  • Tron's second stop in the Western Scotland series is Shiskine Golf and Tennis Club on the Isle of Arran. Watch as Tron tries to break par on this 12-hole gem. Presented by Footjoy.
    Founded in 1896, Shiskine Golf and Tennis Club contains a 12-hole links golf course located on the western side of the Isle of Arran and designed by the 1883 champion of the Open Championship, Willie Fernie. Originally a 9-hole layout, architect Willie Park Junior was brought in to expand it to an 18-hole design. World War I made its completion fall by the wayside, rounding it out to a 12-hole track heavily featuring par-3s and captivating cliffside views.

    As a Brit, I love how Tron is so respectful of our links courses, the history, and the quirkiness of it all.

    I learned to play golf at Shiskine when I was about 5. Just had 3 clubs; a spoon (3 wood), a 5 iron and a putter but it was more about being taught the etiquette by my father. A magical place 😊

    Tron: “The 6th hole is one of the best holes in all of Scotland”
    Tron 2 minutes later: “The 9th is the best hole on the course.”

      Giving off strong Z Blair vibes from Tourist Sauce Australia.

      Tron: don't go in that bunker. The only bunker on this hole and one of the few on the course. Hits right at it, nah I'm good way right of the bunker
      Tron: these bunkers are magnetic

    Played Shiskine in May and it is a lot of fun! About as far away as you can get from the hyper expensive stadium "new links" you get with Kingsbarns, Trump and Dumbarnie. Not that they cannot be a great experience as well but this is what golf used to be and it might be worth reminding yourself from time to time. It doesn't need to be an industrial commercial monster, it can just be 12 holes in a magical setting.

  • @bradgarrett9427

    Love this one and what a perfect course. Tron hit the nail on the head when he said 12 holes is the perfect number for a round of golf.

    I've been to Islay many times and Kintyre a few. Never been to Arran, but it's always been a desire. These film room videos with Jim Hartsell are an absolute treasure.

    Love it - Arran is one of the most beautiful places - You can cycle round the Island in around 4-5 hours. Loads of good places to see, wander, drink etc. Love it

  • @johnfahey86

    Looks like great fun. Quite like the idea of 12-hole courses and being shorter in length...makes the game more accessible in terms time needed for a round, not being wrecked afterwards and short hitters having more fun.

    Great video. 12 is the perfect number …… until you enjoy the 12 so much you have lunch and do another 12!!😂 it’s a great place, so enjoyable and the film room do it perfect justice.

    Sat having a coffee one morning on the patio of the clubhouse (it was the summer's day) while out cycling. Watched a visiting golfer with his wife caddying (no other pp) dispatch a quick sleeve into the Firth of Clyde off the 1st tea. There is no cycling equivalent of this !

    Magical place, great island golf scene, and great to see it in typical Scottish Spring/Summer/Autumn(you pick) conditions. That said, I am there next week and hoping for slightly warmer weather. Hope you played Corrie while you were on Arran. Looking forward to the rest of this great mini series.

    I’ve been to Arran three times and still not played any courses but think I’ll take a week in 2025 and purchase the weekly pass which gets you on the variety of course
