Enjoyed the 1st Shiels vid since his liv sign-up. Bit like teaser content rather than what he says we'll get through the season but Rahm & Brooks were good and engaging
Just watched it after giving Shiels a miss for quite a while - was enjoyable and also thought that Brooks was a lot more likeable than his PGA image.

Likewise, the last thing I recall watching was that good one when a pro plays 9 with a sport direct half set or similar. Recent vid was watchable, nothing groundbreaking but I wasn't distracted away either. And reassuring to see he still has a bigger duck hook than I in his locker !
Seen a few similar comments about Koepka. Maybe for those who have watched him a bit more the last few years it wasn't really much different.
 
I got bored after 10 minutes 🤣
Is he a professional comedian or something?
He started off doing 'tips' on Instagram and the like, but they were jokey ones - like fatting a full swing 4 iron for a greenside chip and so on. People are still not sure now if he's actually a good player having us on or not. His mate in the vids is Robin Matthews-Williams, who had a bit of a following himself a while back, but then disappeared for a while. So he's possibly used some nous to get his mate to go viral for a laugh, who knows.

I always thought he was a good player pretending to be bad from the shorts on YouTube. But watching the course vlog I’m not so sure. He is hilarious and entertaining though.

Ask Golf Nut interesting on the movement of Shiels' subscribers. Seems to be an automated decrement running that removes 1 at set intervals. Then it reaches a threshold and jumps back 3330 subcribers in a jolt at that point. Bizzarro indeed.
 
He’s already recorded with Joaco under the lights in Riyadh, not sure if that goes live before the start tomorrow or not but it should be an interesting watch, and of course, probably opens Ricks channel up to new viewers from South America and Chile.

2 hours - if the wife wasn't away in Spain I'd be telling her to come round with the ice creams half way through... 🤣

 
Mega improvement in the quality of his videos already, the editing and wee touches are a million times better than even his stuff 6 months ago.
Obviously ££££.
Brooks/Rahm and Niemann have been great watches so far. Niemann a bit long though, needs to try keeping them to the hour long mark.

Yeah, there was a real trend towards these two hour vids last year. I have several in my 'watch later' list that have been there for 8 or 9 months now that I haven't got round to watching. I could do them in half-hour stages but I'd probably forget to go back and finish them.

Yeah too long for the one go I’d say mate but the numbers do say otherwise too, the viewcount on some of these channels and 2 hour plus videos are mad.
I even think an hour is a stretch.

Erik anders lang is probably one of my favourites as a lot of his are 20/30 minute episodes

You can watch it at x1.25 speed, which brings an hour-long video down to 48 minutes. But they all look like they have breakneck swingspeed and babble through conversations like they're on cocaine. 😄 On the longer ones I sometimes watch them on that speed.

On mobile and computers you can set it to x1.15 or x1.2 which sounds alright, but annoyingly on iPad the only options are 1, 1.25 or 1.5 etc. Unless my iPad just isn't updating the app.
 
Watching long videos on a computer is much easier.

Hover the cursor over the timeline to see a thumbnail of what's happening at that point.
Skip the intro and start where you want.
Watch the first hole or two, if it's not grabbing you just skip a few more holes or even jump to the last 5 minutes to see the result.

But my favourite feature is the right arrow key which jumps the video on by 5 seconds, you can so easily skip the mindless chatter and get to the shot or whatever., I think my right arrow key will be worn out soon.
