I posted a comment previously. This is one of those pictures with a lot in it. I have seen it a couple times since commenting. For the first time, I want to go to Musselburgh. I have seen the ancient pictures in the Darwin and Hutchinson books, where it always looked like a wide open field. I have Google Earthed it and pieced the layout together. The course's place in Golf's history is hard to beat; The Parks versus the Morrises, the fistfights at matches. And yet, somehow, I never thought the course would be much more than a relic; or worse, an amusement. Musselburgh is contained by a racetrack, so, by nature it's contrived. I had developed a belief that it was like the infield of any racetrack in North America. It never interested me from a golf course design perspective. My own passion for golf starts there. And now, looking at this photo - taken on a high res camera mounted on a drone - it's clear to me how immensely modern technology will impact the golf industry. Now, Musselburgh interests me as a golf course . . . immensely. Enough that I want to play it with hickories, not as some kitschy throwback activity. I want to play these holes (that, design-wise, I'm liking more and more every time I inspect the details) with something approximating the same weapons used by Parks and Morrises. I suspect I would find a moment or two of deeper understanding in that. A sudden thirst to jump back centuries. Made possible by a drone and a very creative photographer whose thirst was triggered first.

Golf swings are as diverse as the players themselves, each with its own nuances and strategies. So much of our golf swing is based on our physical capabilities, like flexibility, strength, and speed, This depends upon a person. In this article, we’ll discuss about five distinct types of golf swings, exploring their characteristics, pros, and cons to help you refine your technique and dominate the fairways. Golfers adopt distinct swing styles to achieve success on golf course. Read More : https://untoldgolf.com/

Interesting insights from the Tee Time Tracker

Who likes to golf? Here are some fun facts I just read about the history of golf: ✳ The earliest known references to a game resembling golf date back to the Roman era, where a game called "paganica" was played using a bent stick and a leather ball. ✳Scotland is widely recognized as the birthplace of modern golf. The game gained popularity in the 15th century and the term "golf" itself is believed to have been derived from the Old Scots word "golve," meaning "club." ✳As golf gained popularity, informal courses known as "links" emerged along the Scottish coastline. These natural landscapes, characterized by sand dunes and grassy plains, provided the ideal setting for early golf games. The Old Course at St. Andrews, established around 1552, is one of the oldest golf courses still in use. How much time do you have to golf? Are you able to get away on a Wednesday morning to beat the heat and get in a round? What if I told you I have an opportunity that will give you the freedom to golf every day if you want? I do. In 5 minutes, you can find out if it's for you too just by going through this brief assessment. Are you ready for change? https://lnkd.in/g8AxNnte

August is Golf Month! I am a huge fan of golf and particularly enjoy the #MastersTournament. Here are ways to turn lessons and traditions of the Masters into successful #InvestmentStrategies: https://hubs.ly/Q01ZQ4tz0 #MacLeanWealth #InvestmentManagement

🚨 The latest powerful off-course golf studies 🚨 We have been building #GolfLite and Blue Jeans Golf for more than 3 years now. When asked what is GolfLite, it's the bridge between Entertainment Golf (think Topgolf) and Traditional Golf (think 18 holes). 2023's National Golf Foundation study is the first time we are seeing the change in tides -- Traditional Golf (on-course-only) was actually DOWN -8% vs. 2022. I checked our investor presentations, and this was the first time since pre-COVID on-course was down. What about the bridge? It continued to GROW and ACCELERATE: +17% in participation on- & off-course +19% in participation off-course only 💪 We are growing from 4x Golf Ranch locations today to 8-10 by the end of 2024, so we hope to do our part in More People. More Golf. More Often 💪

45M Golfers in 2023. Wow! But still only 2% of them will ever break 80? Something is seriously wrong with the current golf teaching model. and we are here to fix it. #golf #golftechnology #golftech #fromgolfwithlove #golfbusiness 

Where are my golfers? I’m excited for this event…you know I specialise in leadership training but did you know there are SO many similarities between golf and being a leader? Playing golf has taught me so much about leadership! 🏌️♂️ Just like in golf, being a great leader means staying focused, being patient, and thinking strategically. Here are a few lessons golf has reinforced: 1. **Preparation is Key**: Just as I practice my swing, leaders must prepare for meetings and projects. 2. **Adaptability**: Weather changes on the course, and business conditions change too. Adapt and keep moving forward. 3. **Patience and Resilience**: Not every shot lands where you want it. Learn from mistakes and stay resilient. Both golf and leadership are continuous journeys of improvement. Let's keep refining our skills and striving for excellence! See you in June at the Whitby Chamber of Commerce golf event at Royal Ashburn Golf Club #Leadership #Golf #ContinuousLearning #Resilience #leadershiptraining #teetime #supportlocal #chamberofcommerce #businessowner #whitby
