Is South Africa *THE BEST* Golfing Destination In The World?! | Rough Cut Golf Podcast 104

[@youtubegolfhighlights]

As a South African myself, I love to see the KZbin golfers coming to South Africa. I’ve been saying it for such a long time, South African golf is world class and relatively cheap. Hope you guys come back. Can’t wait to see the content 👀👀

[@EwaldCloete]

Had no idea you were South African. That's awesome man! Watch your channel all the time.

[@nicolalubbe1026]

I agree - living in South Africa we are blessed to have these wonderful courses to play daily

[@codiherman8003]

A fan meet up would've been great!! Love to see SA getting the love it deserves. Glad you guys enjoyed the trip

[@cheslyndavids7370]

I dm’ned asking for this😭

[@EwaldCloete]

Yes!!

[@kingncaba4984]

Looking forward to seeing South African 🇿🇦 golf course content on your channel 🔥🏌🏾‍♂️. PS: Please call again 😁

[@timjames4361]

Welcome to SA team. Pete, we have leopards here mate, not Jaguars! :-) Love the fact that you are enjoying our incredible country and fantastic courses. I have played all of the ones you have mentioned apart from the Links. All incredible. Only change I would have made would have been to play Simola instead of Pezula. Enjoy the rest of the trip.

[@emilespamer]

The content from SA might be the first time I ever re watch YT golf videos. Fav creator best country! Wish there was a fan meetup!

[@RussellRen]

To answer the thumbnail - Yes, yes it is!! 😁🇿🇦🙌🏼⛳

[@kingncaba4984]

💯 PS: I’m biased 😁

[@kylebeswick3777]

So excited you are in South Africa. We wish more people would come as we have amazing courses

[@emilespamer]

De Zalze!!! Oh my I wish you reviewed it in the podcast. This is such a treat as that is my favourite course I have ever played and for the first time I can see what your golf looks like on an course I understand!! Thanks for visiting South Africa and I hope it wont be the last 😊

[@raymondmassie4898]

Golf in the garden route is literally second only to golfing in Scotland - and I’ve lived in both. Pinnacle Point is truly a gem of a course. Pezula & Simola are great, George CC is a great old fashioned course (and club). Mossel Bay is a cracker - so many to choose from

[@glynnllewellyn]

Awesome to hear you guys are in SA, getting me ampt for my game at Pearl Valley this week..... But please don't disrespect the braai and reduce it to a barbaque.

[@antonvandenberg9750]

Welcome to SA Pete! Have a great time around our beautiful courses!

[@rickvermeulen3678]

So glad you came to experience south africa Peter finch.

[@ODGreenZa]

Welcome to my home 😊 I grew up playing in mosselbay area. Actually used to hit balls with luis late 1990s at mossel Bay country club

[@tonybytheway7543]

The scenery is amazing, the food and drink superb and the golf courses are awesome. As long as you are careful where you go and aware of whats around you, then its a great place to visit.

[@craigmeikle7634]

I played arabella 20 years ago & couldn’t believe how amazing it was. I was there playing in the Volkswagen masters world final & the whole set up was out of this world

[@EwaldCloete]

happy to see you guys are finally in South Africa! Hope you're taking the time to get to Leopard Creek! We have so many good courses, but that is one of the best.

[@nickdavis586]

Played golf in SA… one of my favourite places to go. Loved Pezula!

[@rickvermeulen3678]

Looking very forward to the golf videos in south africa. Since there are not many good golf videos of our courses.

[@williamgreen8375]

So glad you got down to South Africa, especially Pinnacle Point where I live when I am back in South Africa and a place I now call home.

[@sethtbaguley]

I'm a Brit who never really got the chance to be consistent with golf growing up in the Midlands. Moved to South Africa when I got married - and have been able to get into single digits and love playing the sport in "forever good weather". It's been a life changer for me being able to enjoy the sport all year round!

