 Right, we're good audio is recording. Let's get started and how are you all how is everybody out there because right now I'm a very positive frame of mind, which is you choose a bit of a rollercoaster and at the moment things are I've got so many plans for 2020 that have all seemed to kick in at once and Bar in a bit of bad weather in the UK. I just can't wait to get this whole thing started But what are we here for today? Well, we're gonna find out who was the lucky winner or maybe not so lucky winner of my second-hand clubs Yeah, my irons, so it was tailor-made P770s mixed up with some 790s I'll announce the winner of those irons and the other thing I will do is announce the date of The average golfer 2020 competition Right so start off with the average golfer 2020 and a quick recap for those of you don't know We ran this competition for the first time last year in September Winner was Owen Curry and he was the first crowned Average golfer of the year and we're gonna repeat that again. It's a massive success We had over a hundred people enter at very short notice on that one to be fair a little bit more notice given this time around But the event was really good We had great sponsorship from tailor-made Royal Bled also provided a great first prize in our holiday at their amazing resort which Owen will testify to and it was like I said, I'm I suppose As important as all that we raise a lot of money for the calm charity Which is something that again will be looking to support in 2020 But for the date, let's just get the date first of all before I get too much waffling on 21st of August It's a Friday. It's a better day than last year because we were on a Monday. So it's a Friday It's in a better time of year The course will be absolutely pristine at Conway golf club. We couldn't go from there. Everybody enjoyed it so much Obviously my relationship with them anyway, but we've now got it brought almost five weeks forward And it's gonna be in a macular condition. They've got the Curtis Cup held in mid-June So August time, let's hope we get a bit of sunshine But the course condition will be absolutely superb. So I can't wait to get Get that day. I can't wait for that day already. It was such so much fun last time I don't play in it, but I bet basically what I did was hosted the day Spent a lot of time recording speaking to people and I enjoyed it was great to meet so many people So I hope you can all get involved again this year The reason I've been reluctant to announce the date is because we haven't yet set up the booking system because I think We're gonna introduce an online booking system will make things a lot a lot easier for us and for you in terms of being How to book your tea time That's still not ready as yet But I just wanted to give forewarning about the date stick it in the diary blank that day off on the phone right now Anybody who's interesting coming You will get a tea time. We're gonna be we've got a full day this time No sort of members slots in between so running from 10 a.m Right the way through till 3 30 will be the last take and it's gonna be a great day like everything What was great about last year we have to build on and make it an even bigger and better date this time around once again some very Interested sponsors or interesting sponsors rather that are keen to support this day yet to be finalised But trust me there's gonna be some great prizes on offer and it will be an amazing day And we will raise a lot of money for this calm charity again. Can't wait to do that Yeah, it's just that's the first exciting brand news I've got for you and confirm that date. So what's next? Let's go with the winner of our competition. So Here we go. Let's switch over to some kind of computerized Lottery draw and find out who won those golf clubs. I haven't seen this bit. So good luck to ever it is Right so details are in in 20 comments. The winner is John Osborne and seen John's name in the comments down quite a few times I hope we've got that on camera. Can you see that great video any fantastic to see the channel gone from strength to strength have a Great Christmas. I'm wishing you and your family and the channel all the very best for 2020. Well, John Congratulations, you've just won yourself a or my set of P770 irons. Make sure those P790s I'll throw in the carry bag that I had tell me carry back and some golf balls Enjoy mate. Congrats. Well done and thanks for supporting the channel for I think quite a while to be honest here I've I reckon that I recognize that name. Well done, mate I still don't know the winners, but whoever it was I'm sure you've just been there wish could look by me in a separate clip So moving on. What is next? What is up for the average golfer? Well, we've got I'm gonna play I'm gonna play a lot more golf and I'll play a lot more golf at courses that I've never played before I Said in a previous video if you watched it earlier on this week that I'm really interesting Finding those two boxes again that I've never been to that I walk on they just open up in front Yeah, and it's like wow, this is amazing. That's that's the joy that I get from golf I'm not too Interested in whether I score well or not. I'm not too bothered what my handicap is That's not my motivation for playing the game. Obviously. I like to play good rather than bad That's the sort of icing on the cake But for me, it's all about discovering different golf courses and we're going to some extreme places Huge plans to get some and I'm talking about just the UK alone at this point UK and Ireland and That's some amazing trips in the pipeline like I said, I'm not going to confirm anything will keep on coming but it's a real big travel series and A real interesting look at not only the golf not only show you the golf courses But I want to start showing you the surrounding areas and sort of things that go on and things that areas are synonymous with We've got a real interesting video coming next week which looks at a simple thing like The the challenges