Tourist Sauce (Oregon): Episode 3, "Bandon 101"

[@mikejones4200]

Throw this in Sundance and you’re walking away with hardware. DJ Pie deserves a raise with this one!!

[@dlfresh1]

DJ is such a talent, the camera work obviously is incredible but his interviewing skill is so crucial to the story and so underrated, bravo 👏

[@brianperticari]

Could not agree more! Well done

[@frostbrock]

Couldn't have said it better. This should be the official Bandon promotional video.

[@tylerhawk4693]

Get these boys a Netflix deal

[@tshutt44]

This episode is the best golf content on KZbin, cable TV, anywhere. Unreal DJ.

[@BenWolff14453O]

Neil & Randy reading about the closed cafe is exactly how I feel whenever I hear the music as Neil flies too close to the Sun

[@stephenpearson9149]

"The strapped boys know how to make a five and a half hour trip eight hours." The kid's table of tourist sauce

[@cohenstebbings4966]

most golf videos don't make me feel jealous but this one did speaks volume to how this content is being presented and makes the viewers feel when watching

[@coltrane2]

The Pie Man getting some much deserved love for this one. Strangely emotional video. Good shit

[@orangeroughy5205]

Strangely emotional is right. I'm embarrassed how many times I've watched the final five minutes just to feel it again.

[@TheMikeMase]

i've never been to bandon and I was almost in tears the entire time.

[@hodido1171]

DJ’s first born should be called “Emmy”

[@MikeCline]

This is breathtaking work. As an Oregonian, you guys nailed it.

[@danewestermeyer995]

DJ: “You guys are gonna forget to do everything.” Neil: “No we’re not, Dad.” Viewers: “Hey Neil, who had the best comment on episode 2?”

[@MultiJokerful23]

The vibe was so good in this episode I almost felt nostalgic watching it, despite never having been to the State of Oregon let alone Bandon itself. Brilliant footage, incredible editing and a perfect soundtrack. Top notch stuff, well done boys you've really excelled.

[@joelepricesr]

Truly my favorite video y’all have ever put out. Bandon has been my dream golf vacation since I heard about from my buddy who got me into golf. As silly as it seems this video just kinda hit me in the feels. The life lessons spoke about and just beauty of that area are incredible. Job well done. NLU for life.

[@nickhennick]

What a AMAZING watch!!! I live 10 mins from the, "Dunes." I spent many years working at Bandon before the, "Trails, Old Mac, Preserve and Sheep Ranch." Mr Keiser I have had the pleasure of meeting numerous times. Such a friendly, caring and down to earth individual. Have met Shorty. He was actually a trapper in the years before the Dunes. I play here often in fact concluding a round at The Trails on Sunday. Bandon Dunes is truly,, "Golf as it was meant to be.." and I am beyond grateful to consider Bandon Dunes not only a golf course, but, "Family." This is where I picked up the game and this is where I have built lasting friendships as well as experiencing serenity. I owe Mr Keiser a thank you. If it wasnt for him I would never have picked up this game I love. Well done and thank you again for the amazing watch!!! 💯⛳ #PNWGOLF

[@ravBuffalo]

Randy summed up this episode: the journey is the destination... what a fitting way to explain Mike Keiser’s odyssey to build Bandon and NLU’s drive there in the episode!

[@Kennystuth]

This is literally unreal. I’ve been watching a long time and this is just incredible. I’ve sent it to so many people that I know that doesn’t even golf it’s that good. Great work DJ and everybody involved!

[@justinlachney2743]

My wife doesn't care one bit about golf, but watched the entire video. She is now bound an determined that our 10 year anniversary will be a trip to Bandon. She loved the scenery of the drive, the emotional connection to the story of Bandon, and the vibe of the place. Thanks for helping me out fellas.

[@1texark]

Every episode is better than the next, but this one will be hard to top. Brilliant

[@jamieangove9031]

This has to be the most incredible piece of film floating around. For the idea of an episode is just the drive here this is fantastic

[@mikecerbone3185]

Following the NLU crew the past few years has been the epitome of the journey being the destination. Unreal progression since the original Chucky triple sticks podcast days. What a ride. Keep it up boys.

[@chrisk5072]

I remember listening to their podcasts when you could only find it on their website 5+ years ago and to see where the crew’s come is unreal. Production value is miles ahead of any other golf content providers by. Time to go buy some merch to keep these coming.

