In this video we take on one of the most iconic and difficult golf courses in the world — the legendary West Course at Winged Foot Golf Club. As an 8 handicap golfer, I wanted to see how my game would actually hold up on a course known for punishing every mistake, demanding precision on every shot, and featuring some of the toughest greens in golf. From nervous opening tee shots and brutal three putts to scrambling for bogeys and trying to avoid big numbers, this round became a true test of course management, mental toughness, and patience. Along the way we also get an early look at the brand new USGA GHIN app and test some of its upcoming features including GPS yardages, green heat maps, stat tracking, and digital scorekeeping. With cold temperatures, heavy wind, elevated greens, deep bunkers, and classic Winged Foot difficulty, this was an unforgettable bucket list golf experience. Can an amateur golfer survive Winged Foot? Watch the full round to see if my 8 handicap could handle one of the hardest golf courses in the world.

I can see how nervous you were, a large brandy to start would have been ideal, purely for medicinal purposes obviously 😂
Im gotta be honest. Your shots offf the blocks and your non-competitive putting does not put you in single digit handicap territory no matter how hard the course is. No way you are sub 10, no way.
Did your tee shot on the 18th go near the Mickelzone?
Did you give yourself a gimme on 3? I don't believe you made that par putt. You must not have shown it for a reason. Gimmies are the worst and so are the people that give themselves gimmies
I also do not believe you are an 8 handicap. No way
Looks like the rough is about two inches lower than the summer? Usually brutal. Same with Westchester CC
