The reason why your handicap is higher than what you want it to be is…
You have too many double and triple bogeys on your scorecard. In this video i break down a round i played at the beautiful Bear Mountain Golf Resort on Vancouver Island. We can see what mistakes us as average golfers make, why we make them and how to eliminate the big numbers next time!

These Tips Will Eliminate Blow-Up Holes & Lower Your Handicap
Okay guys welcome back to long and left I’m doing a full 18 holes here at bare Mountain Golf Club we’re starting off with a par five 475 yards it’s very Gable my swing’s all over the place we got some changes going on but I still
Think I can hack it around and be right around that 70 78 number so that’s what I’m going for today I’m going to teach you guys how you can eliminate the blowup hes and get the double and triple Bogies off your scorecard so you can lower your
Handicap yeah I think I’m over it to be honest you might be I think you’ll be fine so I didn’t get back down into the Fairway I got kind of an awkward lie 230 yards I’m going three iron just going to try Chase one short of the green even if
You battle port ball striking a weak slice or a strong hook you can still avoid disaster with a few easy tips that’s perfect so okay 145 yards after a perfect layup going eight iron to that back pin and just get it on the green let’s learn from my mistakes in
This video and lower your handicap think that’s deep I think it may have checked all right little birdie chip for Tai good part of start thank you thank you full two 186 yards I got 6 iron kind of a daunting green so just get one on there and two
Putt we go right at it buckets that’s a dart baby what a shot let’s go how did that go in one under baby nice Bird good catch hold good catch okay guys hole three it’s a par four only 340 yard way downhill I’m just going laying up with a
Five iron this is my biggest mistake I just flushed my six iron on the last hole so I assumed I was going to flush my five iron I don’t know I hit that really really bad all right well this is just precautionary hitting a three iron as a
Provisional I didn’t think about my Miss hit and where it would end up you can’t allow yourself to forget about your bad shots swing with confidence but don’t be blind to the fact that golf is hard and you aren’t always going to stri it okay I got 136 full pitch and W
Chunk tied just way down there short of the green go keep going yeah good shot dude I thought there was more slope yeah it almost caught some more slope okay 380 yard par for I got hybrid would love to get a birdie back after that triple so just need a good t-shot
Best thing we can do do is forget the past and focus on the present focus on the task or shot at hand That’s So Perfect all right 165 downhill into wi I’m going eight iron when facing a downhill shot you need to choose the club that if you flush it you won’t go
Long what a shot sit down what a pot let’s go is that two birds already three three birds in the group already well yeah three for us that’s crazy okay another part four 357 yards not very long again so I’m going hybrid that Birdie on the last hole was
Huge to get me back to one Over get right get Right oh my God I think it’s fine that went to the absolute other side of the Fairway that ball is going to be ruined dude 125 Ys playing way up so I’m just going smoo smooth nine iron oh big hop big hop oh yeah now was it I’m probably going to have a really
Long putt that came out really dead all right tie from downtown get some lags TI stop Stop money huge that so good that is so big for the program woo one over still that’s not on the green least miss this was no easy chip to eliminate double act as if you’re lying zero and try and make par from there this will eliminate the double and keep the score card
Tidy yeah not bad that would been nice all right right two over okay 340 yards just going hybrid I don’t like this hole so Fairway would be lovely that’s good go a little bit for me I should have inside 15 so 140 yards a little nine iron I got not the
Prettiest lie here in the Fairway so just good contact go I didn’t hear anything I think you’re with me this is such an impossible shot for Tai like he’s standing above the flag the only objective is to get the ball on the green lofted clubs are a lot
Better out of thick and Tall Grass like this consider I’ll take it yeah I don’t think you could have done a whole lot better Tai tough one for his par here another bogey three over now all right 360 yard par 4 or forc layup only
