The Best Golf Of The Series?! – The Feuds Ep3 Matt Fryer vs @andycartergolf
chopper. [Music] There’s a bit of cheating everyone. I think when we’re talking about ball striking, there can never be a comparison. That’s how he wants to play it. [Music] Every putt I have to listen to. I can just about hear him in the back talking some nonsense. It’s probably the best I’ve seen you strike it. No, but you’re being facicious. I’m just genuinely saying I’ve actually hit the ball. I’m saying that you’ve hit it really good. Yeah. Know that’s what I’m saying. The man’s clutching at straws for himself. [Music] I’m going to hesitate that Andy’s done zero practice. He won’t have been practicing on his putter. Won’t be chipping, putting anything. He will have put no time into his game as where I’ve been to the gym. I have been practicing. I’ve played in another comp since me and Andy last played. I’ve been on the chipping green about three or four times. So, I’m doing the right things. Hopefully, that’s enough to uh just to see him off and when we go into the final, I’ll have a healthy healthy lead. I’d say me and Fry are on a very similar sort of level. We’ve always kind of of the of the four of us, we’ve always probably been the best two players. Obviously, not this year. Finch’s just grinded and played unbelievable. So, we never really like to lose to each other. There’s always been the the arguments of which one of us is the best one and then which one is the best of the four. Um, but I always kind of back myself to prevail. I’ve got here on zero practice and natural ability. Let’s see how much further it can take me. Right, game number three. As we stand, Carter and I are both level after two games. We have come to our new venue. We are at the stunning Sutton Cfield just in the middle of Birmingham or just outside Birmingham. Heathlyn Golf Course designed by Alistister McKenzie. It is going to be absolutely sensational. Sir, go on your chopper. Play well. Play well. All the best. Let’s see what we can do. A par four to start. 312 yds. With the way the the fairways are, I reckon these fours and three irons could actually get very type of golf course when I keep close to me. Someone came to play. Looks good. Oh, didn’t need that bounce. Okay. That’s all right. That’ll do. That’ll do. You Oh dear. Some of us have it, some of us don’t. Oh, what a bounce. It’s very much in the trees. That’s all right cuz that’s it. Chopper. Ripped it. Chopper. Hey, there’s a bit of cheating, everyone. Now, one of these little um wires. You’ll see you’ll see why these are here later. Oh, why do I go here? Tell you what, if that’s that’s how he wants to play it. It is actually a free drop, but we’ll make out that he’s a naughty boy. Naughty naughty boy. Land this about five shy and just watch it bumble on. That’s better. Just like that. Could it be a two to start? Very nice shot. Wow. That seems to go forever, but we’re okay. Now we’ve got Mr. Drop, redrop, drop, drop, drop, red, drop, red, drop, drop. Right. This needs to land. Go high quickly and land soft. It’s going to be a tricky one this to get it stopping. I reckon he hits the back fringe. I fatted it. That flub and run has worked out perfectly. That was lucky. You know what? There you are. More jam than Heartley’s. absolute fat. Three, three very dodgy drops and then he fats it and gets away with it. Actually thought mine was about a foot, but it’s it’s got a bit of work on it. It’s got a bit of work on it. So, it has lovely flags here at Sutton Coldfield. Look at that. Is that not a Lancaster road? I was about to say that. It reminds me of um ether England golf or laner golf like wood all sparesque. Yeah. H anyway. Right. Lovely course here. Thank you for having us down. This is the putting green. These are slick. If you haven’t seen the uh the other two matches yet that are on our channel and over on Carters, make sure you go and check them out. We’ve got another one to come from the back nine here on Carters. Then the grand finale on ours at Formbby. Going to be a day. Slightly up the hill. Oh, that bobble. It hit some just just throwing the clip about the three putts now. Hit a bit of sound. Good put that was hit a little bit of debris on the way. It was tracking quite nicely. It’s got the uh got the attention though for the second one. Definitely got the attention on bread and butter that for Oh, I hit that exactly where I wanted. So, just a slight misread. The easiest of fours, though. Actually thought my pitch was a bit closer, but you know, we’ll take it. Just two points. Carter to tidy up and not start with the uh first of his three jiggles. I hit it a bit soft. Just just play that in slow-mo going 360 around the hole and hit it how you want, but it ended up in the middle of the hole. I was surprised at how soft I hit it. That’s all. It’s fine. Two points. For those that don’t know how the feuds work as well, we have four nine hole matches, two on each channel. Stableford for each one. The winner of those goes into a bracket to qualify for shots back at the final. We’ll put up what those are for the brackets. Currently, we both have one shot back for the final. How will today fare? We don’t know. I’m obviously going to win. He’s already proven that he needs luck on his side. Let’s see how we go. Say, I’m sure that’s a Lancasher Rose. Looks like one. Comment down below if you remember here. Is that a Lancasher Rose or not? Uh 109 it is to the flag here on this par three. Second hole 