In the UK we are playing every single course every Sunday so make sure you do hit that subscribe button if you don’t want to miss it two Pros Texas scramble 100 courses what can we shoot let’s get to that first te drive straight up okay guys so Hall
Number one dunar Golf Club you’ll see we have a very strange start here and we do actually have a par five par five start you’ll see it’s really well bunkered around that driving area there’s a water hazard short of the green and to the left what can we show in this golf
Course guys get in the comments below are we going to beat the course record right Chris I’ll give you the honor par five thank you very much scr ramble what can we do 63 is the record why have you just asked I’ve just asked it wasn’t uh wasn’t for myself obviously
Nice is tell you what I’m I not bother 5 Hour swing there 5 hour drive swing that’s a great shot well done it’s not as cold as I make it look either everyone it’s a glorious day here in dumbar 17° slight breeze off the left you don’t get a better day than this
Is course record and [Laughter] KN out to the right it’s not the best that’s down second Chris might be taking yours and so guys you join us here at the Glorious dumbar golf club for the start of a brand new year and the start of a fantastic new series I can’t wait for
This we are playing some absolutely insane golf courses and putting quite a few miles on my car guys get in the comments below what can we score Texas scramble on this glorious golf course and we’ve both opted for a push me pull me number today huge thanks to the guys
At Tacomo and the guys at seed for supporting this series Chris how good is this going to be fantastic a good start we’ve got the weather we did think it was going to rain all day as it has done as we drove walk five hours but fantastic day to strike it off some
Fantastic T and you’ve hit the Fairway we’ve got par five par five opening here can we go Steven seal eal on the first two holes on screen now on screen now cost record 63 come on 62 inbound I’m very glad we’re not playing my opening t-shot cuz that wouldn’t have been ideal
So guys as we wait for this par five opening green to clear let’s have a very quick what’s in the bag for this series I’m using Tacomo 301 CB irons and as you can see the Tacomo scy forger 001 wedges Chris you’ve gone for the bladed irons
Which I can’t quite seem to strike that well and we’ve also gone for a seed golf ball in this series huge thanks to the guys at Tacoma and seed for sorting us out here Chris why have we gone for the seed sd02 golf ball four piece golf ball
It is their well one of their premium balls again plenty of balls on the Range which you can compare on the website which is in the link below but we’ve gone for this one because it’s the lowest ball fight we’ve got a little bit of Breeze out here not normal link
Conditions but we want the one that’s going to stay low stay out of the wind and be controllable absolutely so some of the other courses we are going to play in this series you will see us use different seed golf balls and for me guys I’m really looking forward to we
Are playing all sorts of kind of courses and it’s going to take us two years this is a huge challenge that we have undertaken and yes it is uh January at home it’s August here in Scotland and Chris has come looking like it’s January just order Manu winter stuff it’s not
Arrived yet I mean not that I need it for today but right it’s 220 is it yeah water left and water short oh for right oh my god oh that has literally just missed him hasn’t it it has he’s gone to find it I do apologize James
Shed enough for me to uh he was down that guy if to move that would have been a shocker to the start of the series wouldn’t it he just behind his d air is he going to go and I might wait for him now oh he’s putting something down what
A boy what a gentleman I’m going to let him get a little bit further up why does that put the fear of God into yeah I’m thinking just off that left hand bunker yeah when it come back downhill slope also a bit skinny that he’s up there though I’m
Just glad he’s that water sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit we’ve got away with that one on the first all the series just missed the bunker so what a start to the series we have Chris has nearly killed the guy on the hole in front of us I’ve
Nearly gone in one of the world’s big biggest deepest pot bunkers but we do have a bird chance if we can get up and down this first hole is playing slightly into the wind which means the second hole Place slightly downwind both of them are par fives wait till we cross
Over the wall guys for the fourth hole this is a stunning golf course it really really is I think it’s fair to say we’ve gotten away with that what’s that there is that the sun the sun is out right this is for Eagle do I me to
Go first let you go we’ll get the tea in fantastic condition here at D Bar we’re flag high in to thanks to both of us that was F gu I was correct the gentleman was French he said you could have uh just said you don’t like the French instead of hitting
Your golf ball at him aggressive that’s a lot quicker than the putting green was right sorry about that into a stay up go on oh what an effort Chris what an effort bird we’re on the move bir the first hole of the series okay second hole here at dunai
You can see we’ve got a heavily bunkered right hand side we have out of bound to the left another par five measuring 541 yds stroke index three so this is going to be no slouch can we make another Birdie on route to a 62 is Chris the trousers are off
Trousers are off sun’s out it’s always sunny in Scotland comment below that’s that’s it that’s over on the first Fairway it’s not a bad line in that well Struck it well haven’t played it before right I’m just going to try and hit a nice straight one here I think nothing crazy with movement
