I've Never Played a Hole Like THIS | Chasing The Red | West Cliffs, Portugal

[@Diabolical_Prankster]

I continue to try to get a vacation for my non-golfing wife to Portugal so that I can enjoy these courses and I've been showing her your videos as a "look how stunning this is, drive the kart for me!" to convince her we should take the trip.

[@parlans5593]

Hi and I now felt that I could reflect on your comment,…. Speaking of wifes that do not play golf, me too as you just desribed my wife do not play golf., so I might join you 😉🙏,…. Also to you Iona,… I enjoy your latest vlogg and Please and or I Hope to soon see more of you and your golftraveling,…. ⛳️✅👍🙏😀

[@davidrichards8021]

Recently went to Portugal with my wife and two sons. We managed one round with all four of us and three with just me and my sons. If it had just been my wife and myself it would have been a grand total of none. Having said that the two of us did play Maspolomas in Gran Canaria.

[@dannybrant6758]

There’s lovely villas here. I played last year and the wife and kids enjoyed the villa. If you like hotels the Marriot pria Del Rey is nice.

[@ItsOvAnakinIHaveTheHighGround]

No disrespect to your wife but leave her at home and go by yourself or with the boys 😂

[@cecilslagle2637]

I have to say that with all the many people in the KZbin community, you are by far my favorite. Love your content and peaceful approach to the game .

[@Skeeta56]

Tea in hand as I begin another chat with my Scottish friend. Lovely track with an even more pleasing soul. You make every course better. Thank you for sharing your day with us in North Carolina! You make every course better! I hope you get to play a few rounds next week when you come over to cover The Masters . . . My dream 4-some to watch on KZbin: Iona, Peter, Rick and Grant . . . All brilliant folks that love life and share a passion for this magical game called “Golf”. A lad (68 yrs old) can dream can’t he?!!!

[@M111OVD]

I love the way you talk through the shot aloud before hitting it... I do the same thing...my golf balls must be hard of hearing - yours listen to you.

[@timcolemere4511]

Played there 2 weeks ago, never played a course like it! Immaculate and amazing views

[@brianclarke7169]

I do like the interviews, Sam T was the best for me. The chat and planning on your own is excellent. Super to watch.

[@tdave12]

I follow quite a few golfers on KZbin but Iona is one that I would love to play a round with. Seems like you would be a great friend. Very calm approach to the game. Love your energy.

[@johntatum1951]

Love to follow and listen to Iona...she will help your game as she copes with different situations on the course. Cynthia Dye is a very talented member of the Dye family...great course she created! Great golf, Ms. Stephen...enjoyed watching!

[@kevingowdy3651]

'What a crackerjack'! I haven't heard that expression since my childhood days in Scotland. Love it...and your approach to every course you play.👏👏

[@gerrykelly2440]

There's something really special about a natural rugged coastal golf course, nothing beats it.

[@anthonyfarmer8387]

What a golfer you are Iona. You made Westcliffs look easy and it’s not! Another great video.

[@andrewjohnston5942]

That look on your face when you saw that par 3 from the tee, priceless, and a great birdie to boot.

[@kennyanderson4587]

Cracking course well played 😏👊🏌️👉

[@markabent]

you have such a lovely swing and hit so many fairways you make golf look very easy and straightforward, something it does not look like when I play. great watch thanks

[@karlportsmouth5571]

Great series, you're playing very well atm. Enjoy your Masters week.

[@johntreen6453]

What a joy to watch..love your calmness

Another brilliant vlog Iona ⛳

[@terrystickland]

Great round Iona. You are really in control, loved it 👏👏👏💙

[@stuartbutler6854]

Course looked absolutely spectacular Iona,that birdie on 16th was something else,you make it look effortless at times and glad you’ve chose the finesse route,makes me want to work harder on technique,please keep up the great work 🙌🙌🙌

[@JohnNelson-i5l]

I always tear up with a smile when you do the birdie flight.

