    I’ve been a member for 2 years now and love the course. Always in great condition, very friendly and professionally run. The food is fantastic too. When the wind blows it’s a challenge and a half. Love it love it love it. Thanks for filming it. 👍🏻

    Great film Andy. I've played Craigielaw on several occasions with Mark and have always enjoyed it thoroughly - even when having to pay out at the end of my round to Director of Golf, Jonathan (Porteous).
    You will have found (as I have) that the clubhouse facilities and restaurant menu are first class and the club steward/catering/bar manager, John and his staff do a magnificent job in creating an ambience which is relaxed yet extremely professional.
    I can't wait to visit again.

    What a tough, tough course with the wind, bunkers, and crazy knobby greens. Looks like a real challenge.

    Great video as usual Andy. Glad u enjoyed Craigielaw.
    Crazy story to tell here - in September 2017 I was at a fundraising night near my house in Edinburgh. A 4ball for Craigielaw has been donated and lots of people were asking where it was. To be fair 99% of audience were clearly non golfers.
    I told compère to explain it was just down the road Aberlady only 30 minutes in the car.
    You could hear the rumblings of disinterest in the audience.
    I stuck my hand up with a starting bit of £20. There were no more bids...

      @joewilson1295 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Average Golfer Andy - and for the icing on the cake, I managed to get my club Musselburgh to donate a 4ball which was auctioned at the same fundraising night. It went for well over £100.

  • @derekmclellan6292
    @derekmclellan6292 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Agree Andy, every time I play the course it's hard to believe they only built a golf course there 20 years ago . At least the sand wedge got a good workout. Oh and Eric the poet is a legend.

    • @TheAverageGolfer

    I'm looking at the way you play these Scottish courses, and I have a question to ask. Are you really an average golfer nowadays, Andy? I"m guessing you're well inside single figures and fair play to you if you are. Also I'm really enjoying the higher production standards we're seeing this year. Top marks.

    • @TheAverageGolfer
      @TheAverageGolfer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have been a single figure golfer for many years, I rarely score or play in comps nowadays. The channel title is reflective of the challenge we all face as average golfers as oppose to hcp. Really pleased you have noted and liking the extra effort gone into the production this year, thank you
