Its true I tell yer.. .true. my short game was a shocker but that was to be expected. Castle Eden was in excellent condition and high recommended.

Played there a few times.. a few good holes, but I am not a great fan. Good Italian just about opposite it.
 
Loved playing Castle Eden, great course....The North East has some outstanding courses, Apart from Castle Eden, Matfen Hall, Ramside, Slaley Hall, Wynyard, and if you travel a bit further north, Goswick near Berwick is a great track.....Really miss playing these courses.

Goswick, I like a lot..Matfen also.

Slaley has gone fownhill a bit, several changes if ownership. Dunstanborough is worth a visit.

Nice courses chaps.... here's mine, if anyone is in the Big Smoke & fancies a round. More links than Parkland the way it plays. Becsuse of the location & deer they cannot cut the long grass in the rough. Its grown to about chest height on the tough holes. If you sin't straight your score aint great. Best tound at the club champs - and lots of low single players - was 78!

Looks like a nice course, we've one similar about 20km away just with kangaroos nor deer
 
Morning all golfers and non golfers.
If you play let everyone know where and how you did.
I am a total golf nut so am out golfing twice a week and do a little practice when i can, play off 12 now and should be off less due to how much time i spend at the club.
Any stories about golf, pictures etc. pop em down on here.
Knew a lad who's first shot hit a tree then dented the captains car in the carpark. If that helps?
He'd bought all the clubs, bag and shoes <laugh><laugh><laugh>

I'm keeping my eye on it rather than watch if all but if still close at 11.00pm or so I'll probably watch the end. It's a late one being on the west coast.
I will probably nod off and wake up for last few holes. Rahm off to good start.

Don't think I've ever seen DeChambeau shouting fore despite regularly blasting it into crowds. Don't think he gives a ****.

I know what the P on his hat stands for.
 
The Open starts this week..... Who do you fancy to lift the Claret Jug ?

I'll go for Oosthuizen...hitting a bit of form and brought up on links style courses in South Africa.
