Hi Andy,

Great stuff. I’ll be staying at the Fairmont next week for the R&A Rules School. Won’t be able to play in this weather though.

If you would like, maybe we could meet up for a whiskey or something. Drop me a line.

Cheers,
Roy

Hi Andy, another GREAT episode, well done.

I played here 2 years ago and found it to be a great test of golf. It deserves to have the Open quaifier there.

Looking forward to the next instalment.

Regards

Phil

Love talking with course superintendents. Beautiful course. We’ll have to talk about each segment on the “The Golf Club”. You know from the US perspective, I know that each part of the course is groomed. It’s beautiful seeing how the balance is kept bwtn nature and grooming on your courses.
Great work Andy. Love escaping through your journey.

The friends that go with you.

Cope with the weather, cope with difficulties on the course, makes things interesting, but a whinging, moaning bad tempered oaf in the group spoils it all.

Hello Andy,

Great to see the Torrance Course and listen to the interview.

Easy access to a golf course, friendly staff and well presented course are what I look for. The most important part is playing the game with friends that contribute to a good day out.

Have a great day.

Hi Andy,
I enjoyed that. I was in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China in August to play golf there and to attend the Qingdao International Beer Festival. We played 3 courses in Qingdao and you might not know this but there is one called Tiger Links Golf Club in which the Taiwanese developers tried to create something similar to St Andrews with pot-hole bunkers, roughs similar to those of Scottish links and would you believe a bridge resembling that over the Swilken Burn? Go to the posts on my blog under “Golf in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China” and you and your viewers can catch the pix there.
Cheers!

When playing golf outside Ireland the prime consideration for me is that you should have an option to play tees relevent to your handicap. You should not be forced to play very forward tees. Easy access and a welcoming attitude by club personnel is important to me. Golf accross America is streets ahead of Europe in the greeting received on arrival to play.

Like all golf holidays, weather would be foremost, but however Scotland offers different prospects, so hotel and leisure plays a big part, good food and tough golf courses, not necessarily in that order.

The most important thing for me is the weather. No matter how good the course, the company, the tuition or the local attractions if it rains and snows like it did in Majorca the holiday is ruined.