[@Kid_Senekal]

Can't wait to see your Pinnacle Point content! In my hometown of Mossel Bay

[@GideonFourie-h4h]

As a South African, we as South Africans are really proud of our country and it doesn’t get the love it deserves. It’s an incredible country and I’m extremely glad you guys got to experience it. South Africa trip 2 coming in 2025?

[@JBC20111]

Haven't even started the podcast yet, and the answer is 'YES!'

[@matthewlovegrove7091]

Glad you came to our special Country! Best value for quality courses in the world! Hands down, not to mention the food and wine!

[@hjabrahams]

Ah man, would have loved a fan meet up with you guys! As someone who lives in Port Elizabeth I would have come down to see you guys play Humewood and St. Francis. I've played a number of the courses you mentioned along the garden route and can't wait to see the videos come out in the new year. Please come back, bring Rick and some other creators with you and put South Africa on the golf map. Thanks for the amazing content.

[@allysmith150]

"Sometimes golf is a pain in the butt" Everyone in my house hold knows what this means. Time for Venezuela's favourite Golf Podcast...Vamos!

[@raymondmassie4898]

This episode has had me smiling all the way through as it has brought back brilliant memories of holding in South Africa. I hope you can get a few rounds in up in Joburg / Pretoria on the way home as some bangers there as well

[@andredejong9113]

So glad you came to SA🎉

[@wehanjoubert550]

Pete and team awesome to see that you guys came to pur beautiful country please do come back and come play courses like leopard creek,highland gate so many more beautiful courses we have to play

[@NeilJohns-d1j]

Great to see that you came to SA.A pity that you didn't come to KZN.Can''t believe that it took so long for you to come over.Can't wait to see the SA series of videos.Bring Rick and do a SA series next time.

[@koosfourie8717]

Amazing so glad you came to SA! Some amazing courses, my favorite is Glendower in JHB!

[@jacquesvdmerwe5586]

Awesome stuff gents! looking forward to the content! Being a local in South Africa, wanted to play some of those for years!

[@J.C]

Would love to see a breakdown of the itinerary, sounds incredible!!

[@GertJackson]

Welcome to our beautiful country. Can’t wait for the videos.

[@scottmcdonald9924]

Let's go! Can't wait to see South Africa!

[@barrydeklerk6286]

You can do 5 more two week trips to South Africa and still not cover all the country, welcome and hope to see you again soon.

[@raymondmassie4898]

You’ve done a fantastic job on behalf of the South African tourist industry

[@raymondmassie4898]

Enjoy Table Mountain. Back in 2000, I did a bungy jump from the cable car - was an experience 😱

[@Croy01]

Great Podcast Lads 👌

[@ptdt85]

Yes! We are the best golfing destination!

[@bhavinivaryani3489]

Finally one of the tubers goes to RSA.!!!

[@brynthomas8950]

Oh well, you'll just have to make another turn and enjoy the spoils of our country. Got to try some golden oldies like George GC, Turtle Creek, Pearl Valley, Atlantic Beach, Stellenbosch, Boschemeer, Steenberg GC and so on and so forth

[@michaeldekoker6728]

You SON OF A B...😂😂😂 Love the content & would've love to meet up! De Zalze's 5min away. Hope to see you back one day

[@andyfrizzell4352]

Looking forward to the content

[@GideonFourie-h4h]

Pete Hermanus has one of the best public courses in South Africa, 27-holes as well

[@fourielewis]

A trip to Kruger National Park. Skukuza the wildest course in the world and obviously Leopard Creek

[@wick3460]

You should come back to South Africa and try the incredible parklands courses in Joburg, Pretoria and Sun City!!

[@antonk27]

Is there gonna be a video from Humewood? I grew up playing there, would love to see it again and hear how you found it

[@sandygovender7410]

Welcome to our beautiful country. Would be great to have a fan meet at your Cape town courses.

[@brendanpeacock4475]

The irony is that foreign tourist golfers generally transfer in Joburg and head straight to the coast, when Gauteng (Joburg/Pretoria) has many of South Africa's finest courses.

