The great thing about putting terrible is it forces you to work on it..
You should come to canada Pete (in the summer of course 😂).
Loving the Africa series so far Pete!! FYI…my dream team vid would be you (obvs), Luke Kwon, Tooms and Taco…any chance? 🤔😃
Great video Peter Finch! Thanks for featuring a stunning South African course, which most (99% maybe) of locals will never get to play, and is out of the price range of most.
A few points : In SA we work in meters, not yards. Yet I see you quoting the distance of holes in yards using the distance in meters quoted on the scorecard? How on earth did you club yourself correctly? Guess you relied strictly on your rangefinder set to yards, and had the GPS on the buggy set to yards.
You asked at one point " is this Bermuda grass"? It is actually "cool season Rye"? The greens are Bent Grass.
It is actually one of the most visually stunning courses. I think you need to be "in the zone" and totally oblivious to the scenery to not be distracted!
Were you finding greens in South Africa difficult to read? You seemed to struggle a bit with line in this video and when playing Fancourt.
Thanks for coming to play in South Africa and feature our courses – we look forward to welcoming you back. There are still a lot of really great courses for you to experience, inland as well.
Enjoy your content a lot,
imagine gettting to travel the world and play golf for a living.. dont know Pete does it… Hard life.
Made a meal of the 18th!! Watching you struggle almost helped me feel better about my golf!
Chin up Pete, if you ever need a lesson just gimme a shout 👍 😂
Pete your glasses don't fit your face mate, they're too narrow 😂 Get yourself to an Oakley store and find a pair the right width so you'll get a larger field of view and more peripheral protection.
This year. i will play this course. Amazing content peter.
Oubaai next Peter – Ernie course!
Please get the Bryan bros, Rick and Grant to come to SA with you..
Awesome. Haven't been to Africa for too long.
Large tortoise was an african spur thighed. And the things you thought could be marmots were actually rock hyrax, whose closest relative is the elephant. Yeah I'm an nature nerd
The 18th hole is – wow. Daunting.
Peter Peter 😢
Thank you Peter 🥂👍🏻
Anyone got Phil Kenyons phone number? 😂
I would really like to see a little added content to these beautiful remote locations to include more clubhouse and amenities features.
Lovely, hard looking golf course. As well as golf you should do a nature channel!
What a simply stunning golf course wow!
Pinnacle ball at pinnacle point.. Classic
27 dollars to play this Course. 675 dollars to play pebble beach. That means you can play this course 25 times or pebble once. I know wich one im playing. Still love pebble tho
If it's any comfort Mr Finch. I would've hit 10 on every hole! What a nemesis of a course! My God!😳😳
"Supera Moras" – you definitely were told that by someone who went to Wynberg Boys' High School. There is no other reasonable explanation for someone to know what that means! Surprisingly the Latin speaking population here, in South Africa, is quite limited.
Love seeing the SA courses on youtube. Hole 2 you literally said my mates parents house is sick
I need this course on gspro
Legend! Glad you are enjoying South Africa Pete.
I am a South African working abroad but man i have played yas links a lot and other top course in dubai but man this course takes the cake 🎂. No pun intended 😂😅.
Love it Pete ill definitely come play this when i come home for a holiday and if i shoot 81 ill also eat cake😂
Thanks for showing us the whole golf course Pete 😜
It's going to be hard to beat the views and natural foliage of this course. One of the most beautiful I have seen you play.
That 18th has taken many a good golfers dreams away 😂
Glad you desided to play pinnacle point , bucket list golf course a must play ! Leopard creek full of wild animals in area . Take advantage of game drive / walk during the day and game drive at night . You have to stay at pre selected local hotels for at least 3 days to play on course or get invited by member . Dont forget to play at skakuza golf course in area . Here there are no shark nets wild lions roam the course freely , cant play at dusk or dawn too dangerous . if you have the balls play skakuza !
You need a putting coach
That's one tough golf course. Well done Pete
As a 🇿🇦n, I love this content. So many wonderful courses at ridiculously low greenfees compared to Europe/UK/US. Don’t forget the wonderful courses on the Highveld, Lowveld, and Natal.
Personally I find Pinnacle Point exactly the way Pete experienced it… Fantastic scenery, but actually a poorly designed golf course in terms of playability. Each hole has either a crazy elevation change, plays over a cliff, or has fynbos on both sides of the fairway with zero room for error. These are all great features on one or two holes on a course, but here you have 18 crazy holes. Too much in my opinion and no fun for the everyday golfer.
Rather drive 40km and play George Country Club, which is simply magnificent.
Change putter!!
Loved that. Top content Pete. Let them eat cake!
Love this Pete, now that you've done the coastal courses, think next year you should do the inlands… Leopard Creek, Sun City, Blair Athol…
Incredible course and I'm only on the 8th. Quick question though – surely on holes like 7, you throw another ball down and sling one in off the sea, right?!
My home town ❤
In the words of a great man "go to your happy place"
Mr gilmore
The LAB hasn't improved your putting at all. Still terrible inside 6 ft
Absolutely cracking vid guys. Stunning course. Keep er lit.❤
That last hole had me crying with laughter… Sorry but it was hilarious
Phenomenal 👏
Lovely course, think you are going to have to give me that putter lol
He's one of us !
An absolutely fantastic and challenging course. The video footage was really good and shows what an amazing course it is.
Great play Pete, it must have been so tough with the wind and trying to figure out the course.👍
Defiantly not your day Peter. Stunning course, enjoyed the episode.