that are faced With a with a with a regular sort of golf club. There's a bit of a separation I think at the moment between the sort of that the hierarchy in terms of you've got the clubs that are doing particularly well The wealthy club seems to get be getting wealthy and getting more exposure And there's another one down there that are really fighting and battling away I'm gonna have a closer look at what those challenges are and we'll be playing those courses at the same time But like I said, it's just a real move away from the norm I'm always going to product test. I'm always going to test out golf balls and putters. I've got alongside me That's always going to be a core part of channel But like I said throwing some real sort of Maybe not left field. It's not going to go You know, we're going to off the rails with this is we're not going to reinvent the wheel But it's going to be stuff that certainly I've never filmed on the channel before I want to mention two Sponsors first of all you see some names at the back of me or you may do hide them away. Don't hide the sponsors Seed again. I've joined us in terms of partnership for this year, which is fantastic foregolf chest that I'll be filming again All my product testing down at foregolf. Yes, I've got the connection still with Conway again for this year Well, it's always been there, but there's another I'm just going to mention this tea upload Because I've got an association with to upload. So let's make that clear. But there's going to be a more Obvious partnership between to upload and The average golfer channel and the average golfer channel was originally born out of to upload because it was it was a core It is a course review website and that's how we featured a lot of the content early doors And then it sort of evolved and changed and now it's something I do on my own But to upload just gone through a major overall in terms of what it provides golfers and seriously I 100% believe it's a major major I set to any golfer that wants to plan a trip Book an open competition book a society deal get membership deals because it's one website where it literally Contains all that information on all the clubs in the UK and Ireland and a lot of the top European destinations as well So and you can leave your reviews on they can get involved. So I'd appreciate anybody I can't make this too much for sales video But I want I really want to push to upload as much as I can and promote it because I feel that like I said It's got some real positive attributes that can help a lot of golfers First of all save a lot of money. There's a 150 golf deals on at the moment on that website Use this thing called fairway finder clicking where you want to go and play and it'll throw up all the deals That are in that particular area. So that alone to me is absolutely super facility I'm gonna go pinging all around the place looking at different websites. It's all there in one place Sales pitch over but go and have a look and check it out if you will But they're sponsored of the channel again this year among some of the things and what those sponsors do again Just to give you an update for those of the people that kind of a question this kind of time In with manufacturers or ever it may be Without those people these channels don't exist and certainly Maybe maybe exist, but they don't grow and they don't get the opportunity to evolve They don't get the opportunities to film the type of content. They want to film So like I said, it's their support that I'm personally massively grateful for but then we got to understand like I said to get this content Do you I mean Jesus things need paying for do you know what I mean? It's a straightforward and obvious thing to say But anybody who's expecting free content to watch has got to understand There's got to be a way of paying for that content in some way So I'm looking to work with a number of partners like I said this year That will support single video series as well and just we're looking to do some like I said travel things in certain areas and those video series Will be sponsored by certain brands and that's the way we're able to then bring up that content in terms of the quality level Get other people involved and bring to you what like I said on a couple of videos this week So sorry if it's getting a bit boring Just what I want to do and I've got to go out there and do it Have night because there's one big show go one big show go one more We'll go one more biggie. I'm literally seriously. I've gone on too long and probably a lot of people have switched off by now Anyway, we'll go one more biggie this year 2020 is a massive year for the average golfer and It's probably played a major part in me stopping what the way I've done things and switching things around and I'm 50 Yes, I am 50 this year. Don't get me with all the negative comments down there about having every paper round and all the rest of it Come on. Come on. Give some love. Don't give all that hate out Don't tell me I thought you was 55 60 and all the rest of it because I know you're gonna hit me with it the reality is in It's it's at the end of the year. It's December but in December. I am 50 So I'm gonna embark on a bit of a bit of a bucket list journey between now and then and like I said Get back to what I wanted to do in the first place, which is like I said that the appeal about golf is getting on them golf course I've never been to before and I've said that already only you're boring us and shut up. Anyway, I'm 50. It's out there It's a big year 2020 is a big year come and join us keep on supporting massively appreciative as you know, I don't say it every video I'm not that type of person But if I can keep on remembering to say thank you Then then I will do a bit more often because like I said, it's you people allow me to make this happen And the other thing is I've got a new hat on for a change the same that's on for six months. So yeah, I've got a new sponsorship coal. I Haven't really anyway That's it.
