The intro and then the music with the scene looking out the window!! Could be Hollywood it’s amazing - so professional - so brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 the course looks lovely and your host was a true gentleman - another GREAT video

[@golf007sd2]

The volume of words needed to describe such a setting is not possible. Only by seeing it can one even come close to truly encapsulating such venues. Thank you for taking me....nay....us on such a ride....

[@guillaumelibbrecht3844]

Great video! Played it last year and I must admit it is one of my favourite courses in Scotland. This is the first video I watch on your channel but surely not the last!

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Glad you found us and hope you enjoy some more of my content

[@jonnorag]

Another great course. I loved the old holes within the stone wall boundary and there were a few slightly ordinary holes in the new section but a great test, non the less. The 16th is a fearsome drive - sooo tight!

[@prestonmcmichael3207]

Another awesome video Andy. I must mention the camerawork, it's just great. Keep up the good work

[@johnjess7896]

Hello Andy I have been working my way through some of your videos and thoroughly enjoy them so far it’s nice to see you have played my favourite to course the Ailsa and st Nicholas in prestwick were I have been a member for 21 years keep up the great reviews cheers jj

[@williamjones4682]

Another great video Andy! I think this series of golf courses you have featured from the Welsh courses to the Scottish ones have been my favourite across all KZbin channels. Thank you and keep them coming

[@TheAverageGolfer]

That pleases me so thxs William

[@David1131955]

Another top class film Andy. Reading the comments from other viewers indicates that you are getting the balance right between golf course review and strategy as well as any interesting history associated with the location .

[@keithwalker1780]

Great video as always. The footage is fantastic. First rate. You're quickly becoming my favorite vlog to watch. One of the things I love about golf is the history of our great game and you showcase that in these great courses that you play. I appreciate you making and sharing your videos.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Great feedback Keith much appreciated

[@rodphillips9433]

Andy...I am traveling in May from the USA for a 10-day golf vacation in southern Scotland and Northern Wales and the first thing I did was to visit your vlogs to consider my options. Honestly, as much as playing the "big ones" would be nice, I am content playing the lesser-known courses. Thanks for your work on this...Priority #1 is Conwy...I will be playing with you in mind...

[@jimmylaw9]

I’m a member here. This video is an amazing showcase for the course. Keep up the channel!

[@TheAverageGolfer]

I am pleased you feel we did it justice, thats important to me

[@scottbell6166]

Always buzzing when i see a new video from you Andy, the Scottish golf poems was absolute class too,kept repeating them 👍

[@TheAverageGolfer]

I am glad you are enjoying, I loved Erics poem, I have another recorded for a different video that I hope to use soon.

[@nigelday001]

Yet again another wonderful video accompanied by chilled music . The one thing I’ve noticed Andy , this whole Scottish series of vlogs you seem so happy , I envy you .. one day I would love to follow in your footsteps or even join you on another trip to Scotland.. 😉🏌️‍♂️⛳️🍻

[@TheAverageGolfer]

I am just making a short video about how changing the content I make has made me happier Nigel, so yes your right I am. I have also considered the idea of hosting small groups on a future trip

[@banditbaker1675]

A great Course and video Andy (as Always) and it was really interesting to the member there playing as well to give you/us all the historical information. Really enjoyable, well done!

[@chirperg4765]

Love yoiur videos Andy.Love your commentary. Love your interviews. More please.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Much appreciated, another 16 of these to follow!

[@titchyjp]

Another great video again Andy.The last hole reminds me of the last at North Berwick with the cars sitting on the right awaiting a slice from the tee.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

The cars are a lot closer to be honest! but yes its similar.....At NB I generally aim for the pro shop!

[@titchyjp]

Hi Andy, I was lucky enough to win the Arrol Cup at Prestwick St Nicholas Golf Club in 1972 and 1973 shooting 71, 65 = 136 in 1972 and 67, 67 = 134 in 1973. I'm sorry I wasn't able to play in your Average Golfer competition this year due to holiday commitments - I really enjoyed playing in it last year. David Little

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Thats some incredible golf David and something I am sure your very proud of. Hope to see you next year for AG2021

Another stunning vlog about a cracking course, well done Andy, filming and playing.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Thanks for watching Simon

[@johntinkler6718]

Andy, Yep, played there a few times (Had a chum who was a member). Super course and a friendly membership Good nosebag as well, I recall. Played it at the crack of dawn one day and then flew over to Machrihanish for lunch and a round in the afternoon... as you do... Those were the days! You should really try Machrihanish - the 1st would be interesting given your shot shape.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

What a lifestyle John! Will hopefully get there one day

Hello Andy! very nice course👍 What's in your golf bag? We really want to know....

[@justinstephenson9360]

Ayrshire Tourist Board video No.2! Seriously I have loved the Scottish golf videos and look forward to more

[@TheAverageGolfer]

I have loved filming them and have another 16 to share!

[@desmondjohnston2771]

Great video Andy. I remember playing the 18th and chose a rescue club, ( always better to top it, than shank into the car park). Kilmarnock Barassie is well worth a visit whilst your up there.

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Good decision! Kilmarnock is up next!

[@desmondjohnston2771]

@@TheAverageGolfer excellent, hope you enjoy it there.

[@LyleCat7]

Normally its a big bail out on the 17th for me Andy. Another cracking insight into Scottish Links golf and great to see you over the best side of the country :) !

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Yes it is a nervy one! One more from the West Coast to follow on Thursday evening

I’m a member and it’s just a stunning course. Glad to say I’m part of a fantastic junior group

[@TheAverageGolfer]

You have a great golf course and I hope we showed it off well? Good to hear there is a healthy junior section who are the future of the golf club

[@briantreadwell2206]

Nice course with bags of history

[@jaybyrne4562]

I was going to play here when I was working up there. I read the guide on their website and it basically said if you're a bit wild, you're gonna have a bad day! 🤣🤣🤣 Stunning though

[@TheAverageGolfer]

It definitely requires strategy Jay.....do you have that in the locker?

[@jaybyrne4562]

@@TheAverageGolfer I'm not exactly known for it 🤣🤣🤣 I've taken a 5i off the tee once or twice mind you 🙈

Thanks Brent and Lewis appears in tonights upload

[@martinkscott]

Scene of my greatest ever victory was st nicks,my big mate and I played two 3 handicappers in the Ayrshire fourball,when had won the winter league to qualify for the fourball and got drawn away to st nicks,we were 3 down with 6 to play and won 5 in a row,the climax was my 8 ft birdie putt at 17👌🏻class course by the way 👍🏻

[@robertwilson3934]

Played this one many decades ago. An excellent course however being a high handicap golfer (18) even thinking about holes 17 and 18 still brings me out in a cold sweat.

[@colingilmour9683]

Hi Andy , how did you find ayrshire for golf ? What was your favourite of the courses you played ?

[@TheAverageGolfer]

Ayrshire is a fantastic coastline and an abundance of golf courses to choose from. I think it is hard to pick favourites as they all have appeal fro different reasons

[@jaredl3903]

fantastic
