Jeff, wished been able to meet last week. Tepper told me you were coming but my wife and I were headed to Reay the day you played Golspie and then we did a day tour in the Orkneys.


I agree that Reay is a treat. And the five par threes at Golspie are unlike any on one course I've experienced.


Dornoch in its current format is interesting.  The procession of four balls with red-bibbed caddies on the most perfect links fairways I've seen does seem surreal.


We just played Fortrose on Friday and compared to Reay and Golspie, it's a little...boring?


Agree across the board with your thoughts.
To be fair we had Fortrose on a dead calm day.
I also played Friday.

I have posted before that I am hard pressed to think of a better set of Par 3s in terms of quality and variety than Golspie. CPC, Swinley Forest, and Somerset Hills probably, but that is pretty elite company.
