Just back from another cracking trip to Machrihanish playing the Machrihanish Open on Saturday and Machrihanish Dunes today. Played alongside Bunkers and TheCraw which as always was enjoyable. Some nice shots played by everyone but also a few not so nice ones
From a golfing point of view I had a decent score, off my new 16 handicap, on Saturday shooting 89 (nett 73) par 70 around Machrihanish. Managed to keep the same ball whole round. A few silly shots thrown away with a few three putts also. Finished 33rd in the comp and Crawford was38th who also had a nett 73.
Today at the Dunes I played some of my best ever golf reaching the turn at 5 over which included a double bogey down the first. I was 7 over at the 17 tee and slightly pulled my driver and the ball was never seen again
I have now played to my handicap in the last four rounds in a row with 3 of them in a comp. This is something I have never done before
Both courses were in fantastic nick and I cant wait to get back again. I enjoyed the company and the craic was good. The whiskey was also cheap
Just a few photos of the course.

One of the Dunes greens thats blue! It was damaged by salt spray from the sea and getting replaced laster this year. It was a strange site on the course putting on a blue surface.
WARNING: this photo contains Crawfords legs.
