Good courses in scotland for merchandise

[big_matt]

Hi All,

What are some good courses in scotland to pick up clothing with the course logo on it, for example an adidas/nike/etc shirt with the course name also stitched on?

I know gleneagles is very good for this stuff and gullane has a pretty big range also.

Any other ideas? its for gifts.

Carnoustie always has a good range in their shop. Also the Old Couse shop has a lot with the St Andrews log on it.

Have seen North Berwick now have an online shop to browse their range of stuff, including head covers etc.

Turnberry is another one for your list.

Pro shop is mahoosuve. Bigger than some American golfs

Not cheap though.

Correct on all counts. I spent 20 minutes perusing and ended up with a pitch repairer and ball marker ?. It is a quality pitch repairer though. The American in front of me in the queue left with 3 bags full of gear so I reckon he bought my quota ?

I would only ever buy something if I'd played there.

All the big courses should have stuff.

If the polo shirt costs 45 normally. Add another 30 or so for the logo.

Any of the top courses which rely on tourist golf, such as Trump etc, will have a large array of logo-ed goods. Blairgowrie do a good range, but are currently running down summer stock and bringing in Autumn/winter clothing. Not all members, however, want jumpers/shirts etc with the club logo so they also carry a selection which are unbranded.

Polo shirt at Loch Lomond was £75 when I played there - so this is accurate - mind you I played there in 1996

Off topic (sorry) but I have to say I love Blairgowrie. Rosemount is my favourite non-links course.

Thanks for all the responses all.

Like i said in the first post, the items wouldnt be for me - they are gifts for people who live in other parts of the world so im not fussed if ive played yhe courses or not.

Talking of blairgowrie, would love to play there one day. Heard so many great reviews but never played it myself.

If you are looking to send presents to people across the world then you can't go wrong with St.Andrews merchandise.

Unless, I got to Augusta.

Then, I would look like "Augusta" and "Masters" had vomited all over me.

If they are going abroad then you can't go wrong with St Andrews Links/Old Course branded stuff - the clothing from the official links shop is nice - some of the items sold in some other shops in the town are a bit tacky - as is always the case with tourist attractions.

I bought a cracking Old course Footjoy polo in one of the st. andrews shops the other week for £45, seen the same design in the gleneagles shop for £70. Its one of the golf shops that are more or less next to each other.

Quality item also.

Auchterlonies is a really good golf shop.

Oops it wasnt that one, as your right, that also has another shop next to it.

It was one in one of the main 3 shopping streets, the street with the cinema in.
