The Dukes course was my first experience of golf at Woburn and what an introduction it was. This course, and in particular the early and latter parts of the round, was ex...

I am very partial to a Harry Colt design, and on reading about the recent course changes underway at Royal Wimbledon, I had made it a priority to see the results of this...

As far as bucket list golf courses go, North Berwick has to be a pretty frequent feature on most peoples lists. It had been on my radar for nearly 20 years and the antici...
Forest Pines (Forest & Pines) 28/04/2022

I must confess to being mildly underwhelmed by the prospect of my Friday afternoon tee time at Forest Pines. I’m not the biggest fan of resort golf and, knowing very litt...

I had the privilege of walking these awe inspiring fairways the week after the spring opening in 2022 on a calm and clear March morning. It was a particularly special rou...

I love visiting a course that know I very little about beforehand as you get a real sense of place without any bias or prejudice from other viewpoints. My knowledge of Su...

What an iconic and memorable place this is to swing a golf club. In the U.K., many of the golf courses have a timeless feel to them, particularly the links layouts. Often...

A course that has hosted a major championship always engenders an additional level of anticipation and intrigue for me. Remembering the shots seen on TV and recalling the...

My wife often jokes that I will state that every song is my favourite, perhaps insinuating that I use the term more loosely than I might. However I tend to avoid using su...
