Seems like a really nice genuine lad! Hope to see more of Freddie on the channel

[@yaakovbelfer1698]

Really nice lad. You said it best when you said "confident but no ego" . Love to see it. Especially his last comment of "I plan to play in front of cameras a lot " ! If he went from novice to 6 in 11 months than the sky is the limit !! Just watched back to back videos with Josh and now Freddy . Loving the recent content !!

[@JezTorrance]

This boy looks exceptionally well brought up. A real credit to his mother.

[@teddeboy78]

@Golf Mates why are you pretending to be him?

[@suivzmoi]

does he have no father?

[@frederickashby5577]

@@suivzmoi hi mate it’s Freddie, I do indeed have a dad but he’s done little to none of my upbringing so I’ll give my credit to my mother

[@barryillsley3954]

What a smashing intelligent young lad!! Be great to see him on the channel and his progression over the next year 👍👍

[@aaronthrower4510]

First time on camera and only been playing a year!? Well done Freddie! It just shows what dedication and a supportive mum can achieve. Get him on again Liam!

[@scottplaysgolf]

That was class! Maybe a tad nervous but love his confidence, thinking about what he’s going to down and that smooth tempo. Hope he becomes a regular.

[@matbrennan2941]

Young Freddie came across very well. More camera time needed as that tests even the best players on the channel. Another great addition possibly to the channel Liam. Well played lad.👏👏👏👏

[@alanrhind4960]

What a talented young guy... Love his ' grip it and rip it ' style. He's got the confidence to take on all the shots. I think we'll be seeing more of him 🤔😉🏌️

[@PatrickMclaughlinRock]

Well done Freddie, that's an amazing tumble in the handicap in 11 months, hopefully in another 11 months you'll get down to scratch, confidence is great attribute, great Liam another new player on the channel 👍

[@paulmills7504]

What a genuinely nice lad. And to be that good after 11 months is exceptional. Shout out to his mum Nicky for the transportation. Would love to see him on the channel a bit more.

[@jameswood8525]

That was class! Well done lad! Love the confidence and fair play to him mum as well Every parent would love their child to be passionate about something and its our jobs to help guide them! Defo keep him on the show Liam! Loved watching him play diamond in the rough

Not a chance🤣🤣

[@danielteale8646]

Great to see young golfers progressing so quickly in the game. Deserves all the accolades the boy gets. Great video as always golfmates! 👍🏻😁

[@ianlamont825]

That was a belter. Freddie has an old head on young shoulders. Loved his comment about Mr B "about learning nothing worth knowing." So true!!! Also his "love you Mom." Keep enjoying the game, young man! Thanks Liam.

[@Truthsometimeshurts7]

Cracking young man who has loads of talent. So good to see such a polite, confident and dedicated lad, he'll go far.

[@robnewburn3684]

Young Freddy has fabulous attitude for golf. It looks like he has been trained in confidence not negatively. Will look for his name on leaderboards? A great lad and all the best for the future Freddy.👍

[@timcallaway4831]

Good luck on your golfing journey Freddie, well played and keep dreaming that dream as you got the minerals to make it, 6 handicap in less than a year says it all and also shows how much you love the sport Great video liam

[@roglin87]

Freddie, you are a shining light for a 16 year old. Your confidence is exceptional and well beyond your age.

[@godden25]

congratulation to young freddy what an achievement, lots of dedication and determination well done mate. Will be great to have him on the channel a few times over the coming months, already got the banter so gonna be interesting the match against Mr b cant wait.

[@dannyblair5556]

Well done Freddy, you keep going pal, and a big thanks to your mum for supporting you and helping you do something you enjoy, and are clearly good at. Can't wait for the Banger Barlow match.

[@ianredford8894]

Absolutely great to see this happen, sometimes people just fine a sport that suit them.Golf can be one of the easiest or hardest game in the world.

[@cosmicdawg]

I love this video. I have had arguments with folks when i tell them that I just started last July and I am a 17 handicap now. Golf just takes determination, practice, and willingness to find/change minute details.

[@patrickdelahunty595]

You can’t beat the confidence of youth. It will be interesting to see how he progresses over the summer months. Looking forward to seeing more of him on the channel. A big shout out to his mother for supporting his golf.

[@chrisbaker1967]

you can't beat the cast of real people you get on this channel. That lad is a credit to all.

[@kennyband6516]

Nice work Freddie and it’s great to see that golf can still attract really nice young people into the game. Hopefully Liam will take you on tour one day with him and the crew. Good luck for the future.

[@peterguildford2133]

Wow I wish I could have had the brains to take up the game when I was his age. Well done to mum for the encouragement and support. I very well done to Freddie, tour player one day? Would love to see him play regular against the rest of the lads.

[@richardblayney1878]

Love his approach to the game,most of us over think it and get into loads of trouble.Freddies approach to the game is 👍

[@danielgrassman2175]

[@lmcco2595]

What a smashing young man with a bright future ahead👍🏻. Newest member of golf mates

[@Golfingwithvince]

i love this!!! i started in the pandemic too and got my handicap down to a 6 in about a year. consistent work and effort can have some great results!!

[@Dean_R1]

I thought I did well back in 2012 getting down to 5 in 3 years lol. Great lad Freddie. Good luck to you.

[@paulmaxwell1596]

Freddy could be a future star!very down to earth and has picked up the course management way of thinking quickly.I know some people,me included at times,who don’t think about the game the way this young man does.cracking video again!

[@ej9315]

Great polite kid. Nice to have him on the channel. Great touch in the short game.

[@thed4ppa]

I started as a complete novice end of August last year. Im at about 25 handicap now consistently breaking 100, mid low 90s. Hoping by August I can really make some big steps and get my scores into the 80s. Addictive stuff!

