Have been blessed to have time to travel and play this wonderful game for 50 years. Have enjoyed getting to many top 100 courses both near and far. I love the fact that so many GB&I courses allow visitor play without member invitation, thus 23 trips over have been made.
Trump Turnberry King Robert The Bruce is a very fine course. Personally a few of the holes here are exceptional and I could see those fitting in with the Ailsa to create...
Crail Balcomie is a fun day out. There are some nice holes on the front mostly and the back feels like it was squeezed in. The club dates back to the 1700's. The club is...
The first time I played the Old of St Andrews my caddie was a member at Crail. He spoke of the 2nd course they were building there and that Gil Hanse was designing it. I...
Royal Troon Old is a championship course. It has the flexibility to stretch out and challenge the very best golfer. The conditions are excellent. The green complexes dema...
Machrihanish is a pure delight of old classic links golf. The club is very welcoming. It's not often that your dreams of playing a fabulous course are inspired by its fir...
Prestwick in my opinion is the most under rated course in Scotland. Right from the first tee you realize you are in for a crazy fun day. I'm so thankful my 3 hybrid typic...
Cruden Bay starts with a couple very average holes and just builds momentum from there. The 6th hole is one of the most frustrating holes I have ever played. 3 times I ha...
Turnberry Ailsa is sublime. I have only played it since the renovations. It is a very special place. The views with the lighthouse and the Craig add to a superb course. V...
Making your way to experience Royal Dornoch takes dedication. It is so remote. It is worth every effort made though. I have been here twice and have plans to return this...
The attention to detail here at Trump Aberdeen is amazing. The turf on the walkways is as good as any course turf in all of Scotland. The course is very special. The fair...
North Berwick West Links is magical. There are a hand full of holes here that are totally unique. The conditions are superb. This would be my 2nd most prioritized place f...
Kingsbarns is many times spoken of as the American course in St Andrews. Unlike so many courses in Scotland, when you show up at Kingsbarns they allow you to play off a v...
Carnoustie is just a rollicking fun day which demands your very best game for you to survive. Every hole is a study in design merits. There are a great mix of holes but p...
Muirfield is standardly spoken of as the most difficult place to play. And yet, I can go online at the appropriate far in advance timeframe and push a button and procure...
St Andrews Old is so much of a simple analysis to golf. In one breath you are offered a municipal course with tee times available. In another breath you have an advance t...
The Ranch is a high end public course somewhat equidistant from Springfield and Hartford. The conditioning is always very good. There is a large hill which delivers a few...
Taconic is a very nice college campus course. It's part of Williams college. It sits in the far west of Massachusetts in a fairly remote area. If you are looking to play...
TPC Boston is a very good design. I'm always amazed by the PGA tour players as they visit very challenging courses for most of us and turn them into pitch and putts. The...
Ipswich is a nice club and is accommodating. The course is usually in great shape. The holes roll over gentle hills and valleys. This is a good example of RT Jones work....
Seaview Bay course is one of two courses here. It is where the LPGA goes to play the Shoprite. The course was a course which long ago I had dreams of playing. At one time...
