Crail 10th Sept

An absolute cracker of a day. grouped up with some great guys to boot aswell.

two cracking courses, Unfortunatley my wayward shots were punished on the front 7 holes of balcomie but i tidied it up on the other 11 holes.

Finished with scores of 32 and 30 so narrowly avoided the wooden spoon.

Hopefully the 1st of many great days out for me.

Nearest Island to Crail is the Isle of May but im unsure WTF it is. Some Fife expert (did I really put they 2 words together? ) may tell us.

Pretty sure it's an Island Val... :thup:, ticks all the boxes... Land mass surrounded on all sides by water....

Edit to add the serious stuff...

It's uninhabited and its a wildlife sanctuary. Sea Birds mainly, there is a ferry from Einster (Anstruther for the non Fifers), that sad birdwatchers (not the Frank Mac type Burds) go to fulfil their weird wing fetishes.

I went once when I was at school, some fat kid in our class got attacked by two Cormorants after his bridie!

Was a good day to be out on the links, I really like Crail, it's just too far away, 2Hrs drive home is a bit of a killer. Would do it all again though, especially on a super deal sorted by Crawford. :thup:

Always nice to have a wee victory over Bomber Val, he'll be on the mantelpiece shortly :whoo:
 
I don't know where I was in the final standings (68 pts ) but thought I had done really well to recover from a disappointing 26 points on craighead to follow it up with 42 on balcomie so needless to say I preferred the shorter course

Agreed i would do it again and the drive home after 36 holes is knackering. BUT what a deal Crawford got us all for 60 notes.

behind me then, i played ***** on the short course for 33 points. a score that had 2 birdies and an eagle, prefered the one we played in the morning.
 
Thanks to everyone for organising a great days golf, two good courses in very good condition considering the summer we have had and my playing partners John Chris & Shug for an enjoyable days golf, but highlight of the day was John draining a 45 footer in the afternoon on the big double green what a putt. cheers guys