On it’s a fantastic looking home like that what a shot we’re Dove tailing at the moment Chris if we keep this up we might still be friends in the two years that we’re doing this series I don’t know okay so teamwork making the DreamWork here at Dumar huge shout out
To the guys in the Pro Shop who lenters the push me pull me this is making it a dream Chris isn’t it it is they said it absolutely threw it down this morning but you wouldn’t be able to tell it was uh was even any bad weather you wouldn’t
And the Tacomo pencil bags fitting on there absolutely wonderfully time to uh make another birdie and if there’s one thing I like at the start of the year it is a drive right next to that Center Line yes please look at that it’s like it’s on
It’s like it’s a electric one just stop there mate thank you got 230 230 downwind I’m just going to a four right I think Flags back right I’m just going to try and Chase it up some kind of shout is it sh get in the hole I think
Ah sh that’s actually okay cuz we can chip across no that’s probably just short or flag high is it I’ll tell you what watch this work keep moving round go on is an extreme link shot I wasn’t too sure about your turfing traction there compared to mine I don’t think I found
The turf yet to be honest you want the CBS maybe okay both slightly short there although mine is up on the left hand side and we can play a nice bump and run in here to that back right flag we don’t need to worry about the ball spinning
Too much with the sky forg your wedge I’m going to go 52 let’s try and play a nice low one in under that little bit of breeze You’re Going 52 or you’re going 56 I’ve got 56 tell you what go on probably GED up a little bit too much
And that’s interesting with this seed ball it is the one with the most green size spin the four piece ball James certainly got it it’s a bit of a dubious knee drop it was right positive nice kicking oh stay there oh stay there oh stay there see yeah well it was
Positive your partner’s got you back that is Lynch Golf mate run off does anybody else ever do that when the player takes a scramble put it in the mates divot and then you can’t move it go that’s run away that’s run onto the car park we just went over the Green
Incredible right birdie put a little bit longer than the birdie put we had on the opening hole great start power five power five really gives you a chance to get your store card going Flags out oh dear how embarrassing I scared myself on the first one one job that’s the mate
This to keep alive the 100% birdie ratio in the series might take some doing to continue that for the whole two years but 100 courses Chris firm well I have to give it a go okay third hole the first par three measuring 173 yards we have the clubhouse on the
Left approach up on the right and a gorgeous view behind us as you can see Chris let’s send it away tiny bit left looking like bunker oh it’s cover the bunker that’s going to be a very it’s come back round that’s just the back of the green try to
Keep it out of the breeze the key to good scores today will be avoid the bunkers right quite an anxiety inducing t- shot this isn’t it there’s a lot of people around comat not towards that bunker well the key to scoring today is avoiding the bunkers and I think we’ve just found
One there’s a reason why we’re not taking this do you want to explain what it is Chris there’s a clubhouse or cars directly behind the flag so we’re going to go for safety first mine is just back here just rolled into the bunker a nice short sided shot a little bit of green
To work with so not too bad before we go through there some shells in here James shells right 5 side what have you got you 60 I’ve got 60 I’m going to see how yours goes I can probably more attack him with the 56 nice that’s a gorgeous golf shot
Chris one thing I like about these wedges there loads of bounce on there to get nice and uh acute with those isn’t they plenty of Bounce I’m going to go with that 12 de bounds please coming in right I’ll grab the rake for after bunker wizard first of the
Year a really good job we didn’t take yours had a lot of sped cuz that would have been in the car not my best stuff once James fetches his I’ll uh give this a roll well I got the green well you did you’re right what a three that is always
Thought I might have even brought a fish pump but oh no 543 start right now on to one of my favorite holes on the golf course the fourth T and as soon as you get through this wall you see just how special this place really is oh yeah okay fourth hole one
Of my favorite holes on this gorgeous golf course there is absolutely nothing for left and you don’t want to go over that wall on the right that is out of bounds it’s only measuring 353 yards the green is well bunkered at the front Chris over to you I’m going to
Start it down the left towards the sea but not out to sea Famous Last Words try and get this fading back nice yeah fed around I’m going to go more tight to the Ocean Crest right is it an ocean or is it a sea get in the comments
Below I see the sea what will it be it’ll be the will it be the I don’t know it’s the opposite to the Arctic isn’t it to the Atlantic stay there is it coming that’s all right left side pull opposit guys I played with danger a
Little bit too much there Chris was in play but over on that right hand inside this is what we have left in what a gorgeous place this is right Christopher we have wind off left and we have 112 yards he played with the water the oh yours go right and
I thought I knew it was out of bounds right I didn’t think I’d come close to the water I’m just going to chip a nice wedge in here try and keep it out the wind well above feet slightly so don’t want to get too cute you got a pitching wedge as well yeah
