In this episode, we break down the seemingly daunting task of planning a Scottish golf trip. Ian, who has never played golf in Scotland, assumes the role of interviewer for Graylyn, who is an expert on all things Scottish golf. We discuss how to choose the courses to play, the best time of year to visit, how to pace yourself, and other essential information. Graylyn also takes us through his steps to painlessly plan a golf trip to Scotland and finishes with a story of a very memorable round on the St Andrews Old Course.

“What we think of as golf course architecture today is vastly different from what it was 20 years ago, let alone 50 or 100.
