As for which course...I prefer the Jubilee,the new gets a huge amount of praise but for me overall the Jubilee is the better of the 2...both great though so you won't be disappointed in either.
Just get it booked and tell him to tell her who's boss....man or a mouse?? Sound like you'll need to pass him the cheese!![]()
Carnoustie isn't too far away either.
