 so welcome back to another episode of every single shot this week i am in north wales the golf club is canavan and as you can see it sits right on the menai straight estuary a nice location castle nearby but i know what you're here for it's all about the golf so here we go every single shot the first door is a path for all the trouble it is well there's a group of trees down the left you can see but you can also see down the right hand side or you can't see from the the tee box at least is its white stakes out of bounds right so my aim is left hand side trying it that cut which is my comfortable shot fairly easy swing on the first tee and happy that we're somewhere down there now as you can see my ball is okay in a clear line to the green we're not a million miles away from that state tree nor the outer bounds which like i said i didn't realize existed from the tee box so we've got 154 in i'm playing eight iron we've got nothing in the way in terms of bunkers we're straight down the flag here and again nice easy swing and i had this one going right at the flag as you can see me holding a pose you'll soon see when we get to the green it was just a tad long but i was pretty proud of this one first iron shot of the day and as you can see i came right out the middle so first put of the day all about getting the pace right and they look fairly quick so i was happy with this first put rolled it into what is a comfortable tapping and we start off with a par good start to the day second hole again just 325 par 4 but a tight one off the tee what you'll notice is there's a block that runs across us red stakes that's about 180 yards away so again driver down the left with a bit of cut this hole is a left to right shape and this one was pretty perfect to be honest with you i just held on and made sure there's two trees on the right hand side that you can see and i was just hoping it got past them which it did quite easily it leaves in i think at 108 and the flag is right behind the bunker and took the way to the right i think it's got to be the toughest pin they can put now you can see that there's a big um a mark post above the tree line and that's my line left of the bunker and just trying to play safe here taking on the pin was highly risky and again plenty of good tempo in this swing and happy with where this pitched up and you can see if i go directly for the flag chances are i didn't quite have enough club there and this one again there's a slope halfway through the port which you can see it gather a bit of pace but then it flattens out at the bottom and um although we can't see it from this angle i'd left a slightly awkward one but thankfully rolled this one in and again two powers two fours that's a decent start another power four only 313 so again we've got three holes very short but this has a lot of trouble down a bottleneck in terms of the fairway if i'm honest with you i chose driver and we'll take a look and see what happens with this one okay so really good solid drive and it was a good job because to be honest with you this was probably hybrid off the tee and again leaking anything to the right you can just see my bag the towel flapping around that's how i bounce further right but i just had 58 yards in and a little shot tracer didn't pick this one up it was a nice little flick maybe just a little bit shorter than i'd want it to be and when you see where it landed probably an area of the game i just need to sharpen up a little bit on because this should be a bit closer from 50 odd yards so again you can see from the knee bend i quite fancy that one just run past the left edge but again easy tapping and three fours to start that's um and no trouble more importantly i'm i'm quite happy with that right surprise surprise another power four three 55 this one's a lot tighter off the tee again the shape is slightly left to right and my it sort of suits my eye but i'm aiming down the left hand side to bring it fade it back cut it back a little bit and i just turn that one over a tad go towards a group of trees which i've not played here for a few years wasn't sure about how much trouble that was but it's actually a safe shot because you go through to the other fairway there's nothing really in your way so i've just got nine iron up the hill i was playing 140 probably a little flat ball flight but this one um a little bit concerned because i shot over the back of the green and when i got there i was quite a bit through and as you can see i managed to get this one out but it was nestled down quite badly i was disappointed because it was such a good iron in nice controlled so again we got this one to save par the line was good pace wasn't and you can just see it falls away down to the left hand side but again more than happy i uh the shot got punished i got a bogey and it was just a yardage that was wrong not so much the strike now this one a bit annoying it was a temporary green i hate playing these rather just avoid the hole but to keep the score going i decided to partake so it's a wedge 135 i can't see you can see the tip of the flag you can't see the green from this location it is a good par three as well normally um again just great temper with the irons at the minute really happy this one was right at the flag but as you know you've got no idea what's going to happen when it lands onto a temporary green and as it happens i just ran through and um well to complete the score and i had a bit of a roll at it but i'm sort of giving myself that one even though i managed to tap it in since it's attempt green but so one over still and uh plenty happy with the way it's going this one now has got a bit more room to sort of open the shoulders a bit you can't hit a drawer here if it's there i certainly open the shoulders aimed the inside of that big oak tree that we're going for now but didn't manage to draw it at all pretty much a straight drive and this leaves a long one in a long second this is stroke index one on the card now when i get here i've got 211 yards to the flag there's a brook that runs all the way meanders across through the front edge of the green and if the camera wasn't on i would probably be playing a hybrid i'm walking off here with a double bogey but as i'm trying to get a score i chose six iron i just punch one down there real sensible play which makes a change so the cameras do me a favor i hit it down there i think about 170 yards and left the wedge in of just under 60 yards i'm playing a 58 wedge again shot tracer doesn't like it but i had this one going at the flag just a tad right of it and spun back a little bit as well so just it was a good wedge to be fair again really difficult to get the pace this time of year with greens very early on in the uk left a horrible one really but just about snuck one in and another bogey two over but could have been a lot worse right hole seven i like this one plenty of fairway down the left to uh yeah really go for that left hand side no trouble there outer bounds down the right and this one comes back to pretty much center stripe of the fairway probably the best driviate on the day left me one uh what was it 124 i think i had in a pitch in wedge slightly down wind again just not a lot of no trouble in my way bunker left just again about just that nice smooth swing that i've been hitting with wedges in hand and really pleased again best wedge shot of the day and this is a real birdie chance that's what is it eight foot away now as you can see that one just snuck away i would suggest um can make excuses that just took a bit of an odd bounce really an odd bobble route now anyway we'll move on it was a par par three 188 i'm playing six iron because it's all downhill and i'm expecting a bounce and this was a real pure struck iron i was looking right down the flag here but it pitched and stopped obviously still too firm and again this left the long port i'm really happy with the way i got the pace now when i walked up put like this i've just seen the big swing in terms of where it's come off from the long put the first one that i've hit so i don't really spend too much time reading these i know it's going to swing it's about how hard and firm i want to take that break out and um well i hit a decent put there just not firm enough and um yeah unfortunately that was a bogey a bit unfortunate there so ninth hole 464 first par five on the course fairly tight off the tee this is all about how tight it is rather than obviously you know yardage so 464 arguably reachable in two and ninth drive or ninth tee shot of the day and again that was a solid ball right down the middle really happy with the way i drove the ball today and in a good position this is the tricky second one the sort of it all funnels into a bit of a um well i played an iron anyway six iron and i tried to guide it down that left hand side leaked it a tad but we were long enough to clear the trouble and leave just just over a hundred i think it was 103 in again really tough flag to go to so i was going for middle of the green um hoping just a little little bit of cut into that flag really happy yet again with that wedge shot it was exactly where i played it when i get up there i just missed the top tier um which meant this left a real swing of a port it was sort of four maybe five foot left of the flag i was having to aim and uh as you can see for a minute there i thought i had a chance of holding one which we're doing a birdie to finish didn't i had probably one realistic decent birdie chance again a par there three over overall enjoyed it i think i drove the ball really well i struck the ball really well in terms of my irons and the putter will this time of year are not going to be too critical because the greens although ran at a decent enough pace there was the odd bobble still in there so for me three over nine holes more than happy with that right thank you for watching part two will be the back nine coming very shortly as ever let me know what you thought of that what am i missing in terms of information that you maybe like to see from the golf course itself but for now thanks for watching subscribe if you don't already hit that like button and i will see you all very soon bye for now
