Not when RUclips is my business and it’s a way to free advertise. It’s marketing! Pretty simple and logical. But you know what thought did, eh?

@@robpottergolf ok 😂

Troon was truly fantastic. I couldn’t agree more pal. That’s some going on the Sim. I’d take that and run to the hills

Yeah I always do it to be fair

Well the 17th at Sale is our version of the Postage Stamp. It’s a nice controlled 9i with no wind for me at 117yd

@robpottergolf very nice mate, are you at the open all weekend or where you there before hand?

Technology has changed and improved as well pal. But I’ve certainly improved technique etc, which has added to a little bit of distance. 👍🏻

@@robpottergolf very nice! Have not seen you in years and feels like catching up with an old friend! Not that you are old or my friend but, great to see you! 😅

😂😂😂 honestly mate, going to Dan Grieves Short Game School last year is the single best thing in golf I’ve been taught. His RUclips channel is a must watch 👍🏻

Cheers Pete. Hope you’re well, pal

Now that is interesting pal 👍🏻 Wasn’t aware of that at all.

Coz he chose to wear it!. Hasn’t realised the Paris Fashion week judges had such an interest, in the golf apparel, of RUclips presenters 😂😂😂

Cheers pal. Please give it a like and a share. More we can get watching it, the more it grows the channel, community and shows just how good Shannon GC is 👍🏻

Hopefully more to come, Mark

Yeah they are Joe. These are a compact ‘players’ iron for sure. Those i525’s are great

@@robpottergolf You don’t seem to be having any problems with them. 👍

They are, aren’t they?

Cheers big man! Means a lot. If you can please share the link 👍🏻 Hope you’re well?

I’m mega impressed with them. Can’t wait to do some more testing with different shafts

Cheers pal. Much more to come mate, so please keep following me and you’ll see all the notifications of new releases

Cheers Lee. Means a lot pal.

😂😂😂 good luck with that

@@robpottergolf on it's way, still loves me after 40 yrs

Thats brilliant to hear!!!! Like I said in the vlog, the Triple D is just a seriously enhanced version of my Cobra F9. So that’s still a big possibility for me

I’m toying with the idea of changing from 60g to 50g shaft kinda like the lighter driver

Cheers pal 👍🏻

It was an honour and a privilege to share the Links with Adam & you. And then the following day with Nev, as the additional extra at The Heritage was just class. Gutted we were a shot or two shy of getting to La Cala! Same time next year? 😜 I’ll be over again soon. I’m gonna enter one of the Wednesday Open Singles comps, if you boys fancy joining me for some twilight golf after you finish work?

Well you’re welcome to come and come give us all the facts and schematics for the next vlog. Happy to have a ‘Statto’ section. Could prove to be popular.

😂

Wowser!!! I car doesn’t get to 3500rpm 😂😂😂 A proper fitting makes such a difference. Was it done at a standard retail store, originally? 250yd rolling to 270yd is the stuff dreams are made of, for me! Top man 👍🏻

@@robpottergolf I’m not that quick swing speed stock swing speed is circa 98mph. Before with a light shaft I was only carrying it 235. Because of the spin. But now because I had a proper fitting it’s so much better. The fitter originally wasn’t a pga pro it’s only a small shop, advised me to go for a faster shaft weighing 45g stating it was a ping no flex or auto flex shaft. I was swinging it quicker but high spinny flight. In the wind it was horrendous. I’m not sure how it works I didn’t think shaft makes much difference but it’s massive. Plus I feel as though I have so much more control. It’s going further even though I’m swinging it slower.

Thanks

I’ve got it set with the heavy weight at the back and the lesser weight forward so I get the spin. But I did have it set up the other way around when I first bought the F9 in 2019 and it was low spinning and ran forever on firm fairways.

@@robpottergolf yeah that’s what I’m after, I’m spinning my current driver at circa 3k but I’m not fitted. It’s an autoflex shaft g430lst. But I’ve heard that this particular cobra is very good.

I need to squeeze another 10yd carry I feel but keep the dispersion tight like I normally am. It’s a tough balance to get right.

Cheers Will

That’s Señor Bandit to you, my friend 😂😂😂

It’s something we’re looking at doing

Cheers pal. I’ve been struggling with it if I’m honest, and these reviews so far haven’t put the clubs in the best light, if truth be told

Interesting - crazy how people have different experiences with different clubs. Cheers for the comment buddy 👍🏻

Ping are known to be a little shorter off the tee, but if you’re fitted properly then it hooking badly shouldn’t be an issue, I wouldn’t think. Did you buy it straight off the rack?

