Distant Doonhamer Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Early stages of planning for our regular August golf trip. Recent years been up to play Castle Stuart, Nairn, Nairn Dunbar, Moray (Old and New) plus Elgin. This year thinking of basing our 4 in Banff and possibly playing Duff House Royal, Cullen, Royal Tarlair. Be interested in any info on these courses (plus others in the area), hotels and places to eat.

Banff Springs Hotel was always good for food when I used to go up that way, but haven’t been for the best part of a decade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky_nomad Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 The food in the Station Hotel in Portsoy (a couple of miles from Cullen) is plentiful and very tasty, although the rooms are pretty basic. It also has a pool table up the back of the bar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far better playing the likes of Fraserburgh or heading west and playing Moray 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Can we claim a Scottish double win this weekend? Liam Johnston won by 2 shots on the Challenge Tour in Spain. Linn Grant is 9 clear with 4 to play in the Scandinavian Mixed on the DPW Tour, her grandfather James was Scottish Boys champion before emigrating to Sweden. Marc Warren is second. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent performance by her. Think having women in men's tournaments,with the obvious reasonable adjustments, is a great idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck in Fraserburgh/peterhead (really good old style links courses)also meldrum house but a bit more towards Aberdeen and I've heard the Knowles hotel in Macduff is good but plenty small b@bs in Banff/Macduff as been mentioned Banff Springs but a bit of a walk(and a hill) if you are going into town for a couple of pints in the evening 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Can someone clear this up for me. Are the players who played the Liv golf this week now banned from playing in the US Open this upcoming week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The USGA said they would stick by their existing qualification rules. The PGA Tour's biggest problem in all of this is that they don't control any if the majors.

I did think her name was a bit unusual for a Swede. That result for Warren has come from absolutely nowhere. He's run up some horrendous numbers this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that time he has gone from 211th to 562nd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 A few weeks ago I played 9 holes with my brother, who took up golf last year and is now playing a couple of times a week. It was the first time I had played since last year and I shot 43 while my brother had a nightmare 60. We went back out for 9 holes today and I went round in 43 again while he shot a 39. Some turnaround in the space of a month... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
