Final Round – Maylands Golf Course
Choppers, this is the final round of the public track series. Ron has played Kolia Park, Wembley, and Whaleback, and currently sits at even par today at Mland’s Golf Course. If Ron shoots underpar, then the the total of all of them will will be will also be under par. Can he get the job done? Let’s go. Oh, this is early, man. This is very early. It’s the best part about like coming in the summer. 5:30 we’re heading to the first tea. Ready? Ready to go. You had a chip a partner. Warm up on the range. This is early, man. It’s very early. All right. First hole. Par five. 457 m. I need a good start here. Oh, back’s not good. Back’s not good. No, we’re good. Okay. Ready? Yeah. Good start. That’s a great start. Oh, play fruit yesterday. Fold a couple of like pies. Lukewarm pies. Big big meaty ones. So, last night I flicked you through some questions from the punters. There’s a few there. Pick me favorites. Um, so there’s a few. There’s a lot. Not the first, but a couple. So, you want me to um question SL interview? Is that Yeah, we’ll do that as I as I struggle around this golf course. Yeah. How come I can’t get up and down out of a bunker? Okay. 163 m to go. Um, I’ve got to put the leg back a bit here cuz I got a little creamy way. I’m going to go the eight. Throw the hands early. Very early for hand throwing. No throwing of the hands there. Zero throwing of the hands. Good drive. A bit yippy, wasn’t it? Spray. Spray. Yeah. Sideways. I reckon probably the most common question recently. Where are the videos from Japan? They they are coming. They are. We were there with Mazuno and we was at the factory for a number of days, played some golf and now we’re just waiting to get the the green light to bring them out. And I think the first one will be very early December. So I think over all December you’ll see Japan stuff which will be pretty cool cuz it is it’s going to be unreal too. A new ball marker. Yeah, I think I lost one already. That’ll work. It’s been the difference. Good player out of luck. It’s upside down. All right. Can we get them yet or not? No, not yet. Okay. Let me test it out. Couple more test runs. Right. 54. Just landed on the front. Roll it out. Chipping’s not the best at the minute, is it? I’ve gone through some stuff with the old short game. Chipping. Putting maybe not putting anymore, though. I got the Scott. Scott. Now it’s called Scott. God damn it. The Scott. I’ve always wanted one of these. So far it’s been working. That’s the reason why you won the JDC, mate. I am the John Daily Classic Champion. What do I call it? Scoda. Scott. Scott. me my English. That’s a great par. Made that look hard. That’s a car, is it? Damn it. Right. Even par through one. Even par for the four rounds. Got to go low today. Got to go low. I’m warmed up. I’m good to go. Beer. 316 and this thing dog legs hard left. What would you do? I don’t know. Okay, I might try and draw the old stinger. Give the stinger a whack, mate. Perfect. Too much. I think it might be really good. Hooked it a bit, but I think that could be money. I look problem. Literally open my phone. Just a message on Instagram. Jolly, when can we expect some of the Japan content, bro? It’s coming. Yeah. When you listen to this, you will get it up there. Uh, right. Here we go. Why not? No, let’s save that one for later. Let’s say that one for later. Hold on. How many choppers would it take Ambrose format to make the cut at a major? Four. All of them. Yeah. Five. Five. Ambrose. Oh, Ambrose. First guy yips it. Second guy gets a bit yippy. Third guy hits one. Okay. The other two go like, “Okay, now I can pin the ears back.” I think four. You’re getting cocky. Yeah. Five. Yeah. Uh, you’re here, mate. Oh. Oh. How the hell has it ended up there? All right. 107 blocked out. Back foot. Lob wedge. Snappy hook. Rodeo. Oh man, this is a big hook. Actually, I can see it going through that gap there. That’s what I’m thinking. Up and then land. I’ve got to stop hitting fairways, man. [Laughter] Why do I hit it straight? I thought that was going to go in. All right, let’s go. Pick it up. Let me pick it up. Let me pick one up. Oh, I’d give you that. Yeah, you would give me that. Yeah, I would definitely give you that. So, I got we got this in Japan. We had a day off and we just went secondhand shopping around Japan and we filmed it. So, I think the second video in Japan, you’ll see what it’s like. Incredible to go shopping in Japan. Almost as good as that shot. Man, how’s that not gone in? That’s That’s one of the best shots I’ve hit in a long time. birdie one under. Hey, where’s the bush on the next hole? I’m hoping for it. 358 m bush on the left gone straight at that dog legs right doesn’t matter. We just