i lived in Aberdeen, birthplace of golf.

it's such a different experience there.

practically everyone golfs, all ages/genders/ethnicities, families, friends, neighbours, working class, poor, rich...

Golf grass grows naturally there and doesn't need extra water.

people just walk to the closest golf course.

Electric buggies are banned in most courses, in a game you can end up walking a few km, actual outdoor exercise.

it's so different than the rest of the world, where it is upperclass or upperclass pretending, beers in electric buggies, expensive clubhouses...
