent grass and roll so fast. Glad you came to the trail man, love all of your series!

[@davidwilliamgolf6171]

My all time favorite series! Erik you have the best job in the world.

[@ajhd2005]

Hooking it left constantly then getting to a hole where you need to draw it left and you slice it straight right into the woods is one of the most fitting visual anecdotes of what it's like to play golf. I love it.

[@vincentmichello488]

This is the best series on KZbin. You should go to Pinehurst No. 2 next from the tips. That would be a great video

[@jackholtz8528]

These are my favorite course vlogs on KZbin

[@TheGolfClan]

Ross Bridge is majestic. A beast from the black tees. Worth playing from the tips for the views alone.

[@cfello16]

The music is FANTASTIC. Especially the dramatic moment in the woods when it really got intense. First video I’ve watched of yours. Will be back.

[@jimmylu2395]

Cool to see some shots of the crew working around Eric, really goes to show the amount of work that's put in. Can't wait for part 2

[@marvynrieger6576]

Loving the iconic slow mo club twirl as you step up to your shots!

I’ve played this course! Love the track and kudos to you for playing from the tips lol takes a lot of courage to tee it up against that length. Love the series.

[@uralljabrones]

Watched this video 3 years ago. Played Ross Bridge yesterday from the tips. Shot a 97 (hcp is an 8 so my net was 80) Legitimately the hardest round I’ve ever played. Glad I did it but next time I’ll just play from the orange tees.

[@gardensalsasunchips2374]

"Oh, it's got quite a lot of break...No, I guess it doesn't have any break at all." - Me expecting Tour quality greens at my muni course.

[@okkimakki]

When you bladed it out of the bunker, you could have declared the ball unplayable and played another shot from the bunker (adding one penalty stroke)

[@masonbutler3833]

^^^

[@Wesley_Juakali]

I think you even doesn't have to declare it unplayable. I think you can just play a new ball from your last spot with a 1 stroke penalty.

[@evanlewis9908]

Elliot with the top-notch editing!

[@coled82595]

You're right about the Georgia vibes this course gives off. Nearly every hole reminded me of a hole from one Georgia course or another that I've played.

Played this course a few times; only once from the tips. Beautiful course that actually seems to play longer than the distances on the card, it can be a beast. And I assume we won't be seeing a RGC at Winged Foot any time soon!

This course looks beautiful! It has a nice classic design, but fair and challenging at times. The bunkers are in tough spots, but it looks like you have some wide fairways to maneuver around as well. Keep up the good work EAL, especially with breaking 90!

[@jeffdownhour4167]

Great commentary, brutal course! Nothing like the overcorrection followed by overcorrection, so familiar.

Great looking course, great footage team, loving the work. nice to clock off work and wind down with the slight drawl of EAL! I'd have taken a provisional on 7 and not found the one in the trees! even though they are 90% air... there was a lot there to make it 5% possible to get out of them..

The bit from about 14:45 to 17:00, the spy in trouble bit. That's the golfing equivalent of doing you taxes. Especially the counting all ya shots on fingers and toes when ya run out of fingers bit haha

These courses are all really good. Each complex of the 7 or 8 has 2 18 hole courses, some have an 18 hole par 3 course as well and are normally in great condition and fairly cheap to play.

The concept of the "emotional spine" seems to me an extremely powerful one. If we treat our emotions as we would our physical condition it might help to flatten the emotional curve and retain the all important calm we need and love on the course. Breathe.

[@ivyfalls1]

The greens fee for Ross Bridge is usually about $150. Three years ago they offered a one day greens fee of $75 including breakfast and lunch, but you had to play from the tips which you see here. My brothers and I played it and had a great time. LOTS of long irons/fairway woods into greens!

[@LTR1420]

Yeah but that's a one time fee. If you buy a "trail card" (no extra cost), it cuts the price to play in half and works at every course on the trail. We play the RTJ courses in the Shoals regularly and you can't beat 45 bucks with a trail card.

[@ivyfalls1]

@@LTR1420 I have a Trail Card as well.. . I was just pointing out that Ross Bridge started having a day, once per year, where they offered breakfast and lunch for a heavily discounted rate but you had to play from the tips. It was so popular the past couple of years that they have raised the entry fee to over the rack rate.

[@michaelfrye876]

What software or filter do you use for shot tracer?

[@RonaldGorman]

My father in law told me don't make a bad shot turn into 2 bad shots. You got stuck in the woods and did the best you could to get out, but up against the water you get the ball back in the fairway with an easy 7j or 8 iron shot and good look at the green.

[@jakedowney8743]

Do you think shot shaping hinders your game in this? Trying for a cut and a draw rather then just play a normal shot ? Only asking for knowledge and to see if I should shot shape or not
