A good ‘content guy’ is hard to find – and, as this video has fun pointing out, some are just a waste of time.
For those aspiring golf influencers out there trying to make a name for themselves while surrounded by bumbling nitwits, this video might be relatable or a big ol’ trigger.
There are few things worse than thinking you got some great footage only to find someone has bungled.
Having the camera facing the wrong way is the real go-to for the golf content numbnuts.
The sketch below is relatable for anyone trying to get some help making golf content.
Now what should you do if you encounter someone trying to film content on the golf course?
This is a tricky question, and first and foremost, the onus is on those filming to accommodate those around them given that they should be well aware that a golf course is a shared amenity.
There has an been an alarming rise in the number of physical altercations that go down on the golf course with some claiming that devices allow these incidents to be captured more often while still others point to those very devices as a source of frustration.
Slow play is a leading cause of fights on the course and often because of escalating behaviour, like hitting into a slow-moving group. While slow play is considered poor form, hitting balls dangerously close to other players is dangerous and clearly unacceptable behaviour.
If you have an issue with someone filming it might be best to try to address it with a calm discussion first, if your club has rules against filming point these out and know when it is right to get the club officials involved as well.
We cannot sanction any sort of physical violence on the course, but if you see a donnybrook going down and you have a phone handy remember to hold the phone in landscape mode while you are filming it and send it to golf365editor@planetsport.com.