Nice very nice oh that could be lovely couldn’t it hopefully not you div it this time nice come on when bring it back bring it back yeah nice just that left side you can see mine’s actually rolled down to the right hand side but flag High two
Pretty good golf shots there let’s see which one we end up taking let see we can get back on the birdie train we need to okay I think we might well be taking my ball there Chris little uphill put for birdie great sure got it just outside right I
Think I hope you zoomed in on that one another one right that had a proper look didn’t it as well like on the way past that was for birning by myself as well ah you want it out now in go on then oh it’s the same part great effort but that is another
Par and after a hot start we remain just solemn one on pa okay second PA three of the 18 holes do Hill the fifth hole 147 yds you can see it’s a very very very narrow green what can we do into this par three we need to make some
Birdes nice stay there stay there the wind’s just taking it a bit oh just to that right hand side I’m going to go a little chippy 99 here with the CBS try and keep that under the wind it’s funny isn’t it Chris because we chose the sd2 ball because it’s a link
Course we’re in the car thinking oh it’s not that windy we might be okay with maybe sd5 or an sdx one then we get out here and it is actually quite windy so it is it should be the ball unfortunately there just leaked it a little bit to the right tricky par
Threes to start with come on just going to name that left side come back come on come on that’s back left of the green Struck it well not bad don’t think we’ll play that one no option two is not much better Chris I thought M was a bit
Better than this I’m just glad this isn’t a bunker to be honest I thought it was going to be a bunker I’m want to go a little 60° wedge here try and spin it in right downwind which doesn’t help checked yeah I play that quite nicely actually off pill put coming back
Not bad who to you yeah I really enjoyed that got underneath it nicely you’ll see a nice high CG in that wedge which I do quite like plenty of Bounce Chris is getting a nice line for his putt opting for the very link style effort it is up
And how we ended up here by the way I don’t know both pin High narrow green that’s what we’re blaming looks excellent for distance yeah great shot that taking off up the slope good shot well it’s a battle it’s not uh watch in it not an easy task
This we got outside right look pretty straight oh another one how do you want it I’ll little it out please out left half wants to sneak right of always looky we didn’t want go with that your right to left ra NE that that been solid another par okay so sixth hole
Here at dumball link these are the narrowest stretch of holes on the golf course this is 386 yard bunkers in your driving distance from the left hand side OB over the wall on the right and if that wasn’t hard enough we have a nice little water hazard running just short
Of the green this needs your full attention are we all right with them AR that Please be aware of golf is walking please be Ure they’re aware you’re hitting it is you B golf for St player when it’s safe to do so I don’t think it’s safe no I won’t
Say that’s safe either right Chris is going with a bladed four iron down this 400 yard stroke index one strange choice but yeah not bad stay there lovely ball flight that I’m going to go big dog although those women are right in the way for for a Robinson 4
Left shout they are they don’t know what’s coming after a after a 5 hour drive those women I don’t know what to do cuz if at this left it’s literally there at about 250 yards H know trying to turn it off the wall yeah and if it’s gone it’s
Gone how’s that solid shot Drive of the week that oh that’s what I need just two old deers still there to make sure I don’t turn the hands over did you a pearl yeah big drive down the center there from Robinson absolutely pumped that one we
Need to get things going here I feel like we’re having the time of our lives we’re not quite scoring for the time of our lives either this is probably one of the best days you’re going to get D Bar in as well we need to get something
Going although we are into the wind on this front nine the back nine is going to play downwind is that going to have a huge effect on our scores and where we post on the leaderboard um spoiler we’re going to be number one anyway cuz this
Is the first video we didn’t need to worry about the old deers Chris did we we did not straight up the middle 20 iing just kind of middle of the green but try and get the right distance straight at the fly let’s go aggressive all I’ve got a nine it’s aggressive come
On something in my eye it’s middle of the Green Oh L an eye we’ll take that right I’ve managed to get his middle of the green there that is a put but I won’t say it’s a chance no I’m going to change club going up to an
Eight IR yeah I think it’s windier than we giv it credit for it is oh be good stay there yeah probably similar to mine actually right Chris yours are the best of i w say a bad Bunch because it’s two greens in your egg but an average Bunch this is what we have
For our birdie attempt what you going with outside the right uphill go on get there it’s a perfect line it was a great roll terrible Pace Roll come on the had shout but there’s Gentleman on that te just about to see off I don’t want to off but that’s too
Under get in Chris may or may not have given me a little lesson on the putting green and that’s paid off 200 under we make moves onward okay guys seventh hole slight dog leg to the right again we have out of bounds to the right hand side this go of
Course is not your friend if you are struggling hitting it to the right also well bunkered to the left what can we score on this Par Four we are now two under P right I’m going to go back to driver before dog before I plan when it work I
