“A somewhat belated thanks to you and Billy for making our golfing stay in St Andrews such a pleasant one. It was great to play on the Old Course and well done to you both for making it happen. The hotel was excellent and of the course the setting fabulous. We would love to get back there one day but in the meantime it is a very happy memory. ”

- Charles Parry, UK

“On behalf of Andy and I – thanks again for providing such a wonderful, first-class golf holiday! We both thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the trip and the details that Scotland for Golf took care of to ensure a memorable experience. In particular, we’d like to thank you for the time your personally took to ensure we were well looked after. Please also pass along our thanks to George who provided us a great orientation. Andy and I are already discussing the next trip over and would like to line up something that involves: Old Course, New Course, Carnoustie, Troon as part of our line-up. Any other suggestions we would welcome. Once we get an itinerary we will look at talking to some of our golfing friends about joining.”

- Deb Zelisko, Canada

“I finally have a chance to email you regarding the trip that you set up for us in Northern Ireland this past July. The accommodations were perfect both in service and location to all courses and points of interest.The golf was superb; your plans and vouchers were all on file and there were no issues at any course at any time. The Ardglass course that I played last is really fun, it has some very rugged holes early on in the round. It's perhaps more fun than many of the others as it has drivable par fours and short par fives and I should have finished under par except I limped home with a bogey, bogey, birdie finish to shoot even. It gives a golfer the rugged links experience with a chance to shoot a decent score. I really liked this course and would highly recommend it on your rota. The other courses were awesome, as one would expect from courses of their caliber. RCD and Portrush are in a class of their own with the others not far behind. Portstewart has some holes that are on par with either of the two more famous courses mentioned earlier but there are a few holes that are not world class, nevertheless it is a course I would love to play on a daily basis given the opportunity.Castlerock was a great track that I really enjoyed and although Tom Coyne in his book, A Course called Ireland had a negative experience I had just the opposite experience where the course staff that I met were extremely courteous, helpful, and welcoming. We had a tremendous holiday in Northern Ireland so thank you for your work to that end. I again want to thank you and your company for the excellent service that you provide in making golf dreams come true in the U.K. You have a standing invitation for our services as tour guide/host if you decide a trip to western Canada is ever in the cards for you. Take care. Grant Schaber ”

- Grant Schaber, Canada

“Just a quick message to let you know all three of us really enjoyed our golfing on Saturday. Bill was an excellent coach and the time spent on the range and Balgove course definately helped improve our games. I'd happily recommend Scotland for Golf to others. Thanks! ”

- Neil Pedersen, Scotland

“We had such a great holiday, and much of that was because of you and your involvment. What a bonus it was getting to know you. I will be in touch shortly. Tx so much for making the trip so memorable!!!! ”

- John Cocomile, Canada

“First of all, Ian was a spectacular host and gentlemen the whole time; its amazing how we didn't have any issues with tee-times, dinner reservations, hotel accommodations or logistics and that has to be because of great planning and also Ian was on top of every detail from beginning to end...he worked hard, earned the respect of the group and deserves a raise or at a minimum a bonus for sure. I would highly recommend Scotland for Golf to anyone that is considering a trip to the home of golf. From the initial planning calls and ongoing consultation, it was clear that you knew your stuff about the courses, locations & hotels and what we should consider for such a trip. It was truly the trip of a lifetime as described and we reminisce every chance we get about the great weather, awesome championship courses and outstanding food and hotel accommodations. I only wish my forearm was more fully healed so I could have enjoyed the golf more but I take great comfort in the fact that I will now have to come back to the Old Course and slay it at a later time when I am healthy and my game is back to par. (no pun intended) Scott, on behalf of the group, a fabulous job well done to you and your Dad (the finest Haggis Toaster in the Land) and of course Ian. If anyone needs a reference on your services, please send them my way! Looking forward to seeing you again in a couple of years. p.s. If you have any ideas on Golfing in Ireland, please send me some info to ponder. ”

- Renzo Dipasquale, Canada

“I can speak for all of us in saying it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip. The courses were great, and the hotels were in the middle of everything. In general, we liked the courses in the west better, although Steve loved the Old Course after shooting 81 there. Billy scored high marks with all of us”

- Dennis Levitt, USA

“We're back home now and i wanted to thank you very much for everything you organised for us. The planning was great and we enjoyed all the courses, of course. Bill was also very profesionnal, say hi to him from us. Thank's again, see you next year, all the best, Philippe. ”

- Philippe Jorand, Switzerland

“I played some great golf courses (Lahinch, The Old and Carnoustie the highlights), and stayed at some great accommodation (19th Lodge, Doonbeg and Old Course Hotel exceeded my expectations), and played the best golf of my life on my tour. So a big thank you to you and your team for making my dream golf trip a reality. I of course will recommend your company to my friends when they seek their dream golf holiday, and hopefully I can return soon to add more dream golf destinations to my CV.”