[@krisjames999]

My favourite course! Played it a few times and back there in September. Very special

[@high_alpine_golfer]

Another nice video 😍👍

[@martinwilliams152]

Another great video, and level par on a course you have never played is truly well done. Love your enthusiasm and excitement when you get a birdie 🎉😊😊

[@steveparrett3832]

Great course, golf, commentary, camerawork and editing. Love this channel.

[@robertbarry328]

[@Lenny-8]

Good to see the "birdie dance" 😃

[@Ruth-ti6si]

Another great video - love your commentary/insights. It would be great to hear how your journey to try to qualify for the open is going.

[@jamesblakeley-iz9hh]

Iona you just ooze absolute class and I love your channel. You have such a warmth and quality and I look forward to your video releases ❤

[@albertofernandez-sanguino3373]

Love the turkey trot / birdie dance 😂😂

[@MontyStreet]

Tubes and Jimmy would be proud

[@19DMS51]

Another fun watch and a beautiful golf course. Thank you for taking us to this venue. Great birdie in the 2nd par 3. Gorgeous drive and a sweet putt. WTG Iona!

[@mikebravo842]

I had a lot of pressure put on me as a kid playing golf competitively, so much I walked away from the game for 22 years, After seeing Iona and Rick play at Crail, I picked up some clubs and fell in love with the game again. . I hope Iona and Emily keep up the good work, this is what real golf is all about. 👍

[@johnwallace520]

What a great way to spend my coffee break: with Iona on a beautiful golf course.

[@labrador3231]

I’ve played West cliffs a few times over the last couple of years, it’s a very fair course with some challenging holes for players of similar ability to myself, handicap 19. Great views and some good driving holes, I recommend playing it if you are in the vicinity😊.

[@chadharman1865]

Awesome content, amazing course, Iona’s commentary is so infectious, much love from London 😉

[@paulinelock592]

What a great Hole 16! Thanks Iona.

[@ChrisEvans-l2m]

Beautifully played Iona. Amazing consistency with drives and green approaches. A pleasure to watch for us all 😎⛳️

[@TDFlyer71]

Another cracking vid

[@hungry_arch]

Up and down from 190, over a chasm! What a TWO! And that approach on 18?!? Holy intimidation.

[@ianmills35]

Brilliant just brilliant 👍🏌️‍♂️

[@grahamdavies9735]

Apart from the glorious golf course and your silky smooth swing, I really love your mindset.Great vlog as usual Iona.

[@66stangRh]

Every time I watch you golf, or talk to friends about your videos, I think "Iona is such a beautiful golfer". So lovely. 😊

[@JiKimbo]

What a par three, and what a birdie! 👏👏👏

[@AlexJackson-z6j]

I continue to get impressed by the courses you are playing Iona . Love the series

[@seancook2264]

I’ve played here a couple of times. Love it great landscape and being by the sea. Can be a real challenge when the wind gets up and a beast from the Tips!

[@timquinlan8130]

Beautiful course and area. Even the gorse has a nice wild flower look to it. Nice birdie on sixteen and thanks for introducing us to golf in Portugal. Looking forward to the next one.

[@Sairfinger]

Splendid round Iona. You looked so nice in your spring attire.

[@iancharlespilch]

I hope that you enjoy sharing paradise with us as much as we enjoy having it shared. You make the best content. I intend to play this course in my dreams tonight.

Level at West Cliffs. Nice 👍

[@iancox8619]

Tough course I also played los obidos aswell as playa del ray . West cliffs definitely the toughest.

Great looking course….. one to add to my bucket list. Thanks for another great video ⛳

[@alanking5001]

That course looks so good 👍 Some great camera work .

[@jamesdrakett1775]

Well played Iona. Stunning course. You played that tricky par 3 so well. Great comments on flair, touch and imagination around the green. Getting up and down makes a great player. 👍👌

[@clivelodge5858]

Fantastic to see such a natural looking modern course. I couldn't hit that 16th with a driver from that tee!

[@toddharris9343]

It’s so enjoyable watching you have so much fun playing.

[@tonywilliams3896]

Looks a fab course, and I’m loving your series, Iona. I’m going to Portugal next week but not the Silver Coast, need to organise another trip!

