BETHPAGE BLACK COURSE - PART 6

[@jameslovering9158]

Well done Dan taking the final putt and nailing it for a clean sweep coast to coast.👍👍👍 That last hole "up and down" from Dan was class, shows his abilities are just a shade above and a real addition to this channel IMHO.

[@RJMConsultingCDOs]

Yes, well done Dan. Shame that MC has to "give" the last putt (and thereby take away a little of the sweetness from an honest win). Tad bit of "you didn't win, I lost" attitude. Hate it when my buddies pull that.

[@swisstrader]

I play Black quite often being from the area....your learn pretty quickly not to using anything more than a wedge if your the rough even if your only 160-180 out. And just assume you will be 10 strokes over what your normal score is and expect 5+ hour rounds. Still an amazing setup. Love it

[@jlash259]

swisstrader 5 hour rounds wow so it stays busy every day?

[@swisstrader]

jlash259 it packed during golf season every day of the week. 5 hour rounds just more about how many shots being taken vs people playing slow.

[@msalzberg4962]

@@jlash259 I'd say the length and the hills easily add a half hour to each round, and the difficulty adds another half hour.

[@RJMConsultingCDOs]

I haven't played there(Black) in about eight years, but we used to get around in under 5 hrs, esp. if we got off before 8a. I don't remember ever having to wait on a tee for more than a couple of minutes, and by the turn everyone was spread out. (Unlike the Blue... I walked off the 11th hole after 4 hrs... Tired of being two groups deep on every par three.)

[@msalzberg4962]

@@RJMConsultingCDOs About 15 years ago you could get around in 5 hours if you went out before 9am. A couple of years later you had to go out before 8am. The only time you go longer than 5 on the Black is if some tourist is in front of you, wanting to take photos on every tee. The blue backs up terribly on the 3rd and the 7th (both front par 3s), and on the dreaded 6th. It usually gets better on the back.

[@jacobpoole2156]

just got through watching your entire US tour here. Should've been called "two muppets play the hardest courses you could ever play." Thoroughly enjoyed it Mark. Thanks for bringing us around with you, it's a joy to watch.

[@bjmorris64]

It must be hard for Dan, being a competitive person, to have Mark generally lay down and quit whenever he’s not hitting them the way he wants to, while Dan generally gives almost every shot the best attention he can muster.

[@MarkCrossfield]

Hard for him or hard for me 😉

[@lkjh00on89]

Think Mark was dealing with a sore back.

[@MD20-20]

Dan just doesn’t mess around. Gets his yardage, picks his club, sets his bag down, three or four words, not even a practice swing, and hits it. Love it. What a great trip fellas. Living the dream vicariously through the muppets. Just class.

[@paulconway993]

I think the wind blowing made it an even better vlog..just shows how savage the course was and how it actually lived up to its reputation..brilliant.👍🏼

[@art_nerd_official]

So SO cool to watch team, Loved this tour!!!! I subscribed to your channel about 6 years ago and have just came back to it, the content it top notch lads, well done!!!

[@tracys2354]

Wish you guys would have discussed the round at the end similar to what you guys did at Pebble. Commentary about the course, what you liked/disliked, etc. What the PGA will be like, etc. That course is almost ridiculous with the wind and the back tees for a championship.

[@killacamfoo]

Great series all around, from Pebble to Wolf Creek to Bethpage!

[@nickbritton7678]

Absolutely brilliant - thank you for sharing this. Both of you played great on great courses.

[@tylerlove2052]

Enjoyed that whole trip boys! Shame the wind affected your A+ games at Bethpage! Lots of good memories for you boys for sure!

[@wayneharris4641]

Such an enjoyable set of vlogs, loved every moment of it. Thanks for the insight into such an epic course.

[@mikemckeown9205]

This course just looks so damned HARD, particularly with that wind...eesh

[@michaeljbrennan3728]

I have friends who live near by and play it at least five times a year. They say it’s as hard as it looks. Never gets easier. But gets more fun every time they play it. The nickname for Bethpage fits. 'The People’s Country Club'.

[@SolomonLi]

Wow... crazy wind, walking with the bags, no caddies...grind out golf at it’s best!!! Great stuff bruhs!!!

[@robbiles]

What a tough track, particularly in the wind. What I did learn from this is that the definition of oscillating is wobbling.

[@michaeljbrennan3728]

Great video. Looks like you guys were having more fun than the law allows. Outstanding.