hit it anywhere. All right, cut the corner. Yeah. Oh, we might be in trouble there. Drew too much. 30. Best tip to go from a 20 handicap to a 10 handicap. It’s all inside 100. Chipping, putting inside 100. I know it’s boring, but And then maybe putting the driver away on certain holes, keeping it in play. like hit this one, hit it down the guts, and then you’ve got a shot into the green. Were you trying to go the green? Uh, I was trying to cut the corner. Okay, roll the hands. Um, yeah, playing smart brings your score down massively. And if your short game’s works when your short game, that’ll bring it down even more, but we’re just dodging some sprinklers right now. This is This is like trying to get through, you know, Charlie’s Angels when they go through the lasers. You know, are you in the leather suit? I can I think I can catch the right edge of the green here. Just going to six iron it through this gap. Skip, skip, skip, skip, skip, skip, skip. Oh, it’s all wet. Nearly. I’ll take it. I’ll take it. It’s a little wet. It’s going to go pitchy. Chip and run. Oh, just skidded bugger. So, just noticing a couple of pitch marks on the green. This is how you prepare a pitch mark. Where’s a freshy? There’s a lot. Okay, here. Just a tea, anything. Pull it in from the sides. Pull it in. Pull it in. Pull it in. Tap it down. That’ll come back twice as quick. That’s quick. How’s What did that take? 5 seconds. Actually rolling for quite nicely though. Ah, give it back. How often do you do that? Birdie and then you bogey the next. All the time. Every time. Here you go. No, I don’t want that. 30 birdie. No. There you go, buddy. You have that. I don’t want that. Par five, 444 m. That’s short. That’s short. Double dog legs. Bit of water. Bit of trees. No water. No water. Well, unless you hit it 800. Ready? I’ll tell you the line. Yeah. Right here. That’s inside the Oh, no. Sorry. Hang on. Where’s your arm? I can’t see over the head. Look, I’ve got a hat on. No, your arm. That’s dead. That is big loosey lanky Australian man. Yuck. That’s the swing I’m trying to get rid of. What? Good line. You said don’t hit 800 and I was like and I pulled back off it. Should warm up maybe. Oh, you reckon? I reckon I know the answer to this one. What’s the best shot you think you’ve ever hit? I shouldn’t have talking about on camera. Uh yeah, I I would have to be um the one New Zealand. Yep. Yeah. Out of the bunker. Oh no, Ron. What was that? That’s gone 80 m, man. So this is Mland’s defense. No bunkers, which thinking about becoming a member. No, it’s not me. Oh, that’s not you. Oh, hang on. I hit it further. But their defense is this. You can’t once you’re in here, you you can’t advance it. It’s YouTube. We have a go, don’t we? Having a crack. Like I’ve always said, we’re shooting under. We’re shooting 150. It could be 150. Oh, Ron, this is not the plate. Cover the lens job. Oh man, you get it. Yep. That missed that tree. What? A couple of centimeters. I reckon you’d be just left with the green. I had a bacon egg roll this morning. I thought that was going to come out. Are you pumped to smash the Palms next week? And is cricket your second favorite sport? Yes and yes. Yeah. Um the Palms actually played at uh Cotis. The whole team played actual. Yeah. Stokes not it wasn’t as tall as I thought. Cricketers find like AFL players are bigger than you think and then cricketers are smaller because they’re saying that Marsh is massive. But you know who is tiny? Travis head. Is he? Man just tiny. But batters always are cuz they like that’s why I can’t bat. Yeah. David Warner, he’s tiny. They’re all like little like little nuggets. Yeah. And the bowlers are huge. Yeah. Like me. You’re a spin bowler, aren’t you? Joel Garner. Yeah, mate. I on a good day, I can get them to come backwards into a slide breeze. I got to make sure I’m on like the emergency app like WI emergency. If it’s a total fire bend, no leggies. It’s a bit wet again. Land at the front. Let it roll out, man. Stop. They’re quick. Good chip. [Applause] That’s in the middle. That’s the problem. I’ve been nervous about those ones. That’s how bad me putting me. Now that’s a bit better. Now we’re chipping’s gone. What a game. Why can’t it all just line up? This would be one of my favorite sections of the golf course here. This one? Yeah. Along the river stadium. Got up the stadium in the background. Nice par three coming up. You’d be doing well to get it over there. I get over there. What’s that? Pins this way. 143 m par three. Quirky little hole. Swan River behind. Uh bit of reads to the right. It’s coming, Ron. Good swing. Been a bit funky off of the with everything English. It’s not working for me, man. How bad has my English been lately? I grabbed um I