Rick Bring Rory!!!

[@AlexCameron-Depiqd]

Feel like this should be a new mini series in itself. Rick brings his tour pro friends to this course to see who can shoot under par. It’d great to see bigger and bigger names attempt this. Plus a nice little boost for the course too.

[@medichampion328]

Just imagine if Rick brought Tiger here.

[@ianmacwhinnie8783]

Agreed, tour pro and Rick scramble on a Break 60 mission around local clubs

[@noobsaibot555]

It needs to be a mini series.. it looks like a really really hard track

[@Colts814Life]

Great idea. Would love to see this

[@peterandresen328]

Rick should play as well so we can gauge the difference 😮

[@HughsReviews]

How respectful is Ryan? Asking Rick if it was cool to record a video for himself. Knowing he’s on someone else’s channel he thought to ask. I like that.

Ian poulter was my personal favourite

[@spicekid2582]

Faldo

[@luketapp3233]

Really enjoyed both of these aswell. The analysis from them both was unrivalled!

[@lucasvandenberg1518]

Ryan seems like such a cool, humble, genuine guy. So much fun to watch the videos he's been in. Let's get him on more often! Maybe for a "normal" Break 75 with you and Guy? I'd love to know what his target number would be! :) :)

[@bluestangGT2001]

I wish the PGA tour would adopt this style of course. Less distance, tighter fairways. Bring more creativity and shot shaping back into the game instead of just who can hit it the furthest

[@ohmyfungus5810]

Why do that when you can just completely change the ball and create a huge division between the amateur and professional game? I agree the courses don’t have to be 8,000 yards to be a real challenge

[@kenbrown2808]

at least mixing them in would be the counter to the trend of going for distance.

[@chr970]

Good point blue. We have all played those 5000 yard courses with narrow fairways, big dog legs, and the odd tree placed where it has no business being haha. But they are fun and challenging.

What a great guy Ryan is. It's ridiculous how well he knows his own game and the conditions he is playing in. Keep making content with this bloke Rick , what you have done so far is a real eye opener into the mindset of a tour pro.

[@AlabamaGolfer]

I think this is one of the best videos you’ve done in a while. Watching professional level golf with Rick’s professional level narrating, commentary, and sausage roll reviews makes for a very engaging video to watch. Loved it! Ryan is pure class as well.

[@michaelgarden6554]

Ryan and Rick vs James and GUY would be so much fun to watch. Ryan is class.

[@liamdll3044]

Great shout👍

[@StephenPendleton-j7n]

What a really enjoyable round with Ryan. This looked a really tricky course, and to have had no previous experience playing it speaks volumes of this mans talent. Thanks again Rick to you and the team for providing your followers with brilliant relatable golf.

[@rickfaragher6186]

I was a member at Pastures for a couple of years while at uni in Derby in the naughties. First day, I was surprised when a member told me no one had ever broken par. Many years later I couldn’t believe it when Rick first filmed there. 1) little Pastures Golf Club was getting this incredible exposure and 2) all that time later and, still, no one had broken par. Having watched this video and the James Robinson attempt though I understand why it’s only happened once. Fair play to everyone at Pastures for supporting these videos. Everyone I met there was really lovely and this has brought back some great memories (and a few nightmares).

[@Apache247100]

Ryan is one of the best guests. Glad we've seen him a few times now.

[@timothybevis6095]

What a gentleman Ryan is. So good. Thanks to both of you. And the members.

[@louissands672]

Love these challenges on small technical courses with the Pros ❤ Rick I play at Marston Lakes just up from The Belfry and we're a Par 62 course, small and technical like Pastures 👍🏻 You probably will never see this but if you and your other pro friends are in the area come give us a visit and smash the lights out on a course record 🔥

[@tkhubb]

I've watch a lot of these pro v KZbin golfer formats and am always blown away by how humble/kind the pros are. Ryan, Adam Scott, Fowler, Faldo etc. are all just nice people.

[@fatseaturtle]

That course looked pristine! Love to see such a great community turnout!

[@AlwaysDoingSomething]

I love how Ryan shares his thoughts so freely and is so genuine. What a fantastic golf and great personality for KZbin.

[@georged93]

Ryan is up there with easily the best guest the channel has ever had, love the videos with him in👍🏼

[@BenWann]

This is awesome. I love all the folks there live walking the course with Rick and Ryan. What an awesome community you have built Rick, I can’t wait to watch your content each week!!!!

[@martindyke3903]

Ryan is brilliant. Get him back every time he's available. A very good video 👍

[@kevingowdy3651]

This was brilliant! loved it. I bet the locals are pleased that Ryan didn't quite get there. Keep the intrigue of the course going. There's a money opportunity for the club here too. Well done for another great video.

[@robbragg5712]

We need to see ruffles Vs James.. I would love to see it

[@todd5dogs]

Damn was going to suggest that!

[@DosProtatoes]

Both of them back on this golf course. See if the competitive nature gets them shooting under par to break the record.

[@4ndy123]

Yeah! And the other pro he had before

[@dalefurniss3724]

Both shooting it out for the record would be unreal content. They could get a read off each other too. I’m sure the record holder did.

[@muhrvis]

That would be unreal, and somehow one of the friendliest rounds possible!

[@kevos65]

Gotta keep this challenge going,so many guests available and out there,help each other out.. Pete, Matt, Andy, James,Bully..so many.. great video Rick, lovely course

[@alexstackhouse8932]

I've been in those trees so much! Rick's timing hasn't been great either time, once it's wet at the Pastures the greens slow right down as Ryan experienced. Great video guys, will be playing 9 there on Sunday with no danger poses to the record 😂

[@josephdivisconti396]

That was great. I love to watch a Pro play these courses. Thank you Rick.

