    13 Courses in 13 days: A golfing experience across the Land of Saltire By Javier Pintos On May 22nd I left Buenos Aires on a trip that in the company we believe is the seed for many more golf trips to “The Home of Golf”. Although we have been in the past to Scotland and we have sold the destination for the past 4 years, this trip was a stronger bet as we were leading a 34 golfers party and we added some more days at three new destinations we had not visited yet (Inverness, Aberdeen and East Lothian) and which we believe deserve to be considered when travelling to The Saltire for a golf trip. Scotland offers not only links golf at the highest level but a lot more for devoted golfers: playing courses were golf oldest Major Championship has been played, visiting places with over 200 years of history with our game and walking along towns that breath golf in every corner. Our first three days were in East Lothian playing Gullane no.1, Muirfield (The Honorable Company of Edimburgh Golfers) and North Berwick using it as a Fam Trip trying to discover every secret of this area in order to be able to tell our customers what to expect when visiting this corner of the country. And we believe it holds one of the biggest advantages: you are so close to Edimburgh that you can go after golf to walk the city, have dinner or just discover Murrayfield, the first Rugby Museum in the world. The golfing tour was about to start, it was an intense journey throught 13 classic venues, playing them, taking pictures, glancing at every detail and breathing golf in every step.

  • Scotland Golf Visitor Survey 2016 Regional Report – Ayrshire
    Scotland Golf Visitor Survey 2016 Regional Report – Ayrshire Background and survey method The data for the survey was collected by: Face-to-face interviews at courses across Scotland – 91 completed in Ayrshire Online survey sent to golf visitors – 46 golfing visitors to Ayrshire responded Total sample for Ayrshire – 123 respondents1 All interviewing was conducted between May and October 2016. The online survey was open from June to November 2016. The data set reported has been weighted to ensure it is representative in terms of month, country of origin of visitors and region. Key Findings Economic Value of Golf Visitors The economic value of golf tourism to Ayrshire is £17.1M (437 jobs supported) 2. Profile of Golf Visitors In terms of country of residence, visitors to Ayrshire’s golf courses are split between those from Scotland (37%), the rest of UK (26%) and overseas (37%). This differs slightly from the profile of visitors to Scotland as a whole (50% from Scotland; 19% rest of UK; 31% overseas). Visitors to Ayrshire are, therefore, more likely to be from the rest of the UK or overseas than the overall Scottish average. A higher proportion of visitors to Ayrshire were staying overnight (81%) compared to the proportion across Scotland as a whole (65%) The vast majority of golf visitors to Ayrshire (81%) are male, while 19% are female which was higher than the Scotland-wide sample (12%). 1 The total sample is less than the F2F plus the online samples combined as some visitors responded to both surveys. 2 Estimates for the value of golf tourism in Scotland’s regions have been calculated using the regional spend figures from staying visitors and day visitors (excluding those visitors who live within 30 miles of the course).

  • Ultimate Tee-Off Golf Association
    PURSUITS GOLF GOLF PURSUITS For the Aspiring Golf Professional You know it’s a tough course when professional golfers complain of its difficulty. This was exactly the case with the TPC Stadium Course in California, USA, (www.pgawest.com), with some of the most difficult moguls, swales and bunkers to overcome. Pit your skills against one of the world’s most challenging courses, created by Pete Dye, and navigate through the plethora of hazards, especially on the 17th and 18th hole. Rated by several publications to be one of the toughest courses in the world, as well as once being dropped from being the PGA Tour’s Bob Hope Desert Chrysler Classic course because it was too challenging, this course is the ultimate test for the advanced golfer (green fees at about US$235, though it varies throughout the year) to conquer and be labelled against the greats, Should you prevail, enter the PGA Tour “Q School” Finals to land the coveted PGA Tour Card. Another course designed by Pete Dye, known for his “Dye-bolical” designs, is the Ocean The Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort (www. kiawahresort.com) in South Carolina, USA. In true Dye fashion, the Ocean has the highest combination of Slope Rating (155) and Course Rating (79.6) in the US, according to the US Ultimate Tee-Off Golf Association. This course features forced carries over marshes, roll-resistant Bermuda Take your golf game to new heights and tee off in the most challenging, most exclusive and most elusive grasses and a seemingly endless array of waste golf courses in the world, with the finest accessories to augment your style, if not your golf game bunkers.

  • The Open Is the Oldest of the Four Major Championships in Professional Golf and the Only One Contested Outside the United States
    The Open is the oldest of the four major championships in professional golf and the only one contested outside the United States. Always played on a coastal ‘links’ course, there are now ten courses on the rota, five in Scotland. This unforgettable tour will take you to each of the five Open Venues in Scotland to experience for yourself the challenges faced by the world’s top golfers at the toughest major of them all. Along the way your guide will discuss other places of interest with you, exploring the glorious scenery and history of the surrounding area. There will be plenty of stops for refreshments, and ‘retail therapy – the choice is yours! Located 45 minutes’ East of Edinburgh, Muirfield is home of ‘The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers’, and a ‘men only’ club until March 2017. Having rejected the idea of women members in May 2016 and been briefly removed from the Open rota, the members re-considered their position and agreed to ‘welcome women to their waiting list’. Considered to be the fairest test of all the Open venues, there are fewer quirky bounces and hidden dangers than most links courses contain, though tall heather, blind shots and deep bunkers are still there to ‘punish’ bad shots. The challenge lies in the layout of the course. Most links courses run along the coast and then back again. Muirfield, is arranged as two loops of nine holes, one clockwise, one anticlockwise. This means every hole on the course has a different wind direction from the tee. No more than three consecutive holes follow the same direction at any stage.

Early Golf in Scotland The modern game of golf we understand today is generally considered to be a Scottish invention. A spokesman for the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, one of the oldest Scottish golf organisations, said "Stick and ball games have been around for many centuries, but golf as we know it today, played over 18 holes, clearly originated in Scotland." The word golf, or in Scots language gouf, is usually thought to be a Scots alteration of Dutch "colf" or "colve" meaning "stick, "club", "bat", itself related to the Proto-Germanic language *kulth- as found in Old Norse kolfr meaning "bell clapper", and the German Kolben meaning "mace or club".The Dutch term Kolven refers to a related sport.
