It’s pretty neat good drive mate from oh Michael I’m just I’m not going to go after it huh all I I just kind of funed it out there and we’re off 140 145 I think in 140 45 all right number one that’s where we teed off there’s the bridge swen bridge and

This is number one so somebody stuck one in there pretty tight somebody’s div in there good putt straight to the can you see the trees in the background Big Trees in the background want to be as long as we’re in the left half of them have you designed this as a golf

Course now have you designed this from scratch they lock you up okay that’s 17t and they’ve got to go over the corner of the hotel Landing up there this is called the Road Hole pretty neat and I am heading straight away here over the knob here into the wind

Wind so you come up over this hill got a hurting wind and this green is nearly 100 yards wide so from here then you go almost over to the left to the red pin so it’s a shared green it’s pretty neat so looks like I’ve got a uh

Some mountains I got to have to come over this is so hilly pictures don’t do it justice at all good H here on this side 99 holes that’s it okay up slope into the wind any trouble up there no that’s where we came from I had a great t- shot

And uh lot of mountains here like a lot and uh there’s my brother Matt really wish he’d be playing today with us some trouble there and uh hit it into what 3 feet maybe I’ll take it m is shite okay good we got that that don’t remember he told

Me oh there you go just an easy shot here I don’t know I mean we’ got the gorch bushes on the right and there’s a bunker up on the left so I think this is me straight away you like it all that we do D links with

A guy once a year so I can go there one one day every year that’s my nice day of the year really okay it’s the day you look forward a lot more difficult than here yes yeah doesn’t matter whether you hit a ball 180 yards or 300 yards at can

There’s always a bunker on on your menu sh just another massive grain with a little bunker catching the right side so I uh I’m on the correct on the correct level but I do have a downhill putt with uh with a little bit of slope in it another

Shared green here as well so that’s where we’re coming from and that’s where we’re going sh Roy something just bubbled as soon as you touched it up hit something so far I’m a really big Fan all right so here we are r five is the PIN to the right the white one to that’s the one you don’t want well that’s yours okay boy I got bad lie all right so just chop it out okay in the corner that y we’re good with that

Just tried to flight it down a little bit now we go up over the hill did not hit the last one the greatest but uh wow okay good enough I suppose that’s probably 12 ft a 12 ft dip YP there something like that again another shared another shared green bot of the Hill Ro What do you think so far very different you hit a good one now if we watch it on TV can say yeah s Anders there I’ve been there oh yeah okay they found my ball good it looks like I’m going straight ahead here 126 26 number we want your minimum in the air

Is one 11 you 126 yeah just play the number no I wanted it right you all right you’ll be okay and the sun came out wow gorgeous day absolutely gorgeous day I pulled it left probably about 30 ft but I’m putting these greens are ginormous wow m right over the

Top think I can find it where are the ladies teas we don’t have ladies teas no ladies teas I have jender no Tru teas now well I had a uh over the top three-wood there that was no good believe the hole is over to the right it’s a dog leg right pulled it

Left I’ll probably have to hit it over that green in front of us I found it nice all right where’s our green the white flag looks interesting Miss is short I didn’t get it yeah I just that was a good lie I just hit a little

Fat oh my goodness when it gets up this end so they’re going to which green they’re going to the red flag they’re going to the red flag and that’s what te number 11 11 okay Flags always up to 18 gotcha now surely it’s not really hot

Weather you could build a house in there you could put what three school buses in there for you probably probably and uh this looks fun this is what we’re facing another shared green and it does this there so I have an outside chance here

At par going to need to make a long one so I got it up just over the ridge here as you can see is a big one and I’m on the correct Lev which is good again bunker long shared green this thing is massive what do we have 157 hole 57 hole

Okay up number eight we’ll see where we’re at it’s a cool walk Johnny just absolutely stuffed his so it looks like another shared green here and that is a bunker you just really don’t want to be in nice bird JB we want something more than 200 so I’m

