In the early 70's, while in the USN stationed in England, I was fortunate enough to have joined some "flyboys" who took annual trips to Scotland to get in some air time and to play golf. I made two trips with them and played The Old Course at St Andrews, Carnoustie, and both the Kings Course and the Queens Course at Gleneagles, among other lesser known courses there. My most memorable moment was when I took 13 strokes trying to get out of a bunker on the Old Course, which required climbing down a ladder in order to enter the bunker. It was a horrible experience but one which I will always remember. Another great course which is here in Florida is the Slammer and Squire at the World Golf Village in St Augustine. Unfortunately I was a hacker then and am a hacker to this day with only occasional flashes of greatness (self satisfaction).
