You know what, I have to say it. This playa is the best golfing content creator. No clickbait content, no “I played nine holes with a baseball bat and a mousetrap” videos, no gimmicks or bad golf advice. The course videos and tutorials is just pure, well-produced golf content. Keep up the great work!

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa - the day I make a video hitting golf balls with my shoes, is the day I retire. 2022 will be the rebirth of the Way of the Playa too We will be slashing the worlds handicap by 5 more shots

[@GreenDistantStar]

Well said. So many KZbin golfers spend 80% of their time talking, Matt's content is pure golf with just enough commentary to keep you engaged. This is perhaps the best clip he's done. Great filming and editing, the venue and weather as good as it gets, and Matt showed us the Playa we all know he is. 10/10.

[@vandy8510]

have a feeling that was a shot at good good or something lmao

[@arklowrockz]

@@GolfSidekick Slashing the worlds handicap by 5 and keeping global temp increase to only 1 degree. Me and Greta have your back Matt. Hopes and Dreams!!

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

​@@GreenDistantStarWhat are you on about. He spends 80% of his time smack talking like a baus and/or bigging himself up!

[@curtmcgurt7152]

as a caddie it was awesome to hear you give him props after damn near every shot. Great round great video

[@dave6012]

All good shots and all bad shots are the caddie’s fault.

[@hughten]

I was grinning ear to ear the whole time watching this video. So happy for you. You played damn well for your first time on a course, even better that it was Pebble.

[@zacharymilos392]

Honestly if I didn't hear Matt's voice in the background I'd wager that he just grabbed lefty clubs and played another ball. Whaddatwin whaddaround !

[@mattmarr5817]

As someone who watches every one of your videos, I just wanted to say that I felt proud and happy for you watching this round. Knowing how hungry you were to go low on this special course and see the focus below the surface to meet the moment was just awesome. Watching you dial this in for +2 as first-timer on Pebble was a delight and inspiring. Whaddalife.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa. Wadda memory Wadda jeremy Wadda life. Thanks for watching every video. You are who the videos are for

[@clementwong6213]

Amazing round Matt! Legendary course. Must be one of my favorite videos of yours man. I turned off watching the Players @ TPC Sawgrass to watch you play this magnificent round. Well worth!

[@GolfSidekick]

You have good discerning tastes playa

[@fantasydog3868]

YES !!! AMAZING MATT !!!

[@robroy4663]

All of us who have followed you for the past few years share your excitement at seeing you on this epic track! And what a round, congratulations Matt.

[@leightonkekuewa4066]

Fantastic Golfsidekick! I got to play Pebble once.... for free! And that wasn't even the best part of it, I got to play with my brother and niece. My niece was in college at the time and was working at the PB resort. She was allowed to play PB once every quarter and picked me to play with her that time. Her and my brother played one of the other courses the day before so while my niece and I play Pebble on that day, my brother was just gonna caddie and be our photographer. We show up to the 1st tee and got paired up with another employee. His guest didn't make it and he looks over at my brother and says "do you have your clubs?" It was an extremely kind gesture that I still haven't forgotten 13 years later. I had birdie putts on 3 of the first 5 holes and didn't convert any of them. We got to the 6th tee and I realized it didn't matter.

[@GolfSidekick]

That's a good deal playa! Waddalife

[@jeffreyschreiber8679]

Terrific fun to watch your round Matt. I was fortunate enough to play Pebble 20 years ago (I was coming off a back surgery, so had very low expectations, was just happy - amazed actually - to be there. I got one of the four slots available for singles 24 hours before I played, when I was able to make a reservation even though I wasn’t staying at the resort.) Your take on the caddies is spot on. Essential to the round. What people have no idea about, and what doesn’t come through on video or TV - you tried to explain it - is just how hilly the course is. Also, when you start on 1 you tee off right in front of the pro shop and a million people are watching you while your heart is beating out of your chest as you say to yourself “I can’t believe I’m actually playing Pebble.” It takes two more holes for that to stop, but then you tee off on 4, walk up the hill and there is Stillwater Cove on your right and it just starts up again. And everywhere you go, you are saying in your head: “well here is where Tiger did this, and here is where Jack did that and here is where Tom chipped in” and so on, that it can be hard to keep your focus, even after the heart stops pounding. So your score is really incredible.

[@volticmusic]

I caddie at Congressional CC near washington dc and you'd be surprised how many people who are impartial to caddie advice. Really nice to see all the caddie love and I'm glad it helped you have such a good time and helped you play well! Keep up the great content!

[@volticmusic]

@@CAxALLDAY if you're meaning congressional then yeah, I got to play about a round and a half on the new blue course so far and it's incredible. Hard to complain having a job walking that all the time.

