In Scotland, we visited the Old Course in St. Andrews, Turnberry, Royal Dornoch, Kingsbarns, and Carnoustie to name a few. In Ireland, NCGA members played Royal County Down (rated the #1 course in the world by Golf Digest) and Royal Portrush (host of the 2019 Open Championship). Here in the states, we have visited Bandon Dunes Resort (Oregon), Pinehurst Resort (North Carolina), Whistling Straits (Wisconsin), and the Big Island of Hawaii.
