 Yes, it's day one. It's in a city golf and we're starting in the city of Glasgow. Right, so I should mention the first tank you needs to go to the organiser of this trip because what they did was they put me in or let me loose rather in Glasgow city centre on a bank holiday Monday. I took advantage of course of Glaswegian hospitality. Perhaps stayed out a little bit too late and that is what inner city golf is all about. We were in the city last night and we're out at a golf course. In these leafy parts of Pollock Country Park I believe, I'm at Pollock Golf Club. We'll get set up and there's two things I've got to check and make sure we've got and that's suntankrine and sunglasses. White first tee shot out the way, used driver, it it best I could and blocked out by trees so maybe not driver off the first but you're seeing in the backdrop the clubhouse. Honestly blew me away when I arrived, parked down low walk up and that clubhouse looks pretty special. I've not had a great deal look inside, I'll do that post round but the good news is behind a camera woman we've got a birdie putt on the first. Can't be bad, sun's shining, loving this. Shall we keep it? Shall we see if we birdie the first? Camera's still rolling. When he just held on the back the greens look so lush as does all the course. Or not all the course, I've seen the first and the 18. Stop exaggerating but you can tell. I'm looking forward to this one. I've got a feeling first put of the day these might be a bit sharp. It's got a chance you know, it's got a chance. Go on Paul. Oh my word. What a start of the day that would have been. It just died a little bit of death but as you can see I took a load off that in terms of I hardly hit it. Really true role and like I said they look plenty quick enough. Just minutes from Glasgow city centre and set in a mature woodland, Pollock Golf Club founded in 1892 was designed by the great Dr Alastair Mackenzie. And at the time of release this course can be played for £75 a round and is an absolute idyllic place to play some golf. Well if you wanted a first impressions three holes in I would say absolutely stunning. The condition of the first three holes immaculate but the setting is seriously, I can't believe the city centre is just a matter of a few miles away. It probably didn't make as much as I should have done on the par 300 T, the six. It's a lovely little golf ball. One of the noticeable pieces round here is the way the green complex is designed. That again was sort of fairly narrow and thin almost like sort of kidney shaped again and loads of movement in it. And when you get down here it looked a fairly generous green from the tee box but when I got down there at the green I was quite pleased that I did because it was a small target. But once again the theme is a machinally kept I spoke to the caddymaster before I went out and he said that the course is a little bit behind at the moment due to the temperatures that we've had literally right across the UK. So well it's plenty good enough for me I tell you it's really good so with a bit of warm weather I can imagine them greens can be like lightning. Go on. I've had a pop in two on this par five and I think that should be a good nick. I'm not big enough to get there but that's two decent punts there on seven. A really nice backdrop to play this from but again I've just mentioned two big punts and I thought I was sat in the fringe there when I'm not. I'm sat in a very well placed there well strategically well placed bunker. One to the right, one to catch your left short as well so a par five which has got to ask you to have a little bit of a pop at it but then makes things difficult. Horrible little shot this for average golfers. Yeah. Go. Not the best. That real tough one is sort of 30 yards which well just not good enough to play in the design of the course got me out got the better of me. My ninth hole is stroke index one. I hit an okay drive, leaked it out a little bit right and didn't quite make that first bunker even but what I've noticed so far about the design of the golf course is the way in which it sort of weaves its way through that tree line and ask you in terms of strategy to make sure you're on the right side of the fairways and not do what I've done probably two or three times actually be on the wrong side of it. And what you'll be asked the question is sort of the tree line will interfere with your line to the green. I really like that. So again, stroke index one for a reason it's got plenty of length in it but also it's asking you to be a lot further left off the tee than I have. And anyway really ain't going to travel in terms of height wise over the top of there. So it's kind of you've then got to see whether or not. And I like to try it is to try and move that little ball a little bit in in the air and I like to try it and often fail but I'll still be trying. So we'll aim for the gap and see if we can chase one down there with a bit of a with a bit of left to right on it. Come on and you can do it. Well I couldn't do it and I visit straight get over. Oh my word is it nothing. Well it's gone through the back of the green which was I can't believe it's seven iron I thought I was way out in terms of distance. Bit of down breeze and I've gone right through the middle of the trees. Nothing like what I said I was going to do. Well it's only the second part through we've played which is the 12th and I think the first one was a six. One more to come but one noticeable feature again was sort of how small the greens are. Fairly tight bunker left bunker right. I had a fairly short iron in me and pitched it just a little bit short and well left myself with what is a pretty well no shot I suppose is what you'd call it. We've got a pot one up over the bunker but again nice little design through the course. I love the way this course is laid to be fair. We need a bit of Spanish hands here. See if I've got any. Oh hello. Sit down. Sit down ball. Do you know what that's still run 10 10 12 feet on for bogey but about as best as you could do. But like I said an interesting feature on both the par 3's got one more to come. We'll see what that one looks like. Right so with just two left to play I can't say what a great day we've had. I mean obviously I've not played in this kind of weather for well since last year. It's been absolutely superb but a golf course itself again nice and easy in terms of walking. That's the interesting bit. There's no great changes in elevation so very easy walking course. And the other thing is the generosity of the fairies. I said earlier, yet if you want to score well you're going to have to make sure you're on the right side of them strategically. But in terms of kind of giving up a bit and making this playable I think it's nice. It's kind to all levels and that's important as well. It is a really really nice parkland course to play. That's the way I describe it. Impressed. Make sure you come into the clubhouse afterwards and eat. They're called loaded fries. Cays and chicken on them. And have a salad to be healthy you know. Oh that's it. Pollock Golf Club is done and I really enjoyed that. I don't know which I enjoyed most the kind of golf or those cheesy fries at the end because they were amazing as well. Don't, whatever you do if you're going to come make sure you order them post round. But that's it. Back into the city centre into the village hotel and it's up early tomorrow morning for the second part of our inner city golf in Glasgow. It's Hag's Castle. Sounds like someone from Harry Potter.
