October has been a delightful month with good sunny weather that many of our visiting golfers seem rather surprised to be enjoying. Our golfer Michael, pictured, from Minnesota has been taking advantage of the benign conditions enjoying his golf with 7 of his buddies and their golf tour of Scotland culminating with a final round on the Old Course St Andrews. Michael a 10 handicap managed to play his best round of the year on the Old Course St Andrews shooting a 38 + 38 = 76. A bogey at the first did not upset and steady golf followed until a blistering burst of 3,3,3 over 7th, 8th and 9th. No daft numbers on the back nine, which supplied one birdie on the 14th, brought his last round in Scotland to a fitting climax.

The golf season on the links courses at St. Andrews generally starts on the 1st weekend of April with the now traditional event of playing the Old Course in 'reverse' or as they would have played it during the 17th/18th & 19th C enturies. The 17th green on the 'Reverse Old Course' what we now play as the first. The course is played in a clockwise direction with the 17th Road Hole green becoming the 1st.You then tee off from the side of the green to the 16th green which now acts as the 2nd hole, followed by the 17th tee to the 15th green which is now the third and on it goes......it is truly odd for the golfer because this is not how they have viewed the golf course on TV and certainly not how they would have pre-planned their route to the gr...
