Round 2 – This 9 hole golf course shocked us…Waterfront Golf Club

Episode 2 – Waterfront Golf Club (Barnsley)

I have challenged myself to getting ranked in the Top 10 Youtube Golfers UK!
To do this, we need to score some 9 hole rounds, and play some 9 hole matches!

In today’s video we’re playing our second handicap counting card on a brutally windy day at Waterfront Golf Club!

Come and join us, as we relearn to play golf! I am a golf pro after all, so I’m sure lots of good golf course management and tips will be learnt from watching a golf pro playing golf up close!

After scoring a battling 2 over par at Rotherham Golf Club, there’s a lot to be improved!

  1. Very nice round particularly in those conditions. Love this type of content. Also great work by Dan in this vid. I would bet these playing vlogs will sharpen your game. This is much better viewing than a bland review of a club sent to you from the Acme Corporation.

  2. Great vid Gaz.
    Get yourself a Garmin watch or hand held GPS. The S12 or G12 are both sub 150 quid. Have 30hrs in gps mode and show distances to water and hazards. (Please note I'm not sponsored 😂and have the S12 watch. Its so light i thought it was a fake when i got it)

  3. Gauging distance is a lost skill, useful in the UK as wind and other conditions so affect the result. I was taught there is always at least 3 clubs for every shot, knock downs as an example are underused in winter golf.

  4. Don't be so hard on yourself, Gary. Look at what you were up against.
    1) Cold temps
    2) High winds
    3) Bouncy greens
    4) two or three other issues that I won't mention.
    Quite frankly I'm not sure how you content guys in the UK do it. With the litany of issues you were having to contend with I think you did really well with that score. You're not, however, going to get an accurate perspective of your handicap rating until you play on quality courses.

  5. Hard to believe that you passed on the opportunity to use a GPS phone app. That's what I used, as I can't hold a range finder steady enough…which saved me a few hundred quid! 😁

  6. Great round Gaz and you kept yourself together and remained calm, loved the first two and I’m looking forward to watching more of these

  7. Got to be a few more courses around the doncaster area that would let you on for the filming of nine holes. Especially during the week.

  8. Get a trip to Suffolk organised, Felixstowe, Woodbridge, Ipswich & Aldeburgh, all great courses with cracking greens

  9. This was fun to watch. Wonderful playing vlog. Everything flowed nicely. I enjoyed the brief discussions concerning shot/club selection on each hole.

  10. I’m in Rotherham on Friday afternoon and Saturday afternoon if you want beat – I’ll pack the clubs give me 12 shots – 11.1hcp

  11. Thats great you're learning more about your game when you have these rounds you press yourself on. Sometimes it seems you're enjoying the game less, during…which is kind of a lesson of expectation in all of us. How to try and treat competitive and fun rounds the same mentally? Maybe. I'm trying to figure out for myself if expectations put upon me by myself or others are ever a good thing…

  12. Enjoyed this Gaz as you were on a course I’ve played after having a lesson from Chris on putting.
    Very enjoyable course to play and good facilities as you mentioned.

  13. Looked like a good test of golf in those conditions, and with no range finder, you were playing off instinct and experience which obviously worked and proved to be right, keep going and you will be up that leaderboard in no time

  14. Good round, I was happy with my 6 over I shot there yesterday as a 18 handicap I think it’s a very challenging 9 hole course, nearly all par 4s are like par 5s to me specially in winter, unfortunately I don’t carry my driver 260 like yourself so makes it very long for me. I enjoyed watching you play somewhere I play

  15. Na then, who's tha.blert int shorts and tee shirt ffs…must be one O Yarkshire Reds!😂😂 BTW tha nar way Dan is off 6….16? 😂
