Just happened to come accross this , was in Melbourne and Portsea last week. Played this course back in 1993! I think. Is this the Robert Trent Jones Junior designed course? The best golf course I ever played in without a doubt, 7th hole was unforgetable !. Scored triple digits at the time but didnt care it was just so beautiful, scenary and the course design, fairways are like greens in other courses, bunkers cut into the fairways and greens so immaculately. Great content Ron, camera work gave a good sense and feel for the course. I subscribed. Keep it up. Another old man subscribing…unfortunately for you….
Good stuff Ron, quirky no nonsense golf and aussie humor to boot. My first video watching you and may i say the first you tube golfer i have seen who lays the flag stick down as i do, gently using the putter. I approve. We can hang out.
I cant believe how lucky you were with the wind, the average day down there is a 2-3 club wind. Ive played there when we've had to hit 2-3 irons into number 7 from the back tee. Breaking 80 on those days is like shooting 63 anywhere else lol! Its one of if not the best course Ive ever played, and its not alone in that part of the world…
Some great golf there what’s your handicap +? I was just in Melbourne and seems average joking fee is 10k and look what you get compared to Sydney, pretty impressive royal Melbourne the Victorian and Sandringham so close and Yarra Yarra not far, amazing and Sandringham is public and it’s mint ❤
Quick Question: Why do people use range finders when you can use like i have – Garmin S60 and its all on your watch? It keeps score and all sorts of other crazy useful data. And you cant leave it in your cart. I dont get it.
What a Blast to discover Ron playing this amazing course. Welcome to my golf world. Imagine now walking the course in windy conditions!! Amazing content mate
Had no idea this course was so beautiful. We never get to see it on TV cause they’ve never had a tournament! Absolutely stunning. I’ve played RM and Kingston Heath. This looks every bit as great as them. Maybe better because it has ocean views as well! 😍
I want to like this video 18 times. What a course. What a player. Good player is Ron. I reckon I'd get about 10 stableford points playing here, but would absolutely love it.

That's a great 2 putt on 6, years of putt putt can prepare one for that. The greenside bunker on 2 is the size of a small house.
I hope you played Moonah course legend.
Get the big stick out !

Frankston… not Melbourne… Frankston is the Compton of Melbourne…
Well played Ron. I have played the ocean course there and the greens are tough to judge

Quality colour commentary from the poor mans Geoff Ogilvy. Shout out to the cameraman as well, great job.
Hey Ron would you be able to show the distance and how far you got in the video I love the vids the videos are immaculate
Great watch. Words can't describe the old course experience. The place is just special.
Views are spectacular and the course layout and conditioning will blow you away. …
At the same time it will bend you over and have its way with you… . It will expose every weakness in your game and make you pay…
And you will be happy about it… ecstatic even.
Just dont be dumb enough to walk it… 😉
Most underrated part is home 3 where Ron lasers the flag while he’s about to long putt 😂
I love my 2 iron as well.

It’s great to see this course on camera like this! Comes up very nice on the tele! Well played 👏

You should make it up to Queensland
Chops Ur a gamming legend. U should play beer skins against big red. That would be entertaining… if it went for the full 9
I know the Red-demption Episode just dropped, but this remains my favourite on the Channel so far. Editing and drone work is incredible.
subscribed because of the way you put the pin down, hate when people drop the pin on the green
My home course but I’ve been in the Uk for 6 years. This makes me really miss it. 😭
Armlock has gotta go Ron.
Not sure if battle more with course, yourself or brake on buggy?
Epic golf course and video Ron!
Absolutely nailed this video👌
You putted remarkably well as the greens can be diabolical
+6 with 6 penalty shots. Pretty good Ron.
Great camera work too Joel 👍
Very funny stuff & some good golf.
That swell coming in tho..

A beautiful but horrible course! Too much target-golf and you might as well leave half your clubs at home.