Got about 220 till the crap so just a smooth hybrid cut cut cut don’t hit path I think I’m okay I think you are think you probably landed in that rough I hope so as long as it didn’t hit path yeah I know it didn’t okay then I’m good
I think I got about 120 yards very lucky to be right here I got full 50° I don’t know I don’t see it think it’s very simar you just left your putt short don’t be scared of the next one and Bash it 20t past the hole now visualize the
Ball coing up next to the cup and tap it in for bogy go damn it that’s a bad three put boogy I mean it was tough but jeez all right long tough part four here to finish off the B front nine I got driver only the second time I’ve hit
It this nine so just a smooth one now that’s exactly what we’re looking for that was a great shot did it hit that thing and go way left like the 150 steak I think so no way no I don’t know oh all right 160 yards full a iron great
Shot it go that’s Co nice putt that had more legs than I expected yeah back to three over baby all right 19 95 y par three to start off the back I’m three over I made three birdies on the front n so I’m pretty happy with that just going
A full four iron here try to get one on the green kick right kick right biger hop I was trying to sling one in there except bogey don’t try the hero shot and stick it to two feet when you’re just going to Duff it and be in the exact
Same position as you’re currently in I honestly just didn’t really feel good over that read didn’t know what way it was going but another bogey back to four over 340 yard par 4 I got driver downhill down win smooth one get it in play have a flip wedge
In so bad time for a Honda Get Lucky don’t think that’s the luck we’re looking for no I knew one was bound to come out at some point today okay well I had to take a drop on my point of entry into that tree cuz I tow hooked it um
Got 150 yard just a smooth eight iron don’t be mad after hitting it into the bush you’re going to do it a lot as a golfer get over it well I think I’m on the green so just try two putt for bogey now okay going to
Be tough to leave this one short very downhill oh no that’s beautiful get in turn oh my that was so nice that would have been the craziest part of my life dude little tap in bog wow Beauty all right guys part five way up the hill 450 yards got to be C
Playing close to 500 uh I got driver we need to go to Tempo town here Beauty I mean a little low on the face but it didn’t hook so I’m happy that’s perfect 185 yards left onto this par five but it’s playing up the hill so
Just a full four iron and hope we a good number get right deep I think it’s on the green that was a great strike I was just hoping it draw a little bit yeah all right Tai’s way off the back looks like he’s going to putt this for
Bird that’s not fair I mean I’ve made a lot of puts today so I can’t complain but I thought that was in the whole way me too all right we got a really tough par 4 here down the hill 440 yards but it’s really tight so I’m going hybrid
Just get it in the Fairway this hole does not suit my eye long par fours doesn’t mean that you need to hit driver the length of the hole should never determine your Club selection bunkers hazards and comfortability determines your Club yeah like it’s Fairway but I’m
Going to have a long ways in okay 215 yd downhill into wind just a full four iron I wasn’t comfortable hitting driver so I didn’t stop drying that’s cool nice shot that’s so bad Ty did that be just sto my ball I think so he helped get out of here get out of
Here he just helped you dude all right Ty coming back the other way how I thought you thought you aimed perfectly honestly yeah full 14 par three 145 yards this a smooth nine iron should be a good one why didn’t I draw from downtown Tai is probably the
Most high maintenance putter I’ve ever played with it’s got to go TI I feel like I’m hammering them big downhill for tie here another three putt and for bogy going to eat over now cuz I suck 530 y par five really tough I got a bunker about 260 which is what I’m going
For could that be any better no I mean it could be further that’s such a good shot but I’m so happy with that 245 left in I don’t have the horsepower to get there cuz it’s uphill into wind so just a hybrid try to cut it leave it a little
Short of the green and get up and down for bird have a little bit further in that why but in play not bad 60 yards 60° oh that just took the biggest hop right you deserved it man I was so excited to hit a good shot then be like
60° or 60 of vogi finest degrees but n that’s suck I thought there was more green on the right side than what was there I didn’t let that mistake go and it caused me to forget the golden rule of just getting the ball on the green okay put it in