[@matthewcroad7218]

Flippin brilliant. Unlucky Mr Parfield and well done Dannyboy

[@chrismitchell5496]

well done boys.. enjoyed the ride along with ya!

[@barrysmith7291]

Really enjoy watching you two battle this course ,well done boys tough course...👍😯

[@nickbritton7678]

Brilliant 17th wow! Love to the hybrids,

[@andrewjgordon1372]

Gŕeat series of vlogs Mark what a tour, loved all of them from all the courses just amazing, thank you guys.👍

[@Brandon_Balentine]

On hole 16 when you were trying to gauge the wind, I thought to myself, you could probably throw a golf ball up in the air and watch which way it moves. Crazy wind!

[@nickbritton7678]

Brilliant 16th hole Mark, out of the chunky lie with a 6 iron, then hit the flag with the putt. You both played that so well!,

[@duncand1964]

“Do you want to just pull mine?” at 3:25 .... 🤣 classic innocent muppet chitter chatter... it’s been a struggle this trip, but you have had some weather guys!!

[@peteraloisio3533]

Wow. Just Wow. Great series. Mark, I can't recall you playing like the rest of us. Is that the new swing routine not bedded down yet? Imagine coach with the wind on this course? Now that would have been some funny golf.

[@briandevitt6903]

Lovely series of Videos Bruh. Shows how difficult a real Championship course can be especially in difficult conditions.

[@corylink3195]

That was great, Thank you very much!

[@martinhadleigh5890]

Obviously a testing Course; with those windy conditions you both played it very well I’d say....well done 👍🌬💨🌬💨🏌🏻‍♂️🏌🏻‍♂️⛳️

[@SuperJacknyc]

5:16...Dan: "If your putt didn't hit the flag... it would've gone a long way past, I think" Mark, a bit irritable: "Would it???"

[@jamesl5352]

Please take the tour to Las Colinas again, we need our sunshine!!!

[@boydgrandy5769]

Welcome to New York in the spring. Real spring starts in June, though there were baby leaves showing in the trees. The rough grass is made of steel wire, and the greens are hard as pool table tops. Beth Page Black is brutal, ain't it lads.

[@msalzberg4962]

Will you post a round-up of your trip? I'd like to know what you think of the courses. Also, why didn't you play for strokes, rather than match play? To travel all the way to Pebble or Bethpage, and not putt out on every hole seems a shame. Lastly, they sell yardage books in the Bethpage pro shop. You could have saved a few shots with a map. More than once I was cringing watching you make good shots to bad places on the Black. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the Black. It's always a treat - thrill -aggravation - workout - humbling - course to play.

[@gee2478]

i couldn't agree more. On a trip like that playing courses like that I'd want to finish every hole. ( Then deliberately lose the scorecard)

[@arjanpetersen]

Cool! Enjoying the series so far:) thnx for making them

[@jimj.5099]

Love Dan's drawy game, remind me of me only 50 yards further.

[@AlexNblue]

Wow I e said it a few times but that course is a beast! Sooo punishing just off the fairway & how do you access those greens? Not fir the faint hearted - good efforts lads!

[@Struieboy]

Imagine playing it off the championship tees. Great video.

[@louiquelcutti4476]

Always wondered, what is a rinky? Always assumed it was a hybrid but seems to be a specific type of shot with it?

[@paulmangat9884]

Both. The answer is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/an29e3aOn9GDpcU

[@Brian-kg3dp]

I love this course. Very difficult!

[@keithkatz1350]

Wow I’m exhausted from watching you two🙀must be martini time somewhere 🍸great job Mark and Dan. Can’t you lads stay and do a journey with some of us😻Cheers from NorCal

[@pmac5312]

Absolutely fantastic... great video of the course with you and Dan. Hope you weren't too hard on him during the flight home :-)

[@dennismast3591]

Just binge-watched these Bethpage Black vids. Sooo much wind. Do you think, being so close to tournament time, that you got a true taste of tournament conditions? Would love to see a rematch under less windy conditions, so you two could have more control in shaping your shots. Still, enjoyed the series.

[@ianhenderson713]

Awww.....I'm in close...lol Well played dan.....hope your on future far away tours well done you 2

[@craigshelton119]

Great series of videos guys 👍

[@gee2478]

THAT LOOKED TOUGH!! ( Great Vlog as always)

[@hoteltango1]

Mark, are you still using Ryan Little's music in your videos or is this someone else?