Think this front 9 into the wind you just have to get down there as far as possible get this seed sd02 are flying that’s either perfect or over the wall I did look at the shape on my uh course plan and it seemed to move quite a lot
I’m going to go a tiny bit left of that just in case I think I’m being optimistic I guess it’s safe that is left of it chalk and cheese I can see it though we’ll take it linksy shot well Chris you was all right but only just only just
903 to that flag flag looks like it’s in the middle of the green gorgeous setting get into comos you can obviously with the sky forward your wedges go with a 48° I’ve got the set stock pitching wedge from the MBS person it’s just a chippy one to
Land about 80 yards this isn’t it it is just to the left and then release down nice just sit then just sit then I reckon that’s going to be all right a little bit long but a good line could be good be good looks very good I’ll tell you
What we’ll have that well I thought mine was good but it’s actually short Chris’s has left us a nice uphill put of about 12 to 15 ft what a gorgeous view we have of the lighthouse in the background we don’t need the rain shelter today and
You know it’s a proper golf club nice dog ball when you can bring your dog Along come on Chris to get to 300 plenty of golf left to be played oh it’s a big swinger it did it went L that didn’t it a big swing plenty of Swing yeah probably 3 fet stay
Up oh like you not yours in that line was good it was just too pacy Big Five Big Five what a we’ll go with yours cuz yours is just a bit more all right straight up I’d rather be aggressive though than uh true we’ve got to give it a go when
We got an easy straightforward eighth hole almost at the turn again we have out of bound to the right although that shouldn’t come in play the bunkers are perfectly positioned for a driver and we have 370 Ys again into the wind with two little pot bunkers just short of the green over to Ukis nice low one cut it up yeah it’s just miss the bunker isn’t it just yeah opens up the PIN for a bit of a fake in cracking shot yep farway found right got away with mine just past the bunker we’re going to have an interesting shot into a back right flag
What we talking Chris 115 so very similar numbers to the last couple of holes I’m going to hit a little nine again I know it’s not exactly the number but I didn’t quite get there last time so if hit the same shot struck nicely into that wind just cut into that right
Flag talking a fantastic game like that that’s a shot if it’s there oh she’s there Chris don’t worry about that son is such a nice lyy shot there and that’s what both these 301 CBS and the seed sd02 allows you to do really bring that flight down and control it
Into the wind gorgeous shot that oh be better though oh the wind’s taking that a bit cut in yeah long with the bunker perfect distance terrible Direction okay this is a huge chance to get to 3 under going into the back nine right 200 look to get to
Three cup outside right correct can I have the flag out Chris oh you certainly can and then just pick this out the hole for us Ah that’s a birdie by myself I was going to say you should introduce a rule where if someone has a birdie by thems
The other person buys the beer that night it’s not a good deal for me I’m out what a hole this is to finish the front nine a 532 y par five not many bunkers but a blind t-shot this looks like a beast Chris can we get the first Steven cigal of the
T is it straight does it go right does it go left James uh just over the post mate just over the post right nice bit bottomy but that’ll be fine not the finest display so far say guys really enjoying the durability of this ball played bunker shots played all
Sorts of iron shots it’s still looking like brand new is that the kiss of death Chris yeah it’s been a great ball everybody been a great ball say goodbye to the seed first seed of the tour no it’s not quite over the marker but it was struck well
Enough you hear that just empty off behind no idea well I’ll tell you what guys I’m there fearing the worst not only does it live on I think that is absolutely perfect down there come on i’ keep saying how good the view is but people will get bored of hearing it
Won’t they the Scottish summer is here first of August 279 don’t think we’re going to get there are we I’m just going to chip a little four down there trying to leave us about 80 are you happy with 80 yeah sh stay there yep three wood five wood oh one of
Those might as well go for it I suppose stay there don’t know it FLIR well it’s flirting with the right roof it’s not looking good over that way but in better news I wanted to leave is 80 and we have a grand total 85 not bad that we’ll take a bit
Of that I’m still going to go a little pitching wedge keep it down under that wind any look no 85 no look new ball required still make birdie here Chris can be 4 under going in to the back I think we’ve done all right here as well
We’ve we’ve not made any mistakes which out into the wind obviously Links Golf it should be the harder nine essentially sit sit sit sit tell you are pretty good but it ran on didn’t it help if I clean them m m a little bit on the
Down slope actually new ball in play for Christopher new balls please ball plenty of spin nice be good be good yeah that’s two good goes it I’m not sure which will be closest but I think my fresh one right two very good approaches in there I’m going to I’m going to say it
Is yours though Chris yours an uphill putt yeah two good effort what we saying saying just outside the left how would you like it in in big big Advocate oh he’s got it oh my Lord I’ve never seen as many over the edge over the edge and far away right I mean you
Know what this is for Chris for a birdie by yourself another one can I have it out please what back to back this is for a couple of pints tonight in the what’s the PO called the horny Badger it’s not called that now it’s called something