[@pauldummett8675]

Your cinematography makes the course look even more beautiful than it does on TV. Awesome, so jealous

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa. I guess more pov perspective than tv towers

[@TntsTheBest]

Bret knew the assignment and didn’t disappoint! What a caddie!!!! Love your stuff!

[@GolfSidekick]

The man!

[@difquin]

Ever since you announced Pebble, we've been rooting for you making a good score. And here we are. Even after a starting double, you turn the ship and finish in style. What a playa ❤

[@GolfSidekick]

Such a savage double just a pitching wedge and we’re off to a par start. Wadda life

[@Tmoney_KOM]

Wadda playa! Incredible experience, I’m sure. Discovered your channel about a year ago. After years of watching other videos, trying to “refine” my swing, I discovered your channel. Went from 100ish to on the cusp of breaking 90 consistently. Really enjoying playing golf and the course. Your philosophy has had a profound impact on my game. Cheers! Wadda life!

[@paulk.4261]

Awesome score for a first-timer. Yes, a caddie is a must. This course/area is definitely a special place...like heaven on earth vibe.

[@danielcohen3159]

Nice, relaxed, and easy. That's the same approach I need to be taking every round, but especially when playing a really special round. Fun to watch, Matt!

[@GolfSidekick]

The caddie Brett helped a lot. Just such a cool vibe. Clicked nicely with him

[@theoriginalcolinenglish]

With that voice Brett needs a radio job or voice over work. Incredible pipes man.

[@Nial.Ramlose]

You finally got your dream round in Playa! and what a respectable score, congrats on the bucket list ☑

[@Paul-mc9ft]

this dude has the greatest golf content out there

[@GolfSidekick]

You have the greatest comments

[@alexanderperl6945]

Really impressive round! A 73 at Pebble is such an achievement. I hope you get to go back there one day and break par, but there are so many amazing courses to play. Best of luck!

[@GolfSidekick]

Hopefully and then I’ll play the back tees but like you say there are thousands of golf courses

[@leviherman215]

Love your videos man!! Please don’t EVER stop making them.

[@hogan1515]

If you ever get the chance. Play Pinehurst #2. You will love it.

[@goldilockz52]

As a caddie myself its great to see caddies get respect. You guys had a great rapport. He kept you cool the whole time playa.

[@aidangriffiths5075]

what a stunning place, wow

[@spencerhall8966]

Bless daylight savings. Get to watch this an hour early.

[@teevanadagolf]

Thanks to your videos, I am able to play with less pressure. High handicap so far but lowering it slowly thanks to your advice. It will take the time it needs but as you said take one ball at a time

[@GolfSidekick]

Nice chec out the white board break 100 video and whiteboard break 90 videos

[@RadDad5550]

Dood. Here's your Grammy for best soundtrack on DaTube. 🏆 Got me groovin' with this sleepy Saturday sunrise. 🙏

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa I do love the vibes glad you do too

[@NoVaCharlie]

Bret was the man. And Jeremy, kudos to you playa. That was class of you.

[@willpeterson9538]

I have to say it’s impressive how appreciative you were to your caddy!

[@GolfSidekick]

The best caddie I may have ever had

[@virtualbown]

Loved the pacing of this video 18 holes 20 mins, no fluff. Felt like I got a good tour of Pebble. Thx!

[@fantasydog3868]

And You are AMAZING Matt !!! Way to bring it PLAYA !!! Very proud of you !!! A DREAM COME TRUE !!!

[@alisonburgess345]

Wow - fantastic to play a glamour course like this. Really enjoyed that - well done.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa

[@rudigersimpson]

Your insights into poop strategy are truly insightful

[@Bacoxn]

I dig my toes into the sand The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket I lean against the wind, pretend that i am weightless And in this moment i am happy, happy Such a good video, i love your content !

[@GolfSidekick]

That is exactly the part I am referring to. Amazing

[@TD-rp5je]

Love it love it love it Congratulations on a beautiful round at Pebble Beach You are truly an inspiration!

[@GolfSidekick]

You are

[@kirkabryan]

Incredible round filled with a lifetime of memories. Just crisp ball striking. Easy money.

[@GolfSidekick]

I will never forget it...Except hole 12-15 I kind of lose memory of

[@aucklandholidayhomes6233]

finally, see you on pebble beach. WELL DONE

[@GolfSidekick]

Waddacourse

[@markforbis7519]

Great round! You putted well. Love that course and the surroundings - amazing day. Thanks for sharing.

[@michaelblum3973]

I seriously don't know what he does to connect with the viewers so well. But, keep doing what you're doing.