109. It looks like you need to stop it quick as well, doesn’t it? This is just a great 54. Feels slightly downhill as well. Just a I always get figure one a 54 is like a fullund 114 yard club. Yeah. One 15 for me. So I’m just going to cut this slightly is my plan spin. It’ll do on the dance floor. Just professional play out here today. That’s all we need. I’m just going to bore him to death with a load of paws. Maybe throw in a birdie and just watch him crumble. Look at him. He’s got grass in his hair. Oh, he’s got a big grass twig in his hair. Looks like he’s been dragged through a bush. The ladies, I can’t One trip to the trees, eh? I’m only jealous. Can’t get it in my hair. Just slips off your head, doesn’t it? You want lost it just right of mine. Bit long as well. I always get, you know, I hate wedges off TE’s or just off like a T-shot. Excuse one. I hate the greens. Excuse one. There’s no danger. You can tell when a player’s on. Pin highness. Pin highness about five yards past pin high but okay. One two one and a half really left to right or up the hill. Hopefully there’s not a hill behind the hole this time. It’s a bit firm. Sit. Sorry. Oh dear. That’s all right. Just a little push actually was a decent read. Just they started it to the right of the hole for a left to right. Similar for me up the hill and then down the hill a little bit. Left to right. Push it. Bugger. Oh, that’s two where I’ve hit exactly where I wanted to. That’s all you can do, Matthew. It’s just what good putters do. Give us a line. Just noticed that huge boulder there. Oh, bit of break on that, wasn’t there? It was 90° if you say so. If that’s what you’re seeing, you crack on, fella. Bit of draw spin. Was it? Don’t shame me puts like you. Solid. Only used 33% of the hole this time. It’s all I needed. It’s all I needed. Two pars. Comfortable. Two long puts. Confidence is up. It is mad that is a game really, isn’t it? When you’re like you think like you end up with the same score but like in like there’s so many intricacies into how it ended up being two fours. I had a very good t-shirt on the first to be fair. Look like you’re in the trees. Took you know what? I had a lovely life my second shot. But that these um the cow protectors these cow protectors. If you don’t know to cows around here and they’re on GPS collars to stop them coming on the greens. That’s what this is for. To stop them walking on greens. I had an unbelievable lie. Then I had to drop it into like longer grass. It wasn’t amazing. You know what? I didn’t complain. Just just fatted it through a tree and got away. I was notifying you that I fatted my second through the tree. Yeah. because I was scared. I play with fear nowadays. Lovely setting here, isn’t it? It’s lovely, isn’t it? Very nice. Was it Sutton? Sutton Nature Parks. Sutton Park. Sutton Park just over the way. So, it’s a McKenzie design, but it’s uh Oh, is it part of it, but it’s very rugged sort of Heathland golf course. It’s not manicured like you’d see a modern Heathland look like. It’s very much uses the elements. It’s just moved into the top 100, has it? In the country as well. 77th. Wow. Well, congratulations on that. I’m getting great vibes from it. The greens are I love it when a course looks burnt out and fast. This is the type of you know you because it looks so fast. Yeah. I was You almost don’t want the ball to go too far away from you. I just want to keep it like Yeah. Land it and let it run. Just let land it. Let it run. Yeah. Long irons all the way around. Makes sense, sir. Makes sense. This one’s a par four. Four. 435. And I think I’m going to hit four iron, you know. Yeah, same. That’s it’s a it’s the bunkers are down by the green. Slight dog leg right to left. The new me doesn’t hit um driver underneath 400 yds anymore. But well, it’s 448, mate. Well, yeah, I know, but on this one, I’m still going to hit nine. Okay. I’m sensible. Do you think you’ll stick to that theory tomorrow around Formbby? Yeah, I knew me. Going to be a long day for you. Forbe’s not long. Off the backs is n 7,200. Now I might go to might go to my local golf store and just have this crank down to a one iron and then just take a bit take a bit of loft off it. Let’s send it on its merry way. Right then. Well, we carry on, sir. Right. Well, Play well. We go again. Oh god. Poor iron. Buffalo chicken wrap in the clubhouse. Was unbelievable. But wow, I’m full. Oh, that was a bad swing. Slapped it way off the heel. That was delightfully awful, Matthew. Yeah, just two points. Whatever. Oh, that was very lungey. Had Presume the line is just over those two handed, isn’t it? Yeah, I had mixed thoughts on that one. Should have stuck to one swing. Thought maybe not 72. Incoming that carries that tree. It’s brilliant strike. Good. I would say it kicked left when it landed. Shock. Beautiful strike though. We couldn’t be more further apart. Yes. Finally. Bit of peace. Two holes down, Andrew. Yep. First thoughts of the golf course. I like it. I like this sort of I love Heathland sort of look. You get the um the purple heather, the burnt out fairways, the feels fast. It runs fast. It puts the fear of God into you on every single shot. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. I like it. Uh, you know what? I’m thinking I might like Heathlyn golf more than I like Lynx golf. I like I do love links, but I think having the trees is nice. Yeah, link links may be a little bit better actually cuz you you want the sea. I always like seeing the sea or the oceans when I’m playing golf. And the wind. Yeah, I do like playing in the wind. Yeah, and the misery everything. But yeah, Heathland Heathland is a close close second. I tell you, I think you got lucky. You’re short and I reckon I’m going to be blocked out. Yeah, well, I knew that. You shanked it and I pured it. What’s what what a stupid bloody game this is. It’s just what happens when you when you’re calculated about how you play the game. Power shank into a perfect position. Pured it behind a tree. 230 to them. Wow. 230. Just how far? Maybe zap the tea and see if you can hit your second shot further than your first. I will be hitting it. Well, the hole was 440. Oh, was it? Yeah. So, it went 210. Wow. And I’ll be hitting six iron. The same shank off the tea. Won’t work. No. So cheeky. So facitious sometimes. That’s why it’s called the feuds, everybody. Wind into a little back. Little cuty five iron. Little high cut off the left left middle of the green. And just let it just trickle into position. What position would that be? The middle of the green. Okay. It’s going to bounce. It’s going to fly just short of it. Two bounces. Roll 35 ft. You’re going to roll at 235 ft. Yeah, it’s going to finish 35 ft away. All right. Any more questions on it or? No. No. I think that’s enough information for us. Good. I’ve pushed it. Oh, you did push it and now it’s fading. Stay soft. That was well short as well. I was intending to land it there, but just not 30 yard right of that. I wanted to be 30 yard left. Short. Glove shot. It’s all right. That’s good. That chipping up. Glove shot. I’ll take my lob wedge now cuz I’ll I’ll be using that. You got any idea how bad Matt’s t-shirt was? I’ve only got 180 in just the 40 yards between us. Right, 180. Flag is at the very back. So, it’s going to be like 170 to the middle. Oh, wind should be slightly into, but it seems to have vanished. It’s going to chip 180. Say 180. No, no, this tree is fine. Um the lie is it’s okay. Got to come down a little bit steeper than normal just because there’s a little tough to grasp behind it. So that will make me just get a little bit hotter on it. Launch it a little bit lower. So it’ll make it go a bit further. So I’m going to have seven iron just like a 3/4 3/4 7. That was a stinky little lie, wasn’t it? Played it quite well, though. It started to slow down. It’s not slowing down. It’s going over the back. Oh my god. Oh my god. It’s in the headler. Have they gone in? No. That was wild. struck it really well, but it just came out super low. Wow. Punished. Right. Not the best part of 50 yards here, but I’m going to play a little little pitch back of the stance with a 54 and just get it running. Land it just on the green and let it trundle its way on up there. Literally landed that bit shy. Little bit just the 40 ft. Actually struck it so well. Just needed to fly it another 5T and it would have got on. It got killed on its first bounce. Right. The ball’s stuck between two toughs of grass on this one. So, it’s got to chop down on it. Chop and charge. Little squiffy lie. Is it a little bit? It’s right in between two like tuft of grass in the wrong direction. If I was chipping that way to you, it’ be fine. But I’m not. Oh, I tell you what, that dug lovely, didn’t it? It’s like something really lovely if that went in. That would have been a rascal chip in played that quite well. Good strike on it. Fairways. Fairways are key. Yes, because those last two lies I’ve had have been absolutely treacherous. Yeah, I’d almost look back and go, I hit a driver down there. Couldn’t we couldn’t even hit it with an iron. Yeah, that’s what I mean. Get further down further down in the rubbish and you’re only wedging on then. True. Always just go down to mid irons. Yeah. Hitting eight irons off TE’s, right? Wedge by the 16th. That putting green has scared the life out of me. It’s definitely quicker on the putting green than it is out here. You’re coming uphill. There wasn’t many uppers on the putting green. Yeah, true. They were all downhill. Heyi ho. Hard to believe I’m about to go one behind it from a man who’s not at the course yet, mind you. Downhill left to right. Scratch that whole square. I feel like Hey, didn’t do that once last week. Hey, don’t change. You’re good enough as you are, buddy. That’s right. That’s all right. Get out of jail card there. Yes. Lovely. Lovely plaques here. You know what I you know what I always appreciate at a golf course? Like good tea markers and good yardage markers on the uh on the TE’s. I think that goes a long way. Wood with like a bit of brass in there. This one here, 381 yards of par4. or it’s a dog leg from left to right. There is a bunker down there that looks about I’m going to say 230 to carry. It’s two about 250 from here. It was 240 from the buggies. Was it 240? So yeah, two 260 and we’re Bob’s your uncle. And then the next bunkers are at the green at 320. They start and then run up to the green. So I wouldn’t try and overcut it. I play more safe with a bit of a cut. Yeah. Just where the boys are now. Yeah. Chip it on where they are. Little lemo lemon easy. Little wedge. Tap it in. Rewrite the wrongs of the last hole. Last hole was wrong. All kinds of wrong. Right. Then we go again. Scores tied everyone. That’s what golf is. We have to do it again. Don’t you just love golf when it’s like this? Just pure. Pure. You don’t even like golf, do you? Love golf. Love it. Make a living out of it every day. Coaching tens of people a