Hardest Golf Course in Australia? The National (Old Course)

Probably my toughest challenge yet. Ron takes on the The National Golf club in Melbourne. The Old course is one of the best places I have played

  1. 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.

  2. 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….

  3. 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.

  4. 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…

  5. 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 ❤

  6. 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… 😉

  7. 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.

  8. 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

  9. Chops Ur a gamming legend. U should play beer skins against big red. That would be entertaining… if it went for the full 9

  10. I know the Red-demption Episode just dropped, but this remains my favourite on the Channel so far. Editing and drone work is incredible.

  11. 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! 😍

  12. 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.
