    Advice on an East Lothian trip

    If you’re travelling south from East Lothian, if it’s via the A1 play Goswick, if it’s via the M6 play Silloth.

    Advice on an East Lothian trip

    If you are thinking of Powfoot, although it’s good I’d skip it and play Silloth.

    Advice on an East Lothian trip

    Try and get a twilight tee time at North Berwick West Links, if you can it save a bit of cash over the normal rate. Powfoot is worth a game if you’re travelling back home that way.

    Should clubs offer reduced green fees for UK golfers ?

    I enquired with YGT about a trip next year to St Andrews, 4 people, 3 nights (sharing rooms), 3 rounds, Old Course, Kingsbarns and Castle Course. Cost was £15,180

    Preferred courses

    Most important factor for me is design, I’d take a fantastic layout in average condition over a poor layout in fantastic condition any day.

    Tour Bag - Winter Use

    Get one if you want one, they look much better than the bland trolley bags you see everywhere. Loads of people at the club I’m a member of use tour bags. Who cares what other people think.

    Best golf snacks

    For me it’s bananas, mixed nuts and water. With stuff like cereal, it’s full of sugar so you get the peak from that then there is a crash. Keep away from ultra processed foods, they are just full of sugars.

    Best winter courses in NE England

    I wouldn’t say it’s in unbelievable condition, it gets to much hammer in the winter and as a result isn’t in the best condition in the summer. Still the best layout in the local area by miles but needs work on the bunkers, crying out to be revetted and a set up in keeping with the type of course...

    Best service you've ever had at a Golf Club in the UK?

    When I played Turnberry a few months ago, my group found the service a little poor. The service and welcome at Troon and Prestwick were first class.

    no handbag to put away, end of the day he’s not playing anywhere near the standard he’s capable of and hasn’t for a number of years.
