Going back a couple of pages, I'm hoping that Tom can share some information about Isle of Harris and Traigh?

In terms of my last 10 I have played golf just three times in the past 3 months - at Lion Lake, Discovery Bay and a par three course at Clearwater Bay.

It was the first 6 holes from each course and was pretty good if you are short on daylight.  However, I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as playing either course individually.

Oh yeah, that's right...12 holes.  Would definitely be enjoyable as those are 12 really good holes.  I'd like to see a full 18 composite.

Moor or less, you would be correct.  I almost swapped one out to de-moor it, but ethics being what they are...

I haven't played much golf this year, so this goes back to 2013.  Most recent first:

Silloth on Solway
Northumberland
Gerrards Cross
Seaton Carew
Muirfield
Elie
Kingsbarns
Crail Balcomie
Crail Craighead
De Pan

I'm honestly surprised, that list reads better than I had expected.
In June I will be riding the first three stages of this year's Tour de France route for charity.  630km (394 miles) in three days, with 7800m (25,600 feet) of climbing for the William Wates Memorial Trust (https://rideleloop.org/the-charity/) which supports underprivileged young people.

How do you like Kizer?

It's pretty decent. It's not going to win any architectural awards. But the holes are fairly solid (I can't think of any truly bad holes, though I'm not sure how I feel about #17), there are a variety of tees, the pace of play is good, and $35 walking on a weekend is a perfectly good value especially since it's a 10 minute drive for me.

It's very playable despite having water on probably 13 holes, but when the wind kicks up suddenly those wide playing corridors don't feel quite as wide.

Contrasted with Jimmy Clay, which is less expensive but has several just plain dumb holes, I think the extra $ is worth it to play Kizer.
