The Kintyre Forum

According to Bunkered golf magazine it's Battery, the 1st at Machrihanish, readers had to vote via an on-line poll from the last issue, this issue has the result and sees it beating courses such as Muirfield and Carnoustie, the vote for this issue is for the toughest finishing hole.

Good bit of publicity for the Course, although cant find a link on the Bunkered website, but have the magazine in front of me !!!!

Played it once..... and got across.

August 2003 on my own with Hugh Grant a few holes in front. A fantastic opening hole which justifies the vote. Stood on the opening tee four weeks ago with my family and unfortunately had to explain the situation- wind, confidence and ability.

A truly wonderful opening hole.