[@ianmartin4557]

What a cracking young man. I would like to see him playing OMP, two gents together.

[@robertakasupermanrinder9819]

Great video Freddy did a great job... Hope to see him soon

[@sinned997]

What a nice lad hope to see more of him on the channel 👍

[@AverageEverydayGolfer]

Cracking video lads!! Freddie gives us all hope, that swing using the box as an aid is pure gold. Will be practicing it myself now!

[@stevescragg9777]

Played with Freddie in a comp last year.... nice lad and definitely one to watch 👍👍

[@frederickashby5577]

Cheers scraggy 🤠

[@mickrivetti9446]

What a great addition to the site Liam. Oh to be 16 again and learning to play golf like Freddie. What a player this young man could be 👍

[@leemallison4366]

Absolutely cracking video! Often teenagers get knocked, it's great to see so much dedication and confidence. Hope to see more of him on the channel.

[@richardllewellyn2633]

Well played Freddy. Seems a lovely lad and some great work to get down to 6 in a year

[@barrystepniak5147]

Freddy you have a place in golf. Keep up the good work. Get Liam to set you up with some good clubs.

[@ThatBonzaLife]

Most impressive thing for me is how relaxed he is and not trying to muscle his way around the course. Great to see such a level headed young lad.

[@tysonkahler]

That was a GREAT idea for a video! Well done Freddy!!!

[@Andymacauley1]

Brilliant to see a young lad doing well and enjoying the game.

[@PLRMoto]

Love to see the commitment he’s putting into his game. Not many adults these days would get up at 6am to go play golf never mind a young lad doing it before school. Well done Freddie ⛳️🏌️‍♂️👏

[@duncanrhodes4778]

A great find to add to the Golfmates team. I hope we will see Freddie again soon.

[@mziyabo]

What confident lad. He has a chance to make it to the big lights.

[@jimjamjomjn]

Keep up the great work Freddy and golf mates, nice work with the camera and in front of the camera.

[@Jay-iy3qk]

Fantastic boys,brilliant video and well done Freddy lad⛳👍

[@davidanderson6661]

Very polite, friendly young man, demonstrates power of lessons, practice and even temperament

[@markkeating3609]

Don't care who you are and what your background is. A 6 handicap is impressive at that age, add in the experience and it's downright astounding. And I'm not ashamed to admit I'm a little jealous. I look forward to a match with Steve. If only to hear those cutting Barlow assessments of one's game. 👍

[@lcpp5804]

Well done, Freddy. You present as a true gentleman for such a young lad, and a natural talent at golf. Keep at it and you'll go far in golf and life 👍⛳

[@aimeagle]

Well done Freddy! Keep having fun man! I thought it was windy here in the US when I golfer yesterday and the wind was only about 18-20mph. That breeze looked horrible!

[@keithharris6442]

Freddie is a great addition to the channel. A future club champion within 3 years I reckon. Great additude too. Looks a natural on camera. Bring on Barlow !

[@eddiemann1371]

OMP and Freddy vs Pete and Mr B. What a genuine lad hope he becomes a success

[@tigger251259]

Lovely, likeable lad. Full of confidence and just plays his own game. Doesn't even worry when he's off target. Future star in the making.

[@alistairflynn5927]

Great to see, dedication and hard work does pay, hope to see more of Freddie, him v Barlow would be quality 👍

[@robertarthur2482]

This is the channel of TALENT. Well played Freddie.

[@ericmcgowan1724]

Great lad and one to watch in the future.

[@justmythought1586]

A great addition to the channel. Hope to see more of Freddie.

[@chrismcneil9947]

Class young man . More videos like this liam . Help get more young people involved in the game 👏🏻

[@simplyinxs]

Great to see a young man of that age playing golf, alot more should follow suit. No fear at all which is to his benefit

[@bringonbrilliance]

Fantastic Freddie 👏 I would be happy with half that talent and been playing a lot longer than you. Get back on the channel soon young man. Thanks again golfmates.

[@ianglover940]

Great stuff Freddie. Always enjoy your golf, even if you have a bad round

[@jasonschaupp5874]

Well played young man 👨 what a swing. 👏👏

[@juliansaunders6896]

Great to see younger players. Well played freddy all the best

[@pachelseafc]

Nice genuine lad is Freddie, let's see him play with OMP so the master can coach the apprentice, great stuff as always Liam 👍👍🏌️

[@ukgroucho]

Rea;;y good golfer for a year (or less) Good swing and lots of power - and quite analytical in terms of what a shot will deliver. Very good! I expect to see Freddie on tour in the next 2 or 3 years. Just keep applying yourself - be confident, be humble - people will love you and your natural skills and work ethic will reap the rewards that you deserve.

[@bobbyhale3327]

Good addition to the channel ⛳️👍

[@derekclark9646]

Great lad and you have to get him on again and see what he is like against one of the pro's. I think he would be great as he will have no fear. Looking forward to seeing him against Mr B. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

[@vincentattle5879]

Well done Freddy what great attitude and commitment and enjoying it

[@ryrarebadun]

That’s the confidence all golfers should try emulate! Not one negative thought in his mind, quality lad too. 👏🏼

[@AdamnSarah]

He’s a great young man! Love it that he’s learning by watching OMP.

[@GaryTurpie]

Freddie was a gem on camera and his golf wasn't bad either

[@andymoakes813]

great story and nice lad, lets see more of him and the Bolton Bangers

[@karlportsmouth5571]

Great stuff gents, Freddie will be a great addition to the golf mates stable, he'll get used to the filming, I look forward to seeing some banter with the others, I reckon that ebay Pete could sort out some decent clubs for him(just a hint) Nice one Liam.
