Trump's Turnberry with Yourgolftravel

I would have to be very personally and individually affected by an individual to not let it allow me to take advantage and enjoy something that they own which I would get pleasure from, Trump doesn't tick that box so it looks a great deal to me.

Likewise, I have 1 such protest in my life and it's Arnold Clark who tried to stiff me on the last car I almost bought from him despite buying 5 previously. I told their sales manager I'd never buy again from him, ha sniggered and said thats up to you. It was, I got me deposit back and have never bought another from him since. That was 13 years and 6 cars ago.
 
This could have the makings of a good thread :rofl:

I boycotted Sainsburys for years due to them apparently paying ridiculous amounts of money to an certain overrated annoying chef, I've only just started using them again.

I'm currently considering adding Coors to the list after making me ill yesterday.
 
Fwee Bwian!

I've been boycotting Romans for years. What have they ever done for us?

Interested in a Trump trip if it happens...

:confused::confused: that still does explain why you're protesting against him.

The majority of US citizens voted for him so he can't be that bad...can he??

The majority voted for Clinton, but he won the electoral college vote. But then the electoral college went back to vote and he only just won that. He only won for one reason, he lied through his back teeth the lower educated element of the US and they were too stupid to see through it. Yes most politicians make false promises, no matter what country it is. But to bare face lie to get someones vote by promising to make their life better, to then go and do everything that is going to make it worse, is just ethically wrong.

Another thing that helped him win was the interfering from the FBI and the Russians. The FBI open an investigation into Clinton one week before the voting starts, then as soon as the voting is over stop the investigation. Little bit fishy isn't it, looks like someone at the FBI had another agenda.

I watched a film called Truth last night , all about the G W Bush election and the CBS investigations, quite similar.
 
Has no-one seen the tactics he used for the course near Aberdeen?

Most corporations will do something underhand but we cannot know everything they do, so we don't boycott. When we do have knowledge, we should make a stand if we feel it the right thing to do. Some will and some won't. I'm in Scotland every year for golf, but not a Trump course.
 
Wouldn't surprise if there is a good amount of people who won't play Trump Courses because he owns them - the program about the issue surrounding the Aberdeen course didn't paint him in a very good picture and it's certainly one course I don't want to play because of the way he went about it.

The original cost to play Turnberry after the changes was reputed to be over £200 a round ? But seems lots of good deals about for it - heard rumblings about people not wanting to pay the amount he was asking so it's been quiet since it opened again
 
I've never played in Scotland so I can't wait to go up there and play some of the quality courses, especially the Trump owned ones.

I hope I get a bag tag with his picture on 😜

The only reason there are deals for trump is that it's winter rates and all the tourists that shell out the big bucks have gone home, all you have to do is look at Royal County Down's fees as the do exactly the same, they can sell out during the summer at full whack.

when birchy odvan hobbit and myself played trump Aberdeen in September it was packed with tourists paying £880 a tee time.

The Trump courses are not struggling!

Okay, what have you done with the real LQ?

We want a full on headless debate about the next man to nuke the planet...

No idea if they are struggling or not but was Turnberry packed out during the Summer - just heard a few grumblings that the original package for Turnberry wasn't as well taken as expected

Have no doubt that tourists well mainly Yanks will flock to the courses and will happily pay over the odds for a round as that's the norm for them back in the states.

But people will avoid some courses because of Trump - won't be enough for him to make any difference
 
I'm not a fan of Sir Nick Faldo, would never stop me playing one of his courses. Laughing at some of these comments as Trump doesn't even have the keys to the big White House yet.
Trump is an easy target, Clinton or Trump that was the choice, poor Americans 🇺🇸
 
Recently found out that I can get a real bargain there.
One of my clients has just joined and has promised me a free game on the Ailsa next year. Will just need to keep reminding him of this 😀😀

The rumblings in Leighton Buzzard must carry a lot of clout.

Behave yourself, get back to pretending to be black ops. Melt
