Trump International Golf Links - Ireland 19/12/2017

2^nd 9^th 56^th

Frankly, I didn't know what to expect from Greg Norman's "Doonbeg," now Donald Trump's "International Ireland." Both are such polarizing figures to so many. I remember...

Dooks 18/12/2017

4^th 27^th

What the "Top 100 Golf Courses" has already written in their summary review about Dooks is worth repeating and expanding upon. Yes, Dooks is probably one of the most wond...

1^st 1^st 7^th 19^th

Probably more so than any other course in Ireland, Ballybunion (Old) gives the player (and visitor) the best overall golfing experience one can imagine. The drive to the...

Old Head 27/11/2017

1^st 17^th 71^st

Royal County Down (Annesley) 25/11/2017

3^rd 9^th

Played it for the first time back in August (only because, despite our begging and pleading, we couldn't get squeezed on to the Championship course :-) The course is sho...

K Club (Palmer North) 25/11/2017

1^st 26^th

Played it for the first time in August. Now don't get me wrong, I love Arnold Palmer -- but I'm not a big fan of his golf courses. Hole designs are somewhat redundant -...
