The Machrie, Machrahanish and Machrahanish Dunes Early Autumn 2020

[Rlburnside]

Glad you’ve had some good weather so far , lucky as some us have had gales and constant rain, enjoying seeing the photos? When I was there the road down to Cambletown was good but decided to take the scenic coastal route back that was a mistake as it was a slow and single track road had to concentrate that much I never got to see much of the views.

A guy not from our group had a hole in 1 this morning, and is standing a round of drinks in the upstairs restaurant

Might have a wee dram ?

Just married - confident it'll not be his only hole in one today!

Can I just say that you have me to thank for the beautiful weather you are enjoying there at the moment.
Had I put my name down for this, which I must be honest I did quite fancy when I saw it first appear, it would be absolutely hammering down with rain and blowing 50mph+ winds right now.
So enjoy.......

Thank you Islay.

You have been stunning. The weather for October just incredible.

2 days in shorts and shirts. Just unbelievable.

The Machrie is something else. Just a superb course with amazing staff.

Hope the weather holds out for you all. Cats and dogs down South.

Why would you hit a 3 wood you can land a jumbo jet on the first fairway with even more bail out room to the right.

Smash that big dog!

No he went ultra safe but its a better story to say he was on the road. He made birdie at 18 off the first tee.

I always think that playing the 18th from the 1st tee at Machrihanish would be a great 19th hole/play off set-up
