I took my new golf swing to the course in CRAZY conditions

[@RobMcGarr]

Here's the video about the swing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXrWY2ugaLVpg7M

[@andyward2958]

So good to see you back Rob, I really, really enjoy your videos. +11 in atrocious conditions so soon after your comeback is good stuff and I'd love to see more of you stacking and tilting, at least until you have 'trapped' the swing. To coin another Moe Norman-ism I also think you would benefit from developing 'a feeling of greatness' for those pressure rounds :)

[@Newts65]

I’m liking this new swing. Thanks to your last video, I’ve been following Saguto and this may work for me. Keep it up.

[@Alan_Edwards]

What possessed you to golf in a monsoon brother. I don't mind some rain, but golfing in the wind sucks. You did do surprisingly well though I have to say. A one stroke per hole handicap is more than fair in those conditions. I have been practicing with the Saguto method for a few months now and am hitting my irons better than I ever have in my life. But I am not doing as well with my hybrids and woods. Funny thing is before I changed my swing I could not hit my irons well at all....especially my longer irons so I swapped them out for hybrids. Looks like I might need to go back to using long irons because I am not giving up the sweet contact (and divots) I am getting now for anything. Really cool to see you having success with this method as well. Gives me more confidence it is not a fluke. Although like you mentioned, I did not see as much weight on your left side like the last video. As you know it takes time to make those type of changes part of your normal routine. Your closing thoughts were spot on too. Exactly how I feel about this swing. It is so different but the results just speak for themselves...for me anyway. I have been round and round with swing changes, but I feel like I finally found one that fits my style of golf and does not require nearly as much effort. So I am fully committed and have no plans to go back to my old swing. In fact I just signed on with Saguto Golf to get access to even more information. I hope you stick with it too, but I get if you don't. Golf is a very personal sport to be sure.

[@Reapswtf]

Thanks Rob, appreciate the content! Good effort in those conditions! I've just found some stuff in my swing and it's ramped up my power, so I'm in an exciting place with my golfing right now too. Enjoy your wedding and the marathon, I'm sure you'll smash it!

[@RobMcGarr]

Thanks dude!

[@Killiecrankie6300]

Brilliant to see you back playing golf👍 Always enjoyed your golf vlogs more than most other tubers. I think you might have even struggled to play the guitar in those conditions 😂

[@RobMcGarr]

Haha think you're right!

[@rossco1986]

gotta love a bit of golf in conditions like this just you against the elements!! got test of mental strength. also nice shorts and wooly hat combo 😂

[@silviomontanari8506]

Great video Rob, you navigated those very harsh conditions very well. And I see signs that your new swing is already starting to give you more consistency.

[@davidwood592]

That was solid playing for those conditions. You should keep playing this swing, as most of the shots were struck solidly. Saguto is definitely helping your game.

[@RobMcGarr]

Yeah step in the right direction, more to do! 🙏

[@jesjen2407]

Hey from Denmark Epic! and great you are grinding and back to golf again - I like your videos with Liam - Good work Rob

[@RobMcGarr]

Thanks, and keep your eyes peeled on that front!

[@albertofernandez-sanguino3373]

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in a howling gale!! 🤣🤣 Well done for playing all 18 holes. A calmer day and you'll be ripping it! Btw have experienced something similar but instead of rain, it was sleet..... Brrrr!!

[@napoleonwilliams444]

Love it Rob! Question, I remember a few years back you did a video with the Zen guys (Danny I believe) why do you think you got away from them? The only reason I ask is I have been obsessed with their videos ever since I watched them on your channel 1st. It’s transformed my game completely! I went from a mid to high handicapper to single digits quickly. I’m in the United States with no hands on possibilities with the Zen team and I am still killing it.

[@niallvbrennan6629]

Lovely rhythm in your golf swing, quite smooth despite the lousy conditions. Decent round with new swing Just one suggestion: maybe try stack and tilt on the tripod too😁. Best of luck in the marathon, a great undertaking☘

[@RobMcGarr]

Bit too much tilt on it, not enough stack!

[@longevity-essentials]

love it mate! windy conditions are so cool - like Bodi in Point Break looking for the perfect monster wave - so challenging ! how do you get the shot tracer? That is awesome.

