In the truest sense a links golf course is between the beaches and the land, in Scotland. The course in Albany is probably the closest thing that you will get to the true Scottish experience, but in their case the beer on tap is better and the weather is much, much nicer the whole year through. No snap frozen greens here; just the occasional rainbow.
They have ther own pace in Albany; a more deliberate, thoughtful tempo. Still, if you are in a burning hurry you can always play a faster round; the course is firm.