day. Tens. We’d possibly do hundreds. Depends if you’re on skill. It’s just banging out. No, I do it properly. [Music] What that good? It’s perfect that it can’t I saw it I saw it land but I didn’t see much else. It’s just run straight up the middle. Just that perfect little limo shape of the whole low flag. It’s not run out of fairway, has it? No, it’s literally in line with that mound in the distance on the fairway. Looking at the height of the green, I would I would say I’ve probably got 50 yards in. All right. Don’t chase it, though. Chase what? Your ball. Yeah, you’ll hurt yourself. Don’t need to. Oh, pulled it a decided to draw it on the left to right hole. That was a pull. Soft, soft, soft, soft, softs. That’s all right. It’s all right. I That’s That was a about 100 foot in the air. That Joe, that was a bloody beautiful strike. The bounce. Oh, the bounce. Yeah, the bounce. That was me first shot with me new driver there. Got a 10 and a half with a little tor sleeve on it to take it 75 down. So, it’s now, let me do math quickly. It’s now 9.75. Just looks a bit more neutral square to open and started it where I wanted. First fairway hit. I think that’s more than a hit with my last driver. So, we’re already on a positive. Carter’s here in the death zone. Oh, here it is. Oh, it is. Oh, should have stuck with my uh my game plan of driver. No driver over under four. What is this? Surprised you’ve not rolled into the GU bit given all your luck. Yeah, you did. So, that was under 400 then. I know. Well, I just thought it looks wide open. Apart from this um 5×5 yard squared area, it is. It’s not the far way though, is it folks? Nope. Nope, it’s not. You’re only 79 to the front. So, bugger. Good luck, buddy. All right. Just need to just check there’s no nukes under there that you’re about to mercur. Soft tailed nukes that you’re about to decapitate. Well, they shouldn’t be here, should they? It’s my area. This just needs I just chop this at 40 or 50 yards. Just a little patch of grass halfway between me and the front edge. I’ll be quite happy with that. Looks like an awful lie. Can’t winge about that though cuz I’m in the crap. All right. Come on. 40 y. Just swing it to there. I’ve hit it. Unbelievable. That’s done well that Oh, good bounce. Oh, spin. You caught the soft ground as well. Yeah. A bit unlucky really. I wouldn’t go that far. I actually didn’t realize it was a decent. It was actually looked worse than it was. That’s all right. Listen, you missed the fairway. It’s tough. Nice part of brown fair green fairway amongst the burnt out brown here just to get that little little slizzle on it now. So, 55 yards, 58°. Try and land it at 50, maybe a little bit shy and just let it spin in it. Good distance. Yeah, I didn’t realize it went so left to right there. I’m happy though because everything I did in my lesson was all about me pulling the life out of it and having a shut face and I did nothing of that. I hit it out the middle. I just didn’t realize the green was severely left to right. Oh, that’s it. Hold it. It’s a bad putt. It was a bad putt. The uh the sauce pan didn’t obviously help when I was in the buggy then I was like he’s got to ask me to move that short. No, I was I was I pulled it a tiny bit so it shouldn’t have really been in my way. But listen, when you pull it, you can’t winch. What can you do? I’ll only win when I get bad luck. My own my own paw. Why were so you were saying you should have been right of that? I was going like here. Yeah. Oh wow. Where I was? Oh yeah. You were a little bit. Even so I would have said my mark the line. Yeah. But hey ho. You do you. You do you hold it. What can you do? That’s a big old plane, isn’t it? It’s Dubai. Is that the old Emirates plane? The Emirates one. Oh, I thought I had that for a minute and then it just wiggled on me quite a bit in it. Well, make percentage PGA Tour from this range is 83. If you knock off the eight, you’ve got carters. Not a PJ tour. Exactly. Oh, it’s one three ball. Technically not cuz he was off the green. Poor T-shot. Can’t complain about it. Just a poor T-shot. Poor position. I mean, you got it back into position very well. Yeah, but still poor T-shot. I say the putt was probably worse than the T-OT. First one was poor. First one was a pull, but it’s what it is, isn’t it? You just got to smile, play golf, beautiful golf course. Beautiful day. Terrible. I’m really impressed by this course. Class, isn’t it? Like I didn’t know what to expect and it’s And actually on the stats, that’s still technically a two put. So, who am I to grumble? No one really. You keep doing you. I will. Now, we did mention in the first episodes about a giveaway for a junior section. Five lasers, the Pro X shot scope. We’re going to give five of them with either mine or Andrew’s logo on to whoever wins the final tomorrow. Nice. If you want to be in that draw, you have to get the secretary or junior organizer of your golf club to drop us an email [email protected]. You’ll be entered into a random draw and one golf club will be getting five lasers to give us prizes on prize night for juniors. Very nice. Thank you, Shot Scope. Yeah, we’ll make sure it’s my logo cuz we don’t want any bullying to happen if finally got one of yours. Wow. Not sure what to say about that to be honest. Right onto the next fifth. Par five, 483 yards. This hole looks insane. You see it walking down there. Dog leg right to left. I need to get my laser out because they’ve actually had a load of um new