Video #3 / The Castle Course, St. Andrews, Scotland

Although opened to a flurry of some controversy, The Castle Course at St Andrews will begin its fourth year of play in 2012 with some well considered modifications.  Several greens including 15’s enormous false front have been “tempered” for less slope plus the club plans to keep the surfaces softer than in the past.  Secondly, there are fewer blind “hummocks” – those large, hay covered, well- struck-drive-eating mounds to avoid.

This is one of sixteen Scotland golf course videos we’re posting on a weekly basis to start the year.   Each one provides a great sense of the respective experience which we hope will help you confirm your selections from the many available options.