[@corydanielson7369]

Man your scrambling is so good

[@GolfSidekick]

You are !

[@SilentCashCow]

Good ol’ Patrick on the bag!!💚

[@jrkastl]

What I absolutely love is your experience with the new grass types in America. It's the one thing that will raise your game from the typical grasses overseas. It's what makes American golf courses "American." So many grass types, so many experiences. My 76 overseas is an 86 in America :)

[@GOBGOLF]

The dream is still alive!!! Pebble is a goal that remains on my bucket list!!! Great round Matt!!!! GOB!!!!

[@davidjeffrey2515]

Great round Matt

[@Rayceemon]

Such spectacular views - Pebble didn't disappoint, did it. it looked like a wonderful day of golf, and this went by way too fast. The Playa-in-Chief playing an iconic course like this should be a feature film, not a shorty. Also, real nice touch around those speedy greens.

[@GolfSidekick]

Playa that was the most beauitful haiku I have ever read. Thank you

[@ewaz6196]

it doesn't always happen that one round that you play on a course you've never played that is HIGHLY anticipated ends up working out this well....but you had a really good day and it was AWESOME to see. Plus you got some amazing weather. I bet the caddies not only help with course mgmt. and club selection, but they probably know a lot about the history of the course too! Really cool video! I think it's your best yet!

[@GolfSidekick]

Definitely want to walk the course, have a caddie, expect nothing, hit one shot at a time

[@amarug]

It just occurred to me how nicely you release the club, you can really feel the relaxedness in your wrists at impact.

[@GolfSidekick]

Sometimes, but the release it a little early playa

[@tomfowles5871]

Love it man!!! This is truly epic….seeing those fairways through your camera is just the best. Thanks for bringing us on the journey man :-)

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks Playa thanks for coming along

[@unknownKnownunknowns]

Great video. Pebble is beauty and not terribly difficult ( see Spyglass!) , but it is insanely expensive due to the stay requirements. Thankfully my boss paid! The caddies I had were invaluable. I was 2 over after nine in the winter rain then blew up on the back and shot 90 as a 14 index. doh!

[@A.Man..]

Thanks to the sponsor too

[@snoopvic6522]

You make golf look so easy

[@GolfSidekick]

Some days playa. Other days it's a struggle.

[@MadeOfStone89]

fantastic production on this one playa

[@GolfSidekick]

You are fantastic

[@shaneWARs1]

Yo Matt just wanted to say I watch your videos in my truck every Monday before my round your mental tips and watching you play helps me stay in the moment also your shot tracers are way better then most channels lol

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa waddatrucker

[@nishkrishnan]

This makes me so proud

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks dad!

[@jaksatva]

This is the Pinnacle Playa, the true scramblin man in action, wadda round

[@farfromprogolf2065]

This is the pinnacle Playa. It's gonna be tough to top this one. Amazing. Thank you for sharing this round with us Next stop, Old Course...............

[@petemarotta9663]

beautiful video and Jeremy, you are the man for hosting Matt like this

[@chrislock1457]

Wadda caddy. I'm sure playing with a legend like that would make it so much more fun.

[@margoliiv4333]

Just enyoing your videos with a cup of coffee! Great stuff Man! Cant wait for the season to begin here. Greetings from Estonia!

[@GolfSidekick]

Loke that playa I think I will order one to go right now! Hopefully see you in Estonia when the flu fear subsides

[@danekgolf]

Absolutly fantastic golf course and you played very well!! My dream to play there!

[@brandonr7126]

Nice score Matt. You are a god!

[@CaptainDad28]

You’re blessed bro. This is the best weather I’ve seen this course played in on KZbin. Great round

[@JayHurt]

2 over at Pebble?! What an incredible round! Looks like you guys had a great time, too. This is what it's all about!

[@GolfSidekick]

It's the best

[@drroger98]

That was an awesome round. I concur that a great caddy makes a bucket list place round so much better.

[@bbselects2617]

You made it, Playa!! So happy for you and this channel. Next stop, the Old Course!

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa, one day for the old course. I can now go there visa free

[@phileoness]

Practicing what you preach resulted with an awesome round! Congratulations! Waddaround playa.

[@Zackrey507mx]

I was on the toilet when I started this video, it was like I had live time commentary 👌🏼

[@jmu4508]

Yup, at 1:42 that's the kind of nasty rough we regular Joe's in the States encounter. For me that's where a 60 degree comes in handy, and that kind of rough and bunkers are the only times I use 60, as you know, are quite the fickle mistress. One of your best videos, glad you got to experience PB.