[@eastbournegirlsfc3962]

There's not been many laughs !!! It's looked like hard work all the way round . Golf definitely won on that day

[@jameslovering9158]

Someone was struggling and set the tone !

[@malovens152]

good fun boys, well done

[@zeusmorand1028]

Good work gents!

[@hiphop99ful]

Great skills on looks like a real hard days play

[@myopenmind527]

Just goes to show that Brooks Koepka plays a different game only distantly related to mortal golf.

[@peterarmstrong3298]

Can't believe you didn't watch the PGA Mark after playing the course!

[@chrisdegeorge3803]

Peter Armstrong case of sour grapes...

[@elementsboo]

When was this actually filmed? You said it was the last day to be able to play before PGA shut it down for the Championship?

[@Cornwall1888]

Mitch Vale 27th of April according to insta

[@mediaeaglemarketing7497]

CARRYING CLUBS AND CAMERA TRIPOD IN THAT WIND MUST BE FUN

[@wallstreetoneil]

'that was a snap hook 56' I can honestly say, I've never heard that before - Koepka was very lucky the tournament wasn't 2 holes longer - well done boys

[@sebastiano4041]

Nice playing, chaps!

[@marksheehangolfcourses4722]

Has Dan no legs on his bag?! that would drive me bananas !

[@agustinfeliciano9715]

good one guys!!!

[@benswanton2958]

That looked like a bruising round ...!

[@seanboland3560]

What did they shoot over par

[@oldgold5848]

A few.....

[@upgrayedd9732]

I had Dan +4 after 5 then he steadied the ship somewhat. Mark had so many dashes it's hard to guess what he shot. If I had to guess, Dan would've been around 80 and Mark a bit worse.

[@johntwemlow6089]

Very tough and I don't think you were playing off the pga champ tees either, correct?

[@marknewkirk4322]

They said the pga tees were off limits - they didn't know Rory wasn't coming.

[@shrimpflea]

Not even close...some of those were the forward tees.

[@umpdaddy1]

Beast of a course without the wind. In that wind I would shoot 120 easy.

[@spcyman7209]

Now you’re just showing off!

[@chrisshotton9839]

Watched Pebble and this one back to back and must say very surprised at Mark's attitude, you would tell your kids off for sulking like that. Man up Mark and don't spit the dummy out as much...

[@carlsmith5318]

Always think it's a waste of 17 holes when all square going down the last.

[@spcyman7209]

That “semi-rough” looks more like the 8th cut! 😳 #snagcity

[@lesblair1775]

Welcome to NY...

[@larsstehr597]

Just a reminder that fellow dane Lucas Bjerregaard made an easy 1 at no. 17 at the PGA.

[@robertboyce697]

Putt for the win on the last. Concedes match to Dan 10 seconds later.... #BethpageBlack #Exhaustion

[@brewssssss_]

That’s the most I’ve ever heard mark yell at his ball

[@tanneremet7212]

Well well well if it isn't the gimme boys at it again 😂😂 i would love to see these 2 putt out everything for a full round and see their scorecards skyrocket 🔥 (Edit): Also Mark is the definition of of Mr Excuses it's hilarious I love it😂

[@tanneremet7212]

@Jeremy Davidson Nope just stating facts

[@pauljones5853]

That looked no fun at all with that wind. Bethpage Black still not on my bucket list

[@oldgold5848]

Brutal brutal course. Dread to think what a handicap player would get around there. Different game, and tbh not one I really like....

[@bagballgolf2406]

Youre watching handicap golfers mate😂

[@oldgold5848]

@@bagballgolf2406 harsh Nicholas, harsh.

[@msalzberg4962]

I can tell you from personal experience that a 14 handicapper struggles to break 100. The Black penalizes you for *any* mistake.

[@richardwigley]

I think I would get though 2 dozen balls and make 200 on that course.... jeeez

[@walleyewannabe]

I know the course is hard but as far as picturesque like Wolf Creek, Pebble and the numerous vlogs you've done,this falls way short... seems a bit boring

[@msalzberg4962]

You really can't get the full visual effect on video. Standing on the third green, looking at the fourth hole, is one of the most beautiful golf holes I've ever seen. Two dimensional video doesn't really show off the elevation changes, nor the scale of the bunkers. It really is a beautiful course. Of course, the fact that I only have to pay $42 to play it helps ;)

[@pbthirteen]

Playing from the whites here only shows half the course lol
