Caddie Golf Tours

A list is a list and it will tend to be subjective and that is surely the case when compiling the World’s Top 100 golf courses as Golf Digest did recently. But it was rather gratifying for we golfers in Scotland to see that fourteen of our greatest golf courses were named on it and all but one of them can be accessed without resorting to a member taking you out for a game of golf (Loch Lomond). Royal Dornoch GC Your golf party could easily be playing on one of the following courses anointed by Golf Digest, not forgetting to include a few of the other classic courses from the +500 dotted around our wee country. Here are the Scottish golf links and their positions on Golf Digest's World's 100 Greatest Courses : 6. Royal Dornoch GC 7. Old Course St. Andrews 8. Muirfield 19. Turnberry Ailsa Course 31.

This is one super golf tour of Scotland that, if we may suggest, is only to be recommended to seriously fit golfers who are well and truly prepared to play x11 rounds (at least) of Championship golf over nine days. Carnoustie Championship, Par4 2nd 'Gulley' The Chicago Boys are one such dedicated group with six having low single handicap figures and the remaining members made up of solid mid handicap enthusiasts. During their last tour they played x12 rounds in seven days! It should be remembered that these golf courses regard themselves as walking courses, no carts, therefore a decent level of fitness will be required to undertake a tour such as this.  The golfers are staying in a mix of 4 and 5 Star accommodation which will certainly help caress their bodies after a day spent out on our Championship Links. Travel is by luxury coach. At the time of writing there is o nly five months until the first golf ball is struck at the magnificent Kingsbarns Golf Links an...

A quick visit to the Scottish Golf Show in Glasgow yesterday and I managed to introduce myself to the iconic Ryder Cup trophy which was on display at the Gleneagles stand. It is really golden! The Ryder Cup & Caddie Golf Tours' Boyne I managed to see, visit and get most of the information I required from the Golf Show within a couple of hours. It was the last day and towards the middle of the afternoon when I arrived but still managed good chats with Gleneagles, Carnoustie Country, Machrihanish Dunes, Turnberry and the Scottish Golf Union representatives who all had excellent booths.
