[@MJ-er5ll]

You're awesome, funny, keep doing what you're doing, good luck with everything, and have a great day!😀🏌️‍♂️⛳

[@lewis7028]

Hi James, thank you for everything you do, i’ve been ill with a golf these last few days and your videos have helped me, thank you again and keep doing what you’re doing 🙏

[@jamessnyder5390]

Thanks for the videos, James! This one really put it all in perspective..

[@garylaird1698]

Need to get your guests miked up James. Really spoils video listening to a one sided conversation. It would be interesting to hear the thoughts of high handicapers when their playing?

[@michaelrose4792]

Absolutely...would be great to hear their thoughts on each shot and any feedback from James.

[@damonbaartz255]

I’m playing 31.4 my goal is to enjoy myself when ever I play golf

[@johngrimes1358]

Loving the Will videos.... great encouragement and some great pointers for the rest of us.

[@bodhisattva4080]

Excellent video James. I've watched a few of your videos and found them very informative however I can really relate to this one. I'm a 27 handicap and sometimes feel like a leper when I walk onto the course😄. Its great to see someone of a similar handicap being guided by someone so positive, it makes all the difference👌🏼. Made me think of someone srarting a job apprentiship in the good old days and having a teacher who really knows his trade. Have subscribed to your channel following this and hoping to see similar content in the future. Many Thanks👍🏼

[@ybach64]

Foxy + James, v Will + Chris match that would be a good watch.

[@benronnie8648]

i guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a way to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid lost the password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.

[@bobronson5049]

@Ben Ronnie Instablaster =)

[@benronnie8648]

@Bo Bronson thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@benronnie8648]

@Bo Bronson it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much you saved my account !

[@bobronson5049]

@Ben Ronnie no problem :)

[@JKibb]

I rarely comment on videos but I just had to come back to comment! I watched this video a couple of weeks ago after playing shocking not breaking a 100 again with a 105. This weekend just gone, I scored an 85!!!! Your advice of setting up to the ball, thinking about hitting the ball like a football resonated with me and it helped me massively, especially off the tee with the driver! I used to be scared to hit the driver as I always sliced it but now! love it! Big thanks to you James!

[@DavidSmith-lo7wf]

Love seeing you out with higher handicappers. Foxy and Will etc. Great content. Keep developing

[@niebaum12]

22-23 and I am trying to break 90! Touched 90 once this summer but working towards a 18 handicap by next summer! Great stuff James!

[@richardclarke9966]

Love to know where you're at now, 3 years on...

[@christhomas1141]

Love the videos, no idea how you manage to keep up the daily and edit these all. I’ll be back tomorrow

[@TheMovieSpreadsheet]

Your content got me back into the game. Appreciate it!

[@ryanmoore1388]

Great video!!! Lots of fun. I am a 19 handicap trying to get a handle on my fairway woods. 18 handicap was always my goal so if I can just improve a little more and hang on to it, I’ll be pretty happy.

[@kieranwinstone6097]

Alright James, only recently started playing golf self taught, been playing just coming on 3 months I played my first full 18 round the other week and LOVED IT! My handicap is 36, I’ve gotten addicted to the game and just want to improve in every aspect of my game especially my driving, but I just want to improve every time I get the clubs out of the bag! Love the videos!

[@glenolzewski6714]

Started breaking 90 last year and the start of this year I was back to shooting 92-96. Now back to shooting 85. Lot of work and taking a lesson which really helped. Good luck all. Thanks James.

[@mattheatherington]

Great video James, really enjoyed this format and hope to see more on course practical tips for us high handicappers . Would love to see more that covers grip ,posture ,feet setup , chipping etc . Practical tips that anyone can apply and see result . Cheers from Canada

[@marcthomson6882]

Currently playing off 28. Set myself the goal of breaking 100 before the end of the summer. Managed to achieve it with a 94 yesterday. Onto the next target now.

[@tommyboston7976]

Very relatable for me being a 26.9 hcp at the moment

[@paulmarjoram2258]

Playing off 16 and working hard to stay there. Not a spring chicken anymore and my bones have started to creak.👍

[@richardkaloostian9048]

Very appropriate video for me, thank you. I'm a 20 handicap who is trying to consistently score below 90. I've improved my ball striking this season, but it hasn't translated to lower scores as I'm still adjusting to the distance I'm getting.

[@Sk82478]

Great video nice up and down for par at the end of the video will! Those get me just as hyped as a birdie putt! I’m working on trying to get down to bogey golf as well. Trying to break 100 right now. Good luck thanks for the content!

[@anomie6788]

Really great to see some one helping Foxy, he keeps a great attitude when things are going right. As a high handicapper as well he said some thing very important , we us high handicappers have the trouble of the tee. I never know where the ball is going using my driver. To break 90 I use my 3 wood of the tee every time.