Thinking my hybrid’s a like 225 to 240 Club What you think loving it h you history it’s not raining yeah I know it could have been so bad Come On got to say I’m pretty happy with an even par 36 on the front here St Andrew in the back te’s so pretty happy with that and uh let’s go number 10 what is going on okay I have to take a drop from this to there you can’t to be

137 okay another shared green this thing is absolutely ginormous and I have a ginormous plat too okay that was a long way There three wise judges solemn judges thank you feel that feel horrible just feel horrible if you left to the flight we have a little very little green de and you’re putting that bunker on the menu so the SM place to finish right to right to the okay what what’s the number 163 that’s the green we just played some the wives Boundary markers Wow so this is a hole we would have played earlier we would have played the one on the right over this big bunker with the school bus bunker you could get three school buses in there now instead we’re playing one up here on the left we’re playing Red Pins coming in

Yes now let go to B what is happening no B in number 12 we only got about 300 yards today that’s four right no just bailed out a little bit yeah you just St up out it a littleit that’s what again looking back at it Haven we just

Played yeah if we play to that hole we’ve just been on the green yeah now it makes sense doesn’t it yeah totally this is a hole that gives it away yep makes sense to me you ever change anything like that here probably not no it’s just how 13 years this three bunkers been

Yeah they’re uh you can’t do things I know it if it if it wasn’t what it was you know and it was it was on the open rotor yes we’d go and change things you can’t just go and change no it’s too much history and one thing we can do is move

The te back so the next two T’s you play the next two holes 58 yards well if you’re going to drop it 59 it’s okay the anti hook that’s the grain we just got done playing you like it that far okay know that going right

Up I was not trying to do that I know I I thought the the grass was going to catch it just a little bit and pull whoops he told me go for the fat of the grain go for the cent of the Grain and I was trying to go left and

I kind of went right at it pretty happy with that job my goodness there’s a hidden bunker you’ve got all these Mounds here it’s really cool that’s beautiful so where are we going you see the big red brick building a little bit left of the guys

That was still not bad for a long wait huh well done I absolutely crunched that thing right online that felt good just a nice view here the countryside you looking at one of the other courses here at St Andrews pretty cool I guess they say the train used to

Run right through here until the’ 60s I think 1960s maybe the 1860s I don’t know it’s pretty cool just walking uh up here along the road it’s pretty neat I believe the next three holes follow this good view of the city out there so you get out here and it’s a

Pretty big Fairway at least over on that side and I see a ball straight away here and then one way out up there I believe that was my line hopefully I hear it really good from from 30 where they teed off it’s a 320 run out from 30 from there okay probably

Another 12 15 214 it good okay what are these bunkers called so the big one on the left is called hell that’s hell bunker I’ve heard of that if you lucky enough to find a PPH that’s 30 or 40 years old uh it was about twice the bunker than it is now

Wow and what’s the one on the right I can’t don’t know I can’t it doesn’t matter oh JB just stuff one in there The netting on the top we had some migrating birds that will come they buil in nest in that one oh really so you

Couldn’t really walk on the top of it so we had to yeah you see that we had to shut the bunker for a whole season I see that’s just a deterrent to keep them off you’re on theing cool very happy with that so this was the bunker where Nicholas took him four

Shots to get out of this uh to got out of this bunker from the same tea I hit so thank goodness I’m not in there did not want to go in I was trying to it’s all right it’s drifting back a little bit we’re okay with that that’s on

Jubilee okay yellow flag there that’s on new obviously we’re on Old turn round this is the first hole on Eden where the two guys are that’s the first here on stra TI okay they can actually stand here and see five go course that’s pretty neat we have uh four par fours to

Finish I pushed mine just a bit right going to be in the rough but hopefully I have a good enough look at the pin here where I’m going to be okay there’s my ball exactly 150 150 it’ss pretty interesting up here so there’s a hidden bunker that you cannot

See while you’re hitting back there so we’re going to count him here one two third one here on the right there’s one up on the on the left side so this is another shared green I tried to hold on and push mine right and actually ended up tugging it left I’ve got a