@@robpottergolf yeah I bought it off the rack. Of course I was hitting it well on the simulator at the store that day lol. I’m going to get fitted with it soon though and will try playing with different shafts/settings and see if I can straighten it out. I think it has a natural draw bias off the rack and I already hit a draw so I’m fighting it

Yeah it’ll be fun to play with some up-market shafts and see what more I can get out of the LS, coz that shouldn’t suit me at all

The DarkSpeed is seriously stunning mate. All 3 models really are. The next review coming up is a good’un 👍🏻 Cheers for your support as always

I felt the same mate. I was stunned how it performed. Ok I had one that was like 1300 spin which was insane and literally chilly dipped but rolled out. For links golf it’d been perfect. But I was surprised overall how well it performed. Even the Callaway Triple Diamond performed better than the others even Callaway released this year

Sure am pal 👍🏻

Nice to see u back Rob in videos pal

Rob what did u think of ping G430 driver with Rdx shaft

@robpottergolf Rob what did u think of ping 430 driver with Rdx shaft would u try ping i530 irons N review them on RUclips

😂😂😂 if I hit a cart path down a hill, yeah 😂😂😂

@@robpottergolf lol true

Cheers pal

Cheers big man 🙌

Mate, thank you so much for that. Nick is like family to me and that’s the friendship he and I have. He’s like a big cousin 😂 Fraz and Mikey are without doubt a dream team and I’m proud to say they’re friends of ours and I do speak to Fraz, particularly quite often via social media. They’re deffo the blueprint, without a doubt.

Love it!

😂😂😂 that’s why you should always watch to the end 😜😜😜 Thanks for watching though pal

Not at all mate. I chose to take an indefinite break from doing anything on RUclips. Mix of family commitments, career commitments, wanting to concentrate on my own game without distractions, my own ill health, creative blocks which resulted in confidence issues - so much more than meets the eye. I never started RUclips to earn money. I was actually blind to the fact you could, when the channel was first created 12 years ago. Literally had no clue. I have been monitised on RUclips, but due to the break I lost that. The plan to return started 12 months ago through a chance conversation with Nick and myself and we started to formulate plans, ideas and visions of what we’d like to do together and with it, I decided to re-launch the channel. I have another review that’s currently in edit, and hopefully released in the coming week. But again, due commitments that Nick has had, that’s been outside his and my control, I’ve delayed the release of this particular review as we’ve been unable to film for 4 weeks or so. Plus there’s a course vlog in edit that was shot a few weeks ago in Ireland. So more to come and things will grow with time. And if it doesn’t then who cares? I’ve got a full time job that I love, and regardless I’ll have that as my main focus. I’ll continue to do it for as long as I enjoy it and Nick has time and desire to want to lend his knowledge in the reviews.

@@robpottergolf woooah buddy, you really didn’t have to go that deep to satisfy my question. I was merely thinking out loud and curious. I’m a massive RUclips consumer and it all fascinates me. I got the impression from what you said in the videos that this was going to be a new venture with regular uploads. Do you still speak to the folks that ended up growing big channels? Could you get them on some videos? I can’t help but think that the golf RUclips community is not a very nice, friendly place. People just seem to step all over others to advance their own interests and leave smaller channels behind and just try collabong with bigger channels to get exposure. Smelly little world from the outside looking in

Just wanna be transparent, pal. If you’re prepared to give time to watch something I post, then only fair I respond if you have an enquiry, a critique, or a compliment. It’s something I’ve always tried to do, even when I used to appear on Ricks channel. As I say, Nick has had some set backs and I’ve had a few things crop up beyond my control. So it’s been a catch 22 as what best to do. Release the review we shot a few weeks back with a gap before the next or just wait til I have more footage filmed and then I can drop them regular again? Weather has been garbage so couldn’t get out to film, and it’s hardly gonna show the courses in a good light at the moment. Although I do have one course vlog from Ireland that I’ll get out very soon. As for getting other, more established folk in the channel, it’s tough. It’s their full time job, so getting them on means it’s time they’re not creating content and there’s nothing in it for them. Yes, I was lucky getting Rick on the channel 5-6yrs ago but that was just a review of the season and frankly, it got very little views. And your observation about the RUclips space is an interesting one. I keep my thoughts and ideas to myself regarding what I’m going to create now. I had a few experiences with some creators where I naively shared some thoughts of content I wanted to do, and next thing I know, they’d done it, or something strikingly similar with they’re own twist. It’s one of the reason I stopped creating anything for as long as I did. Kinda had enough of what I’d witnessed and asked myself the question of “Do I need this?” But I missed reviewing equipment, and well, Nick is the best in the business in my opinion and I’ve always wanted to film stuff with him. So we both had the same idea at the same time, like literally, so we’ve decided to go for it and see how folk take it. Honestly pal, I appreciate the feedback. And for you to give that feedback/observation shows I’m still slightly relevant, which is a good thing and makes me want to crack on with stuff. So thanks for watching and thanks for getting in touch.

@@robpottergolf good lad 👍