[@andrewthompson8434]

I started playing two years ago around the time your first video came out. I started on a 22 handicap and now down to 14 trying to crack to single figures but due to covid I’ll be waiting another 6 months to improve

[@HJayGolf]

Loving the content. I play off 23 at the moment and roughly the same age as the guys trying to break 90,started playing about 6 months ago. Be great to come up for a lesson and join this break 90 competition between will and Foxy...

[@jonathancorso1043]

Great video. Good to see some real time instruction during the round.

[@povrtsux1]

Very nice and helps see how you play. Thanks!

[@nathanpuckett448]

Very true, hardest part is getting off the tee into decent position, bought myself a Calloway Bertha mini 1.5 and an Epic flash 3 hybrid to try off the tee this year

[@darrenleake3343]

Very relatable. after 10 years away i got on a course again after lockdown, got my first handicap of 29, and have only broken 100 twice, with 2 97's, and got cut a couple of days ago to 26.3. Looking at breaking 100 consistently, and will be looking at breaking 90 in the not too distant future. My aim is bogey golf atm, which should fulfil both goals at the same time.

[@keithwalker1780]

Great video James. My official handicap is 7.8. My goal is to get as low as possible but would be extremely satisfied to get to a 4. That's what I played to in college and through my 30's. But time away from the course for career and raising a family it went up to the 10's. But now with all that behind me my focus is back on the golf course and I'm working to get my handicap as low as I can. My advice to people who want to lower their handicap is to play with people who are better players than yourself. Watch how they play and their course management.

[@tonydonald4937]

Bogey golf is about getting the ball on the green in +1 and 2 putting...not getting it close to the flag but on the green!!! Once you come to that realization bogey golf becomes easier. Breaking 80 is a refinement of chipping and putting and making 50% of your 6 feet putts from my perspective. .....James/Will I have enjoyed your videos!!!!

[@davidwalker9088]

James great video. At 18 trying to get lower lost 6 shots this year with new clubs. Would love some extra tips to get this lower. Video's always informative and I get something out of each one

[@steveboyd6645]

Great video! As a returning 'golfer' after 15yrs (previously off 8) I am surprised how difficult it is to strike the ball consistently and with reasonable distances. Let me say it's not like riding a bike! New Mizuno clubs and having needed to buy trolley, bag, clothing etc I'm wondering if I should have invested in a fishing rod 😬🤣. Still love the game and will be working on my swing through to Spring before joining a club 🙂

[@thomasconway5466]

Always great content with cheer! Currently 18.6 and trying to get to 14 or beyond. Low round of 83 and I haven’t been able to repeat or beat....yet!

[@kennethrussell3044]

Good positive and constructive comments, well done. Will needs to give a tad more feedback.

[@markbailey9503]

My son has just started playing golf James he has started to play on a par three golf course and is doing ok thinking of taking him on full course when he starts to get more confident can't wait to he said golf was boring now he has got the bug 🏌️‍♂️⛳👍

[@andrewmurphy4921]

I tend to get 28 as only play once every other week,(work and pain),suffered a massive dtroke 15 year sgo during a footy match and retired so got the clubs out and tried getting back into it for exercise yet loving it again

[@ddogg14]

what a par on the last there from Will! great scramble

[@colinmark6956]

I'm a 25 handicap and looking to also break 90. I came close with a 92. But then couple of rounds later lot's of mistakes come into play and I get 102!! So frustrating but we keep trying. Keep up the good work, I'm loving the content.

[@MrBlurryeyes]

Great video James, I'm playing off 19 at the moment but struggling to break lower than 85 per round. My short game is bad at the moment. No confidence with shots lower than 90 yards.

[@cecilielagerbon3848]

23 hcp, trying to break 90 (92 last week is my lowest score). At the moment struggling with my rhythm, specially with my irons. Lesson tomorrow will hopefully help 🙃

[@stevenkockott7279]

That would be a great match to watch. As I’m a high handicapper as well.

[@danlynch1154]

Well done Will.

[@Mark260871]

Thinking of getting back into Golf, had a 8 year break from playing regularly. Was at Low Laithes and got down to 9 handicap.

[@danielcohen3159]

Good video! I'm a single-digit handicap and I'm STILL thinking mainly "Keep it in play" on the tee and "Get it somewhere on the green" when I'm chipping and pitching. Well...get it somewhere close if possible. But the point is what James says: minimize the mistakes that you can and don't get worked up about bad shots. That last part I'm still working on.

[@dazzlerwill8698]

Great video. Currently off 26.8 and hoping to try and get close to 20

[@barrygribben2531]

Getting off the tee is my main issue too so this was a helpful video. Generally after that my irons and putting are acceptable and I can manage around the course. A lot of the time I resort to using 4 iron off the tee just to try and make a score

[@joetaylor1712]

I do enjoy watching Will I am a 30 handicap and trying to stay in the 90s at this time. I want to break 90 so bad. I have shot 91 five times so far this year. I always have two holes during my round that kills my score.