[@seanchambers8950]

Couple quick points! Just found the channel last night. But I watched the video on the swing, looks weird. But I actually gave it a go today on the back 9. And I think it was really good. Shots were straight, good distance and pretty easy swing. And my second point, are you crazy playing in those conditions? Lol. I live in California, and generally don’t play if it’s under 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@iancox8619]

Well done Rob difficult conditions too early for results, from a new swing time will tell .👍⛳️

[@RobMcGarr]

100% mate

[@anthonybennett6089]

Great video Rob and really interested in seeing how you get on.

[@percyhallam5883]

Good article in ‘Todays Golfer’ Rob! Are you swinging faster on the course now?

[@RobMcGarr]

Cheers dude but it’s actually something I wrote a few years ago for Golf World that’s just been republished. That said, seeing it reminded me of the session so I did a bit of speed training yesterday! 💪

[@glynpicknell9946]

Fair play to you Rob, no way I would of played in that, swing looks good too 👏👍

[@adamisaacmusic]

Pretty respectable score in those conditions. RND is a strange and tough test at the best of times. I remember playing there in a junior open many years ago and there was a big hail storm on the back 9 and it really hurt my ears 😆

[@mawilliams1978]

Good effort...looked pretty extreme conditions and I certainly felt the cold watching u playing in those shorts 🥶 BTW what course is that?

[@GerarddeVries]

I had the same experience when I changed to S&T. Better strikes and more consistent

[@rockitman7276]

Great ball striking considering the conditions, days like that you usually get the course to yourself 👌

[@RobMcGarr]

Few other troopers/nutters out there!

[@rockitman7276]

😅😂🤣 I would be one of those nutters 👍

[@paull544]

Looking forward to watching your new swing on a normal day. Have you moved to Devon?

[@RobMcGarr]

Me too! Yep, just round the corner from Royal North Devon.

[@davidwalters313]

Did I hear you mention it was a bit windy Rob? Where is the course? Great video!

[@RobMcGarr]

Haha wasn’t sure if you could tell! Royal North Devon ⛳️

[@fat-shotgolf2937]

I thought I was watching a disaster movie 🎬 Blowing a gale, rain, obviously cold, yet you wear shorts - Respect 🙏 Your shots all appeared to be well struck. I've signed up for the Saguto Golf instruction, have you?. Let's hope I can succeed like you appear to have. Thanks 👍

[@shootzer78]

Great video as always pal 👍

[@rgaskell6099]

That’s dedication for you. Keep grinding fella

[@christiaankriel420]

Went to the range with tom saguro in mind and it took about 10 balls and I was striping it.. the biggest difference was with the driver, nice long draws. Hes a madman but his instruction works.

[@steventinker3958]

Bro, props to you for trying out there today. The only thing I could say to make you feel better is that you probably got PCC on that round.

[@chrisdixon2843]

11 over in that wind! Crazy good 👍

[@iainwyper9661]

Think of the positives Rob. At least nobody held you up 😉 Reminded me of a competition I played at St Andrews Dukes course on the day they called off the Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor. Weather was even worse in St Andrews but it was the final of a national competition and folk had driven from all over the country so out we went 🙈😬 Thought you hit it well and that was a very respectable effort in those conditions 👏👏👏

[@MrJohnmantle]

Where are you with your swing at mo ??? Hopefully you’ve continued with Tom !!!

[@Aaronfps2]

In that wind I recon a tour pro could hit a par 5 green from the tee easily maybe not even need a driver to do so

[@ojs9068]

At least you had your hat, you'd have been freezing otherwise. On the new swing, aside from the wind it looks like your shots are starting on the line you're aiming for, that's always good.

[@Doraus1]

I could do with a chopped down version of the 165 and 300 + Drive, to flash in front of the Guy that says I always hit 280 off the Tee. It was nice to see real Golf for a change.

[@RobMcGarr]

That’s a good idea, might make that into a little short or something! 🙌

[@MrBadassbuddha]

Personally i thought that was a good score in those conditions mate, good luck with the London snickers 😉👊👊

[@RobMcGarr]

Yeah certainly no shame in that score. Cheers!

[@the_cardchasersportscards771]

I have changed my swing after using the Sugoto swing I can finally hit the ball constantly

[@jacklush9954]

“Worms eye view” 😂

[@RobMcGarr]

🪱

[@neilgooders6758]

What an awful noise, I’m just talking about the Kardashian 😂😂. Still a good video Rob, keep up the good work mate.

[@rizwankanji6258]

Shorts? Are crazy Rob?

[@EYESPYUSA1]

Good job

[@canefan17]

Love the cut-a-ways lol “He always has a million excuses”

[@stevefurniaux9978]

Think you need to record on another day when it's closer to normal conditions, far play on a day like that though and still in the shorts.