- Leigh Beaman, Australia

“Thanks again for the most memorable golfing experience I have ever had. I could not have asked for better guidance on playing the most famous course in the world, the Old Course, St Andrews and your entertaining company. Also, I know arranging perfect weather can't have been easy. We followed the route you suggested and had wonderfulafternoon. Enroute back to Gleneagles wehad a superb dinner at Yann's in Crieff. On the way up we happened upon Drummond Castle whose gardens were spectacular. Again, Peggy, Richard and I appreciate your making ourtrip to Scotland so enjoyable.”

- Richard Fitzgerald, USA

“Just a kind e-mail to say thanks once again for a beautiful experience. Sending you one photo. Trying to have the hip lead the downswing and open its way for a smoother follow, or better position to strike the ball with body.! Anyway, good luck in your carrier, and hope to see you again.”

- Yasushi Umemura, Japan

“Scott, I had a fabulous time! Playing the Old Course (as a golf historian) was a dream come true. Hopefully, I'll be back and I would definitely use your services. John”

- Dwight Harper, USA

“We were very satisfied with the golf training program you arranged for us. Many thanks. Specifically we would like to thank for the excellent coaching we received from Bill: he was great in all his teaching that enabled us to improve our golf much more than we expected. In addition to his outstanding competence, we really appreciated the passion and motivation Bill devoted to our program, which went significantly beyond his normal duties. The most important outcome is that Bill made us love golf in a such a way that we will keep on playing with passion and continuosly striving for improvements ”

We will have a life-time of memories and are seriously thinking of coming again. We will let you know when. When you and your Dad decide to come over here, please let us know.

“Our trip to Scotland was and experience I will never forget. Thank you for making the experience so fantastic. Bill was great. Not only was he awesome to have as a guide, but to have him as a swing coach on the range gave me some great ideas to practice now that I'm home.”

- David Ellis, USA

“trip of a lifetime--and you and Billy made it extra special! Thank you both very much. ”

- Steven Fisher, USA

“With about 3 weeks of reflection, my general assessment is that “this was a trip of a lifetime”. You, George and Ian all made us feel at home and made sure that both our golf and non-golf experience was virtually perfect. I have attached some pictures that I have been distributing to friends/family summarizing our trip. I have some special words of praise for Ian. He was very attentive and thoughtful. This occurring all the while his wife was getting a very important eye operation. I’m sure you know this already but he’s a pro! Final comment is reserved for the beautiful weather that you arranged.... well, we were at the least very fortunate. I wish you and the business continued success. ”

- Dwight Hawkins, Canada

“Just a short note to thank you for a wonderful trip. We all enjoyed it, especially the boys. Please pass along our thanks to George and Bill as well. Bill was a great host and the boys enjoyed his many stories and experiences. We will definitely look you up for our next trip. Great product and wonderful experience. Cheers Tim ”

- Tim Botts, USA

“From the first emailed inquiry until my final putt to end a memorable round on the Old Course, my experience with Scotland For Golf was outstanding. I feel privileged to have Scott as my pro on the day and having him guide me around the Course was the highlight of a month-long holiday in the UK. He pointed out a few interesting features around the course, gave me some good advice and told many interesting anecdotes about the Open. It far exceeded my expectations and, I feel, contacting Scotland For Golf should be the first priority for any keen golfer interested in playing at St Andrews. ”

- Andrew Cameron, Australia

“David and I really enjoyed our intensive golf lesson with you yesterday. Shame the weather wasn't like it is today. We have some good takeaways from yesterday and will let you know how we get on. I'll let you know how many air shots David takes :-) ”

- Stephen Hoare, UK

“We had a fantastic time in St Andrews. A massive thankyou for arranging it all for me. The accommodation was fantastic, great location and hospitality and the rooms were perfect. I am very keen in making this a regular occurence ”

- Jamie Hillier, PGA Pro UK

“On behalf of all the guys in our group, I would like to thank you and everyone at Scotland for Golf for the wonderful time we had in Scotland. The tour you put together was everything you said and lived up to all of our expectations. The courses were in great shape and the Scotish dinner you and Greoge provided at the New Club house was exceptational. It was one of the highlights of the trip and the first thing everyone mentions when we talk about the trip to our friend. Also, please thank Ian, our driver, for us. He was great and really showed us a good time. Selecting the limo as a transportation option was truly the way to go. I think we would have had a difficult time navigating around Scotland without him. Ian kept us focused and on track to make it to the various courses with plenty of time to spare and showed us several sights we would not have seen on our own. Once again, thanks for everything and if I ever get a chance I would definitely recommend Scotland for Golf. Rick Sibilla ”

- Richard Sibilla, USA

“A big THANK YOU for all your help in making our event in St. Andrews a big bang. I received overwhelming feedback from all our participants. They said it was the best golf event they ever had! I received a nice present from the group: They made a huge handicap certificate for me with a handicap of 11.9 and the partnership cup, that our Roche attendees won, is now standing in my office for one year ... not so bad :o))) I guess I need to start my golf career soon, to meet this handicap before I am sitting in a wheelchair :o) So again, thank you & cheers ..”
