Kilkenny
A mere half dozen Kilkenny clubs are in membership of the GUI and four of those have only been in existence since the 1990s. One of these, Mount Juliet, is a lush Jack Nicklaus parkland course where the Irish Open was held for three consecutive years, beginning in 1991. Founded in 1896, Kilkenny is the oldest club in the county and it moved to its present site in 1923. The club was honoured to have its course used for the national inter-club Cups and Shields Finals week in 1985.
