  • In this video I surprise my dad with a round at the Old Course in St Andrews! A massive thank you to St Andrews For Golf (www.standrewsf...) for making my old man so happy! Big thank you to Seb on Golf for also making the journey up and having his first Old Course experience. A big thank you to Josh Jeffery Film for capturing pretty much all the good footage you see!!

    Peter, watching this with tears in my eyes, I lost my father 18 months ago and I would give anything to have been able too share a special moment like this with him. The smile on your dad's face was amazing. Cherish these moments. Thank you for sharing

    If I may. This really hits home for me. My father was a lifelong golfer. I never showed any interest. I was a Skate punk. Art nerd etc. never showed any interest. He passed away a few years ago. And when I was cleaning some of his things out of the garage. There was his clubs... I couldn’t bring myself to throw away or donate them. So I took them to the local range instead. I am now 100 percent a golfer. It’s all I think about. Talk about. Sometimes I just wish this had happened earlier. To have shared this experience with him. To be a able to talk about golf with him. Play golf with him. Just have that connection. So this is just so incredibly beautiful. Just magical my friend. Magical.

    Played it three times nearly a decade ago. Real psychological pressure on the first tee. The fairway is so wide it’s the burn you should worried about. It’s never diver unless into a strong wind. I played 5w every day and had no more than 9i or PW into the green.
    Managed a net 64 on the first day. Hiring a caddie is a must. Tip generously. I had the same caddie all three days. Added so much in terms of lines off tees and club selection. He like the old course was steeped in history. Plenty of memorable anecdotes.

Went to the last day of The Open at Carnoustie the following day, so had a great golfing experience. I loved the video and the music was a nice touch. You almost came out of your shoes on your Road Hole tee shot. Reminded me of myself!! Can't wait to do a Scottish golf trip before I'm too old. Cheers!!

    Oh Peter, to treat your Dad with a gift like that.... not just you --- but what it meant for him!!! Like many, I watch with tears. My Dad and I got to golf a bit some yrs ago and totally enjoyed it. Remembering the 1st time he'd taken me; in my late teens ... I hated it. 1st swing, I remember vividly -- I missed and couldn't hit the ball straight; he laughed but he really wanted me to enjoy a sport that he did, especially earlier in his life. I didn't "get" the game -- and looking back to that time, it kinda hurt his feelings. Later in my thirties, we started again with my much improved appreciation for the game!!! I grew up playing baseball -- so that explains my unsuccessful endeavor early on. I tell this story in remembrance of Dad who passed in early March......... cherish these times Peter, for they are PRICELESS!!! Nice job my friend, nice job!

    Such memories. My wife and I drove up from London to St Andrews on Christmas Day 2008. Nobody on the road at all so very pleasant drive. Played Duke's on Boxing day and then the Old Course in the 27th. Perfect weather both days and I was able to join a couple of locals on the Old Course who managed to help me avoid most of the trouble. Can't forget stopping at the coffee hut after the 9th where the chap automatically added whiskey (Good on ya mate). Memorable drive over the buildings on the Road Hole and a photo with my wife on Swilcan Bridge. Back home in New Zealand now with kids so I expect that may be the highlight of my golfing life
