Golf at St. Andrews

True. VERY narrow fairways and the gourse (sp.?) is a nightmare to find stray shots. I had several friends who were caddies. Many would hang out a The Niblick, a pub situated next to the 18th green of the Old Course. They would all take in golf balls they found and sell them to tourists. This was also true for The Jigger Inn, a pub adjecent to the St. Andrews Old Course Hotel. As they saying went, "Jigger Inn, stagger out!".

Also, the Old Course is closed on Sundays, ancient custom. Many folks would take walks and look for golf balls while strolling the course.