[@mivelmo]

This is the course I grew up on! Spent so much time after school mucking around on the course, absolutely surreal seeing you and these tour pros take it on. Love it Rick!

[@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405]

I don't think I would've stuck with golf if I had to learn to play on this course 😅 Looks amazing out there. Would love to cross the pond and play the courses in the UK.

[@mivelmo]

@@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405 There were definitely some moments that it made me question my existence, but also very fun. If you take driver on some of the holes you can get it up near the green, but mostly you're chipping out from under trees.

Great to see a different sort of course and challenge and Ryan seems a genuine, humble chap too. 10:12 - if you think that's a mud ball then I can show you a lot worse!!😂

[@MrDavewales]

Really enjoyed that, what a nice lad Ryan is. He was so unlucky with so many of them putts. To get so close without even playing it before was class, tough ole course.

[@daviddeking2676]

Another great video with Ryan! It's amazing how narrow and tree lined the Pastures is and how a player of Ryan's caliber can have difficulties playing it. Thanks for sharing!

[@psychologicalprojectionist]

You can see why it is a difficult course. Trees everywhere, tiny greens, long par threes and unpredictable greens. Ryan played well enough to beat the record, but just needed some putts to drop and possibly slightly better conditions. Well played Ryan!

[@robthomsen6928]

What a fun community event. Would have loved to be able to be there with a bunch of neighbors and fellow golfers. Well done and thank you!

[@markjones6687]

Really enjoyed this one , it would be great to see more tour pros attempt this because all though not the longest of courses every hole demands respect.

[@andyyung504]

[@ulfhettstedt5606]

[@NiceThingsToEat]

Ryan is a class player and a class bloke too, love these videos with him. Would absolutely love to see what one of the very very top tour pros (Rory, Scottie) etc would do round here, provides such an interesting challenge compared to the usual diet on the PGA of just blasting driver round.

[@JimmyG0LFS]

Agreed

[@ralfbear]

I really like Ryan... genuine, respectful guy. I hope we get to see more of him on the channel, if his timetable allows it... 👍🏻

[@matts7048]

The Ryan/Rick combo is great. Appreciate both of you legends

[@markbarnes1979]

Great video. I was a member here for about 20 years, and also worked here as a green keeper, during summers when at University. I managed to get down to 5 playing here. I had a few level par 9's, but my best round was 66 (+2) in practice and a 67 (+3) in a competition. I think I still have the scorecard somewhere 😂. Like Ryan found out there is not an easy birdie here, especially on the par 3s. If you are a low handicaper around Pastures, most can often play well at other courses that offer more space / room for error and shorter par 3s. Whilst it's not a long course it makes you a very strong long iron player and because a lot of the greens are slightly raised, it also forces you to be a good chipper. In practice rounds you can use woods off the tee, and when the fairways are dry some of the par 4s are drivable, but if you are wayward you're in a whole load of trouble. I also marked the card for old course record (65....+1), before the course was changed. Would love to see some more Pros take on this challenge at Pastures or see Ryan back. Pastures........The Home of Golf ❤

[@jackofsuit]

Honestly kind of glad that the local chap still has the record. Imagine if a pro from outside came in just to take your record.

[@davidperthwa2156]

..thanks for letting us know the ending..

[@jwilder2251]

Agreed. There’s some old time charm to this kind of exhibition, but it’s a community course, not a tour venue. It definitely stood up to great players, hats off, but let them have the record.

[@DadLeisureSkateboarding]

Great effort, especially as the course record would have been set by somebody who knew the course inside out, plays it regularly and had luck on their side that day. Would love to see what Rick and Guy score here and some other tour pros too.

[@paul_raftery]

I enjoyed listening to a pro discuss his decisions on the way he plans each shot. Top guy too

Seems almost impossible playing the course for first time. He would do it the next time he played. His up and downs were incredible.

[@nicklewis6042]

What a nice guy Ryan is!!! Good luck mate for the rest of the year

[@20ATS]

Genuinely think Ryan would have scored better taking a few of those Par 4s on. His short game was unreal.

If you could, I would love to see James and Ryan get another chance at this course….together. I think those 2 would get along and I do feel there is some advantage having a playing partner.

[@StillAProudAmerican-ll2yc]

Very enjoyable guest. Ryan, you were great. You said something at the end that deserves repeating. You want to come back and play again now that you know the course. Guess what? The person that holds the course record has probably played it quite a few times. You learn it and play it, maybe match play with Rick, and then... BREAK THAT RECORD!!!

My father, who was a passionate amateur golfer, always believed that professional golfers might struggle on public golf courses. He often mentioned that the speed of the greens would be a challenge for them. He would have thoroughly enjoyed watching videos on this topic.

Ryan on that course where it would be mowed like in Florida and lightening greens, he would go way under. I would’ve loved to see Ryan try driving a couple of Par 4 greens as he could easily reach

[@terrysparkes5082]

No. target golf is WHY pro's shoot 23 under etc. it's about course management. not just bombing a ball 300 yards. Keep it on the runway. Then you have a good chance of scoring.

[@thebikepackingadventurer]

@@terrysparkes5082 oh I know this. Hitting a holding a green from 330 is unlikely. However would’ve been good to see. The greens were unpredictable here so shooting super low would be tough due to conditions as well as being tight