[@mryoungster277]

As someone who has seen ALL of the content you guys have put out, I can say this episode is by far the best! Unbelievable job men! ‘Showing Americans what the Scotts and Irish have always known’ THE BEST!

[@ahn1ad]

crazzzzy production levels

[@hodido1171]

Bandon Dunes & NLU are both P1 in their industries 👏🏽

[@TG-ue1mr]

Late to the party but this is an outstanding series about Bandon Dunes. Just fantastic work. Love the interviews, golf course footage, interactions between the guys, the music is great… well done gentlemen!

[@adrianguckian7110]

6 week lockdown with no golf here in Ireland from today - this content will help bridge the gap and make us all look forward to the days on the golf course to come. Thanks NLU

[@nickshepard4147]

This is some grade a stuff right here. You guys aren't just producing great golf content, but great content in general. Everytime I watch a tourist sauce episode whatever course y'all are covering becomes my next bucket list course. From the strapped boys to the wild world to tourist sauce, this is the best content on KZbin. Great work guys.

[@kiiiiiiingd]

I'm travelling to golf destinations yearly and this series makes me miss it so much. I know we have other problems right now, but I hope one day we will get our lifes back like they were.

[@andrewbriang]

Everybody rightly talking about how beautifully this was put together by DJ, but my favorite part of the video was Neil and Randy's impression of an F1 driver and his engineer.

[@UWPurpleAndGold]

Anyone who has been knows it’s all true. Anyone who hasn’t needs to find out how true it is. Blown away by “Bandon 101”. It captured the essence of the place and added depth that the book “Dream Golf” couldn’t quite capture. Keep it up boys. This is perfect.

[@blakedial6194]

You guys couldn't be more right about the feeling you have when you leave. Your thoughts are consumed with how and when you are going back. This episode only further exacerbated that feeling. Phenomenal job.

[@Greatbatch87]

I don’t know why but I cried in this episode. 😂❤️ such a good episode guys

[@gumptiger4912]

Dirty Guv’Nahs are simply the best. Perfect song selection. Perfect

[@gyanbains6124]

DJ you need to ask the C suite for a raise

[@evanbecker80]

Damn, the boys got me crying in the club on a Tuesday, brilliant stuff

[@yummystuff238]

Actual better production than 90% of movies. Well done

[@davidscharenbroich7020]

Loved this episode of Planet Earth with an F1 race in the middle of it.

[@timyorke4465]

Not ashamed to admit I got a bit emotional watching that one, if a KZbin video could ever capture the essence of golf I don’t know but this one comes mightily close. Well done to everyone involved 👏

[@timothymuha4009]

Really happy i listened to the nest pod before i watched this. Brought that ride from Gearhart to Bandon to life. Good job team.

[@rmcdonald844]

This is the greatest video I’ve ever witnessed on KZbin. Unbelievable footage and some cracking insight into the history of Bandon Dunes. It also pips ‘Ep.5 of Tourist Sauce Ireland’ for best Tourist Sauce episode. Class.

[@matthartford7884]

With this fantastic piece + the already great collection of Tourist Sauce, the Pie Man is quickly closing the gap to becoming the most talented "DJ" in golf.

[@soleary053]

Mike Keiser used Royal Dornoch as a model, that's so cool. Would be a tough scene to see the Big Guy get the shanks here as well

[@tshirttan]

The shanks are for life, you never get rid of them. They're always lurking

[@seanlearyjr.2711]

Please don’t use the “s word” around me. Bad vibes man.

[@allanthomson8969]

A shank is a reminder that you have taken the fundamentals of your swing mechanics for granted. They are NEVER in your head, only in your action. Reset back to the basics you ought to know and normal service will resume accordingly.

[@paulmc4326]

Had you told me you'd start the Bandon portion, and not feature a match prominently, I would have been disappointed, and then I watched this spiritual 29 minutes of footage. Looks like the Pinehurst trip is moving a few years back.

[@peteadams2752]

Incredible episode boys. Well done. 👏 Do you have a soundtrack list available? Would love to explore some of the tunes in this episode.

[@thubamzila5586]

I've known for a long time that I love "golf - the sport", but NLU has also made me realise that I love "golf - the story" probably just as much.

[@michaeldelgais8530]

NLU, you've caught lightening in a bottle with this one. Kudos to you and thank you

[@stephencarpenter4878]

This is such wonderful content and I'm sure all involved know this already. I couldn't allow myself to leave this video with giving some sort of praise. The cinematography, editing, and music choices and timing was top notch, and the interviewing and just overall blend of personalities in this episode were fantastic. Job well done. Can't wait for the next episode.