grabbed hammer for two warm beers and then accidentally dropped them and then kicked it. Uh gave it to a couple of boys. Actually gave it a shook. Gave it a shook. Go, go, go. Oh, it sound like green, didn’t it? Yeah. Or water. Mud, right? Got lucky. Nearly went. He stood on me line. That’s That’s me putting line for chipping. Can’t stand in your line when you chip. [Laughter] Oh, sick. The run. All right. Just quickly, can you just like look at the pitch marks that people don’t do? Look at this thing. What are you doing, guys? Not hard. I’ve done about seven so far. Come on. All right, even par. Don’t Oh, thanks, man. You don’t normally make them. Good point. Yeah, I’m even par, but it doesn’t look like even par. A bit of hustling going on. Ding. Have you ever done karaoke? Yeah. Proper? Like at a at a pub? Something? Not a pub. I’ve done it like you book a room like it was like how they do it in [ __ ] in proper proper. Yeah. Where? Uh it’s in North Bridge. Speaking of Northridge. Yep. We need to go for a Korean barbecue, I reckon. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Been a while since I’ve had some horse. All right, we got the six hole par 4 341 m driver out. Yep. I thought you were going to have the Mizo driver. No, cuz the punters picked my bag. Oh, this is the bag they picked. Sorry. I thought they picked the um the Mazuno, but they got the Mizuno irons, Mizuno 2 iron, and then everything else is tail, mate. Okay, I I’ll let them do it. It’s your fault if this doesn’t work. If I miss this fairway, it’s your fault. Good choice. You’ve done well, Pers. I hit this so much lower than the Mazuno when Wait till you see when I’m in Japan. And I hit them as soon. I could even put in the video um with Becca. I reckon the first time you hit that really surprised me. Yeah. Yeah. [Applause] [Applause] Trouble. Sorry. One of the questions was about your jumpers. Uh I noticed that your pre-sale has ended. Yeah. Jumpers went pretty well considering we’re in summer. Too bad if you didn’t get one, you’re going to be bloody chilly on these 40° days. Yeah, it’ll be available again near winter. Well, just giving us a test run to see if anyone wanted these. Are they good? They are actually quite nice. So, can’t buy one now cuz pre-sale is done. No, but come closer to winter, you’ll put them back up again. We’ll do the right thing and bring them out when it’s cold. It is. I I said I asked him, “How are the How are the jumper sails going?” Oh, yeah. like loads loads in um the UK. I wonder why. I’m not a smart man. And I was running 57. I hate this number. And I actually don’t know how. This is what I want to do. I want to go do some practice and work out my wedge distances. Like what is that to that? Is that 50? I’m going to guess right now. Like shoulder height to shoulder height with me lobby is 50 m. I think dark pretty good. That was it. Yep. 50 to 50. I just that went so high. Taking this. I didn’t want to leave that short and I did about 20 foot up the hill. Little left to right. Scoot. What did I call it again? Scotter. You call it shook. Have it a shook. [Music] Oh, shook. Right, Scott. Come on. Go. I don’t think I like patting with the flag in. Do you? Um, I just on YouTube I just get it done. If I’m playing like my local comp as soon as the ball’s on or near the green, take it out. There she goes. Okay. Right. Even par. I’m warming up. Warming up. Might take me jumper off. Might get burnt though. Right. Par 349 out of bounds left. Not thinking about that whatsoever. We’re going to fade again. Okay. Fade. Right. Fade. [Music] like 50 in that mint. I didn’t think about that part. That’s what the pros would do. They would they would sit on this tea and go, I want to be 90 out three iron. Did you not consider not hitting drivers, mate? [Music] Uh, did you ever receive the shoes from Rick Shields? Echo the Echos. Oh. Uh, no. No. But maybe a chance to see him again live. I don’t know. I did see a cheeky comment on your Instagram from him. Yeah, I spelled his name wrong. He gave me a sprite. Yeah. Don’t tell me you wrote a D in there. No, I put S H E I before E except after after Rick. He he goes, “You spelled my name wrong.” And I said to him, “In Australia called Ricky.” And then he read back, “Not me last name, mate.” I was like, “So he doubled down of how incorrect you were.” Yeah. And I thought I’d got him back. No. Oh, you are. This is Yip Station, man. All flop flop. Oh, this is real bad. You don’t want to be here. Little little shoulder to shoulder again. That one. All right. Ready? Quick. I’m I just want to quickly go before. Think about it. Go left. Go left. Raz. It’s on. I need to work on that cuz as a good player, they’d throw it in low with spin. I’ve got the face