He played the first 2 rounds in a fog where he couldnt see much more than 50 yards by the sounds of it!

[FairwayDodger]

That's amazing going. Mortonhall's a nice course but not the shortest or flattest and as DelB says it's been chucking it down all afternoon.

Round 10: 88 mins. 76 shots

I salute you sir, cant imagine how your feet feel after 10 rounds in one day!!!!

 

[Junior]

Crikey, imagine how far he actually walked....probably 40/ 50 miles miles my god i'd sleep for a week after that !!!!

 

[fundy]

His estimate was 52 miles I think!

 

[Richuk123]

Its an amazing feat but surely he didnt walk them all. Rd one in 1 hour and 10 min?? thats 5 min a hole roughly.

if he has walked them all, then i salute you sir.

He's not trying......

Read the earlier link which detailed his plans, he definitely walked all of them! He had a pencil bag with 6 clubs in and even putted with his bag on his back to save time, teed off with a 3 wood off the deck to save having to tee the driver up, tried never to miss long as took more time etc

 

[HawkeyeMS]

When I saw the title I was gonna say it couldn't be done but that is a phenomenal achievement

 

[Crow]

Absolutely amazing, and consistent scoring all the way round!

I'm whacked after 27 holes in an evening.