[@thomasphillips468]

Wonderful video guys. One day I will get over to experience it myself. I am so very fortunate that Mikes influence made its way to my home in Tasmania. Looking forward to the next videos, best golf content hands down.

[@joshclark9658]

Breathtaking stuff here. Production. Film and scoring. Storytelling. This episode made me fall more in love with golf than I already was before, and that is truly something special. Thank you sincerely gents.

[@Cheers2100]

I'm lost for words at how good this episode was..... absolute masterpiece from start to finish. I cant quite grasp why you only have 59k subscribers, you are head and shoulders above any other golf content online or TV for that matter. I've been watching since you started out and it just gets better and better....Keep up the good work chaps.

[@Merckxfan531]

What an enjoyable watch--this is the quintessential introduction to Bandon. You guys really capture the essence of what makes golf and golf trips one of the best parts of life. My hat's off to DJ and the boys for the top-notch production value--holy cow!

[@maxoverend3222]

This is one of the best pieces of cinematography I have ever seen. Endless praise to DJ and the crew for this one.

[@TCRBrad]

Just when I thought Big Randy at Dornoch was the most spiritual piece I've heard, here comes 22:35 till the end. Sheesh...right in the feels. Good stuff.

[@krishalsrud2210]

Have to echo most of the comments on here. This is the best golf episode I have ever seen in any medium!

[@harryludwig1509]

I’m so frustrated Watching this knowing it takes so much time to make something this good, but wanting the next episode or continuation of the story immediately. This is just so well done.

[@kristianwren3614]

I would happily part with money if a complete DVD/Blu-ray box set of Tourist Sauce ever materialised. Glorious work, Pieman!!

[@ericstride2224]

Absolutely nailed it. I've seen many, many Keiser/Kidd interviews and never get this detail and passion. As a native Oregonian the rota for this season is exactly what I would have chosen. Well done gents. Can't wait to see Neil go full Icarito in the next couple episodes...prob at Trails.

[@brendanconnelly5610]

Mike Keiser is one of the good guys

[@halkesracing]

Ive seen every episode on the channel, this is the best one. The place, the guests, the commentary, the edit. Best one yet! Bandon was already on my list of dream destinations and this reaffirmed the need for me to get there atleast once in my life.

[@stevenfortney2752]

Just got back from Bandon. Very fortunate that I can get there easily from the great City of Seattle. Love Bandon. Thank you for putting these awesome videos together so we can learn more and more about the story behind the resort.

[@mattliljequist]

30 minute love story to heaven on earth.

[@YelvoTRON]

You guys know how to capture the beauty of the game. Love every thing you guys produce

[@n45red]

Yeah, that moment when he says he modeled after Dornoch and then the immediate cut to Dornoch and clips from that episode...just hit me right in the feels. Incredible work on this one and all the videos, but this one is next-level. I'll be rewatching this a lot.

[@AlexMeyer1]

I can't believe this website is free. Thanks, NLU.

[@jcurrin1904]

Just as Bandon Dunes broke the mold, so did this video. Perfectly done.

[@golfbug95]

I never thought that I would get emotional as a golfer from Scotland on a video of American Links golf, incredible story telling and I cannot wait to visit one day!

[@goodgolfonly4911]

Usually trying to think of a Witty comment for these episodes. But this one has us on the borderline of tears. Incredible work.

[@patmarkey4987]

I don't know anything about these places and probably won't get there sadly . But videos are so good now you feel a little bit of escapism and it keeps the dream alive. From lockdown in Ireland, thanks for the trip in my mind.

[@mattgudorf]

That was the best episode yet of any season

[@jonstyles1811]

Golf is my biggest love. This is the best thing I have ever watched. Brilliant DJ

[@TrishyWishyTishy]

This is the best NLU episode of all time. Incredible stuff. Good work Pieman.

[@patricklavigne4963]

Great story, great story telling, great production value. Just great you guys.

[@dustin9181]

I live 10 minutes from Bandon Dunes, you all need to come enjoy this gem you won’t regret it.

[@bobbymcclure44]

I could've watched 3+ hours on this resort and the history behind it! I cannot wait until I get the chance to visit this place!

[@itmattersk]

Well done guys. This episode is a culmination of your years of work. Established and relatable characters in Big Randy and Neil (and the rest of the crew), credibility to access the right people, and beautiful cinematography learned from previous Tourist Sauce episodes. Proud of you guys and enjoyed watching the growth of No Laying Up.

