“Having played yesterday in your Seniors Open, I would like to express my thanks to the Club. I had a great day and the course was in excellent condition for so early in the season. This was my sixth visit, and I hope to be back next year.”

"Having played in your Senior Open today for the first time I was very impressed with the layout of the course and its presentation. It does great credit to your greenkeeping staff. Every hole had a fair but different challenge for the club golfer and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I must say 'thank you' to your helpful and efficient admin. staff on the day for re-allocating my tee time which allowed me to finish more or less with my three colleagues and enjoy a meal and a drink in the clubhouse with them after the game.
Thank you for an enjoyable day, and, hopefully, all going well,
I will see you next year."
Sandy Keay
Member and Past Captain of Dunkeld and Birnam Golf Club
“Today I had the pleasure playing in the gents senior open.
The course was a good test of golf and extremely tidy, I am sure this is due to the greens staff and there dedication.
Thank you for a warm welcome. Hope to see you next year.”

“It was my first time at playing Falkirk in the Ladies open
on Sat 3rd May 08. The course was in excellent condition, considering the amount of rainfall.
I always think that my home course (Macclesfield) takes some beating, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Thank you to all the organisers who gave us a warm welcome.”