bunkers put in over the winter here and a couple of them aren’t remapped yet. But those got to be driver position, aren’t they? Yeah, I think they’re about 260, 270. And then there’s one further in the distance that looks driver runout position. I think it’s going to be six iron, four iron. I might actually go down to like a four or five just so I can uh feel some fairway. Feel like I’ve hit quite a few good shots today. Some lovely strikes just in the wrong direction there. Right, that that one on the right that’s sticking out 288 and the one in the distance 340. So 280 to carry, 330 to get in the other one. You can hit three to the far bunk on the right. To be fair, I think I’m going to go at the left one and just cut cut a five iron into the middle. Wow. cuz then I can just knock on with a something. That is uh N that’s extremely extremely negative. It’s extremely tactical cuz this flies 205. So add what 30 40 in for the fairway bouncing. It’s not going to go 40 yards. It’s in it’s kind of winds there down off the left. So this is going 250. Add your 30 250. This club cannot get to that left trap. True is where my four iron I’m questioning whether it does. Well out. Wow. Mother. That was horrendous. Gone. I’ve seen it bounce. Surely not. I did actually see it bounce, but I’m going to hit a provisional. That was awful. Just not got my turn yet. gym this morning was a bad idea. All this stuff must stop if that’s bounced cuz that was I saw it back. Yeah, it there was one bounce. There wasn’t another. Right, I’ve gone just gone three iron just a just at the far bunker that we can see aim the middle there. Such a bad That’s a great shot. That’s where I should have aimed instead of aiming down the path and trying to cut it. I tell you, just got this little thing going on. I try when I arrived this morning, I was like, what was I doing two weeks ago when I was swinging it quite well? It’s the hardest thing about not playing much golf in it. Trying to remember some swing thoughts. I feel like I remembered them. Why didn’t I aim straight down the middle first time? You talk about trying to do too much of a T-shot and you pull out a five iron and start talking about fading it off bunkers. Yeah. Yeah. The whole point the whole point of grabbing a five iron. Yeah. Just aim at the middle and Oh well. Oh, let’s go find mine. Pretty good lie. I’m just going to bash it with a n iron now. Might get on with this n iron 256. out. It soft. Yeah, it’s fine. Just ran off the fairway, but shy up, but all good. All good. That’ll do. All good. Move on. Just exactly what he planned from start to finish. Don’t forget that, folks. This is all part of his plan. Don’t ever let him tell you that it wasn’t part of his plan. It was right. 206 pin 186 front edge. I’ve got a six iron in my hand, which is actually starting to feel like it might be a bit much, but I’m still yet to hit a ball off a fairway onto a green, so I’m not sure how receptive it’s going to be. So, I’m just going to just 186. Yeah, I don’t want it to be short. That wind’s Oh, wind’s actually helping, isn’t it? Yeah. Let’s go. Seven. I’m going to power a seven there. So, 47, which is about 180. Bit of wind. Hot day. Just needs to try and get Need to try and get another 15 out of it. Oh, pulled it. It’s the problem. We’re trying to rip it, you see. Oh, shine a light. Oh dear. Oh dear. Andrew. But left bit rush that I took just rushed it a little bit. Never mind. It’s all good. We’re fine. We’re fine. Well, 73 yards for me. Pitching down the wind over a little null. Very uh undulating green this one looks like. to try and land it around about 60 65 and just let it run up cuz it’s downwind. 58. Let’s get it. Let’s get it dancing. Be good. Oh, bang on line. I did not think that slope would have that much effect on it. I still coming out of the roof down the wind. To be fair, I struck it. That’s the problem when you have a lesson. You I was allowing for my old duff and run there. I forgot about the strike bit and now hit it out the middle and it stops. Yeah, I think they are receptive enough. Yeah, they’re green enough, aren’t they? Yeah. Right. You know what I mean? Dropped it to my detriment there. All right. This chip. I don’t think he realizes how much he’s going to get away from him. When you get on the screen, it’s running this way. Got to be delicate. Um, that did get away from him in another honestly another sense. This is actually like the first the first lie was beautiful. I’ve had three, Andy. Yeah, I know. Yeah. Ah, it just you stretch, stretch, stretch. Oh, e. That would have been a beautiful birdie. That would have really been a horrible thing for him to see. Right. Andy for two douff three chip four. This is for par. So good for so long. So that’s what we call a bogey. It’s a bogey. Unfortunately, there’s three in a row. Lucky pal. This one’s called long. 523 yards of par five madness. Some bunkers up near the green. Some on the uh fairway, but not for us. Not for us. What’s that trap to cover there? Look at this. He’s checked out already. He’s He’s duffnering on the tea here. I think I’m waiting for the group in front. 