Do you care who owns the golf course you’re playing? Probably not.

But you can’t ignore Donald Trump now he’s back in the White House, and you can’t ignore his name on the courses he owns. So if you don’t like the man, can you still enjoy playing Trump International in Aberdeen?

There’s no doubt it’s a great course - it’s in the World’s Top 100. But only one of our presenters chose to play it….

With its near neighbours in Aberdeen both ranked in the top 100 courses in the world, it would be easy to overlook Murcar Links. But built on the same stretch of land as Royal Aberdeen, this challenging links course is developing a growing reputation.

Tommy Fleetwood won an amateur championship here when he was a teenager and still ranks it among his five favourite Scottish courses.

Royal Aberdeen Golf Club traces its roots back to 1780, though the club moved to its present course at Balgownie a century after that.

It's staged the Walker Cup and the Scottish Open and is ranked 63rd in Top 100 Golf Courses World List, while National Club Golfer rate it the 38th best course in Great Britain and Ireland.

Cruden Bay styles itself as "unique and unforgettable", and both those qualities put it firmly in the World's Top 100 courses.

An extraordinary layout with imaginitive use of the natural contours, and stunning views, mean lots of people love it. But the quirkiness and and frequent blind shots isn't to everyone's taste.

Ian and Neil regretted not using a caddy for their first visit, but still managed to plot their way around - and voted it one of their all time favoutites!

Having hosted the Walker Cup, the Curtis Cup and the R&A's Amateur Championship, Nairn Golf Club is used to hosting top amateur golfers from around the world.

So how would Neil and Ian, often described by playing partners as a couple of complete amatuers, cope with the challenge?

On a beautiful day, and with the first seven holes running alongside the beach and the Moray Firth, there was ample opportunity for sun, sea, sand and sixes. And sevens…

We begin our latest Scottish road trip with a double dose of Nairns….and we're not talking about the famous biscuits.

First up is Nairn Dunbar which has been striving to emerge from the shadow of its more famous neighbour, and is ranked among Scotland's Top 100 courses.

For centuries, Harlech Castle has seen off those who came to conquer it. Royal St David's, overlooked by the 13th Century Castle, has a similar reputation.

The club described the course as the toughest Par 69 in the world, and one of the most picturesque.

Would the latest Englishman to tackle the challenge use cunning tactics, or just rely on bravado?

The Golf Pilgrim celebrates its first anniversary by making a long overdue visit to Wales.

Aberdovey lies in the heart of Eryri National Park, or Snowdonia to give it its English name. We hear how the club was founded by a soldier whose first course consisted of nine flowerpots, embedded in Aberdovey Common.

It's come a long way since then - and you'll probably have a long way to come to play it. But it's well worth the journey…
