I had the pleasure? of playing The Old Course St. Andrews on July 5, 1976 while I was stationed in Scotland. On the trip down there it was a bright sunny day. When we arrived in St. Andrews the town and course were shrouded in thick fog. Our tee time was 7 AM. There was no waiting for fog to lift. It was play or leave. We played and I commenced to lose ball after ball, because once it got five feet in front of you you lost it's direction, and they had a marshal there yelling to pick up the pace. I was lucky my partner was playing that day, as we got to the eighteenth, I made the green in two with about a 15 footer left. The other guys had made their putts or picked up, when my partner tells me that if I made my putt we would win a quid a piece, and needless to say I was so elated to have a good shot during the day that I holed it and we made our merry way back to the base after stopping for a couple of pints. Still would like to play it in sunny weather, but alas, age has got me in it's grip so that is just a dream.