The badger in Gan name the puing Gan with badger in the name I was too bu you thinking about the badger wasn’t it you were Tapper in 300 through nine not a bad St Chris I don’t think we’re doing too bad I think we can get a couple of birdies going on that
Bat nine downwind yeah one more into the breeze and then we’re downwind coming home but yes big thanks to Tacomo and Seed again two budget Brands you would say that could save you money and you could get out here and play Great Value golf courses yeah and one of the things
I like about them as well is you get loads of different varieties of golf ball loads of different varieties of golf club for your budget for your ability and for everything that you need right onto the back nine it’s backing up a little bit we’ve got a gorgeous par
Three to kick things off okay we kick off the back nine with a par three no Chris that doesn’t say shelling it is called shiing 20 two yards bunkers at the front of the green and you can see a historic building over to the left this is this looks difficult
Chris oh be good come on that looks delightful can we kick off the front nine like the back nine the back nine like the front nine you know what I mean chis you better believe it I’ve got a little Tacomo 3014 iron CB try and trap it a little and just chase
Her in like that shot it bounces straight oh left flag I though I think it stops stop lovely ball FL that great shot Chris flag high that one that is a birdie put mine’s just at the back of the green looking like we’ll take your shot right severely downhill birdie
Attempt to get in the twos Club I always wonder what buildings like this used to be I absolutely love the fact that they are still standing must have been Stables or could have Farmhouse I’ll take it if I put you off say it’s downhill how do you feel I thought that
Was a birdie with my own ball a pain in the badger pain in the badger do you want to mark that cuz I’ll just have a go at this there’s the PA he got the chance I’ll let you tap it in for the glory lovely roll that you can see that
Sd2 logo went and over end there and that is a part kickoff the back nine let’s do this okay we Now flip things over for the 11th hole we are downwind we have the ocean down the right hand side as you can see 460 yards this is
Going to play hopefully a little bit shorter than that but bunkers right at the perfect driving distance on that right and left side par five let’s see if we can uh try and sneak an eagle here so it certainly shows it par five Par Four I believe is it oh it’s a par
Four oh you can certainly see that this motor I was going to say this must be the normal wind yeah Par Four wow because we didn’t have a par four really over 400 yards on the front nine is we this is 100 yards longer than probably
Most of the par fours on that front line that’s a big hit though that’ll make it a bit shorter that’s the best Drive of the day it’s about time I’m going to go a bit further right than that hopefully yeah it’s a bit on the left hand side just
Over that right hand bunker I think so on a string Center stride oh I tell you what who is this man I’ll just be up here Chris hit middle boom right that’s 150 170 uphill downwind although playing 171 with slope so I’m just going to chip a
Six me too even when you’re downwind you want to keep it under the wind don’t you oh I’ve not put my breake on oh dear run away right should I go middle and then you can maybe draw One In Dove tailing oh that is not middle
Sorry it’s uh on the green a long way from Ft away from the flag below your feet I didn’t realize until impact solid def would work I don’t know on the gol’s on oh that’s better that’s really good hold that line now I think that’s a great shot it
Looked good it felt good it’s about time it’s only took us 12 holes right guys Chris has saved me there there’s no way I’ve caught that there’s no way I wanted to be playing this shot great shot amazing what difference that wind makes yeah I mean 460 a driver a good
Driver from you uh and a 69 is not bad at all from there is it could have probably been a seven I’m saying could have been a seven you flag High I don’t know why I’m even talking to be honest but go on hold that line oh another one
How many of them got it first camera boot of the series that as well it’s a good start cup outside the left and I said right another one and another one cup outside the left yeah might go a little bit more but less Pace all right let’s see
It like that get in I’ll give you that that was a cracking P that was Tiger I mean I didn’t think it was getting there but just that seed logo going end over end you’re welcome didn’t think it would get in there 12th hole what a gorgeous setting
For a t- box by the way this is another par for 460 Ys again we birded the last one we did oh no I’ve had a problem I’m on a slope got your brake on no right very similar hole from the last hole 460 yards par 4 this is stroke
Index 2 again we have the ocean out to the right but it shouldn’t really come into play no real bunkers to speak of until you get further up there so let’s try and boom it down there and see if we can make another birdie to get five under
Par we’ll let the captain lead us off I mean you I don’t know how you C him but it’s how it’s turned out so nice that I might even not bother that’s unreal downwind you’re an absolute Beast aren’t you in the slot still towards the top as the chap
Said behind the clubhouse who recognized Chris he’s going to feather it todaya took him to the Back N but he is doing with the Tacomo 301 MBS always gone after that one folks I have an right actually but I’m Hing it’s not a seed down we’ll find it well there’s me