Burger that’s the worst double bogey I’ve ever made in my life all right 167 yards uphill I got seven iron got to put it tight I need two birdies in the the last three holes to shoot 78 Dr it is a little bit set go in the hole I think that’s long I
Think so wow he’s surprised I’m huge no you’re not all right Ty’s definitely got a look at this we know he’s the chip in specialist man I wanted to be so bad I thought you were I didn’t think that was going to miss on the low side of me
Either oh there you go I thought I was going to out I did too full 17 par 4 424 y downhill got driver need one in play I was not hitting driver well and I should not have hit it here exactly what I said on whole 13 choose the club that will
Get you in play hit wow that was so unlucky I’m sorry baby C path sorry I didn’t mean to do that all right had to take a drop 162 y full nine iron downhill downwind another Miss green nice try bogey yeah all right final hole here at bare
Mountain currently 11 over par which I’m really not happy with um there’s been some good parts of the game and there’s been some bad parts but 18th hole par five 530 yards definitely getable so let’s see if we can make a big bird on the last hole biggest causes for double
And triple Bogies is repeating the same mistakes I should have hit hybrid here and just got myself in the Fairway okay we got eyes on it do we yeah all right I had to take a unplayable I got 264 just going to smash a hybrid and get short of
So as you can see I probably made four major mistakes today that really affected my score and even just eliminating one or two of those could have had me shooting in the 70s like I wanted to what a shot all right 60 yards try to get up and down for par
Go it’s not bad I didn’t think it was getting there me nether to finish tie hey still shot in 83 your lowest score ever 83 that means me want to Swan Dive down a flight of stairs there you go

Very enjoyable to watch. Jealous of your short game.
Our games are very similar… ive watched a few episodes and you have better chipping and putting which is why im a 9hdc. My tee shots and second shots play like a 5 but my chipping plays like a 12.
Nice vid. Thanks for not posting perfect rounds or your best rounds constantly.
Mental Brain farts from nowhere….. Super beautiful golf course and some classy shots/putts too. Love watching you play.
If I had your putting then I can save a lot of strokes. You’re also good with course management knowing when to hit hybrids off the tee.
as a fellow lefty i appreciate this content
I think short game is where it’s at
Arent those lost balls off the tee on 11 and 17 a 2-stroke penalty when you drop it where you play? Tight game otherwise
not under standing why your hitting a hybrids off the Tee box on 350 something yard par fours when its just a clean straight shot to the pin down hill even ,, just setting yourself up for longer second shot in to the green ,, second shot is always way harder then a Tee shot ,, and if your drivers not working why wouldn't u just use a 3w ,,, like i said not understanding the whole hybrid thing
I love the no bs pace of your videos. Just a man and his caddie bestie. I'm a shit lefty so it's nice to not have to translate everything, new sub. keep doing your thing boys I look forward to more.
Is this guy a better putter than Cam Smith? What am i watching? **edit – i made that comment after the front 9 but he can obviously roll it.
How to avoid double and triple bogeys…. be a single digit handicap.
I’ve commented before but I love it. My biggest mistakes are leaving myself too much to handle when I miss the green. That safe chip shot is what I lack every time. You bounce back so easily, something I have to get better at. So many rounds I could broken 80 but I just blew a few holes up.
Golf is easy to make a decent score (relative to your skill level) by playing conservatively but to score tour lowest you need to take a bit more risk. I guess the real skill is knowing when you can push and when you need to be patient.
3i from weeds? I’m sure you are a BA player but I would take short iron out of there as a avg player
The sky is beautiful
The foliage is beautiful
The course is beautiful
What's the course?
What's the region?
I am a 12 handy
76 is the best round in my bag..
I play alot of the Robert Trent Jones courses in the lower 48.
Zero firs on those courses, lol
Love playing that course. The mountain and the valley are gorgeous. I'd love to break 80 there.
