Fantastic opportunity to play Ardfin and support a wonderful charity. @KipawaCharity @ukgolfguy
I’m holding an event for @KipawaCharity on Saturday 1st October at the amazing Ardfin. It’s £700 for teams of two including breakfast, lunch and a goody bag. All details (including travel logistics!) are here -

It’s for a great cause so please do share!

Ardfin, on the Isle of Jura, is an incredible course. It's open to visitors, but you have to stay on the property overnight. I think that probably makes it the most expensive tee time in the world.
You can see my review and video of all 18 holes here -

Thanks for the write up @ukgolfguy you’ve captured Ardfin beautifully.
Here’s my review of stunning Ardfin, on Jura. There’s a hole-by-hole guide with plenty of pictures and some insights into the overall package.
It’s probably the longest course review I’ve written but there was a lot to talk about with this one!

Incredible couple of days at Ardfin. From start to finish, It’s as good as I’ve seen anywhere in the world!! 👏🏼 @ Isle of Jura instagram.com/p/CFKdgirF1y3/…
After a disrupted season, it’s wonderful to see Ardfin getting some love.
I played Ardfin today and it’s one of the most spectacular settings of any course I’ve played. Maybe only Cape Wickham gives it a run for its money. But it’s not just about the views - the course itself is just fantastic. Review to follow, but am thinking it will rank v high!

Pleased to see our 7th hole at Ardfin ranked in the top 18 holes built in the last 44 years! #Ardfin #HarrisonGolf Article: bit.ly/2BrswY5

Hope everyone’s staying safe out there. From where we’d like to be, looking back on the 1st at Ardfin, care of Simon Crawford, who from all reports has the course in superb shape.

“The perception of golf amongst authorities and politicians who are not golfers themselves will be greatly enhanced,” says @BobHarrisonGolf ow.ly/p8KA50A5MmT
Very pleased that Ardfin is opening to visitors. For a glimpse of what you can expect in the stay & play arrangement, visit the new website ardfin.com #jura #scotland

This is not only a great hole it’s an amazing course. #Ardfin on the Isle of Jura off Scotland’s west coast. 400 yards of decision making. Take a 5 and head to the boathouse with a massive smile for a 🍺. Real vision @BobHarrisonGolf in the design @Dest_golfguide @VisitScotGolf

I’d recommend listening to Bob Harrison’s thoughts on the effect of inappropriate rough on golf courses, both in colour and length.
Speaking with @Rod_Morri - a great podcast overall, go to 19.30 for the discussion on course set-up.

Had a lot of fun chatting with @Rod_Morri and sharing a few stories from the course design business. Hope you enjoy it as well. @ThingGolf @GolfAustMag
The latest episode of @ThingGolf podcast is live! @Rod_Morri talks with @BobHarrisonGolf about his acclaimed career as a golf course architect, including as @SharkGregNorman's design partner and turning down designing both courses at @Barnbougle

Having done the great majority of the design at Ellerston, I am pleased to see it achieve a recent ranking inside the top 20 courses outside the US (Golf Digest) despite the small number that have managed to see it. #ellerston #golfarchitecture google.com.au/amp/s/www.golf…
Hope you enjoy reading, as much as I did putting together, a list of my favourite “10” courses! 5 from the UK, 2 from Australia, and 2 from the US. #golfarchitecture
It turns out that the talented Australian architect @BobHarrisonGolf also has a way with words. This article with his favourite courses has some classics included as well as some lesser-known choices. A big thanks to Bob for doing this. Enjoy the read!-

Great story on the Townsville GC recovery efforts. Our stage 2 holes have now been rebuilt after being washed away and will be opening next month.
February 2019 Townsville Golf Club was smashed by record-breaking floods. It has taken a monumental effort by superintendent Jason Foster and his small crew to get the course back up and running in the months since.