[@dwculler]

Matt you are one of the best at being sneaky funny. Great golf and humor playa.

[@nopressuregolf]

This is the video I have been waiting for since following you after your first video. This was the smoothest golf you have played! You hit the srixons so well!

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks legend

[@kevin1873]

That is so awesome to finally see you make it to Pebble Beach. I live just an hour North of Bakersfieldso it's quite a treat to get to see you play in the nearby area. Hope you enjoyed it.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa waddatreat

[@aabello1]

Been eagerly waiting for this round. Loved seeing Matt play with so much confidence. Waddaplaya!!

[@GolfSidekick]

15 rounds in the prior few weeks definitely helped!

What an awesome round, you had a great caddy

[@de0ne0]

Wow.. amazing experience you have there..

Just started watching this one. Pebble beach you lucky........playa!

[@GolfSidekick]

Very lucky, Jeremy was the man

[@adeol7]

Well done budd - you've genuinely inspired me to play more and more golf. Proud of how you did here - what a dream come true to play at pebble!

[@GolfSidekick]

Nice, you will do well to remember your joy and why you're playing

[@iankoch956]

have played this so often in golf games on PC/Xbox but never seen the actul holes/course, so thanks heaps for this vlog, cheers

[@danmyers9372]

I got to play Pebble once back in the early ‘80’s with some buds. I can’t believe how much shorter the course plays today with modern clubs and balls. You were hitting an average of 3 clubs less on approaches than we played back then. I was also surprised at how much shorter the rough was cut. Well played!

[@rybry5080]

Waddamemory!!!! all filmed beautifully to watch when you like!!

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa

[@rpdrpd4153]

That’s awesome! Glad you got too play there. Looks so nice.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa the best

[@GP-yc2it]

Matt, it makes me happy that you've gotten to do so much here in the States. You have been here for TPC this week. They went from nearly 80 (27C) degrees to 50 (10C) degrees with a 30mph (48kph) wind to today when it was 33 (1C) when I woke up. Whadda test!

[@GP-yc2it]

Noticed you were hitting a lot of hooks/pulls... your lower half was spinning out. 👍🏼

[@paulfmurphy617]

Great round there brother. You deserve all he best experiences the golf life provides. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks playa

[@kensheehan4694]

That was a very enjoyable watch, thank you. Great round, too. It's always been my dream course so hopefully some day.

[@jamesthrower3865]

Incredible round baus Matt. 73 on your first round at Pebble Beach and the tuba was not to be heard. Very well done sir!!!

[@chadhutchinson279]

Your best video ever. You got a great day at Pebble. Beautiful !!

[@GolfSidekick]

The best

[@lgeiger]

You made this course looks easy!

[@starks1974]

That’s one of the best videos ever Playa!!! So happy for you and that was a score any playa would take.

[@BakoSooner]

Great scrambling score. I also bogyed the first hole when I played there (landed on green above the flag and putted past the hole for a nice three putt). That first hole green was very tricky for me. But the course is a once in a life time memory. Another great video.

[@tonymontana7097]

The moment you drive into the entrance of Pebble Beach GC you can feel the mystique. It is a superb track, one of the best in California for a public course. Treacherous 2nd cut rough. Wrist breakers but very rewarding if you stay on the fairways. The greens are tricky. Gotta bring your A game. Even the best of the best struggle there.

[@GolfSidekick]

Superb place. Even nice is the drive around the surrounding neighborhood

[@danipsen556]

Waddacourse!! Great performance Matt - very cool to see how much help the caddies offer at a place like that!

[@GolfSidekick]

The caddies are the real deal there - legends

[@TheBeefTrain]

GOAT.

[@GolfSidekick]

PIG!

[@tonylewis8370]

Brilliant round and so pleased you played / scored well at a bucket list course. Too often we let occasion get to us but you bossed it! ⛳️👍

[@GolfSidekick]

Yeah that is what i was afraid of

[@jventure1961]

Just brilliant. Loved this one. Pebble is the champ.

[@GolfSidekick]

Thanks baus

[@lachd2261]

Terrific round playa - you deserve this!

[@evirs]

Very impressive!! You could've blown up right at the start with a double and a bad drive on 2 but you kept it together. Something everyone can learn from.

[@TheKallum6]

Those greens look insane, i'd 3 putt everything! Well done Matt

[@GolfSidekick]

There were a lot of three putts in this group

[@jojosaute]

Thats what i was here for! A great round at pebble! Waddacaddy!

[@gmbtempe]

Whether it was the moment or whatever your swing was much more balanced and in rhythm then some of the previous videos. Great video and what a day you got at Pebble, so much sunshine.
