We'll likely play 36/day. We won't get to play the old every time, but the other courses there like the New, Jubilee and Castle look awesome and can't wait to play them.<br /><br />I can't wait to stand on (and play) the same ground where Bobby Jones, Old Tom Morris, Jack, Ben Hogan and all the greats stood.<br /><br />Should I get you a cap? :-)Hooked On Golf Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10181064303614359502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17206449.post-47622462857907795622011-04-18T10:16:24.510-04:002011-04-18T10:16:24.510-04:00Not necessarily in order, it would be attend The O...Not necessarily in order, it would be attend The Open Championship, play St. Andrews, play Pebble, meet and/or interview Jack Nicklaus, and I need to come up with one more.The Armchair Golferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07086916747302169325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17206449.post-22766065939006754202011-04-17T03:44:13.274-04:002011-04-17T03:44:13.274-04:00What is your top five 5 on the bucket list?What is your top five 5 on the bucket list?Emanuelhttp://howtogolf.ezbuyonline.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17206449.post-10696328074876439702011-04-15T21:19:01.714-04:002011-04-15T21:19:01.714-04:00I will have to say that golf in Scotland was never...I will have to say that golf in Scotland was never a high priority for me, but now that I'm a bit older and I have a husband who loves to travel (he has a few shortcomings as a golfer, lol) I find myself wanting to play St. Andrews constantly. I have to also add Augusta National! <br /><br />I would highly recommend thinking of replacing Pebble Beach with any of the courses at Bandon Dunes. Just as great and not as expensive.

I wouldn't go that far, but it's on my bucket list, too.<br /><br />Another friend of mine took a golfing trip to Scotland and didn't bring me back a cap. He brought me a ball mark repair tool. It took me six months to figure out that the tool was what was tearing up the fabric of my pants in the pocket I keep ball markers, short tees, and that tool. I carry a different tool now.<br /><br />I'd prefer a cap. The tool cost me three pairs of slacks.Charles Prokophttp://fairwaywords.comnoreply@blogger.com
