Misled by the GPS! It's happened to us ALL!

We had two jobs come in on this day.
The first was the Chevy Suburban at Sand Hollow that just needed a little help back to the pavement.
The second was a Dodge pickup that had been misled by the GPS. It lead them through an abandoned golf course!
We were able to get both of these stranded motorists back on their way without too much trouble this time.

Was out at the beach with my son on our side by side yesterday. Found and f250 stuck in the sand deep. We dug him out, and I used your "double jeep" towing. A Jeep Wrangler showed up but couldn't get him out, so I hooked my Side by side up to his Jeep and we pulled together and got him out. The knowledge from your channel helped me help someone else. Thanks Matt! Keep up the videos. Come visit coos Bay sometime

I feel like the education portion of these videos have made a difference in how people get pulled out of sand after two years of .... three years of these videos. How time flies.

I was a telecom tech for a phone company and serviced many cell phone towers in remote locations. Having had off road experience, many times I would just hike the last so many feet to the towers just to avoid situations like that.

Very cool. Can't believe there's an abandoned Golf Course out there. You and your crew are good guys Matt. I think you have inadvertently painted a very humble picture of all you guys. Pentel on one of the videos when you ask your son what are you do. Referring to something totally different. And he replies be a good person. That's gold right there.

Stumbled upon your channel and the past day. I’ve watched your first 40 videos, off to a good start doing pretty good from a phone and not being very tech savvy. Enjoy watching your recovery videos. Keep it up! Looking forward to watching all your videos.

That entire golf course looks like a sand trap! 😂

[@kenc2257]

That Ram 1500 on the cart path--I've also driven a 'regular' vehicle on a golf cart path. But, I was in the UK, and in limited visibility because of the fog. Unlike Will & Zack, I was able to get turned around once I realized that, even for the UK, this 'roadway' was just too narrow... [because of the fog, the golf course wasn't visible]

Alright Matt! Great to see you fixed the problem with your videos👍🏻 Keep them coming.

[@tomoakhill8825]

On the way to the second recovery, tall butte in the distance is Smithsonian Butte, and to its left in the farther background is Eagle Crags. The golf course is the Kokopelli Golf Club at 4785 Demille Turf Rd, Apple Valley, UT 84737-3830 ( 37.104,-113.201 GoogleMaps coords). It closed in 2013, sixteen years before this recovery. The golfcart pavement still shows clearly in the GoogleMaps satellite images.

[@gerrymoeller]

New to the channel, absolutely love the real towing vids. That jeep is definitely a beast. As far as the GPS and the towers, I know all about that. Did work for American Towers for years. This is actually a common occurrence. It's even worse when the site directions are just as bad as the GPS. Did many corrections myself. Keep up the good work and we'll keep watching them..

[@pitbullgator]

Good morning Matt Like you said in your last video about the iCloud I had the same issue but for 99 cents a month I got unlimited storage. Keep up the great videos brother because Love the scenery reminds me of the 25 years I lived in Grand Junction Colorado but when my last Daughter graduated from school I moved back to my home state of Florida and now just visit hehehehe but don’t miss the long winters but still drive in it since I’m a over the road truck driver. Take care brother and be safe 🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@puchski1]

Act II is at the abandoned Kokopelli Golf Club. It was a 18-hole golf course located in Apple Valley, near Hurricane. The course first opened for play in 2009. BYU legend Bruce Summerhays designed the course. At 7,600 yards it was the longest, and most challenging, course in Utah according to the Utah Golf Association. The course closed in 2012 after only 3 years and although I live 30 minutes away, I never played it. The course opened in 2009 with much acclaim for its beauty. The timing was terrible however, as the area was in a recession. Hundreds of houses went back to the bank in neighboring St. George. The few golfers who played the course praised it, but their numbers were too few and the recession killed any prospects of any real estate development adjacent to the course. It is amazing to see the desert totally reclaim the greens, as evidenced in Matt's video and on Google's satellite views. Sad.

[@lockedin60]

You had me going there for a second. Your title suggested an old golf course but then you then mentioned Sand Hollow. I thought that was a play on words-Sand Trap. Funny on me. You actually went to an abandon golf course That would have been a wicked place to ride a golf cart! How did you ever find a golf ball if you hit it out-of-bounds. It reminds me of an golf course in Summerville NC. Summerville is a community in Guilford Co about a 30 minutes drive from Greensboro NC the city I grew up in. It was an old farm pasture that someone decided that it would work as a golf course. It was okay if you stayed in the fairways but trying to find a ball in the out-of-bounds area was a 15-20 minute throw up your arms moment!

[@132danyoll]

So humble

[@FlatFifties]

Par for the course. Regarding the stuck pick up whose four wheel drive was not working, the same thing happened to me. In a 2015 Nissan Xterra. The first time I ever really needed four wheel drive in the Xterra was when I pulled down onto a gravel bar on the Current river in Missouri to load my kayak on a trailer. The wheels started to spin, so I turned the switch to four wheel drive. It would not engage. Turned out to be a wheel sensor connected to the stability control. If anything had a poor connection the computer would not engage the transfer case. I thought that was bullshit so I soon traded the POS for a Toyota 4Runner.

[@karenmarieh.j.3842]

I have seen this same thing happen in other videos on this channel. I think that it might be a natural reflex. The driver is in her or his own car which they are used to stepping on the gas and then turning the steering wheel the way they want steer it. When Matt starts pulling to the left or right the drivers first instinct are to try to keep the vehicle going straight which means they are turning the steering wheel against the pull.

[@rogerdunn5491]

I have heard in some situations Matt`s instructions to drivers to put car in neutral and leave it there, it is his dicision depending on what he is planning on doing. Since this video didn`t have his instructions to the driver (which he always gives) edited in, you are making perhaps an errorneous assumtion, that the driver is at fault.

Great videos, if you are looking for a dedicated camera for filming, the DJI pocket would be a good little camera. You would probably want to ad a shotgun mic to help with audio. As far as a wireless mic that you could clip on yourself the rode wireless go mics are a good option. Being around national parks I’m not sure how much you could use a drone, but the DJI mavic air is the best value for money, or for over all distance and performance the DJI mavic 2.