Saying the water shouldn’t come into play um there’s one here have you got yours no mine’s got the two dots on it mine’s a four that’s mine with the dots on yours was a better line wasn’t it yeah have you got it no sign yet well
We’ both played with the water there in fairness mine must have hit that roof cuz you put 60 yards on me I mean I thought it was a better line than this but and that’s why ladies and gents you should always identify your golf ball we got 1 three five down Breeze big
Drive that’s like 330 yd Drive pitching wedge total different nine this although the next hole looks like it’s into back to what we know any seals oh be good it’s the perfect line oh what a shot oh I could get a birdie birdie with my own ball that’s a pain in the horny
Bad if you do my friend that’s what dreams are made of in all seriousness guys we don’t know what this Pub’s called anybody know hor Badger the pub in Gan or Gan is called that has badger in the name is it the boning [Laughter] Badger lost
It it’s a good shot as well it’s all over it that’s just two good golf shots isn’t it good shot right Chris I’m going to leave my putter in the bag cuz I don’t think even you can uh miss that great stoppage and distance control there with the seed
St02 even being downwind you can see that lower launching Ball’s got plenty of stoppage yeah it does say Obviously flattish flattest Flight of the balls obviously but again it does say most been around the edge of the green there you go the line her up make sure this is to get to
Five oh is it lost count and that is birded on two 460 y holes in a row so 13th hole Par Four just 377 but we are now back into the wind it is becoming very obvious this is how this golf course is supposed to be
Played into the wind we just want to show that carries around 200 here try and get past those bunkers at 200 yards Cris take it away nice see is it worth a shout that no no yeah great shot oh that’s a link shot that is a
Combination of a lovely iron and a low flight ball in it oh it’s a chaser Perfection so guys which one would you take here both in the Fairway Chris is a little bit further on the right but I personally think that this one with the
Two dots on just opens it up a little bit better to that flag would you concer the ball 20 Ys further not a little bit further but we’ll bring it all the way back here 180 6 iron I think it should be able to run down shouldn’t it yeah is he gone
He’s up on that tea isn’t he he’s up on the te you are free to go you know I’ve just realized where we are cuz I thought that water station was like all the way down there 13th hole you got six I have it’s leaking a bit
Right finest no struggled with that one tried to play similar shot as I did off the te this looks better though bird here gets us three in a row and six under that’s a great shot well done now this is why you have to love Link’s golf I’ve got no idea how that’s
Happened but those two shots equally as good as each other must have landed there and kind of kicked in that is another birdie opportunity and these things have been a godsend today haven’t they CR put your brake on brake on just uh make sure it doesn’t roll away
Who’s this who’s Chris seed one so it is you is it the four with the two I tell you what this is for a birdie on his own you know what that means Chris I don’t know how on Earth iest have no idea how that’s finished there right
There outside right for tenants in the badger tenants in the bger what a read I me that is six under par that is three birdies in a row and that is 2 for me in the horny vager come on press UPS sit ups okay 14th hole we are now back
Downwind we have a 432 yard par four stroke index 14 Millstone Den bunkers again at the perfect driving distance unless you absolutely nuke one and then those second lot of bunkers May well come into play We are on a streak of three birdies in a row let’s take
Another one and make it four we’re thinking it might not even be driver here let’s just try and nuke some four down there see what we have left nice those bunkers are just perfectly placed aren’t they they are and that that’s the center line ball going up to the 150 marker actually
Should I just smash driver and hope for the best why not again a great flight on there again a good combination of a low flat golf ball and a bladed iron not down wind dra I can almost go like at him where that guy is I think so with a
Draw nothing finer than a blade I think it’s gone that’s the line I think I don’t know if that’s too far right I’ve bailed out of that sit no it’s going to be in play is it it’s in the Fairway it wasn’t a good hit we’ll take it it plays oh it plays
Fantastic 4 here but we will take james’ Drive which is a lot closer 138 playing 135 it’s just a nice little wedge isn’t it I just need the camera now James oh well it’s a yeah to pretty W like we did on the 12 hole would be ideal 6 under
This a bird here for four in a row I to go seven I should probably clean that but you’d have thought you would but want to put you out I’ll do won’t it be the ball right middle of the green wind might bring it back if it doesn’t we’re okay I’ve pulled
It oh James he’s pulled it that is a disaster that been on know we’ve played out a bunker I played a fantastic bunker shot that was not middle of the green J James yeah You’ you almost had to bail that because of me oh I tell you what though that’s
Actually coming a bit better than what I thought good shot in the circumstances unbelievable slate in the shot right good job Chris played that one because I wouldn’t have fancied that one I mean you probably fancy getting up and down but it’s not a birdie chance is it right
Downhill we probably need to be uh not tentative but we need to just think about this one tentative but it is for four birdies in a row go on go on go oh he’s got it he must have oh stop it aians as well is that on your own oh there we go
