Yep, there are a few really hard holes. 1-3 are benign. 4 becomes harder and then it's like every second hole or so is hard. Don't remember my score, but I remember I parred or birdied 17, going to 18 with hopes of a decent score. 18 got me totally. Messed up around the green with multiple bunker visits and got something like a quad on the last. I was still so so happy after the round. Amazed by the course.

Back in the 1990´s the 4th green was surrounded by ice plant. Ice plant is basically an unplayable lie. It slowed play so much they have removed it from all courses in the area. I was 5 over thru the first five holes and shot 78 one time. I don´t think there are any 5 holes more difficult than 1-5 at Spyglass. Have not played Pine Valley though.@@johnsmith42688

Your videos bring me so much peace. Thank you Grant!

Thank you for doing this video. Spent 5 years as an Assistant golf pro at Spyglass and watching your video brought back many memories. Home Sweet Home. Don't feel bad, I was in many of the same situations that you were, I feel your pain. Back then the ice plant was much more lush and in play. The deer too. Be glad you didn't end up in that. LOL

Great video. Such a beautiful, challenging golf course. Can't wait to see what you shoot when you next play it now that you've have a better understanding of the holes.

Thanks. Spyglass is awesome. I played Poppy Hills, Pebble and Spyglass over a weekend 20 years ago. While Pebble is awesome I ❤LOVE❤ Spyglass. Even though it's 20 years ago I remember many shots and I have a vivid memory of the stunning views. It was a pleasure to return to Spyglass in this way and I can't wait to visit back.

Grant, really enjoyed seeing Spyglass. You did brilliantly to maintain your composure throughout. A big takeaway! Many thanks

I love the direction of which your videos are going at Grant. Just like the Pebble Beach video, it really is a cinematically pleasing piece that you can relax and enjoy to.

I remember watching Courtney Lee play in high school here in Indiana. He went to Pike High School! Great ball player.

Absolutely great golf course. One of the best in the world. One of the most difficult courses I’ve very played

Can see You coming back here again and again to claw back those shots, and I'd watch it for sure. Thanks Grant.

Great video, Grant! This channel is so great. Great to watch start to finish. You really turned your game around after the 9th hole. Thanks for sharing, great game. Looking forward to the next spyglass video.

I was lucky to play there this past summer. Easily the toughest course I've ever played. If you're not striking the ball well, it will be a long day. I'm a 3 handicap and shot a 95. Until i started taking more club, every approach was short. Those greens are no joke. Never had so many 3 and 4 putts. Still one of the best days ever. Thank you Grant for playing here. It brought back a lot of good memories.

WAY to grind. I was lucky enough in the 90"s to play Pebble, Spyglass, Spanish Bay -- Poppy Hills was closed. Our caddie was Gavin the "G-man" and he was fantastic. I loved Spyglass but Pebble was one of those bucket list courses that I will never forget. Great video - Bethpage Black was my home H.S. course and I cannot wait for the Ryder cup there. Thanks for this.

Love the content grant! These videos are the best, I love the music in the background! Could you make a playlist😂 keep it up!!

man grant your positivity is amazing. i can’t say id stay in a good mental playing under my expectations at a place like this.

Unbelievable course! Happy to see Grant keep the smile after every hole

Wow, that course is merciless! Those greens and pin positions are real tough - great video as usual Grant 👊

Love the caddy mic! The little bits of advice are great to hear

@Granthorvatgolfs, the music, the images, the thoughts have reminded me to enjoy the time spent on the course instead of focusing on the shots...Thanks

Great to see you struggle once in a while. Real test, great performance. Its amazing that you hace improved your content by doing solo videos. At moment, the best KZread golf content. Thanks

Stunning course and video keep them coming 😍

This is such an interesting and hard course. I played it on a cold, drizzly, windy day with no caddy. I felt like I was playing at the peak of my potential, but walked away around my average score (82). Can't wait for the opportunity to play it again.

You can even see the flag move on the 6th, that was so close. Keep it up Grant, this is some of the best golf content out there. Absolutely top-tier. And what a great course, it really put you to the test, and it makes the video even more entertaining to watch!

That is one tricky track. Great perseverance Grant!

Interesting add of the old german national athem at 23:00 -- Great video Grant! Impressive stuff.

Gotta love grants positivity, I mean the dudes living the dream but still I respect is attitude every time he plays. Also that caddy was cool and he knew his stuff!

23:25 sitting here in the snowy winter wonderland in Bavaria/Germany with my heating blanket and watching an amazing golf video. And then at 23.20min they played the german anthem 😂.

New level on the opening cinematography and tunes. Almost had an RGC feel to it. Nice to see positive vibes throughout despite the struggle to keep the ball on the green. Evidently, those greens were really fast. Great job on the production!

Grant i felt the same way when i played out here. Its so tough to get used to these types of tracks. The ball just reacts so differently than what we are used to. You didnt hit a "bad" shot and still made a triple, then your flop on the next hole looks great and winds up 10 feet away. Such a tough track and easily a top 5 for me. I enjoyed this course over Pebble.

Spyglass is a great course. Played it back in June for my 21st along with pebble and Spanish bay. Phenomenal courses.

Grant, the production work on these streams has been stellar! The quality of the drone shots in particular is just stunning. The golf is just the icing on the cake! 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving to you and your lady wife (and Tig and his wife, of course)!