256 to get over those traps that just look so well placed. What are you thinking? Um, so those those traps are what? 256. Yeah. Hit it left with a four iron. Let it bounce down and then go up at it. 256. You got 250 in then, haven’t you? Or do you take them on? I’m just going to hit it down the middle with a four iron. Get it running along. Use the ground to my advantage. Problem is the iron’s not a it’s not bull too. I suppose that wind. Come on. Ah, maybe it is. It’s a funny fade, but it’s fine. It’s a Yeah. Two yard draw. Quite windy that. Yeah, I know. It’s all right. I’ve got I’ve got such a commanding lead. It doesn’t matter. Oh, I think it’s Oh, I’m going to three shot my way up this like a true true strategist. Oh no. Soft. Hit the tree. Oh, hit the tree. It went into the treehouse and dropped directly down. That was all right. You’re now level with my four iron. Oh god. Well, Andrew, we’ve just teeded off on five. Indeed. It’s a struggle for you today. Not really. To be fair, I think you’re maybe overplaying that a little bit. I really hit the ball quite well. Very unlucky on that last hole. I had a beautiful lie and obviously had to drop it onto literally the tightest possible line. So, not duck a chip like that for a long time. But it is what it is. It’s fine. I’m not going to lose any sleep over it. Matthew, what are you now? You’re two back. Yeah, two back. Oh, that’s that’s sable, isn’t it? That’s savable. Some good holes coming up. This one looks getable now. Gosh, there’s a lot of bunkers crossing that fairway. Yours is all right after murdering a squirrel. You’re okay. Every squirrel’s got a fairway for me. So, let’s see what’s what. Some bunkers down there. These aren’t They’re not even on the map. No, they’ve redone them all, aren’t they? Oh, no. No, these ones are. This is a lovely, lovely hole. They’re all very wellframed holes. 250 to clear the bonkers or 205 to stay short. Going to make a a call here. This is one of my favorite courses I’ve played this year so far. Nice, isn’t it? I told you. I told you. Very good. Very good. It was a um an anti-block t-shot that led to a snap hook. 205 should be short of all the bunkers. So, I’m just going to try and just punch a six out there into wind. So, shouldn’t get there to be fair. Shots. Stop going left. Stay there. That’s fine. That’s fine. It’s fine. Mine is sat like it has been placed on a teapg. I found another little green patch amongst the burnt ground. I’m going to have a dig at this when the green clears. I’ve got two 250 to the front. I only need to fly it 230 realistically. So a good three would get it bouncing up. There is a cross bunker but I’m not that bothered if even if I end up in that. It’s only a flick on. Travel over that trap. That could go in the hole. Front edge jaw near the front. Was a little bit out the bottom, but we’re a-ok. Okay. Lucky. Shocked. I’m lucky mine didn’t get on there. Hey, I’m lucky it didn’t get on. Yeah, I thought it would. It’s pitch pitch level with that bunk on the right. So, it’s didn’t really have very far to roll either. Was exactly how I intended it as well. Sure. It was right. 106 pin. This needs to This needs to go in close. Really? That was struck. That could be Duncan. Oh, shy about 20 foot up the hill. Good shot though. A little bit short. Big moments here in the feuds. Carter needs to realistically knock this in to have any chance of not getting away from me or me getting away from him. Oh. Oh dear. Oh dear. Lucky buddy. Be great if we play gimmies one time. You reckon we’d shoot like 12 under with gimmies? Yeah. Every green’s a one put. You can have that. Pick it up. Sweet. Nice one. Good pop. Back to you. Back to level. Yeah. Three points for me. That one, Carter. Yeah, I know. Matthew, I know how stable food works. Two points. I congratulated you and said well done. Three points clear you now. Yeah. Cool. We go again once more into battle. Seven hole. Even though we’ve been waiting, it doesn’t feel like we’ve been out here long. 483 yards. The seventh hole. Three par fives in a row. Three par five. Just just wild wild stuff. A par 13. I have actually never seen or played that before. No, I don’t think I have. Glad I played it. So, this one dog leg left to right, you go down to the fairway, then up to the green. Very They’re all very well framed holes here. That mound in the distance is like 350. Okay, I’m going straight at that. Wind’s off the right line. It’s fine. Can’t see it. It should have just trickled into the roof, I think. Yeah, it’s just right at that post. That 200 post be fine. It’ll be knock it on, mate. Birdie, watch Andy squeal. Easy. Right. Try and just go tad right of that. [Music] That’s perfect. That almost looked like it had a double up then. It sort of looked like it was reaching its apex and then Oh yeah. got up again. It kind of like looked like it was going to fade then went right to left. Good shot though. Stalled. It’s fine. Fairway. Fairway. Lovely. You can make five from there. That should be fine. Yeah, I’ll be okay. You can do it. Don’t you worry about me. You can do it. Don’t you worry. Right. 