I was reading the Top 100 Courses piece in the mag the other night and it turns out I have played 6 of them, but Only in Scotland though. Will be up to 8 after Crawford’s meet next year.

Royal Dornoch
Nairn
Castle Stuart
St Andrews Old/New
Gullane 1

Got me thinking how may have the rest of you played and should I try for more?
 
6 for me, woodhall spa, st andrews new, hunstanton, ladybank, belfry & The castle course (st andrews).
only been playing 5 years so not too bad.

if offered a chance to play tomorrow at any of the above 6, the castle course would win, weather permitting of course !

am hoping to play royal west norfolk and notts next year
 
st andrews old course
new course
dukes course
belfry
forest of arden (was that in it?)

hope to improve on this next year all being well

10

The Old Course
Carnoustie
Trallee

Surprised to have played 11.
Lucky enough to live near "England's Golf Coast" and to have made a few trips up to Scotland.
(Also REALLY lucky to have played some of them before prices went into orbit!!).
Would love the chance to play Muirfield.
 
Every single one.

I am a mind golfer.

Basically, I go onto the course website, look at the course plan hole by hole and imagine the shots I would play.

Its a fantastic method for playing lots and lots of courses.

I managed to post some good scores too!

Ash!!