Long putt somehow some way I ended up just inside the ropes here pretty happy about that 91 with a little bit of Help up by the greens is Green okay we’re going the wrong way four looks like a lot of fun over there okay here’s this should be all kinds of loads of fun here good Y no problem with that go safety first get off of 16 and then 17t is right there get greeted

By the old course they said the windows are reinforced so that’s a real positive oh wow nice Roy triple reinforced Windows you said good few dents in the old wood there anyway that was renewed for triple reinforced Windows good thing and out there in the distance there it is pretty cool views

Here so uh you see there’s one guy at the back of the green yeah a dark jacket on yeah where he is about now what about okay is that where you like me I’ll let you draw them cuz if you go over the bunker you’ve got literally 10 yards to stop it

What if I miss long left you can miss long left if you want where the two guys are I’m almost thinking of missing it over there or just go at it and go in the bunker no I think I’m in oh this is the Road Hole the famous Road Hole instead of

Going right like I should have in the middle of the grain I wanted to try to go left of the Trap and get over everything and I mishit it stood up on it I don’t know what it I hit it thin I don’t know that I have a shot be quite

Honest but we’re going to see I’ve hit it there the slope is um unbelievable here just unbelievable so okay yep I’m in the Trap we’re going to see if I have a chance of getting it out I don’t know that I do because as soon as you get it out the other

Side you uh you have a lot of fun there I don’t know that I can go this way either I could go that way I think you’ve got a chance of going that way you think so yeah on the green it just gives you that little bit more time to get it up

Doesn’t it yeah really hit down on it come down steep you need to swing it through you’re not swinging it through at all really yeah I should have practiced some sand your first few shots are no swing through at all you just I just okay well that makes

Sense which one am I is that crazy this one here right oh this is cool this really cool all right so what you think just driver go at the old Clubhouse I’d stick it on that orange crane cuz there’s there’s no point even the left end of that orange crane

There’s no point sticking it down that right side okay yeah yeah that’s what I’m thinking you’re not getting there they’re goers so they should know better they’re looking like I guess I’ll just hit it and see what happens oh my bad prob your fell that good great shot I’ll good ball

JB good swing Kevin good job you can breathe now this is the Road Hole number one should be all right should be all right sof not sad all right good one the students play a game here when is that uh when when the student play

Cuz they can have time here you uh the one furest from the right hand railing buys the drinks that’s funny it’s a cat and mouse game huh we go you could play golf going this way so that’s number one over there and number 18 so I took it stepped the left

Side I shouldn’t say that I went right center I went right at the crane and just play a little fade that’s what I was uh feeling the day it wouldn’t be allowed to build anything at the side it’s it’s got to fit in you know so basically the the

Building on the right they’re building a locker room underneath out of sight okay so it’ll be out of sight ladies really like ladies in there okay there’s no men’s like lock room now locker room is on the Left End having to extend it out makes sense that’s why you

Can’t you won’t be able to see them when when the job is done yeah it be underneath interesting pigeons and then Cola who owns the hotel he bought that and made it into apartment and they were only between 1.6 and 6.6 oh you think this is Me that’s me okay like wedge or n iron get run finish the this is the view of 18 and this is the valley of sin right there I wanted to make sure I get it up over that so and I did awesome it’s just kind of surreal here the green SLS all the way up here back to Front right just that Side felt like a lot of work but we managed to make par in the last hole and almost made birdie what a great day enjoyed it so you C the score or not yet yes sir I got it a

  1. Mike, great video. I can see your video recorder in a few shots, what is the name of it? super small, nice clear view.

  2. Great video and a good solid round apart from the blip in the Road Hole bunker. How did you find the experience of having a caddy round there? Is a caddy must would you say? Looks to be a lot of blind shots and roll offs that it would be good to know about before you hit. Thinking about going to play it for the first time this year and taking a caddy. Only live a couple of hours away so can just throw my name in the ballot and go when I get in hopefully 🤞 Did you play any golf in East Lothian when you were here?