Oh it’s not on your own it with my drive no we should have took my iron You didn’t mark the ball actually a good job it went in oh never in doubt ultimate camera shot here this is just a man at one with nature it is a stunning place
To kick off the series isn’t it it is fantastic course so far absolutely stunning Golf Course 15th hole 338 yards down wind this is not a driver unless unless you’re trying to get close to it to be brutally honest but that bunker will come into play around 290 yards I
Think we want to poke one down here and hopefully put ourselves in position to try and make another birdie in a row and to get to eight under par Chris with the Stinger for in yeah nice shot not quite a stinger but it’ll play again this isn’t a shot
That you would take driv normally because Chris is in play I’m just going to send it at the flag when he gets down there a little bit further he’s passed it I’m not going to carry it 300 am I no James smothered it into the wispy FES skue that is poor
Well Chris yours wasn’t as safe as we did anticipate it’s a good job uh well I don’t know I haven’t gone f Man actually I’m going to get a fresh one out of my bag I will go and have a look however but that’s very very
Close on the edge of glory you could say not ideal right the camera is in the ocean we’ve got 120 down in Chris has got the 52 Sky forg and I’ve got a brand new SD 2 out oh stay right stay right oh dear I mean it was perfect distance but
It was a bit of a lie I might just shout four now I mean it’s not the best I mean it was well chunked the ball was like massively above a feet wasn’t it yeah I think it’s straight at it it’s a bit left to right at the start then he’s
Played a lovely shot the guy in front of us and then right to left at the end and the seniors behind us have showed us how to play all cuz smash driver down the Fairway smashed the driver down there every a chance I mean it’s a good
Job that hit the hole isn’t it I mean it was going a long way past fanc it halfway to for sh it goes the other way goes the other way all good things come to an end that’s a par Chris not the end of the world still seven under the par 16th we
Are on the Homewood straight now as you can see two bunkers well shy of the green there is the estr over to the right this is a gorgeous looking par three measuring at 163 to the middle this is downwind off left nice be the number just short by look at that will
We see a hole in one in this series well if you do it’ll be a first for me that’s a good shot perfect line cut yes should be flag high that shouldn’t it right so Chris’s just short right mine flag High left this is a chance although it’s a it’s a sloping
Green towards that flag can we we make a two and get to eight under par guys we are so close we need two more birdies to tie the course Rec up we need to birdy these closing three holes to break it I’d be happy with 65 at all these CS remember this is
Going into the leaderboard so make sure you do stay tuned every Sunday see how we get on at these 100 courses again good Landing angle there and spin rate with the seed that was downwind the exact yardage I wanted and uh stopped rather well pretty good we got a te I
Have it’s got to move off right hasn’t it with that Ridge just off right downhill ball outside flag actually leaning that way as well so wonky carrots should help us if uh we favor the right side of the cup comment below who buys wonky carrots I’ve blocked that Chris power block
Yeah it’s a much better line has he got the pace oh has he ever in that right side never in down eight deep how dare you this is turning into a dream start for this series 17 pole just 338 yards this is playing down with wind but this
Is full of trouble you’ll see there is a water Ravine Just sh of the green and there’s also bunkers at a layup yardage this is no mean feet and uh this man is tired of hole in puts right really well thought out hole here we’re both going to clip iron down
And just leave a nice yardage inin to try and get to 9 under that is a great shot lovely high ball flight with those blades that one high use the wind and a good angle in see there’s no there’s no that water hazard just means there’s no point hitting driver doesn’t
It no point get it in play yet to nine social well there’s no point walking over to the left is they when you’re there oh back next to each other right very friendly t- shots there I think Chris may have just done me with his 4
In have you 20 yards 20 yeah and you you can see we’ve got a back flag you don’t want any more in than this really with that kind of water hazard at the front let try and make them end for those last horrible shots well they were right
Distance if we’ have hit them right we hit them right we hit them right with a square Club face it have been brilliant unfortunately we did none of the above uh I’m just going to chip like a pitching W to try and get 100 yard shot
And then release out you first is it it is I’m going to go 52 SC for you boys are out cutting 52 Sky they are AR they overtime must be on double hours must be people out early doors right hold that line be good oh Chris that stopped on a dime as
Well Sky forger water a shot I’m going to play it slightly different I’m going to try and keep it low pulled it again you know I knew I didn’t have to worry about that where you are that’s for one in the badger as well again good stopping power there
With the sky forger wedge and the sd2 ball yeah pitch there so it just shows you it doesn’t have to be premium again these are premium components a your themee cover a four piece ball Tacomo Forge wedges again just because they’re not expensive doesn’t mean they’re not going to perform
Hopefully for own ball burd oh Chris no Badger for you it’s another one how many have I missed outside left outside left I missed another one to the right the same exactly same you’ve just watched Mine James that is absolutely rubbish sorry mate come on don’t make me pull thank you very
