There’s a pretty decent end of season offer for the Castle at the moment in case it’s of interest. https://www.standrews.com/play/offers-packages/the-castle-course-season-closing-offer
New GM Top 100 - how many have you played?
- Thread starter MarkT
- Start date
Two of my favourites in there Kaz - Rosemount may be my favourite inland course anywhere and Cruden Bay is just mental (in a really good way)
I have played Machrie (pre updates), Castle and Rosemount , all very enjoyable courses but I would not rush to play Castle off season , it's longish anyway and on loamy soil so may not be at it's most enjoyable in wet conditions.
Personally I've played 30 of the courses and enjoyed them all, always found good golf courses enjoyable and not particularly bothered about the rank order or the fact that a few other equally good courses may not be on the list. It's a useful list of courses which most golfers will thoroughly enjoy though the excercise may have the unfortunate side effect of putting up the prices.

Fairly certain Adasko on here is member at Cruden 😉
What ones you playing, You going to get to Tralee ? (jealous, would love to go back there)
Do you think there are any you wont get to play in the top 100 ? (surely only a couple of years away for you to complete them all?)
Some of the most memorable courses I have played, are not even in the top 5 in their county, but were great fun/views/crazy holes!

I have a vague recollection of discussing this on here before. The judges won't give a high rating to any course that has a portacabin clubhouse. Even if it's the best course in the world. I thought they were rating golf courses, but apparently the quality of the pint and club sandwich is just as important.
To be fair. The Portacabin they have was better than some bricks and mortar Clubhouses.
They don't always follow their own criteria when rating a course.......🤣
Any time I have played with a course assessor they have followed the criteria set out
I’ve listed earlier in the thread.
I’ve played enough of the bottom 50 to know Dundonald is more than worthy.
It spanks plenty of the higher 100 and I’ve played enough of them to warrant an opinion.
Question to you. Have you played Dundonald?

See posts 25 and 29 🤣🤣🤣
Id expect it will be next time once the clubhouse opens
The bit with assessor feedback as quoted in post 25.....
Did you ever go back and play again from different tees?
