Hello today we are going to the golf course and um I’m just getting ready I was actually at the range just now so I’m wearing this I have a new microphone I’ve tested it out I think it’ll be good I filmed a video with a different
Microphone and I didn’t love it so I don’t know if I’m going to upload that but we’re going to the same golf course that I played my first nine holes at that was on October 26 I believe was my first N9 holes and I think I scored a
68 I know it was not a 69 because that would have been funny uh yeah I know what I’m going to wear I think I know what I’m going to wear this keeps me so warm and it’s a vest so it doesn’t get in the way of the
Swing but I’m scared of the noise oh I should test out my microphone let’s see if it works okay so if I were to apply install put this microphone here how would this do if I had a vest on like I hope the audio is okay CU I
Really want to wear it it is so cold outside guys it is like 43 here is the noise cancelling function the green light so try this out too I really want this video to work I want this to be fun I want to see
My progress and I want to share it so I hope this ends up nice Al so this is fall golf cold weather golf I have my leggings on from earlier but I also put these like swish swashy gray pants on in case it rains or is wet whatever and
Then I like to wear bodysuits because when you swing oh when you swing if your stomach is exposed it’s really cold I’m going to wear my golf sweater but I want to wear this halter top I got this on Etsy I think it just says golf like this
Looks like a preppy classy little Ensemble oh my God I can’t do it well below my 155 away I’ll explain what’s happening in a Moment that’s fine okay two putts at least I can explain so I’ve not been here for a really long time and last time I came here the guy at the clubhouse is like oh that’s was a really good drive and I didn’t know that they could see from the
Clubhouse so then the next time I came out here I totally chunked my drive like three times in a row so I was just really nervous because I went in and there first thing is like oh where have you been and I just felt really shy and then I remembered that
They could see us okay this is like 131 or something I play from the Reds and they’re over there but the sign also says tea off from the mat so I think this is the right thing to do seven iron 131 to the middle just on I’m going to try to redeem myself
After my opening double because I usually get a double on the all so that was no improvement but this is a par three I’m on the green just on it’s to back P so I just got to do a lengthy putt there’s a worm I almost
Picked it up I thought it was a twig I’ll leave it be this is a big putt okay I’m good with that this is about a 13f footer so let’s see what we can do M bog if even cuz I’ve passed the cup now I’ve got a lot of meat left on this
Bone okay maybe today’s not the day to film honestly this is this sucks this is another par 4 but this one has like a slight dog leg left and I don’t know how far anything is cuz I lost the scorec card so the whites and
The reds are on the same tea box today is a mess I like I knew that I’d be a pile of nerves but I didn’t know it would be like this this is I’m so nervous right now I don’t know if it’s filming or being here this is such a beautiful day
Too I feel like I’m wasting it on this bad golf so I don’t know if it’s my camera am I nervous am I just putting a lot of pressure on myself I’m not sure I’m GNA go quit golf is there like another hobby I could do while I’m here Today and I’m in the trees all right I know this is like one of the hardest holes I think I don’t know they’re all hard when you’re not good at golf but I think I have a plan so I did make it on The Fairway or
The very left of it um I don’t have a shot to the pin so I’m just going to go for the right of it stay Fairway hopefully seven iron let’s see what [Applause] happens I don’t want to pass the Fairway there you go that’s good good good good can’t complain okay that was
Good I can breathe again see this going to be like a comeback story on my own channel Cinderella the underdog trying to come back from a four putt on a part three that I was on the green and one but you can’t keep thinking about those bad shots happen I
Practiced putting all morning and just it wasn’t in the car CS I think I just honestly I have nothing else to attribute it to except for nerves so to get rid of them but not deny them because I feel like that makes them last longer I’m nervous but it’s okay I hit a
Good seven I hit onto the Fairway let’s see how this one goes isn’t this lighting kind of good kind of like I love overcast I love fall I don’t know how this microphone’s picking anything up because it is pretty windy they said there’s a 10% chance of rain which means
I could have worn a skirt I wore waterproof pants for like 10% of a reason it’s about 50 yards to the pin at the front of the green my back swing like choked on the grass and I didn’t even stop should have redone it from here
I’ll just putt this is good enough I’m just going to start putting now oops that’s okay it’s about 7t not very precise with those steps I don’t think I started like the middle of the hole but we’ll see what happens I was a confident putter this morning I’d like to see her
Again there she is all right that is really good news I don’t know what Theo score is I got to tabulate and I need a score card guys this is like 285 if I don’t get this score lower I’m so far I’m plus one for breaking 100 so I’d
Really like to be at least zero for that see what I can do I swung way too hard because my angle was so D like I’m so glad that worked out but that was a bad swing guys did you see you can see it I’m sure um I owe
You a retract man that was not that bad of a swing that was not anything to complain about I did feel like my alignment was off so I felt almost like I overcompensated but that worked out and I just watched it back it was a fine swing I’m happy with it found the