Much okay guys and we finish on the 18th hole par 4 435 yards this is looking like an absolute Beast out of bounds over the wall on the right and a bunker in play at 260 if you were to hit it ever a slightly left Chris over to you
At the pro shot yeah bird for 9 under par set all out nice didn’t fade but SA can see it bounding down there so we’ll take it all day I think that’s perfect right off should be a good angle in yeah long as it don’t kick towards the
Wall right my ball just on a hanging lie here on the 18th down near the wall thought it was a better line but it wasn’t so we’re going to go with Chris’s up on the left up there right Chris I don’t know how yours has missed this
Bunker but it has lookss like good line in 172 downwind a I what this feels weird people cutting grass at this time it does actually green keepers have priority shall I go uh depend how confident you are I guess be the number be the number go a
Bit oh needs to go a touch go on stays there that’ be all right chased up not the best coming back down the touch I’ve got seven are we saying that’s about right perfect he’s just not safe there that’s Prime box yeah right now turn it
Over all right about you now pin high right guys looks like we’re taking mine on the last it is flag High just carried that bun credit fancy taking that lad out who’s getting the course ready for tomorrow crazy that they’re obviously that busy here that they do prep at this
Time of night spraying I’m going to finish finish with a sky forger 56 little bump 56 little bump and run get some nip on it yes please show us the magic then four piece ball sd02 forged wedge this is together is what 900 so this is to shoot
The course record this is for 73 63 73 I you did 73 on Grand it’s disappointing after that uh previous hold yeah we should have hold that really and we would this would be for a course record for it do you see the that straight behind
The hole good shot thank you sir Chris op in for the more percentage approach now low right guys we’ll finish this off and this is to kick things off on the series 800 where will be on this list that James is going to put on the screen

Love these sort of videos!
No, you don't beat the course record.
Does anybody else think Chris is like the Carl pilkington of the golf world
Did you guys get the idea from busta jack golf where they played a round in 50 states
I love this series but you are playing a scramble, why does Chris do a drop procedure to put his ball in play? Just place it and go on.
Going to love this series. I bought Seed golf balls last year on your recommendation. I bought the SD-2 and the SD-5. I like the SD-5 a bit better, but both preform as good or better than the Zstar I did use.
ocean, sea….no matter it’s still FORE LEFT!!!
What a great challenge. Great course too. Known as Sunny Dunny (probably in the summer). We played there a few years ago on the best day weather wise. Very friendly too. Highly recommend it. Have a great series.
Great idea for a series , I’ve played a number of the top 100 so will watch with interest. Perfect Sunday viewing.
The BONNIE Badger. Owned by Tom Kitchen. Fabulous food but not cheap. Gullane, great place to be.
James, you are on the river Firth of Forth, meets the North Sea with the estuary close to Dunbar. Enjoy the series 👍
Hi James and Chris are you playing york or fulford golf club would love to come watch you guys hit a few around my local courses
This is going to be an epic series with you two. Be interesting to know who your club and ball sponsors are though as not quite sure you mentioned it enough 😉🤣
Looks amazing. looking forward to the series
Great start to the series, looking forward to seeing more content.
What a fantastic looking Golf Course
love these course vlogs – excellent idea for 2024!
Great round on what looks like a lovely course. I’d love to know what gear you were using to go so low. It’s a shame you didn’t mention it 🤣
Y`all need to make a deal with Takomo {spelling} to allow us to oder a set through you. I am beginning to want them, but not the blades. Anyway, this will be fun>
Some commitment this , especially at a weekend away from family ha ha
It's the North Sea 🙂
Love this idea looking forward to the series 👍🏻🏌🏻♂️
Like the video but it’s the North Sea and not the ocean😊
Looking forward to this series boys.
Looking forward to this!!!
Hopefully you guys use the Horny Badger as motivation for the entirety of the next two years.
Dunbar is a fantastic course. Been lucky enough to play it quite regularly. Real, honest test of golf. Loving the idea of this new series boys.
Too many ads these days 😢
Stunning course; it’s on the list for my Scotland golf trip when I turn 50 in a year or 2. And I’ll be visiting the horny badger (Or was it bouncing badger, I can’t remember).
By the way, I think Chris had 5(!) lip outs, and James 4…
That amazing round could’ve been even better.
But I thoroughly enjoyed that. More than any PGA or Liv tournaments the past few years. Chris’s sarcasm cracks me up by the way.
Can’t wait for the next installment.
This series will be EPIC I'm loving it from the start! 🐊🇺🇸
Wait until you play my home course of North Berwick, the West Links.
History, fun, quirkiness, and no pushover.
Can u let me know wen you come to Newbiggin golf club, I’ll make sure you have a great welcome
Think I've got the message, you're playing Tacoma clubs and Seed balls😀
That’s a very demanding schedule
Amazing Course some real picture holes on the back 👍🏻👍🏻
Something else to look forward to on a Sunday. Excellent content as always
What a great course! Well played as well! Looking forward to the rest of the courses!
Can’t wait for this series. Should be great viewing! Confused as to when this one was filmed? Either a while ago or you are mad for wearing shorts in January! 😅
