Our biggest MISTAKES & best advice after 6-months of Golf YouTube | time, tech, money, etc

[@CGgolfs]

Hey Friends! 👋🏻 Let us know if you have any particular topics you'd want us to cover on the podcast 😁

[@LinksGolfer67]

will be listening to hopefully hear some of your course recomendations as you both seem to play some fab places

[@CGgolfs]

We have plenty of recommendations! Especially hidden gems in Scotland! Thank you for listening and we’re both really excited for this new style of video!

[@ScottishGolfer01-l9r]

Would be great to hear about some of the courses in the North of Scotland. I love playing up there and am interested in how you have found them as I watched some of your earlier videos up there.

[@briandalgleish9768]

Genuinely like the way you guys stay true to yourself, no BS or anything, the humour and occasional slight miscue makes your stuff , in my mind, a must watch, whether it 1 or 2 videos a week or a fortnight, please don't burn yourselves out , keeping be you, you will not go far wrong, good luck with the videos and the podcasts 🙏

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you Brian! Really appreciate the comment! Glad you are enjoying our content. We will keep making miscues I’m sure to keep it entertaining 😆

[@jimmacgregor4122]

Interesting stuff - and you've every right to be proud of your videos - I've never failed to watch every one to the end - because they're very good. Keep it up.

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you Jim! Glad you have enjoyed and hope you enjoyed the podcast episode. It’s something different for us but hopefully interesting in some capacity

[@JoeS-NC-USA]

Enjoyed the video. It was great learning about your journey on KZbin and the amount of hard work it takes to make content. Wish you continued success!

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you for the comment! Glad you enjoyed 😁

[@ToddSchaul-w9z]

Enjoyed this very much. Each video has made me smile at some point as your personalities and your chemistry is what differentiates you from others. Yes, your videos have gotten better since the first but I kept watching because of your chemistry together whilst being on a journey to get better as golfers and show us courses may never think about much. I am trying to get better too. Your quest to +4 is something that is quite interesting for aspiring golfers. The best compliment I can give you is that your channel for me, has become just as entertaining, informative, and worthwhile as the Playa himself, the Baus, yes, Matty Boom Boom- The Golf Sidekick! Your efforts are really appreciated. Cheers!

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you so much for the comment! Really appreciate your feedback! We’re just trying to make the videos as good as possible and really appreciate the compliment! We have so much exciting stuff planned soon!!

[@MovesLikeJaguar]

You guys are great to watch, so keep doing what you do. I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to videos, and know the struggles you can face, having create a few videos myself (although not at the level you are at!) Trying new ideas and not always succeeding is a challenge. I'm sure your channel will grow quickly with the quality content you produce. Buying you both a pint next time I visit St Andrews!

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you very much for the comment! Let us know when you’re in town and we’ll come for a beer 🍺

[@ScottishGolfer01-l9r]

Great first episode! Really interesting hearing about your initial journey as I did not realise so much went into it. Keep going with it and I'm sure things will pay off. Well done on working so hard at it and excited to keep watching (or listening) along.

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you! Look forward to continuing to create great videos 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@simonbullows5683]

Brilliant & honest videos you can't beat them. Congratz on you're first 6months I hope for more to come from you both. I'd love to see maybe a live Q&A podcast from you both, answering questions on the fly.

[@CGgolfs]

Live will be tough but we can certainly try at some point! What questions do you have and we can definitely try and answer them in our next one

[@simonbullows5683]

@CGgolfs What's the ultimate course you'd both / either want to play? Have either of you thought of becoming professional? Do you or would you play in a ProAm? Who would be the golfer you'd most want a round with? Have you ever thought of giving YT lessons?

[@uctpclh]

An origin story would be good at some point. I think one feature which is useful on podcasts is providing a listing of the topics discussed at different points in the podcast. Either in the description, or when you scroll along the toggle bar.

[@CGgolfs]

Great ideas! Honestly I completely agree - trying to work out how to do that on the scroll bar😆 if I don’t work it out it’ll go in the description from now on!

[@Davidsalmond]

Keep up the good work guys

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you! Appreciate your comment!

[@georgina201]

the glue on my leggings 🤣 this is why we need audio only podcasts hahahha

[@CGgolfs]

Haha don’t worry we got loads of audio pods coming up!

[@eythorodds14]

It's great to see this starting as a podcast on Spotify, I can listen to them while doing something else, so I have a lot more time for those than KZbin in general. But this interests me. My mind is stupid sometimes. I have never wanted to become a big content creator, just want to be a little active on social media for my people and my followers, keeping them updated on how my goals or even life is going. Getting "big" outside my circle doesn't really interest me even though I allow anyone to follow me if they are interested. If I would get big (which I doubt), then fine, if it doesn't, I am not doing it for them anyway. And at the same time, I worry about the reactions or that my content will be boring or something 😂 Sometimes I tell my mind "Now, make up your mind, you idiot! Don't worry about other people at the same time you are not interested in everyone liking your content, as it would be overwhelming!" It's interesting to hear you got negative comments in person. Would be interesting to hear how you dealt with it. You both seem so lovely, positive and polite all the time and I can't even imagine what that negative comment would even look like! How on earth is anyone negative enough to find anything negative about you? Just wondering because I literally can't see it 😆 Well, as a podcast idea, it would be interesting to hear something non-golf related sometime. I don't really know about what then, just getting to know you better as a person, not just as golf enthusiasts. Golf can be some part of it, like, when did you start golf, how did you become better than 0HCP, how long time did it take, about the journey over a longer period than your social-media period, etc. I apologize for always writing such a long messages. I sometimes look like I talk a lot but I am quiet-er in person than I appear from my messages 😂

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you so much for the comment! We can definitely do a podcast about us and different stories about our lives Golf and non-golf related. Thank you so much for the support! It really means a lot

[@robertcoleman6153]

Would love to hear your thoughts on WHS, pace of play, membership v pay & play, Scottish Golf, ladies golf in Scotland, green fees

[@CGgolfs]

Thank you for the ideas! We will definitely add these to the list to discuss!

[@grannygrumpy1365]

Hi Guy’s. Can we please have a chat about how the St Andrews Trust runs the golf courses in the town and booking rules to get a tee time . Thank you. Loving your vlogs keep up the good work!

[@CGgolfs]

Absolutely. Will add this to our list and we will discuss!

[@eythorodds14]

One extra question. I hear you guys very well but I never notice the mic with you. What kind of mic are you using to get such a clear sound despite being away from the mic of the camera itself?

[@CGgolfs]

We use the DJI mini Mics. They are excellent (once we got over the initial hurdle and learned how to use them properly)

[@ajmobeel]

How about a chat on having no caddies allowed on greens so pros need to read them themselves with a time limit. A steward can hold flag?

[@CGgolfs]

Certainly something we can discuss. Have to say I have enjoyed seeing TGL without caddies and with the shot clock

[@iangourlay1918]

Will you have guests on the podcast that relate to golf

[@CGgolfs]

Yes that's the plan! Big mixture of different topics and guests when we can get hold of them!😃