[@aaronowen91]

Awesome video yet again, not sure what my handicap is as im a new golfer but believe i can be good lol dont we all, that's the fun of golf.

[@Davidefc]

Not played for few years, just getting back into golf looking at getting handicap soon hope to get somewhere near my old one of 12 that's would be nice

[@hb2sami]

I’m in my second season of golf. Much like Will. I shoot in the mid nineties. My best three rounds this summer are 92. I’m still trying to break 90. When my driver is working I have a legitimate chance. It’s my second or approach shots from 130 or more out that is my biggest struggle. I’m one bad stroke per hole from getting into the 80’s.

[@jackvliet]

Sweet vid as always

[@golfbreak8081]

I'm a 13.3 HC atm. I'm going to work on my fitness over the winter and try to have a monthly golf lesson. Really make a push this winter to improve and finally break80 and get my cap down to 9 👍⛳🏌️‍♂️

[@pamelanield9798]

I play off 28. I have such inconsistency with my driver, lands me into all sorts of trouble when I need it the most 🤷‍♂️ Video was great, really useful content so well done - only negative was the sound 😊thank you

[@danwesson1934]

Everyone hates when you point out they are aiming wrong. It’s something they have to figure out on their own. I don’t blame you James for keeping hush.

[@declanmeenan7360]

I was off 22 at the start the season and now current down to 17 wanted 18 at start but happy to be down more, putting was always my problem, had 10 3 putts on captains day then changed my putter to one with alingment on it, and went and won the next comp with 1 three putt in round

[@David-lx6kx]

I've been shooting 100+ since I picked up golf near the start of quarantine. Working hard and watching lots of your videos on that road to break 100; hopefully it'll start paying off and I"ll get there soon!

[@richardclarke9966]

Love to know where you're at now, 3 years on...

[@peterfriedle6895]

My problem is the opposite to Will's - i can get off the tee with booming drives, but iron game is inconsistent. Good video 👍

[@nickorwin2336]

Enjoyed the video it would be great to break 90 consistently, playing off 27 for 3 years now and cant seem to get out of the rut but love the game come rain or shine

[@jamesadams4632]

I’m a 19 from the white tees and a 14 from the senior tees. Last year I started out as a 26 from the whites and 22 from the senior (gold) tees. I’ve been hitting in the high 80s and aiming for the low 80s. Just got a new set of Callaway Mavrik Max irons. I shot a 46-39 the first time out with the new irons. I just need to keep the ball in the short grass and try not to kill the ball!

[@sshadow2]

You just described my game of 2 years. Currently tracking to 23.1 (also thx to The Grint app). I can consistently break 100 but 90 has be thus far elusive. Bring the match on! I also don't like my shirt tucked in.

[@craigbond7855]

22, shot 88 and 90 through the summer. Stripping game back with lessons over winter and hoping to be 17 by mid summer.

[@danny6949]

loving the content Robbo, foxy v will 18 holes slog needs to happen

[@ThePoliceftw]

hola la verdad muy bueno video lo disfrute bastante necesito el siguiente grabación los dejo les envio besis gracias

[@michaelmayling5245]

I like watching your videos great content.

[@pmportella]

i m guessing Will has the speedzone extreme combo-ed with the 3hybrid cobra? great clubs i got them.

[@christopherthompson8536]

Full 18 holes match. Will v Foxy. Would love to watch that as it's relatable to myself as a high handicap golfer.

[@efng21]

First year I've played golf seriously, and I'm also on a quest to break 90 by seasons end. My last 3 rounds were 94 94 97. Handicap according to the SwingU app is 31. I need to learn to read greens because 2-3 putting EVERY(literally) hole is the biggest reason I haven't broke 90 yet.

[@lachlanryan436]

Gone from 10.5 down to 8.5 in the last 3 weeks. Finally got a couple scores in the 70s after being in the 80s for a long time. Hoping to consistently break 80.

[@karlstorr9817]

14.1hcp working towards single figures got new irons got my lessons hopefully next year I can have a proper charge at it.

[@PWG0LF]

My goal is to beat my lowest ever handicap of 3.5 this season. I was back up at 5.5 after lockdown but I've lost 1.8 shots in my last 3 rounds after a run of 73, 68 and 75 and I'm currently back down to 3.8. The -3, 68 gross was my lowest under par round and the first time I've broken 70 which has always been a goal of mine.

[@michaelreilly5888]

I am playing off of a 9.1 index but it's been a difficult season at age 71. Haven't been able to play or practice as much. I'd like to build a stable base after I return from a shoulder injury and start striking the ball more solidly and consistently.