[@audreymurray4375]

❤ the birdies and the dance. Great course you love golf. Thank you I had a nice cup of tea while you played

[@stevepreston7454]

The little snippets of information you come out with are great, especially for those watching who are new to the sport. Wind hurting / wind helping for instance.

[@hansvanpelt245]

Stand out content Iona, love the birdie joy and the analysis along the way. Fun watch!

[@markpalmer5757]

Stunning course with great views,well played.

[@MICHAELBURKE-u1d]

Another wonderful watch thank you Iona

[@thepunkmonger9234]

So close, that 18th looks very tough. Thanks again Iona, always look forward to your videos and insight 👍

[@bennyyau7923]

Another great video at such a picturesque course. I love how calmly you approach the intimidating tee shots and your swing is so smooth. I also love the fact you mentioned not chasing distance and focusing on tempo and finesse which is where I'm at in my golfing journey! Slow is smooth and smooth is fast!

[@davidsimpson4145]

Wow, what a course! You are a baller Iona. Such a great player! Love the videos.

[@electronicpen]

Another cracking video!!! Thanks for sharing, in such an enjoyable way, this golfing gem with us.

[@k9coaches]

@ontheroadwithiona I must say, I appreciate this run of videos. I've been in Portugal for a couple months and after seeing the Praia D'El Rei video, I went and played it. Then I saw the Dunas video and booked it. I may try to squeeze in West Cliffs now before I head to a new country. Keep up the great course reviews!!

[@Chris-lh6hw]

Lovely birdie 🐦 on the 15th and 🐦 dance 😂

[@timdanks2186]

Beautiful course. And I love a good hole map, and those ones are superb.

[@philturner1588]

Loving all your videos Iona. The courses you have played in Portugal are truly beautiful, would love to see you come out to Oz and do some videos on our fantastic courses.

[@hatchett122]

This is by some way one of the toughest courses I have ever played. Well done for making it look so manageable!

[@juiceqc7716]

Great course. Beautiful setting. Visually intimidating. Trust your game. Beware the third. Never lost there. Love it. My only criticism would be the landing area at 17?

[@GregDavidson-bg1mg]

What a gorgeous venue! Great score regardless for first time seeing it!!!

[@paulsheehan7313]

A new course to the grow list … you are such a great ambassador for golf and all that is neat about the game 🥳🤩🥳

Way to hit the the hole on the par 3, because that was going 15 feet past if you'd missed. Fantastic putt though and another great course and video. Love it!

Striking it well Iona course looked a interesting test

[@dhirst82]

Love the Birdie Dance, Up the golf life ! ace video as always. just wish it would stop raining here so the course would open..

[@Chris-lh6hw]

I'm really enjoying these videos. I think because you are incredibly articulate and an amazing golfer it all just flows really well (of course Emilys work on Camera, although disappointed you're not using her as a measuring instrument on the greens like before 🤣).

[@matthewboyne4227]

I love this channel, you have great skills and go the extra mile to make sure things are done perfectly. I have a 4wd tfsi mk2 golf and this engine swap would be high up on my list... ❤

Off to Portugal next week and we have rounds booked at both West Cliffs and Praia Del Ray - hope I play half as good as you did! Great videos and well played.

Won’t be disappointed…2 stunning courses. Did 2 rounds at Praia and 1 at West Cliffs last April. Loved West Cliffs so much switching to 2 rounds there and 1 at Praia this April

Thank you for another lovely episode of chasing the red ❤❤❤❤❤❤. Great birdies! And Great round! Will you be doing another what's in the bag soon? I look forward to hearing how you like your 50 deg wedge. I've been playing a 52 and it has served me well around the green. I haven't golfed the past few weeks and am eager to get back out and continue to practice and work on technique! Your channel always keeps me excited to go practice.

[@calvindebeverly7410]

I could play that course with absolutely no problem what so ever. (Me yelling out to the garage: "Hey Johnny you still got that big bag of stolen range ball?" lol

[@phidavy7805]

Played here the year after it was built Iona. I found it very intimidating with the wind. We stayed at Campo Real Golf Resort and had a trip to West Cliffs. Might be worth a look.