Fairway again 96 to the front 111 to the middle the pin is in the front but it’s by the bunker so I’m not flirting with it I’m going to try to get to the middle of the green not try to pin hunt cuz look at that there’re bunkers on
Both sides um I’ll tell you something in a sec RS left oh come on oh no so what I was going to say is that I think I stressed myself out after that first t- shot because I hit Fairway Fairway green and regulation on the three like I’m not
Even doing bad that shot wasn’t my best but I got there the distance was okay it was just left so I I need to relax I feel a lot more relaxed than before but I could tell it down a couple more poetry like how as I was saying I’m
Not doing too bad guys I flew the green with my nine iron I think I hit it a little thin and I just like passed the green hit a chain link fence and there just a pile of leaves so hopefully I find it but like I said yeah I’m plus
One for breaking 100 I think I can get the score down a bit but if I don’t you know how fun it is golfing in this weather and being out here and walking here I am again on my own little chippy get up there though yeah that’s cute my back swing uh Tempo
Has been like well I’m not a good dancer so it doesn’t surprise me that I don’t have good Tempo but I think I have like comedic timing so you think I’d have golf swing timing I don’t know what I’m talking about it’s a 10f footer for par
Is this 10 feet I don’t know 10 of my feet for par oh man that’s fine those don’t bother me two putts don’t usually bother me even if it’s like that I just don’t like three well okay hold on did I just almost do a self-fulfilled prophecy
Okay yeah so two putts don’t bother me I’m fine with a bogy totally fine with it uh I feel like I’m turning this round around next up par five this is a 441 yard par five adjusted par 7even super duper dog leg left so what I’m going to
Do since I shoot left anyway it’s my miss the bunkers are where the corner is so I’m going to go for it I’ll be okay if I’m in the bunker I just want to try to cut some of this distance because I don’t hit anything far so 444 like that’s a
Lot oh man I don’t know if I went over that fence but if I made it I cut so much distance off this hole if I made that that will be good because I won’t have that much in usually I go this way and you have so cuz it’s like this you have
So much yardage back there I hope I cut it I did successfully cut the corner I think I saved myself a shot I’m 12 two to the 100 yard Mark cuz I don’t have a clear shot to the green which is 218 away I didn’t
Hit that far I just cut it so I’m going to aim for that stick I’m on a leaf oh well you know what I’m not mad at that contact for being below my feet because I top every shot so that’s my seven iron this is a three shot par five even
Cutting the corner 444 it’s pretty long for me I don’t have a club in the bag that goes over 200 so just do what I can to try to trim some Strokes where I can oh I’m closer than I thought so I aimed for that red steak and here I am okay I’m
121 to the front 141 to the middle it’s a back pin uphill a little bit but I’m still doing my seven iron because the next Club up would go just it’s not as consistent it would go too far so I’m going to try to just get this on the Green
Run run run run and after all that I rolled off the green but I’m fine with it I didn’t know they were this rolly I’m going to chip on I think it’ll be okay to chip yeah cuz it’s really high to putt I think I’ll put myself in a bad
Spot if I putt so just try to chip this nice and soft I think that did all right compared to what a putt would have [Applause] done oh it’s going to blow by left myself a lot more than I wanted I thought I hit soft no joke I thought
That I needed more juice on that so here we go back around what is this three putts one two three yeah that’s fine that’s my fault I got on in three or just under but this is a crazy green I’m going to hit my pitching wedge it’s 75 to the front
95 to the middle pins in the front why did I think that was in the water cuz there’s water I got scared that was smoother than I thought I have problems with my pitching wedge we have a tumultuous relationship we don’t always get along so it’s nice to see when it’s
Smooth and when you hit smooth it feels like a pingpong ball 18 ft downhill you’ve seen me hit an 18f footer and sink it so I’m going to aim for the right inside Right man these roll all right can’t be mad at that what am I at now now I’m uphill just fine okay maybe a little to the right too much to the right if I aimed left oh okay that was just a bad read on my part so I deserve that bogey then I
Guess I spent so much of this morning putting and uh these screens are fast and they’re undulated really undulated so I’m having a hard time with my green reading which is always has been a problem of mine my misses are I hit to the left I top a lot of shots and I
Cannot read greens that was just a mess but it’s totally fine bogeys I’m not mad at Bogies this is a 470 yard par five pin straight can’t really do much except go as straight as you can it’s a little left I mean I always am it’s a fine spot so we’re still $2.99
Away I’m try my seven wood and see if I can do something beautiful just aiming for the pin but obviously not getting it weird lie I knew it okay I’m not the best at my seven wood unless I’m on a mat then it’s one of my favorite clubs but on any
Kind of real life lie it’s not the best I’m still 218 away I’m going to do my seven wood again give it another chance just make sure to really connect see what I can get here a nice lie this time so that is great love that for me that’s how I like
To hit it I don’t know about the direction but the hit felt nice off the face that’s what I want all the time which animal is making that noise I know it’s not the duck it’s like I don’t know what that is I saw these ducks grandparents I know their
