My favorite course in Ireland, history, fun, varied and beautiful. Many memorable holes, some are quirky, which I love. The Dell is the short hole with the green between...

You really should not need a review here, this is the Old Course, where it all began! The town is great, the course itself is fantastic, different every time you play it....

There are things I like on #2 even more than #1. A couple holes that are not my favorites, but numerous wonderful holes. The back nine is great fun and has some holes req...

Great town and club. It was a wonderful host to the Scottish Open. The course itself is very good. The course is very firm and fast with very good greens and views that y...

Arguably the best of all the "new" courses in Scotland. Beautiful and fun. The holes are excellent. It is a little to "American" for my taste and the lack of history keep...

I played here in the early 90s and was very unimpressed, it was unattractive and difficult for the sake of being difficult. The club has since removed thousands of pine t...

Spectacular setting and wonderful, albeit challenging, golf. The views are amazing as are most of the holes. The 17th is a head scratcher that just does not seem to fit,...

One of my favorite courses in Scotland. Blind shots, amazing dunes, sloping greens, great variety and fun. Views are wonderful throughout. The club itself is friendly and...

Fairly flat and not terribly interesting. The course is in one of the finest golfing areas in the world and honestly does not compete with the best in this area. This sai...

The oldest ‘new’ course in the world, the second course at the Home of Golf was built by the Keeper of the Green Tom Morris in 1895 and it was imaginatively named to diff...

I hate to admit that I was a bit snobbish and did not play the Eden for many years, feeling that it was a lesser course. The starter is located on the other side of town...

This is the third course in St. Andrews. Also designed by Old Tom Morris and opened in 1897. I find the Jubilee to be more attractive than the New or Old, and more fun th...

Many people do not include this as a must-play. They are missing out on what I believe is the best overall course in Scotland and I don't know of a better course in the w...

This is a must play for anyone in Fife. A classic "old school" links course with some of the best scenery in the world. There are several short holes and some are in clos...

Don't go here, don't play here, don't visit the town! I want it all to myself. This is the most fun course in the world. The history is fantastic and the membership is wo...
