With that comes great expectation, and Pacific Dunes ABSOLUTELY lives up to the hype. With unreal views of the Pacific Ocean and rolling hills with beautiful yellow gorse (in season), it truly leaves you speechless. With a great mix of gettable par 4s, short par 3s, long par 5s it truly leaves you s...

Designed in 2001 by Tom Doak, this course provides amazing views while challenging golfers in every aspect of their game. Pacific Dunes consistently ranks as one of the best public golf courses in America for a reason. The courses design, views, and experience provide golfers with a round of golf th...

The course that opened my eyes to what golf could/should be.

I have been to Bandon Dunes resort 12 times and counting (13 is later this year). I have played Pacific Dunes about 40 times-it is my favorite course at the resort, my favorite USA Public and I feel it should be no worse than top 25 USA and World. I had never played a links course nor many courses w...

America's Linksland-One of the World's Best

My first trip to Bandon Dunes was about 14 years ago and it changed the way that I looked at golf architecture/strategy/design.

It inspired me to go to the UK and Ireland many times and reinforced that firm/fast/strategic is superior to Soft/Spinny/"Test" golf. I have returned a dozen times and played Pacific Dunes at least 30 times. Pacific Dunes is definitely a top 25 course in the world and I feel the best USA public cour...

Tom Doak created a masterpiece that transports you overseas. The greens are amazing, the views are spectacular, and the walk is idyllic. Pac Dunes was a blast for a golfer that plays at a 12.2 and anyone with a passion for golf needs to add this course to their list. The replay option the resort has...

To borrow a term from a famous podcaster, the course is Electric!

. Engaging the whole way through with very memorable holes on and off the ocean. Difficult but playable, it can certainly eat your lunch on an off day in certain spots. I think 6 is my favorite whole on the entire resort for the simple reason that it could be an easy 3 or easy 7. Top 20 set of par 3...

The stretch from 9-11 is unlike anything I have ever seen before and the views along the coastline are as good as it gets!

This is my first Bandon Dunes course, so not able to compare its sibling.

It gets real links gene at ocean-side. Those holes around the big dune are none to second. Stunning ocean view on the top of the cliff. Bunkers are strategically placed and shaped, which set shot angles in demand. Greens are very hard to read as we all know where the ocean is. I make few three putts...

This is the best course at Bandon Dunes and maybe Tom Doak's finest work to date.

It is definitely one of the most unorthodox courses in the top 100, and while it's not perfect (18 is a bit of a clunker), it might be as close to perfection as you can possibly get.

Arguably the headline act at Bandon Dunes, this Tom Doak designed world top 25 course offers a blockbusting assault on the senses.

0 Likes

The varied dune and clifftop landscape must have given Doak goosebumps when he first set sight on it, and he maximises the use of the land and its many qualities to quite devastating effect.This course is an exacting test in still conditions, never mind in the brisk winds that frequent these parts. ...