[@joshuagillock7666]

Fantastic Episode! Every trip to Bandon for me has been exactly what Gretchen expressed and I get to go once, sometimes twice a year! It is my happy place! Can't wait to see the rest of the SAUCE!!!

[@mvmnt3scherzo]

Back to watch this for the third time, not kidding. This is the best content you guise have created.

[@greyman419]

I look forward to binge watching this season over and over in a few months

[@tyleregan]

All I need is Mr.Keiser, some beer, bourbon and DJ laying out the questions to break the ice and we might all finish off 2020 on a highnote.

[@dancarlsen]

Brilliant! You guys really stepped up your game on this one. The cinematography was beautiful, the way you interspersed the interviews with Mike and David with the travelogue was artful, just overall the best thing I’ve ever read or watched in explaining what makes Mike Keiser’s approach to building courses so unique. Watched it 3 times already and have told my golf buddies that this is a must watch. Thanks!

[@BCinTtown]

I really enjoy all of the NLU Videos. Especially the Tourist Sauce series. Having been to Scotland I understand these are trips of a lifetime for most people. The portrayal of each locale is outstanding and has helped shape the bucket list trips for me and some of my buddies. Keep up the good work and if you need another team member please keep me in mind 😜.

[@AlphonseGoettlerRealtor]

As advertised on NLU, the best episode you've ever produced!

[@James-el2lp]

Been dreaming about this place for years. This piece is a Magnificent portrait of the coast. Thanks for the anecdotal background of this beautiful property. You guys always make this look so much fun. Need to get there soon!

[@ericmolt5821]

What a masterpiece gentleman. Editing was spot on.....EPIC

[@jimrohnstock9913]

Well done guys. Every time I see a video of Brandon Dunes it looks even more interesting. Not sure I'll ever get there but really would like to. Can't wait for the next video. Keep up the great work

[@cartermackay44]

That was more enjoyable and memorable than any movie I’ve watched in a long time

[@aaronconner2010]

I’m sold! Bandon here I come! What a beautiful site and amazing golf in the States. Thanks for all the work that goes into sharing NLU.

[@kylethompson6635]

I could watch 4 hours of this. Great job guys.

[@lewisdean3443]

Best thing I have ever watched on KZbin and I watch a...lot...of KZbin!!! Bravo DJ and friends =)

[@brianperticari]

Mr. Keiser is the real deal. Wow! Guy is a genius.

[@JoeHiggins-bk8it]

Wow! Right time right place perfectly, crafted and enjoyed

[@bmr0909]

Probably my favorite piece of content y’all have produced. Bandon is a special place and you did it justice! Cheers

[@rufusvandyke1838]

Finally! You don't know how many times I've searched for a Bandon NLU...

[@alistairwooster6460]

Tremendous episode and so good to hear from Mr Keiser, what a guy.....a true man of golf. Great vision and execution. Hope to visit Bandon one day, but I still have more than a few to play here in GB&I first!.

[@mattsheppard4520]

This episode hit me right in the feels. Incredible.

[@anthonyaguilar4727]

“Links Golf is just nature’s way of recreating” 🔥🔥🔥 And it was captured beautifully here boys 👌🏽

[@BenMercer]

As the young kids say, this was an absolute banger. Excited for the content y'all are putting out... Keep em coming!

[@carlosarturohb]

Man oh man. What an episode. Congrats guys, really captured the essence of the place. I went to Bandon last year for the first time, we're a group from Panamá, and this year we had to cancel because of Covid. No doubt I will be going as many times as I can. Congratulations on amazing content, I'm a big fan of the podcast as well. Great stuff!

[@jasonconsidine9927]

Even though Bandon was already at the top of my bucket list this production gave me some interesting feels. I feel disappointed I haven't made the journey from my Rural Pennsylvania home but I also feel fully confident that when I do make the trek it will likely be a life altering event. The production of your content continues to evolve and impress, the story telling was always a strength, add the down to earth interview style and No Laying Up productions check every box. 🍻

[@justinirish633]

With Keiser saying that Dornoch was the inspiration for Bandon, Randy should write the 2nd book of yardage and future pilgrims to Bandon can read from the book of yardage, Thanks be to Donald.

[@KarlosLFoster]

This isn’t my first time watching this series, and every time I watch I think to myself “how on earth am I watching this for free?”. Feels like robbery on my part, this production value is akin to Netflix and the likes
