    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.

  • Ron Arnst's HMG Course Collection Summaries
    HISTORY MAKER GOLF Championship Golf Game • Course Summaries Course Collection ONE Blackjack GC, Las Vegas NV / based on TPC SUMMERLIN TPC Summerlin’s layout, carved from a magnificent swath of rugged desert terrain by renowned golf course architect Bobby Weed, provides a good reference for the Blackjack GC. TPC Summerlin’s lush bentgrass greens, numerous water features and an abundance of pine trees all contrast dramatically with undisturbed desert washes. The course features four closing holes that deliver top flight golf drama. The final charge begins with the par 4, 15th hole – a drivable par 4 that will temp most players. If the tee shot misses the green, an “up and down” birdie is possible, but not easy, due to the severely elevated and undulated green – which is surrounded by five bunkers that regularly attract stray tee shots. The 16th hole is a relatively downhill par-5 that is reachable with two good shots. The green is guarded by water short of the green, and bunkers beyond. Only a mid-iron will be necessary for the second shot, with a birdie almost a certainty. A challenging and un-nerving par-3, the 17th hole plays downhill with the green guarded closely by a lake on the left and by bunkers on the right. Par is good score and birdies are rare, should players need to make up ground. The 18th is a well-designed and strategic finishing hole which moves right to left off the tee. The green is protected on the left by a lake. An aggressive tee shot with the driver can leave the player just a short iron to a very deep green from front to back.

  • 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.

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.

It makes you feel good that you’ve got some value out of your life and what you’ve done.” MIKE CLEGG 1938-2021 Northeast Ohio Keeping families close® Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Northeast Ohio 42ND ANNUAL PRO-AM GOLF TOURNAMENT Presented by Truline Industries The Ronald McDonald House® Pro-Am Tournament is the longest-running and most successful fundraising event in the history of the Ronald McDonald House of Cleveland, now Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northeast Ohio. This event helps RMHC NEO enhance the healthcare experience for thousands of families and children each year through comfort, care and supportive services. Our sincere thanks to our generous sponsors. PRESENTING SPONSOR UNDERWRITING SPONSORS www.RMHCneo.org Make a difference with us today. Dear Friends, Today is a special day because of a special man. Mike Clegg touched so many lives with his love of life, devotion to family and friends, and of course…his passion for the Ronald McDonald House. Mike’s passion, and now his legacy, was born out of a challenging time in 1977 when his young son, Scotty, was battling leukemia. It was a time when this special man was quoted as saying “No family should go through this.” Scotty eventually beat leukemia, but Mike knew there were still plenty of families battling similar life- changing challenges.
