Your Golfing Youtubers

Peter Finch is a great presenter and talks through things well - always my go to guy

Rick Shiels is good but repetitive - accidentally gets on your nerves sometimes

Teeuplo makes me laugh all the time
 
I've mentioned before, I don't know why I don't like myself for enjoying them but I do. I think they are great. Garyinderry summed it up nicely in that its basically a golf channel! It's good in the Winter evenings to watch them whilst the missus is watching whatever guff she watches.

The only video's I do not watch are the "oooooo look what free swag we have been given now". The "unboxing" of all the awesome free clothing, shoes, clubs they get sent to use. Yes, I admit, its part jealousy but also blatant marketing that I don't want to be taken in by.
 
To ease me through the winter i found a couple of youtubers from down under that do course logs:

aussie golf reviewer - the latest vlogs have flightscope data on some holes as well as drone shots
the journey - this is more of an acquired taste and possibly not work safe

There is something about seeing a kangaroo on a course that makes smile.

agreed 100%

I mean, yes, Crossfield is a bit of a marmite character, I normally don't watch him, and if I do, he does get on my nerves quickly, but there is no doubt he is a very hard working and knowledgeable guy who invests a lot of time and effort into his channel. This guy, on the other hand, is just pathetic. I didn't even manage to watch more than 2 minutes of his video before I had to turn it off. Unbelievable.

Think Crossfield's gripe is that GM follow this guy, who publicly abuses MC's family, on twitter.

If so, they should be thoroughly​ ashamed of themselves. Being associated with this kind of nonsense is not big or clever. Whatever were they thinking of?

I'm not a big crossfield fan...but that guy is seriously overstepping the mark.

Shouldn't be involving family etc.

As far as I can make out, Today's Golfer have also been chewed out for following this individual. I wouldn't normally take an interest, but the concept of social media connections is an area of research that I'm interested in. So, from arguments formed by TG staff, Donald Trump and similar 'controversial' types are followed by millions of people- doesn't mean that you agree with them.

However, this is a very clear case of some people following a twitter account which is designed exclusively to abuse a golf professional. Fair enough if it was a case of an account being critical of an individual- I'm all up for debate. But the content on this person's page is quite disgusting.