open. Just going. If you didn’t accidentally just push it to the right, it’s probably in the hole. Do the break. I got to play basketball in Jan. Wildcats game. Wait, what are you filling in? Center. Uh the guy that cuts the oranges in halftime. There you go, boys. You ain’t playing well. What are you doing? Cleans the mouth guard the box. I’ll clean that, mate. There you go. Is the back n harder here? No, the front one’s harder. Yeah, it’s tighter. Yeah. Hold. Wow. Wow. That was quick. That was fast. Hey, couple of couple of good PS there. Got out of jail. 50 m out. Well done, Ron. Big Australian man. Even par. I need some birdies. Okay. 143 m. Tough little par three. Green’s pretty gnarly. Pins left. Can’t go further left than that. 99 smoothie. Right. Turn over. Raz. Ah, just munched it. Uh-oh. I don’t know long’s great here either. I saw the trainee plate here. This was the hole that had the biggest scores on it. Really? Yeah. Think about that when I was tearing off. I’m on the green. They look like it rolled over the back. Push up. Push up. Look at that in some sides. Oh man, hit it. I nearly missed that. You want to talk about it? Bit tired. Not a hammy. How far was that to get to the car? 40 m. 140. Will we ever see a video of you competing in a professional tournament? Oh, man. Shouldn’t I? No. What do you mean? Which one? What do you mean? I reckon I I was thinking about playing like proams and stuff. Oh, yes. start with that and then just see how I go. But like actually put some time into it and practice maybe but you know if we create that series say it’s like an eight part series swing. I love it. Love it man. Let’s start. Let’s see how much money I make. Negative. It will. What’s fuel cost? Like we’re we’re out of pocket. We There’s not a chance I would break even. But even the guys the guys that win events if they don’t play well on the others at the end of that swing would be lucky to break even. You Yeah. Normally on the prom. Well, the best score I’ve seen, Becca had a field day last year, man. He shot nine under at Quana and now holds the course record. Yeah. So, nine under, but it’s normally around that four, fiveish money. Yeah. Oh. Oh, no. No, not to win money. Like two under is winning your money, I think. Yeah. I still need to practice to get that those sort of numbers. Yeah. Yeah, I know. Oh, god. Okay. Well, it says 178, but I measured 153 to that flag. Going to go 99 again. Fade. fade. It’s not a 9 iron, is it? It’s not a 9 iron, mate. Unless it goes long, then it was a 9 iron. 157 8 I goes long. Joel’s fault. I’m having a man here. B. Oh, there’s an eight on be cool. Why don’t you ever replace divots? That’s a criminal offense in New Zealand. So, every green keeper in Australia will tell you to chop it in the sides and then put some sand in the middle. So, that’s what I do. When you see me whacking it down, chopping in the grass and sides and then put a bit of sand. Spot on. And another there’s multiple reasons, but a a main reason is when they don’t sand it properly and they leave the sound and it’s a bit of a mound like that. When the mowers go through, the blades hit it and then not only is it hitting the blades and it’s not actually fixing the course, it’s financially costing because then the blades need sharpening then replacing more often. So if you just chop them in, no sand, no blades, no issue. Do it properly. Yeah. Throwing it in. Or is he talking about he’s about like when you hit a big fillet and then you go get it and you put it back in. Oh, so okay. So in summer you can you definitely replace it because it’ll grow back in. In winter it’ll just go yellow and die off and then eventually just be a hole and then never be fixed and it look worse. Yeah, I reckon. Yeah, definitely. N bump and run. Play well everyone. Good luck. Far out. I suck at chipping. I just get yippy. You should have grabbed the 3-wood. the bump and run freewood that you’ve got in the bag at the moment. Yeah, that actually was the play, wasn’t it? No, Ron, what was that? I need this to drop otherwise I’m over path of the front nine and I’m probably lucky to be one over. Been a bit funky. Come on, make this wrong. Oh my god, I keep doing that. One over. Bugger. One over. I’ve warmed up now. It’s not even 7:00 a.m. It’s still 6. What is it? 7:00 a.m. It’s 7:00 a.m. That’s a quick nine holes. How fast have we played that? I think uh hour 15. Hour. Yeah. Hour 10. Far out. Okay. All right. Come on, Ron. Under par in the back nine. How far? Okay. 10th hole. 362 m. Hardest hole in the course. Gun barrel. Is it? Yeah, it is. I’m calling it. So straight out of bounds left, push right. Driver. Very good. I hit this so low, don’t I? So low. Another one of these little dinky. You reckon at the third time I’d get used to this? That one. That’s it. Shoulder to shoulder. Perfect. Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Raz. I just felt like I got here and then the Australian in me, the the big Australian took over and I just gave it a bit extra. Oh, come on. All right, I got to get one of these. Another four. I’ll take that on the hardest hole in Australia. Peace. Goals for the channel in 2026. Um I think to go overseas more, like actually maybe go to the States would be amazing. Yep. Like link up with um some the big dogs. I guess that’s I think the way you grow in this game. Y limited in Australia, especially in Perth. We live on the other side of where anyone else is. Be realistic. Pick two people in 2026 that you would like to film with that you haven’t filmed with before. But be realistic. Peter Finch. Yep. Wouldn’t mind those. You know those guys in the UK, the four brothers or whatever. I reckon I reckon that would be fun. No, you’re leaning towards the UK a bit. Yeah. What about Mo? He messages all the time, doesn’t he? Mo. Yeah. Yeah. He’s going through some stuff right now. I’ll wait for that to blow over and then we’ll we’ll come back. Poor bloke. Par 4 286. I can get there. Mhm. Might be a 3-wood to get there. Wind’s helping. I think it’s 3-wood. Pin is back on the old Bobby. Ricky Bobby, right. Oh, wind’s up a clacker here. Big big Bobby. Big Bobby. I’m up. I think you’ve gone through the green. Maybe fire that came out there like the meat and veg. Favorite current swing in pro golf? That’s a question. My favorite golf swing in current golf. Um, Aberg. Oh, okay. Yep. I think that’s just very repeatable looking golf swing. Rory’s amazing, but man, no one can really replicate that. That’s full on. I think cuz I have such a bad swing, every swing I look at is good. Yeah. Not like people with ugly swings send it to me and go, “What do you think of this?” It’s like, “Yeah, mint.” Looks great, man. Did it go straight? Good swing. Yeah. All right. Overpowered this green now. A little delicate chip. Little open face little 54 in. Oh man, I thought it was money. I just hit that little lip. Great drive. Woo! Hit it! What am I scared of? Oh, it might make a birdie. What am I scared of? Okay, I thought 10 was a hard hole. I forgot about this one. This is a doozy. R4 that swings around water. You got to thread it off the tea. If I par this, I’ll be bloody stoked. Draw. Draw. Oh no. Oh, maybe. Wow, that’s a long way. Okay, I think I’m all right. If your UK trip is still going ahead next year, what courses slash areas are you looking to play? We basically going to make it our mission to go to the UK this year or sorry, next year in July. Would love to go see the Open. Just a a bucket list thing. Go to the Open. Um, and then basically play as much golf as we can, link up with as many guys as we can, ladies, doesn’t matter. Um, courses, I don’t know. Imagine the old course or something. Is it is that a possibility? Like, can can we just say, “Hey, can we film a video at the old course?” Is it is it a thing? Oh, I feel like you need to know someone. I feel like if you knew someone like Rick Shields and say, “Hey, we’re filming an Ashes series.” Yeah. Imagine that. Could you imagine man getting flogged by Rick at the old course? I reckon he’d proper proper do you link links? Yeah, I reckon he would 100% own you. You see how low I hit it? Yeah, but that’s when you’re trying to hit it high. Oh yeah. [Music] Trees in me way. I got to hit a little fade. Yuck. I can’t hit the fade. I can hit the sling. All right, we’ll give this a crack. Here we go. Oh, I can hear the plane. Oh, sure. It’s a bit scutty. Oh, there is a plane. That plane came right in as me in the air. All right, I’m just going to put the N back of the stance. Little trappy and like a tie spinner. Make it go like like just down hard and go and spin up. Ready? Yeah. Oh man. Checked up nicely. Yeah, I I play that forward a lot, but I put that back a bit more just to make it check up. Another par. Take it on this hole. I said on the tea, I’ll take a p 147 m par three wind straight up the graham. I’m going to go pitchy wedge. Just throw it up in the air. If I get a hole in one, that’s it. That’s the rule, I think. Blanket rule for all videos. We just stop after the hole in one. Yeah, I agree. It’s a 64 off the stick. Yeah. Cool. Tried. I was really trying to hold that. Yeah. Yes. Okay. I’m due one of these. I am due a part. Come on, Scott. Should move that leaf back. That’s good by you, though. I’m hit. So, when I had um the the ZT and I had the spider, like all that going on down the bottom and I just didn’t trust where it was going to come out. Whereas with with a blade, the strokes a bit funky. I