Pretty good week for me with 37 stabbos in the Thursday Stableford despite three blobs on the back nine - had a season's best 39(+3) front nine for 22 of them, then played the Saturday Medal today off the white tees too and managed 86/14 net 72 with several missed putts from around 3/4ft. Both rounds coulda/shoulda/woulda been much better but ended up bubbling the cash in the pair of them. The comps usually pay top-4 in each division. Handicap is back down to 12.1 now before today's round is included.
So, looking for a new putter (mine is at least 30 years old), I went a shop called Affordable (sic) Golf - to find out that people pay £500 for putters. You can buy a house* for that money in Scotland.
Ha ha golf included in the price of the stay,. Otherwise you would live here Tom, you love a bargain.🤣🤣
Just 4 of us on this trip. Mick (left) pips Chris (second right) on the 18th to take the win on the 1st day. Nearest the pin for me (tubby one second left).

So Callander was super tricky and very well designed with mounds and bunkers around the greens punishing an errant shot. The high number of par (a few quite long) put a premium on the short game to get points and I was too sloppy in that department.
The signature hole is a short par 3, with Ben Ledi in the background, that requires an absolutely dead straight tee shot to get through the trees.