180 181 pin 165 front. So, I can’t It’s wind’s a tiny bit of her, but not much off the right as well. So, I’m just going to draw a seven iron in. I can’t get myself hitting a six on that. Just uphill a little bit as well. I think just right portion of the green with a draw should I think be okay like that. I’ll stop turning. Yeah, good shot. Little shy, but very good. That was a good shot. I’ll take that. Right. and 72 for me. I’m going to go right of the flag. Wind’s going to push it back up and also a bit safer. Seven iron 185 back. So up the hill. This is This is just lovely. It’s come out funky out of that lie. Should catch a bit. struck that night. It just sort of like popped on me. It’ll do. That’s fine. Chip your chipping prowess. You’ll be fine. Yeah, I’ll be good. Another birdie. Just chalk me down for a birdie. That should go in. Oh, it’s not broke. just sort of released a bit more than I thought off that up slope, but hey, happy with it. Landed it where I wanted to. It just never sort of settled. Right up a hill. Just goes downhill after the pin though. So, we got to be careful on pace. Not much in it left. Little bit left to right, but not massive. gone. Too hard. See you. Too hard. Too hard. Massive overread as well. Right. I’ve got a tiny bit of right to left on this. Tiny bit of right to left. It’ be nice to hold this given the driver’s that good, but Well done. Good. Cheers, guys. Back to backs. Up and down. No pressure on Andy now. Correct. I pulled it. Bad pull. Never mind. Good pie, mate. Thank you. Thank you. It’s a couple of nice shots in there, though. That’s what it’s about. Front line’s gone, Matt. So, sorry about that. And there is the admission of giving in everybody. Well, it’s over anyway. Four in it. Should we just roll on to the next one? Might as well. Do remember if I beat you by four or more, I get two shots for the final. And if I beat you by six or more, I’m getting three shots. So, I’d keep knuckling down if I was you. Cuz I’ve actually, to be fair, I’m just having a little think back to myself. Really, bar snap hook up on the last. I think you’ve played exceptional golf. I’ve played just as well as you. Just hit a couple of missed it in a couple of the wrong places just like you have, but you just been a little bit more consistent. You just had pars to be fair. Yeah. Yeah, pars. I mean, back to back birdies, but Well, back to back birdies. Other than that, you’ve played exactly. Yeah, you played as well as me. I’d say I’ve struck the ball really nicely to be fair. I’m not I’m genuinely genuinely genuinely not even just saying to the camera, I’ve hit the ball very solid. It’s probably the best I’ve seen you strike it. No, but you’re being facicious. I’m just genuinely saying I’ve actually hit the ball. I’m saying that you’ve hit you’ve hit it really good. Yeah. Know, that’s what I’m saying. On the next man’s collecting straws for himself, right? 384 that says on the old marker funnels up near the green here. Very tight. So it’s a poke it onto the fairway. Then go in with maybe a funnel mid iron, I would suggest. Good looking hole. You can see the fairway, but you you can only see a bit of it. You can see where like the shape of it is. There’s nothing there’s nothing. There’s a bunker at 350 down there. And that is it. I think the guy in light blue if we hit a draw off him that would be good. If you finish on the edge of the big tree, that’s where we want to be. That’s the line. That is the line. Lovely golfer. Golfist golfer golfer ringing golf. Let’s watch Andy hit it as good as me. Now I think if we’re talking about ball striking, there can never be a comparison. We can talk about scores all you like. Never be a comparison. That’s in the uh rubbish everyone. Beauty. Perfect. That just little block. Complete control of your swing. [Laughter] Look at that. There was an actual fist pump to fire flames on the green ahead. That was Did he Did he just hold that? If you are a watcher of the video, please comment what you call that sir. That was very that that was going he in one like his first put. It was his first put and he he gave this fist bump. He looked like he’d hit it like halfway and where he picked the ball out from. Jesus that bumps never stopped rolling. Like an F50 takeoff. Insane. Right. I’ve got 147 straight into it. I’m going to hit a little chippy eight. I think it’s a chippy eight. It’s on the It’s on the It should be a nine. Looks good on it. Yeah. Very good. Lovely shot. To be fair, I’m just just gutted I’m not hitting it as well as Andy cuz that would have gone in. Not necessarily. They don’t go in when you hit them. Well, there you go. They go They go straight in where you want them. Like that. Like that. That was a great shot. I’m just giving you praise. Why you Why you Why you so rude? I’m not being rude. Literally saying y 140 into a slight breeze. Um take aim. Bit of a bare lie. Oh, it has to move a little bit. Might find the bunker. Oh, just got over about 20 foot straight. It went straight again. Good bit of luck there. Shot. No draws. Wish I pushed mine. It would have gone in the hole. It was still a good shot, Matthew. Don’t be so harsh on yourself. That little ball washer is my line. Yours was good. hit pitched in that tumbled down. Yeah, I thought pitch would have a little draw on it, but it didn’t. There’s his pitch mark. Sneaky, but quick. Stay up. Ah, still you, mate. It’s not though, is it? Oh, there is. Ah, defo you. It’s not every put I have to listen to. I can just about hear him in the back talking some nonsense. Well, I actually said it’s a sneaky put this one. Fast down the hill. Was fast. And you rammed it. I didn’t slightly over hit it. Rammed it. Is what it is, isn’t it? Right. Right, we got a bit of got a bit of snap on this one. Bit of snap, crackle, and pop this for three on the spin though. Remy ballstein. Very nice. Hard work’s paying off. Solid. Take some guts to knock that in after watching me. Was it? Yeah. Well, that was a big putt that Why? Cuz you would have been five behind if you missed it. It’s not a big pull, though, is it? Wait, I think you are five behind. Maybe we are. You are. You are five behind. You would have been six behind. That would have been