[@paulwright6297]

I'm currently off 13 and my aim is to get to single figures and I'm currently working on finding that consistency to score lower

[@adamgoodman3448]

I’ve just been given my first official handicap of 14.0. I’ve been playing for a while and managing to play to 18. The challenge of 14 seems very daunting!🙈

[@brucenewton7845]

I do not have a handicap, but guess I'd be around 25. My immediate goal is to break 100 and with the points you've talked about in this video I can see myself on the way to 90 in no time

[@nickcelano6715]

I have only been playing for 3 months. Around 25 handicap. My quest too is to be in 90s consistently. I have totally falling love with the game. I only lost 1 ball driving the ball on 18. Best driving day of my short golf life. OF COURSE my chipping and putting sucked...😣

[@jereklee3224]

Been playing almost 5 months and my handicap is a 20.4 I’d like to break 90 really soon! My best and about 3 rounds ago was a 92. But my real goal is a consistent 80

[@nickcrout8966]

Just down to 23 after being cut 2.8 and getting more consistent off the tee, finding more fairways. Getting a second shot is the key

[@davidbarnard5873]

Inactive at the moment looking to get back into a club and get the handicap, stopped off 3 but still can break par on a good day so scratch the aim next year

[@toonlad4091]

I got my handicap last month 6.9 and been shooting between 6 and 9+ which a handful of crap shots mainly off the tee and my irons. I was out last night and fixed both, my swing with my driver is far too fast on the backswing which makes me slice and my right shoulder isn't getting through on my iron downswing.......remembering this on the field should see me hit 5+ consistently......we'll see lol Played golf since late April ( 4 months) after 13 years out of the game and Worst score was 104 gross, best 76 gross. What I found was working on my within 100 yard game and drives keeping your ball in play off the tee is crucial for a low score but having the confidence to get out the 50-58° wedges and stick them within 15 feet then 1 or 2 putting is where you see the strokes drop off.

[@davidgardiner1979]

awsome clubs and putter for a high handicapper!

[@alanl902]

Currently an 8 handicap. Working on being able to shape shots, mainly wanting to hit a little draw on all my clubs. Of course could always be a better putter as well.

[@warrenburch6545]

My current handicap is 37.2. Working on my iron play trying to strike the ball better.

[@jordfoth]

Really want to get into golf as an avid carp angler the tranquility and competitiveness and just the love of being outdoors appeals to me and enjoying watching golf I want to take it up as another hobby but I don't want to look a fool out on the course or even on the driving rage for that matter 😔

[@nicholasmartin3540]

Playing at a 4.7 currently, really trying to become a better putter as I average about 35-36 putts a round. Also would love to shoot even par for a round

[@sinterklaasje1975]

handicap 17.3 (=playing handicap 10 on my homecourse) - came down from 23.6 beginning of this year... together with my Pro... working towards 15...

[@erny95]

Would love to see your review on the new Taylor made spider putter compared to a Scotty or other main brand putters

[@damienscales]

Hi James, another quality video! I'm currently off 16 but am having a few lessons and practising religiously on my short game to get to single figures. I'd love to have a round with yourself Regards Damien

[@marcsimmonds5483]

My first handicap was 24. Lots of fun and heartache getting it down to 13.

[@steveharper9427]

Still play every hole to 5 , now a 15.8hdc , before lockdown 24 , around the greens cost me a lot of shots , nearly always short with them

[@johncunnington6437]

Broke 90 the other week for the first time. And was 3 over through 7 on Monday then blew up with 4 bad holes but came back with a 2 the rescue a 92. Need to stop the silly shots and driver playing up. Playing off 21 at the mo at sherdley pk

[@masimcox]

I am a 61 year old returning golfer having not played much for around 20 years (work etc). Im trying my best, had a couple of lessons but so much has changed especially my body mechanics! James how do you fancy taking on a project/challenge for your channel?

[@Deacon4105]

1 shot of breaking 100 today was fairly gutted but I did hit some nice strikes and putts so all good! Plus I’m a 34 handicap

[@brianmcpeake2509]

I am a 10 hc that sometimes struggles with lag putting and learning that I do not need to hit driver on certain holes.

[@danielmarks7816]

This is exactly me right now. 27hc. I have yet to break 100. Been really close though.

[@tommiethatcher7265]

Will’s swing is looking good and with your help his handicap is soon going to drop and drop

[@sware3132]

26 to 28 cap. just coming off a bad back injury and just loving being able to get back out and play. would definitely like to see Will vs Foxy

[@nevillehubbard7347]

Handicap now 10 (9.9) after a net 67 in this morning’s medal! Trying to get back down to single figures (last played off 9 in 2017).

[@useyourblues]

I'm a 20 handicap from the middle tee's. I'd like to be able to break 90 from the next tee's back (not quite the tips) as I'm driving the ball further these days.
