I'm off to Scotland next month and I have the oppportunity to play at St Andrews but I'm at a loss as to which course to play. I've only been playing golf for 2 years, my club is parkland so I've never played links golf. Anyone been there who can recommend a course for me?

Funny thing how you first meet the woman that you marry. I first met the wife in a tunnel of love. She was digging it - Les Dawson

I've been on the website and my only chance to get on there is the daily ballot but there is a minimum of 2 players and I'm on my own (the Old Course is closed now for the Open). At the end of the day any of the courses are worth playing.

My mate has just arrived back from there.

Played the jubilee course and found it too hard on a 10 hcap

Said the fairways were way, way too hard and the ball would bounce fifty yards right/left

Also the area is pretty unfriendly apparently unless you are Scottish

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By JetFan1983 · Posted

      Shot a 37 today! Palmer Course, PGA National. Really fun. 6/9 GIR, no lost balls. The double and the bogey were both three putts from like 35 feet or so.  The birdie at the last was really fun. I stood over that fifteen footer and thought wow I’m really about to make this, aren’t I? And I hearted it. Really fun. It’s like 9000 degrees outside but I battled through it well. Good times.

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      I had been in a bit of a slump for the month of June. Handicap index has slowly risen, and there were few sub-80 scores. Today was a different story at Leslie Park GC. Lots of solid shots, GIR's, up & downs, for a 77 (7.8 differential). As with most rounds, there were a few loose shots and crappy putts, but it was a good day.

      Day 6  (26 Jun 26) - Played 18 today in the Friday men's group shootout.  Would love to say it was an awesome round, but it wasn't  - had a tough day with the putter (especially on the front - short putts missing left or right or just short - just could not get a feel for the greens).
