Stymie, Where are you in Scotland and what courses do you tend to play there?  We are trying to plan a trip across the pond for next year.    As for Sheep Ranch, our caddie pointed it out from the North side of Pacific Dunes (I think).  He too, said is was magical.  Sounds like another trip is in order.

Treebound

I live in Fife, roughly equidistant (by car) from Edinburgh and St. Andrews.  I play most of my golf either in low handicap amateur senior events throughout Britain or with my wife.  Just got back from a 2-day competition in Wales.  My local course has great views across the Firth of Forth but is otherwise only just above average, and I use it more for drinking and contemplating than playing.  I visit my other course (Dornoch) 2-5 times a year.  I've played probably 30 of the "top 50" courses in the world and Dornoch is the best golfing experience of the lot, IMHO of course.  Vis a vis your contemplated trip to Scotland next year, I'd be happy to help.  Feel free to ping me on this site, if and when your plans begin to congeal.