[@ping7979]

+11 in those conditions is amazing.

[@RobMcGarr]

Yeah I was grinding!

[@arborflooring7897]

Which course is that Rob? Thx

[@RobMcGarr]

Royal North Devon

[@arborflooring7897]

Will try it sometime:)

[@charlieharvey2758]

Tripods over! It's a Rob Mcgarr video... Shorts... In that weather?! Are you mad?!

[@RobMcGarr]

Evidently! 🤦‍♂️

[@Mr.mallaer]

What’s the point of playing in the storm?

[@will8804]

Hi Rob. Will you be sticking with your new swing?

[@MsRocketRoy]

In shorts too....bonkers 😂😂

[@johnsouza4391]

What was the point? Remembered a round with Tiger and Marayama playing in only slightly worst conditions. 83 in th Open. Keep yor chin up! And try to work on your new swing in conditions where you can concentrate on it

[@golfendeavor8267]

wow, I would have made 9 holes at best. Congrats, that was mad 💨🌧🌬😬

[@gb8327]

Come and play in Cape Town Rob - will happily host you for a few rounds.

[@sonny2480]

You're off your nut mate. Birds don't fly in that weather 😂

[@RobMcGarr]

Haha, birds don't fly and sheep don't hang around.

[@Aaronfps2]

I shot +12 the other day my handicap index being 9.2 but I felt like I shot like +30

[@Aaronfps2]

Once u get to scratch u should do a road to single figures left handed series 😂

[@bknoxx]

thats crazy lol... where do you live ?

[@GHOSTOFEIGHT]

😂 that was ridiculous. I cry when it’s 15 mph winds.

[@RobMcGarr]

Only way to get 15mph or less in North Devon is to stay indoors!

[@euroswilliams7303]

“Conditions are awful” but wearing shorts but with a bobble hat 😝

[@dougm659]

Clearly you haven’t played a lot of golf in Scotland mate….too many of your shots are waaaayyyy up in the air at the mercy of the wind. Hitting stinger drives 10 feet off the ground and bump and run shots from 50 yards and in are the only way to score in conditions like those! 😉

[@RobMcGarr]

Yeah I'm going to have to change my trajectory, I think!

[@marcussymons2172]

He plays at Westwood Ho!... Trust me, he'll know wind

[@Handletaken4]

In wind at 150 instead of a full 8i take a 3/4 5i

[@ricardoperoni901]

You have to try new ideas if u want to improve unless of course you are a plus hcp. Just FYI the biggest improvements in my swing have come from a swing thought that has worked straight away not from hitting thousands of balls down the range. Although the range is good to ingrain something good. I’m sure good players have a different thought pattern or feel to hitting the ball but because it comes naturally they can’t verbalise it. Most crappy players have a very similar swing. Almost always fast transition, lead with the hands, OTT and flippy at impact decelerating through the ball. Add in a sprinkle of head up and a lack of confidence for good measure and you’re doomed. All good golfers have similar traits to each other, good balance, stability, good timing, leading with the hips, finishing the swing properly and lagging the club more and holding on to it longer. It looks effortless. I won’t say where I am on the spectrum. 😂play well. Richy.

[@brianmurray4199]

This is a real golfer, play in extreme shitty weather and complain about it the whole time while wearing shorts😂 that's why I live here where it's 28-32°c all year round

[@chrisdorgan8802]

Respect to man in shorts

[@ashkanarjangfar7542]

hey rob you havent reached out to me when i commented on your video a couple videos ago i asked you what do you think i should do about my hair bro? im losing my hair at an early age im only 24 and my hairline is receding what should i do? please let me know bro

[@RobMcGarr]

I did reply to one of your comments. My advice would be to watch kzbin.info and either embrace what you've got or buzz it off - up to you though man! 😎

[@stephenwilkinson3549]

Who wants to play golf in these conditions, if you have to yeah ,like a competition maybe ,but really whats point

[@RobMcGarr]

It was then or wait a whole week 🤷

[@stephenwilkinson3549]

@@RobMcGarr fair play Rob just looked horrible conditions, do like your channel though mate thanks for replying, carry on good work

[@RobMcGarr]

@@stephenwilkinson3549 Oh it was awful (probably mentioned that a few times 😂) I was just desperate to get out and give it a go. Plus hopefully next time it’ll feel easy in comparison! 😎

[@Pooler29]

What's the point of taking a new swing change out to the course in conditions like that...wait for a decent day
