We're back playing golf, and we start with a bang at Royal St David's Golf Club in Gwynedd, Wales!
This was the the first part of a Welsh double-header, and the golfing gods were shining on us this day.
We were also joined, for the first time, by our co-host Jim, so he had a little to say about our round as well. Join us as we give you the lowdown of the great value for money Top 100 golf course, that we think is worth sticking on your radar.
Check out our blog which has pictures of our day, and the all-important scorecard

A golf weekend or trip... it's a thing of beauty! In this episode, we discuss why it's so good, and the key differences between a golf trip in the UK and US.
We've got 2 special guests to help us in our task, the hosts of friends of the podcast, TJ & Gary from The Basic Bogeys Podcast
They joined us to talk golf trips, and as usual, we drifted and meandered and ended up talking all things golf and life.
This was a real fun episode, as always.

I (Nish) am fascinated by golf culture abroad, and nowhere captures my interest more than Golf in Japan!
It feels very different to how we play golf in the UK, and I wanted to explore that.
In a chat with Kieron from Golf In Japan, The comprehensive guide and service for golfing in Japan, we discovered the golfing customs of Japan, the history of Golf in Japan, and the little touches around a round of golf there that make it so different and so special!
We weren't prepared for just how much knowledge Kieron had, and you can see how that would come in handy when his company is organising golf trips and experiences for visitors from around the world.

It's always one of the first questions to come up on any top 100 golf courses discussion... how do they compile the rankings? Here's your chance to find out...
We did the hard work and dug out the rating and golf course ranking system used by the official top 100 list we're using, and here it is, in all it's glory - for you to digest.
Of course, we take an irreverent look at it, and we also go on to discuss our own ranking "system" and the Dream 18 - our takeaway of the 18 best holes we play as we navigate our way to 100 golf courses in 10 years.
We also never realised how much innuendo we'd in our trawling of the official top 100 website! It's worth listening just to find that outLearn more about our journey on our website Top100.in10.co.uk