Grant!! this video goes to show literally just how hard this game is..watching on hole 7- This game humbles you soo fast. if i get a case of the shanks- i have to mentally keep it together..(one of my biggest problems tbh)

looks beautiful. thanks for the content. I feel like we sometimes play better with our own brain and reads. Knowing the layout is great, but having someone tell you where to hit the putts can be really difficult on our psyche upon execution. little surprised at the construction vehicles around on a few of the holes.

Love it. For Christmas I want the Teaches channel to go into overdrive

Really bounced back on the back 9. Always enjoy watching Grant play

Grant is great guy also he has that teaching gene from his father- just want to help anyone with their swings and is really great and enjoying it 😊

Grant is for sure my favourite KZread golfer, just ahead of Pete Finch and I enjoy watching all their videos. However, sometimes as a mid handicapper, their skill level and ability is so beautiful to watch and aspirational, but at the same time, unrelatable. But this video makes me feel like he's really just one of us. He ground out that score, just like we all do. I could really feel his frustration. So instead of just watching an amazing golfer, with a silky swing, hit beautiful shots on great courses, the trials and tribulations he went through give this video, for me at least, a genuine level of engagement that I've not felt before.

Grant sounding like me out there, with all the "no way's", lol! Great content as usual! Keep it up!

I’m a local to Monterey and spyglass is definitely my favorite of the pebble beach co. Courses. I’m playing it on Christmas Eve I can’t wait!

Grant thanks for being such a good role model for us guys hacking it around our muni courses. It’s so easy to lose your composure or get frustrated. Next time I hit a bad shot or the breaks don’t go my way - I will definitely be remind of this content.

Grant! Amazing video. Well done and good playing. I took my dad to do 5 rounds last year and this brought back some amazing memories. I had almost the exact same pin locations as you at Spyglass and had to laugh on a couple. Not at you but because I experienced the exact same thing. 9 green stands out to me so much as I had quite the downhill putt to that same front pin. Thanks for the video! Come to the Calgary Alberta area. Some insane mountain courses you gotta play. Banff Springs, Jasper Park Lodge, Stewart Creek, Silvertip and both 18’s at Kananaskis. I’d love to host ya.

Grant!! Awesome video my man. Jealous of your golf trip haha. I live in the Phoenix area and know what super nice golf courses look like/play like….but the group of courses in the Pebble Beach package are tops in the world. Maybe one day haha

The quality of this video is insane! Good work on a hard course.

Good content brotha! I’m from Monterey and spyglass by far is the hardest course I’ve ever played, especially on a windy day

Well done Grant. Lovely course. You stayed strong and hung in. Good job.

This was seriously such a fun video to watch! Those greens were so unforgiving.

Love a Grant Horvat video, great edit as ever!

Wow! To shoot par you must have a sweet soft long fairway-finder driver. Low irons that land on a table-top somewhere below the hole. You want the Hovland bean-bag irons that hit and stop. Any ball with high backspin might suck back 30yds.

Hey dude don't let the scorecard get in the way of having a great round of golf on a gorgeous course. I love watching you play. Have Fun!!

Great fight Grant. Prolly helped a lot having Nick on the bag, all time vibes guy!!!

Brotha I love all your videos. I think you going on your own was the best thing for you. Keep up the great work.

Great video. You have a good attitude towards the game and you certainly got your money's worth today. That approach shot on #4 when it hit the green, ran past the pin and took a left turn out of site was hilarious. Take care.

SUCH a tough course! played there and pebble back in 2010 with my dad and uncle. shot 76 at pebble and slugged it out on spyglass for a 79 with a bird on the 18th lol! love your videos. keep doing your thing buddy!

Best video yet Grant. Watching the ups and downs throughout the round really connects with the average golfer. Well done Sir. That thumbnail though…..😂.

Thing is, it's a very tough call in saying "course X is 4, 5, or 9 shots greater or fewer than course Y", because it can be EVERY shot that is tougher. Ergo, a 72 on X doesn't equate to a 76 on Y! Oh no no nooo! As we see here, almost every shot is tougher. Eg, 136 at Royal Cinque Ports, UK off the yellow, is not the same as 144 off the blacks. No sir. I'd love to see Grant or DOD play RCP off the blacks, in Open qualifying setup...maybe in very windy (in the US, you may call it 'unplayable' conditions). It may pelt down with rain too btw. You may need to drill a driver just to be in range with a 3 wd...the weather may be favourable. Have you watched Jeff Ogily's video round here? I love Grant's videos. And he is a great person.

Hey Grant, been there, done that. 😂 Spyglass is beautiful, but tough. I like it better than Pebble. If you ever get a chance, play Poppy Hills. It’s my favorite course on the peninsula. I think you’d love it.

There is a story that not long after the course opened in 1966, Bing Crosby bet Jack Nicklaus $50 that he won't break par the first time he played Spyglass. Jack was the reigning US Open and Masters champion and had won 4 other majors by then. Bing won the bet.

+7 and you played well. That shows how demanding Spyglass Hill is. Great job.

Played Bethpage a few weeks ago. Not my first time. Wind was blowing, and it was brutal. Course is monster with perfect conditions. A fair monster. One mistake and it compounds and snowballs. Was feeling what Grant was saying the first few holes. These greens were ridiculous, though. Played a private club that was rolling like this video. Makes you overthink your approaches and putts when your full wedge rolls off the green or a putt you barely touched rolls on by.
