Product Description
Eight middle-aged avid golfers journeyed to Scotland to fulfill a life-long dream of playing the British Open courses. It was a golf til you drop itinerary and included all the Scottish courses on the British Open rotation: Carnoustie, Muirfield, Royal Troon, Turnberry, and the Old Course at St. Andrews. The group also played Prestwick, the site of the first British Open, and several other famous links that are used as qualifiers for the Open Championship. They encountered all the challenges of links golf in Scotland: wind, rain, gorse, heather and pot bunkers. Each of the ten days was a chance to face the toughest courses in the birthplace of the great game, and gain memories that will be treasured by the group to the end of their days. Tanner Stewart captures the joy of playing golf with close friends on the great historic venues of Scotland. This book invites the reader to join the group as it weaves a rich tapestry of unique experiences in golf and life.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and recommend it highly to any golf enthusiast! It's about a group of 8 middle-aged men going on a golf trip to Scotland and the courses they play while there. St. Andrews, Carnoustie, Turnberry, Muirfield -- all the courses you dream about playing after watching the British Open. More than just a travel journal of a golfer's dream vacation, the book is a collection of the conversations of reunited friends who reflect on the past, and think about their futures, all while immersed in the historic beauty of the motherland of golf. I think it would make a great birthday or father's day present for any golfer in the family.