[@fishingmonkeyhengel-martin1340]

SA is a great place with awesome views and sights and some spectacular courses. For anyone from overseas coming here is very very cheap as our currency is worth nothing 😂 but for us it is very expensive and the courses you played are awesome (you need to play leopard creek) but for someone like me not playable as it is out my price range.

[@lid1957]

Don't let the PGA Tour get their dirty hands on youtube you will regret it

[@karlportsmouth5571]

I used to live in SA,the golf is phenomenal,I'd recommend that anybody should give it a crack!

[@nathanwillers9995]

Should come to nz

[@Golfing-AddiCt]

I'm here for the IC/AC 😅😂

[@calross7143]

Sounds like you guys only visited and played in the Eastern and Western Cape...the 2 parts with possibly the crappiest weather in South Africa...lol Pity you missed out on the scenery and golf courses in the rest of South Africa offers in Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West and Gauteng... South Africa is the perfect golf creator destination...awesome courses coupled with the exchange rate...perfect!

[@Kid_Senekal]

They could literally spend 2/3 months of filming great, fresh content

[@seanbeamish1328]

If you had a fan meet up I would have been very jealous that I missed it not being there.

[@GideonFourie-h4h]

Pete did you have time to play De Zalze, in Stellenbosch near Lanzerac

[@MrRosswesson]

you should've played Simola

[@andrewstart6772]

It’s quite rare to see three young men act like middle-aged men, in that they couldn’t care less what they look like. Fair play.

[@ezgolf9435]

Welcome to SA, stay safe and with the tour guide/driver: The Top10 when I posted this: 1. Fancourt (The Links) 2. Leopards Creek Country Club 3. St Francis Links 4. Fancourt (Montagu) 5. Pearl Valley 6. Gary Player (Sun City) 7. Arabella Country Estate 8. Millvale Country Estate 9. Humewood 10. Blair Atholl 15, Pinnacle Point 22. Fancourt (Outiniqua) 31. De Zalze You missed 16. Simola that's about 20 minutes away from 23. Pezula And 79.Mossel Bay is just around the corner from Pinnacle Point And 24.Erinvale (Also in Cape Town) & Booby Locke's Favourite course 34. Clovelly (Also in Cape Town) Then when you add Natal and Gauteng courses, you'll have to visit for months and will be blown away on every course and the diversity. Next time I will caddy for free

[@Kid_Senekal]

I had to go Google where Millvale is, somehow never heard of it. Looks stunning though!

[@ezgolf9435]

@@Kid_Senekal It's because of it's exclusivity, they only have 9members currently and is South Africa’s most private course, owned by Investec, the investment bank, for the use of its top management and clients.

[@wallmunky503]

I agree that Scottie's run as of recent can justifiably be compared to prime Tiger's reign. However, by no fault of his own, these accomplishments will have an asterisk next to them saying that he's also winning in a divided professional scene. The best players in the world are split between tours now. There will be nay-sayers that believe he can't get his roses until we have a true unification between tours, and by that point, who knows who else will be on top. I'm not saying he doesn't deserve praise, but you can't deny the circumstance. I think that has a lot to do with maybe why his supremacy has been kind of downplayed.

[@golfbn]

Why would they put Bob does sports on a golf council.. FP is the only golfer on it and he dont have a channel. Half the others I have never heard of and I live in the US.

Would love to know where else you are going?

[@christiaankriel420]

im from hermanus, ... you shouldve played hermanus Golf Course, better than arabella

Eish, Leopards Peter, not Jaguars. dont have those here.l

Weirdest job interview I've heard for a seat on the Creator council😂

[@gerardsmyth1258]

PGA Coming together with You tube is a step. But sadly The PGA needs to see golf is an international sport not just US based ..and if it doesn't embrace all the world we will have another LIV type you tube side ? The PGA needs to think bigger than just the US

Nope. Scotland is.

It’s not even the best golfing destination in the southern hemisphere, let alone the world. Utter click bait nonsense.
