Check out the No Laying Up Tourist Sauce video on YouTube when they visit TOC - they go for the early start approach and I think 4 of them get on. It’s a really good explanation of that and the course as a whole - even if you’re not keen on the characters.
Normally "have you actually played before"No one has ever asked me that.
Maybe you don't look like the type that will pay top dollar for a quality courseNo one has ever asked me that.
By everyday people? Or just by people who have played the Old Course themselves.Maybe you don't look like the type that will pay top dollar for a quality course
I've been asked that question several times.

Or me, when they hear I play golf they usually just walk away.
I usually do get asked that, but possibly because I live in Fife and most folk think Stan Drews is next door to everywhere in Fife. They are usually surprised when I explain it’s a near hours drive away.No one has ever asked me that.
But that's good, because it leaves just you and me to carry on talking about the important things.It's the opportunity as much as anything

After 8 pages I finally think I get it..
The best way I can describe this sudden realisation is i’ve always been a fan of music / sports events / entertainment and one venue I always wanted to tick off the list was the iconic Royal Albert hall.
The handbrake surprised me for my birthday and purchased 2 x tickets for a David Rodigan concert.
Just standing outside the venue waiting to go in was an experience in itself and once in I was in awe of how much history this place had. It reminded me of some sort of colosseum where the greatest gladiators on earth came to entertain. Hard to describe but people get my drift.
Now I can only assume this is how the majority of people feel when they think of TOC and can understand when people get aggrieved when others don’t conform.
The home of golf - the sport we all love to play. I get it, finally

A bit like vegans, coeliacs and "theys".Ah, the how do you know if someone has played the old course, because they will bring it up at every excuse during any golf conversation.
Pity that you did not get that TOC is not the home of golf..After 8 pages I finally think I get it..