Family I know their heritage AG uh I saw their grandparents uh yeah I like that seven wood shot a lot because this is a lot of walking so obviously went far it’s a little uphill I’m going to use my pitching wedge oh bad shot see I never deserve those when my bad
Shots work out and get me on the green and I feel so guilty cuz I didn’t deserve that I didn’t get under it not good but it worked out like feel bad like I feel like you remember in school when you didn’t do your assignment and then like class was
Cancelled that day snow day or something like you you didn’t do something for the deadline and then it works out doesn’t feel good I just hit my shin with my putter this is 25 uh of my feet away ow this 25-footers feel like 10f Footers because every time
I hit it’s like way too far oh my gosh how many three PLS am I going to do okay that’s bad this is a 289 yard par 4 just going to swing a ding oh to the right [Applause] whoa that’s not what I thought would happen just wondering why I went right I
Like I’ve not been right in a long long time oh I’m just right here missed the Fairway but I’m to on the right side of the cart path at least 117 to the front 130 it’s uphill but I’m still going to do my seven iron
I’ll find that darn it all did you hear how hard I 472 the Green Oh last time I did my wrong shot for that yardage so let’s see oh no I towed it but I’m on the green I hope no one came here except good Gulf oh
Jeez I’m on the green it’s rolling back moving the leaves is a lost call us cuz they’re all just going back in the way this is 23 ft away fall golf man that like my soft what all right that was a soft putt I hit it okay 289 par 4 downhill let’s [Applause]
Go don’t know where that ended up but I think it’ll be okay 82 to the front 99 to the middle this is a front pin taking my 48 degree oh it hit the tree it hit the tree branch but I think it saved it so it’s okay I hit it thin
What else is new that one was annoying because I felt I felt not right over the ball and I just kept going it’s always worth it to stop you don’t always have a little Branch to to save you so a little tip if you want to do fall golf with people
Like cuz I was just thinking in my head thank you for watching thank you for cameraman if you want to go fall golfing with people make sure that it’s people who you feel comfortable enough to have like bats in the cave because your nose will get runny you’ll be over your putts
And all that and it’s like leaking out of you so make sure you’re comfortable with your golf partner enough to have a little action I’m not chipping I’m going to putt even though there are some little pitch marks on here just give a little more oomph not much cuz man these
Greens are kicking my butt Today go okay 13-footer I could have kept the flag in but I don’t play flag in now I’m like scared to hit it all the other puts were super fast I was too scared I just end on a little double BG double BG to end the round okay I
Know the lighting is really bad but I want to make this as authentic as possible I just did the math and I scored 50 which is not amazing where’s the scorec card oh my goodness where is it I lost the scorecard oh it’s right here I have four
Three putts and one four putt and I Sil scored a 50 so my first time I played here on October 26th I scored a 68 on nine holes and today I trimmed 18 shots off of my score I didn’t want to film this later in better lighting and it be
Like staged I seriously saved 18 Strokes off my nine-hole score for my first time ever so it’s been just over a year and 18 Strokes I that’s a good Improvement I’m really excited I mean there were a lot of three but I’m really happy so I really appreciate you taking the time to
Watch this video thank you so much and um yeah I hope you weren’t expecting like par golf because that probably won’t come from me so this is it hi handicap I’m a 25 now thank you so much for watching and I will see you in my next video

Francesca, your yardages are looking good! I'm still working on getting my 9 to go 90 😭 Love these vlogs! It's so refreshing to watch a beginner golfer 🥰
I used to swing like that (super flat)
You're playing well, your iron swing is an easy improvement you can make though your back swing is very low
RE your putting practice and putting past the hole–I've never used that particular putting mat, but it looks like it's good at training for starting on a specific line (you rolled several of them straight to the trough), and for not leaving the ball short (since you have to get to the top of the rise to return your ball)…but it doesn't do much to teach you to not putt way past the hole. Looks like it still works fine if you hit the ball much harder than you need to (within reason…I'm sure you could hit the ball clean over the return trough if you hit hard enough). I'm gighting the opposite problem…I tend to think about putting the ball just hard enough to reach the hole, which means that a lot of the time, I'm end up being short of the hole. But my distance-control has improved a lot, as most of my putts that end up short are an easy putt to finish.
And, hey…nothing wrong with bogey golf. I've been playing for ten years (purely recreationally), and I still only occasionally break 100. Don't beat yourself up, keep working on developing a consistent swing, and work on your "self-talk"–you hit some great shots, so you know it can be done, but there were a lot of times you stepped up to the ball and talked about how much trouble you have with that particular shot…believe me, I know that's a recipe for screwing up the shot. Focus on how you WANT the shot to go and forget (as best you can) how the shot can go wrong…when you focus on what you don't want the ball to do, that's what it's going to do most of the time.
The most important part, you have down…have fun. A bad day of golf is better than a good day of work, they say, and I agree. Looking forward to watching your game improve!
