Yes. I have FCP but for the quick-n-easy stuff don't bother.

One hole today of the nine I played with my son at the new course, Watertown Country Club.  He had a great time and even though we only played nine he wanted to keep going.  He played from the junior tees on this hole, playing about 146 yards or so.   Other than that I just let him tee it up from 125-150 yards.  Enjoy the humor and the fun!

My favorite line, "That is going to be a lot of raking"

The seasoned golfer minimizes the contact with the sand to alleviate the need for much raking!!!

Makes putt, proceeds to commence with the HAPPY DANCE!!! , so will you be doing that dance if you make a putt at Whispering Woods in August

This may be the finest work of art I have ever created!  I said it in the video above, and the "theme for the day" is...

Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing @cipher

@cipher I loved this. Seeing your son's gleeful swing, no worries, not a care in the world, just made my day. I could learn a thing or two from him about how to approach this crazy, mind-boggling game. It really is fun when you stop thinking like an adult out there. Thanks for sharing

Well said. We all struggle trying to think about this game as adults. Sometimes it is just important to remember it is meant to be fun. I play so often alone in the mornings, I also often forget it is even better shared with friends/family. Can't wait to get him out there again.

When he's older, and he throws or slams his first club in anger, you should show him these videos to remind him what it's really all about.

@cipher Sorry, I hope I didn't overstep my bounds there. I was speaking more about myself there. Again, I'm always thankful when I learn something important about this game and my game.

Great thought. I will do that for sure.

I hope you guys got sick of watching good golf, because I made a vlog!

I only got the front 9 because my memory card was full. Also, I forgot to bring my tripod, so the camera setup was interesting, to say the least. I apologize in advance for some bad camera work.

Oh, and my narration is really quiet, for some reason. Maybe I need to get a microphone. It's my first time making something of a real video in movie maker.

Awesome thread and idea. I'll have to do this soon.

Nice play on #3 @billchao !!  Actually looks a lot like my golf, except I don't hit it that far.

Thanks! Too bad I couldn't make that putt, would have been awesome to make my first eagle while I was filming. Where's your vlog? :-)

Hope to make one soon.  Last time I played, there was a group with me.  I will get it done eventually.

I had fully intended on doing one on Saturday.  I bought a new memory card and charged the phones battery, and even hooked it up to the tripod and tested it out a bit Friday night.

Then after thinking about it overnight, I "chickened out" because of a few reasons.

• We were playing a popular muni at 9am on a Saturday morning, and I didn't want to get dirty looks from other players or rangers figuring I'd be slowing things up.
• We were only a threesome and the idea of trying to do this with a random fourth watching was not appealing.
• We were walking and I figured I'd look like a dumbo trekking all over the place carrying a camera on a tripod.

So, I decided against it and will drag myself out somewhere early in the morning by myself to shoot.

Too bad too, cuz I played well and shot a 76 with 3 birdies.  Knocked out my second best differential, but replaced it with my new best one!  You guys would have been impressed!!
