    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…