definitely But I just where it aims is sort of where it goes. Does that make sense? It does, but I couldn’t trust all that brick at the bottom. Give me a couple weeks and I’ll be back to that. Probably one of the nicer tea boxes here in Oh, yeah. Wa. This when I was driving here, this was the T-shot I was worried about. I think everyone who plays here, this is a bit dicey cuz all those pegs are out of bounds. Although, as you can see, so you just got to thread a drive and the fairways. Ready? You got nine eye in though. Oh, if you catch one. Yeah, I’m good to go. Oh, like that was a punch shot. I literally feel like I went I’m in play so far. Uh, favorite video you have recorded. Most fun you’ve had. Oh, that’s a good question. Okay. The probably my the favorite one was the first time we played with um Champs. Oh, man. Because I didn’t expect that at all. I knew champs um I didn’t actually had no idea what was about to happen and just was one of the funniest rounds I’ve ever played. I think there’s a direct link between how good or bad you play to how much fun we have. When you’re playing good, the fun goes out the door and I’m concentrating on the cinema, making sure I’m getting the shots and stuff, but like when you played Lynx Kennedy Bay and you and you caught had a triple on the first, that was that was probably some of the most fun I’ve had cuz we just golf went out the window. Yeah, golf’s gone, man. Let’s just have I think that’s what you’re going to do. If you’re having a bad day, you just got to go bugger this. Let’s have some fun because you’re going to spend 4 hours out there. You might as well. And you’ve paid your money. Where else have you played really bad where you’ve shot a big number? Oh, Mount Broton. Oh, we didn’t have fun that day, though. That day? I was I was just We changed the stable food. The train beeping in me swing was the funniest thing that happened, I reckon. [Applause] Big swirly fade with the five iron. Not the fade. Not with out of bounds left. This is a scary shot. Go. Go. [Applause] Pretty good. Just short. Take that. That’s scary with that those pegs. There was no fade. Just straight. That makes that makes me nervous. I thought I played the big It’s a great shot. Thank you. Another tie spinner. Come on. Just like one inch. It it checked up by too steep on it early. When when I come to public courses, it’s the par fives I should be just ripping and I haven’t done it once again. But this could be the first one. Come on, you big Australian man. Burger wasn’t bad. P. It wasn’t bad. The chip was terrible. I should have chipped it. I’ll chip for the rest of the time. Okay. Promise. Yeah. No more tie spinners. They’re not working. Okay. 15 363 m index one. Hardest hole in Australia. Dead straight again. I don’t like straight holes. That’s actual garbage. I was actually confident over that. I just loosey goosey crap. Why not try get on tour? Can’t do that. It’s so It’s so cutthroat. You cannot do that. Oh, there’s water in there. Oh, I didn’t go that bad. Did I? Oh, no. No. I think you’re past the water, but you just cannot do that. You can’t make mistakes. Um, even people trying to get on tour, like if you’re younger, this sounds pretty brutal, but honestly, if you’re not at your home club, like tour, if you’re not off plus six plus better, like not don’t want to shatter anyone’s dreams, but there that good. You have to be off that sort of handicap. I ain’t off plus six. What’s your thoughts on what’s your thoughts on Oh, you’ve got to I’ve got a gap. Um, like playing away and then playing at home. Oh, you got to go away. That’s the thing. You got to play away a lot more than you are. Play tournaments, play open events, and then you’ll see what level you’re at. If you can’t beat those guys, then the next level’s harder and then the next level’s harder and then the tour level is just ridiculous. So, yeah. Okay. So, to play wouldn’t be here, but is I’m going have to hit the biggest sling you’ve ever seen. No. Yeah, the green. I lost it. But that was incredible. I can do that bait. Not so good. I’m fine. Tour tour. I mean, there’s like there’s no bunkers, but they get you in different ways here. Okay, we’re going to go a bump and run. Pretty lucky to be here. That’s That’s a big slinger. That was a career best sling out of that bush. Come on, bump and run it. The other bump and Oh, no. The other bumper runs have been skidding on and that one doesn’t. I don’t know. Tie spinner. Please hit it. Please hit it. [Applause] That was going near your ball, mate. [Applause] Boie. Two over, three to play. Good chip. That tie spinner is being money today. Checked up real quick. Yeah, see last is like bounce bounce bounce whack and then check. 