Golf In Scotland.

They can if the course is less than 5 miles over the boundary.

We are two miles from the border with Dundee - our situation at the moment is that any four members from Angus (who could in theory be from up to about thirty miles away) can play comps in four balls - members from Dundee who may live as close as two miles away can only play social golf involving two households so mainly in effect in two balls.

You can travel anywhere in Scotland from Friday.

It's not nonsense, the stay local rule is still in place and is being lifted early on Friday rather than the original 26th April. People who live in Perth and Kinross shouldn't be golfing in Fife for example. Its not the SGU's rule it's the governments

But from Friday onwards they can. The screenshot I posted from SG is about after Friday.

I'm aware of that however the post I quoted stated now, not from Friday.

Yahoo! From Friday we can now cross local authority borders. Looking forward to seeing my pals in East Lothian and Grandweans in Oban . ☺☺☺

@Val . The discussion followed on from this post.

any clubs not using the Scottish golf app?

went to book the Tain open today and it wasn't on there, rang them instead and they said they had not signed up to it... its too complicated, i'd agree

Apparently at Blairgowrie there are issues with recording General Play scores.

 

[ger147]

We use HDID for booking, comps, score entry etc.

Our open conps aren't on the Scottish Golf app for booking.

 

[KenL]

We use IG for bookings.

For gen play scores have the option of SG or IG. Used IG at first but have moved to SG when it was launched as you can post a score at any course in Scotland with it.

That's good.

Am I right in saying that to record a general play score in the app for an away course, you need to be in the local area of the course?

Yes.

This has potential to be an annoyance. Phone runs out of battery towards the end, you might need to drive back to the course to put the score through.

Or you could just make sure that your phone is fully charged when you start, charge it up in the car on the way to the course ?

I have some golf arranged in Fife in June and Highlands later. I realise it is similar to ‘how long is a piece of string’ but any thoughts on the situation in early June would be appreciate.

Many thanks

Thanks! Would never have thought of that myself. ???

Couldn't you enter your score in the away clubs PSI then it would sent to your home club

Clubhouses closed at present but that might be an idea in future.

We have ours outside in a covered area, with wipes and sanitiser available
