One of the best things about golf to me is hitting your drive down the first hole of a course you've never played before and walking after it - off on an adventure - how many courses have you played for the first time this year and which one(s) did you love

I've played nine new (to me) courses this year

Strathmore
Cruden Bay
Annesley Links
Ardglass
Castlerock
Royal Portrush Valley Course
Ballycastle
Brechin
Edzell

The ones I loved are Cruden Bay and The Valley at Royal Portrush and I also enjoyed Edzell a lot.
 
Only 4 so far for me but I might book up to go to the States in September

Birkdale
Formby
Southport and Ainsdale
Broome Manor

I usually chalk up between 10 and 20 new courses a year.
 
Not that many for me this year so far to be honest, but a pretty impressive list on reflection

East Berks
Woburn x 3
West Hill
Royal Liverpool
Northamptonshire County
 
Blairgowrie Lansdowne
Castle Stuart
Dornoch
Nairn
Tain
Fortrose

Playing fewer new ones this year as trying to play at my new club as much as possible.