165 m. Uh, I’m going to hit eight on. I need to go birdie birdy birdie birdie. Are you ready? Strap yourselves in. There’s not even that many holes left to play. One, two, three. Yeah, you said four birdies, I think. Did I? Eagle. Double birdie. Double birdie. [Applause] I’m taking that. That’s a good shot. Very good. That’s a great shot. Yeah. Well done, mate. Operation four birdies in a row in the last three. Come on. One. One. One. I should just try and make birdies all the time, I reckon. Okay, I’ve just made a birdie. I’ve just lost 3 kilos, right? I need to go birdie birdie. Come on, Rob. Oh, that’s not good. I need to hit a fade. These hooks are killing me. We have So, through December, hopefully all the Japan stuff’s coming out. Um, we’re going to the PGA in Brisbane. Yes. So, we’re going to be in the the party hall on the 17th. I think we’re hosting it or I don’t know. We’re there. Um, but while we’re in Brisbane, we’re going to play a couple of courses. I want to play somewhere different that we haven’t played. Everyone keeps talking about Sanctuary. Sanctuary. Yep. So, I think that’s more Gold Coast though. Oh, is it drive? Yeah, we’ll go have a look. just like my sanctuary and maybe another one on the gold. This is where they filmed the Blair Witch Project. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Stay there. I nearly put on the green. Got dust in me eyes. No, we’re all right. Another tie spinner. I don’t hit many greens, do I? How many times have I had to do this? Come on. This has to go in. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Pinned. It didn’t catch a groove. You know what it is? As soon as I hit him soft, I’ve been just whacking him in and as soon as I just bail out of it. Gross. You’re on. Okay, this is going to be the biggest drive you’ve ever seen. Ever. Ever. There’s a question. What is the biggest drive you’ve seen on your channel? Zack Kelly. Yeah, Zach could give it a hit. Um, Big Red gives it a nudge. It eats it really high. It looks high. It looks long. It’s not that It’s not that long. be great strike, please. No shock and bounce. Firm fairways. Eh, I feel like the next shot could be the old leg back, though. Oh, wow. You are okay. Wow. I’ve had a long way now. Holy smokes, man. Far out. How far have I got in? 425 from 100 325 m drive leg back. Yeah, they’re firm fairways. Yeah, that took a big mouth. Landed at 220. 325 m drive. Maybe you’re the biggest hitter on the on the channel. I’m trying to tell you, you see Big Red and you go, “Wow, look at him.” And then he hits it like this and he yells a bit and then you go, “Wow.” And then I come along and just But it’s cuz you’re just like smooth and slow. In my head I’m like and I watch it back and then I’m like Big you laughing at my automobile. Is this the best car? Okay, the trees are in the way, but I reckon I could back put me sandwiched here and sling it. This is going to be the lowest one of them. Ready? Yeah. Where’d it go? Where’d it go? Where’d it go? I have no idea. Did I shank it? Have I shanked it? No, it started going left. You had to have just hit trees and dropped. Oh, the ball in the green. Jos, where’d it go? Soon as I hit it, I’d lost it. I was zoomed in on the flag, so if it’s gone in the hole, we’ve at least captured that. But you had to have gone long then. It’s 100 m. Hey, where’s your actual ball? Oh, it’s back of the green. Oh, I’ve overdone it. Okay, scoot. I’m just calling it scooter. I’m putting me foot down. Me tongue got stuck on the first time I said it. It’s called scooter. Scoo me, Cameron. Come on. Gave it to a couple of boys. They should gave it a shook. Pretty good. I’d never chip it that close. No. Far out that tie spinner. Excuse me, Cameron. That was better. As always, if this misses, we just cut it. Thank you to Mland for having us out here first thing in the morning. This is to finish the series one over. That sucks. That’s painful. Ron. Oh god. Got haircut before I hit that. All right. One over. I’ll take that. Bit messy, wasn’t it? That’s golf. That’s golf. There we go. Thanks for watching. Subscribe to the channel. [Music] Gave it to a couple of boys. She gave it a shook.
Ron currently sits at even par after his first 3 rounds on Perth’s local publiv courses. Today he try’s to finish under par at Maylands Golf Course

Ron Chopper v's Peter Finch would break the internet!
🤣Straight after telling 20 handicappers to think about and improve their short game, you do this… Hit it short (oh, because the sprinklers are on and the grass is wet…), then hit the chip long (oh, because the sprinklers are on and the ball's wet/not spinning…). Get a new caddie Ronald… 😜 (only laughing because that's what I do too 😔)…
you may be a mirrored right handed bubba watson.
