Got to play it earlier this year. Good course, very serene and peaceful which is ideal.Quote:

Love Castle Stuart. Once had 48 points stableford there. Have never played that well before or since.Quote:

I’m there with a group booked through a member.Quote:

Castle Stuart is a nice piece of golfing territory. I got it on the perfect day. Have to say its greens are its protection. Some lovely holes. They’re building a new course round the other side of the bay that you can see from the 4th. Looks like it’ll be a favourite weekend resort for the rich folks.
Played The Machrie on Islay today. Weather good but very strong wind, and it was apparently blowing in an unusual direction, meant that it was a cross wind on a lot of the holes.
A superb course, well worthy of the acclaim it gets.
Lost in the final today of the seniors knockout 3 and 2, 3 putted 5 times and 4 putted once. Never good enough against a guy i was giving 12 shots to.
Definetly one that got away. :boo hoo:
Kin booo!!!!Quote:

Yesterday was a bad day.
My faithful Ping G400 driver which I've had for 6 years literally came apart at the seams when the head came away from the shaft , thankfully nobody in the vicinity was injured. And before anyone asks - a temper tantrum was not involved!
I've been told that it can be glued back together again but somehow or other I have doubts if it will perform as well as it has for me over the last six years.
:boo hoo:
