These are a good watch for anyone that haven't already seen.

Ive actually watched a few vlogs this week mostly Shiels and Finch.

Have actually turned off Crossfield a bit but I cant help thinking they all are a bit irritating and its all so bloody slow.

Watched them both with Shane Lowry at Bearwood lakes and Finch actually went to pot in the presence of greatness.
Im starting to warm to Lowry

Enjoyed the first 10 minutes but needs to be better edited as it started to drag after a while, turned off halfway through.

Watched both parts so far and really enjoyed them. All the vlogs I watch are Shiels and Finch, I like the banter they have and they both swing a decent bat!

Watched all 3 ,Shiels has a terrible short game for a pro

I hope these 4 make more vlogs together as they actually played some good golf in these vids and they all got along with some cheekiness too. Buzza is the king of cringe haha.

Best match blog! I have gone off this stuff but this was a good match up and great golf. Enjoyed!

Rick Sheils makes me cringe! I just can't watch him. Buzza seems like a really nice fella, but not cut out for telly I'm afraid.

 

[Capella]

How can anyone not like Rick? He's like the nicest guy on this planet. I like all four of them, I must admit and was really happy to see them play together and obviously liking each other. I'm totally course vlog addicted and will watch a vlog over any movie or tv series out there.

Watching a lot of Finch & Sheils just now. Agree that Sheils short game needs work (especially if he wants to get anywhere near The Open)
Love watching Pete Finch's swing and seems a really decent guy - his dad is a gent !
Agreed that Buzza is King of Cheese, and I think Pickard would be good craic over a couple of pints.
Although Crossfield is annoying, I am actually enjoying him and Lockey's course vlogs from Turkey - they are actually a good double act and are like little schoolboys being allowed inside the ropes.

I'm enjoying it !! Now the nights are in, and I'm down to 1 game a week, I must admit to clawing at anything golf related on the web/tv at the minute to get my fix......I even watch Crossfield/Lockey despite the stupid and incessant 'walkmyputt' type catchphrases

Closest they'll get to the open in being given tickets to watch.

Not even close to being good enough to compete.

Loved the North v South series. Not watching as much of Crossfield in Turkey, but I thought the 18 holes with Westwood were fascinating. It took a bit too long to get Lee involved, but seeing the difference between a Tour Pro and a teaching pro up close made for a great series.

His short game was so much sharper in that where Crossfield might chip and leave himself a tricky par putt, Lee would nearly always get it inside gimme range, but where his game stood out for me was length off the tee. Consistently 20-30 yards past Crossfield, and who among us wouldn't shoot lower scores if we were 2 clubs nearer on every hole?

I cant watch Crossfield, he just irritates me and is a little to animated for me. Reminds me of a childrens TV presenter.

Shiels and Finch are the only two guys that i subscribe to and watch pretty much every day when they have new vids coming out. I agree that Rick's short game is about as good as mine and thats worrying, also the amount that he changes that putter cant help him. They both seem like really nice blokes and buzza is good craic aswell.

Their short games need serious work to get to that level, but they remain golfing heroes of my daughter

Peter Finchs swing is a joy to watch and is the best player out of the 2, Buzza puts out some good stuff especially the games with the students some cracking players at that Uni. Shiels just irritates the hell out of me these days just can't put my finger on a specific thing but he does.

Ye this says a lot I think. Great pic. You get the feeling these guys will not change. Just good honest, excited golfing folk. I think thats why this match was so good. No BS just fun and golf.

 

[Alex1975]

I actually think Rick has been playing better than Pete for a little while now.

I spotted them in the PGA tent at St Andrews and the security guys was kind enough to let us in to say hello.
I introduced my daughter as their youngest fan and they treated her like a star, especially when they heard she had tried a driver for the first time at the interactive fan zone. Joking that she could hit if further than dad ( cue high fives etc..)
Complete gentlemen.

I enjoy most of the youtube vlogger except;

The northern accent - sorry northerners you all sound like a donkey braying to me.
Insert "my" into a phrase rubbish
the live shows - normally because of the innane and stupid people that comment.