You Need to go down to Denmark in WA and play the course there. It is a real challenge, and well worth the drive to get there.
Maaaate, you gottta get out and practice the chips man…😔
PS: A nine iron is not a wedge… Just sayin…
Comments may seem negative, but no hate here mate; love your stuff!
Golfbox. Send Ron to shorteesgolf
Swear to god, if you don't learn to bloody chip…. Joel, can you please shook him up and make it happen?
15:36 🤮
"SCOTTA"…….. SCOTTA go in!!
If you’re looking for another course on the Gold Coast. Links hope island is a gorgeous course
Love your work but we need more quality golf not just get pissed buddies
Those greens a disgraceful
Bryan bros has to be up there for a collab at their golf course
Been just loving the comedic aspect of the videos lately. No other golf channel has me genuinely laughing over some of the silliest things. Onya Ron
When people tell you to visualize your shot it's exactly that lob wedge through the tree gap. That's what they mean.
What the hell is that "cat noise"?
In Australia are there courses that attract a clientele that refuses to fix divots and ball marks? We have those morons escorted from and banned from returning.
However, I've played courses where putting up signs, having half a dozen roving marshalls, wouldn't change behavior.🤷
All this talk on Japan but no real proof.
Don’t think it happened.
Where’s the videos??? 😂😂
Funny thing, I personally know the train driver who beeped you. She couldn’t resist.
Forebrothers would be hilarious 👌🙏
34:00 Joelly boy there's no way Ron is losing at St Andrews to Rick it's wide open unlike the Grand and he can putt from 50 out if he wants. Rick would bottle it on his home soil just like the poms did in 2 days in the Perth test!
Mate. One of the TOP channels. Your ability to golf combined with the commentary to Ron in the 3rd person, and Jeol's (hope you get that poke from the "shiels debacle"') banter. Just class. I love what you guys put together SO much.
Also – just want to point out – with your new putter… "Scotta" – you 2-putt almost EVERYTHING.
Give it time for the feel to come in and you'll shave 3-4 strokes every round. Much MUCH better than any putter I've seen you use, as far as consistency goes.
Cheers from the US.

Definitely would enjoy a colab with Bob does sports. You guys in a drinking challenge would be the best
gud work soldiers. thank you for your service
Hole 4 you listed as a par (5) but it was a bogey (6)
My brother used to work at this course – I spent the best part of a month here and they literally sorted me out with clubs and use of the course and facilties the entire time I was there and I didn't have to pay a bean – amazing people
The pitch marks were fucking diabolical, what are they doing over there. mongs
Try and get a hit with Jason Day. Surely he will support an Aussie and he plays with a few of the big dog YouTubers like Horvat and the Bryan Bros.
Would actually love to see you play a 2 ball ambrose with yourself and try break some course records.
Joel, speaking of the ugliest swing in golf. Have you actually seen yours 😂
If you went toUK next year you would beat Rick Shields hands down,as long as you just play golf and have your super caddie with you
Nice intro 🙂
7:32 What about 54 Hadicap down to a 36, more beers and another 2k on clubs?
Become a member of Coober Pedy, they're a sister club of St Andrews.
I'd love to see you with Bob Does Sports
Gutted you are going to the UK in July, I am heading west (very west, I now live in NZ) to catch up with my brothers in Mandurah and was going to book a lesson just to meet you 😁. But will just have to suffer through some great UK vids instead.
Rick shields could probably get you on any course in the UK, Dan hendriksen could get you on st.mellion, Danny Elder could get you on Carnoustie, Peter finch could probably get you on most course's as well . Trump course's are the best Aberdeen, Turnberry. Couple of suggestions for you.
Would be great to see at Solina Golf Course with the Bryan Brothers
Worst bit about all those pitch marks? Evidence of all the people that actually hit the green.
Those unrepaired pitch marks are diabolical
Ron come over to Byron Bay, beautiful golf course, Ocean Shores just up the road, and plenty of connections here to give you and Joely the VIP experience at the most Easterly golf course in Australia
Hit a bloke with my tee shot while he was walking his dog (right in the back of the neck), warned him I was shite and told him to wait and he said I couldn’t hit me if I tried and completely ignored me.
Needless to say, the best shot I’ve ever hit, unintentionally. 😂😂😂
Play Altone 😆 or embleton if you wanna feel like a boss 😂😂😂
