I'd be more than happy just playing my own course without anyone getting in my way.

The Vines used to have a Pro tournament, have played there a lot, always thought it was over rated.
If you can arrange a game at Lake Karrinyup, Mount Lawley or Cottesloe you will be happy with those.
Do drop into a few wineries up there, but make sure some else is the skipper (non drinking driver)

Just been chatting with the familia about this and we’ve decided that for my 50th we’ll do Hilton Head Island. Harbor Town, Wexford, Sea Pines and Shipyard look likely candidates.
Next year we’re going to do the “whole family holiday” to New York and do Shinnecock and Winged Foot while we’re there.
Main rationale is MiL wants to see NY but doesn’t think she will be up for it (health wise) in 3 and a bit years.

Must be difficult being so poor.

I've decided to change the B to an F and I already feel much better about it....

Harbor town is the only really expensive one on that list.Must be difficult being so poor.
Shinnecock and Winged Foot we’ll be member guests and it’s not extortionate.

Fortunate enough to have played Lofoten, 3 timesI need Troon to complete all the Open Rota. That'll be this summer or next.
Heading to Machrie/Mac and Mac Dunes etc in August.
I think Lofoten needs a visit.
. Still my favourite course ever.I’ve been very lucky in the past to tick off a lot of my bucket list. Lofoten tops them all - Dornoch, Brora, Kingsbarns, Turnberry, Fuji San, Ils Aux Cerfs, all the Surrey heathland and St Andrews courses, and everywhere else I’ve been fortunate enough to play.
My bucket list is much smaller these days but pretty unachievable unless I win the lottery now.

Mate wants me to put a package together to go to Ireland.
I took 3 friends back in 2011-12, we played Lahinch, Ballybunion (old), Dingle, Dooks,
ring of Kerry and Adare Manor, cannot remember the exact cost but I got very good deal.
Golf accommodation and Breakfast.
Just priced it, and it is now A$7,541, plus add on airfares hiring a vehicle etc.
Unless one of us wins the lottery, it will stay a dream.
Just lucky to do it when we did, it was my 5th trip to Ireland over the years, love the Country.

Augusta National
Gymkhana Golf Club in mauritius, but mainly because I would be in Mauritius
Black Mountain Golf Club Thailand. Stayed in Hua Him years ago near it, and it looks incredible.
The last one is more than possible and think I may go for it

Can recommend Black Mountain, I go every year with a group for the last 12 years......
I have played over 200 courses in the UK Ireland Spain France, not counting OZ.....
You will not be disappointed, plus there are several great courses in Hua Hin.
