this week's flight

The greens were listed as easy. Are u kidding me? Every single hole was on the side of a hill. My congrats to the person who made up this tournament for making
it absolutely impossible to play and enjoy, I mean lying about the green conditions is a bit nasty, but if that's what u enjoy doing, go for it.....

Rebeccas garden? It says random pins but just think if it was listed as moderate or worse heh?

To be fair i just read the description and it does mention that the greens get "sillier" as the round goes on. :shock:

I played the flight last week and really liked Scottish gems course.

if you do not like sloped greens definitely avoid playing Brockenhurst RAW tourney he he from three feet away the bli is 1/4 up the pin.

oh yes and the first par 5 has a lurking tree that put me into the woods where even the deployment bread crumbs will not allow an easy escape.

As you can see in posts from the past dozen years. This has been one of the least liked flight courses used.

yep, tried to play rebecca's garden, but after hitting an invisible tree from the fairway, an approach from 2" cut (not discernible from main or top cams) going half the distance, and hitting into a severe uphill slope that bounded over the green, i'd had enough.

Scotlands Hidden GEMS ????
should be called Scotland's HIDDEN Fairways :o
would be almost impossible in Pro obtaining a 100% fairways hit :x
on some holes, the width of the fairway would be no wider than one pass of the greenskeeper's mower ........ :(
but fun to play :)

Hitting fairways shouldnt be a given surely in golf. Playing from rough or sand is part of the game.

But I know what you mean and yes its always fun to play