the three shot swinger. Right. Final hole of the match, ladies and gentlemen. Sneak one more and we get three going into tomorrow and then depending on what happens in the next episode. Three or two. Three. Was it three on a six one? All right. Yeah. We got 147 up the hill downwind. Same shot as the last essentially. I had 147 then. This is a little bit more uphill though. Just gonna This is about half a yard uphill. Just going to hump it next to the hole. Oh, I’ve overturned it just off the green. I think it’s hard to say if it looked long. It was pin eye when it pitched. I think it’s just just on the fringe. Maybe I turned it a little bit too much. Simple up and down there. Nothing to worry about. All right. Same. Oh, wind’s changed direction now. Same club. N feels like it’s into wind. This is a good shot. This is a very good shot. Looks good. Josh gave it a got a thumbs up from the camera man. Always a nice sign. Must be close. Always good. It must be close. Oh, nice. Right then. Up top. Couple of ways to play this. Mind you, if I try going up top and I don’t quite catch it, it goes short. Runs on. Dunk played it nice t-shirt that did me there in left. It would have been a dunk. It’s a shame. It would have been Stay up. Ah. I thought that was going to just catch a piece then. And Andrew, did you looked like it for a long time from behind all that? Right. Little slippery downhill. Yes. Well done. What’s that? Six over. Um, no. Four. Four. Is it? No. How’d you tell? I say it’s two in it. I’m being facitious. What’s new, Matthew? What’s new? Not a lot. Well, a point for me takes us to four. Well played. Well done. Well done. Good golf. Good golf. So, final scores. 16 for Andrew, 19 for me, three. The difference means I carry a one shot advantage going into the final. Two shots going in. One shots going in. Make sure you stay tuned for the next episode over on Andy’s channel. And why not watch one of the first ones just here if you’ve missed out. Let’s go do battle. Let’s go do battle, sir. Let’s take it to the bat. Play well. A lot of golf left yet.

Good show chaps. Don’t think I’ve ever seen a course need a drink more!
given the state of the fairways you could've played on an IKEA parking lot and wouldn't even had noticed the difference
If you two could walk the talk😂
It’s a Tudor rose. A mix of the two houses!!!
Dare I say Andy is looked bored of Fryers incessant dull banter 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Becoming my new favourite series!
Deffo looking a bit aggi
what make are your shorts andy ?
Lovely course 😂
Matt just continues to bluff and bluff and then crumbles if things go wrong. As soon as he says city, I close my eyes
Softly softly 🙈
The Bryan Bros played the least expensive course in Chicago ($13) and it looked in better shape.
Enjoy the series but please explain what all the free drops are for at the time of dropping the ball !
Matts moving jaw, could power a small city ! he's almost as bad as Liam on golf mates ! never shuts up.
👍👍
Wouldnt you be gutted matt, if you've done all the working out and practice, then andy just rocks up and beats you without doing anything 😂😂
Love the series too.
Thanks for watching hope your enjoying the series! Remember to get your golf club to enter the giveaway!
I love these matches! I want to see more of the lads with Finchy and Rick.
Laurel and hardy resurrection. 😂😂
loving this mini series, adds a real competative edge to a partnership with great chemestry
Kinda low energy video. Should’ve been more fun.
Good series, ignore the slightly negative comments, and both keep doing "you do you"
I wonder if andy has ever decked fryer 😂
Apart from shaky camera work, it was a great video
Great stuff again, two mates playing golf, what's not to like?
Why do all poor putters AIM Point express, and good putters use their golf nous, eyes, terrain, grain etc, and then most importantly, stroke the ball where they aim. Andy desperately needs to see a decent putting coach, his stroke is jabby and he seems to pull everything
Camera work needs some practice, getting sea sick with the shaking.
I think Andys problem is his shoes look like he's got high heels on or those old dancing shoes
Must say, I think you two and Rick are very close ability wise, but Peter has pulled clear by quite a margin, great content Matt 👍
Sorry andy Matt works on chipping and putting and it's showing in this game so far.
Well played on that last hole andy .
Really enjoying this series gents, massive thanks for getting together and filming/editing and all the work to make this happen
That's a Tudor Rose btw.
Great watch, terrible listen! I just mute it when Matt talks (which is pretty much the whole video😂). You are such a bad sport Matt, constantly talking and trying to put your opponent off.
3 Bogies in a row for AC and 3 Birdies in a row for Fryer, the back nine could be more of the same or a impressive come back….. loving this series!
It's like watching The Inbetweeners in middle age, Jay and Simon, and Si has just had enough of Jay's talk
Fryer is so slow It’s painful to watch.. some really poor tee shots from scratch golfers.
Tudor rose (Google it) – sad that someone from Lancashire doesn't know that…
Good stuff ❤
You're killing it Matty!
Great series but these are just too long. There is way too much time shown between shots. Just my opinion but we don't need to see all the chit chat and walking back and forth deciding on which club to hit etc.. Cut out the BS and get on with the golf…
