my name is mike from Ireland and I'm looking forward to discussing golf matters with ye all and getting the better of this game.

happy golfing!


Hi Mike. Welcome! I hope you're able to enjoy a bunch of those wonderful Scottish golf courses. Maybe one day I'll get the honor.

Do you get to play regularly in the winter months?

Hi,

Yes I do play every week, come rain or shine I get out and do my best, at the moment it's very frosty so we need to watch the greens but I'll get in 9 holes at some stage - a few of us are hoping to play St Andrews in Scotland next summer and that will be my first visit there.


Hey Mike! Glad to hear golf is still going strong in Ireland.

Are there a lot of courses to play in Ireland? I've seen some reviews saying Ireland has some of the best. Is it true? Might have to make a trip over there to play when I go to Scotland next year...

what course do you play out of, Irish people?

Ireland has some of the best courses in the world! Tiger comes here every year before the British Open - Waterville is a favourite of his (as well as the late Payne Stewart)

www.top100golfcourses.com

Irish Couses:
#2 Royal County Down (Walker cup 2007)
#13 Royal Portrush
#19 Ballybunion
#42 Lahinch (Old)
#47 Waterville
#48 Portmarnock (Old) (Walker Cup 1991)
#51 European Club

Not on this list but other great courses:

K-Club (Ryder Cup 2006)
Carton House (Irish Open 2005, 2006)
Mount Julliet (Amex/CA WGC 2002,2004)
Druids Glen (Irish Open)
Cork Colf Club
Old Head of Kinsale (spectacular)



There are something like 400 courses in Ireland which is unbelievable for a small country/island. I think it's the highest proportion of courses to people in the world.

I play Loughgall. It's crap.

Walked Royal County Down for the Walker cup though, and It was absolutley the mose stunningly well manicured course I've ever seen. I dream of playing it someday. (Winter green fees are only something like £50!)
