Ballybunion Golf Club

Ballybunion Golf ClubIt is a course that will test your patience. It is not a course that favours one particular style of play over another, but one that simply rewards good play and good shots. For example, the 8th is only 155 yards and plays almost straight downhill, yet you must hit your shots within a 10 to 12 yard area or face a bogey.., or double-bogey. In a wind, it’s one of the most demanding shots I’ve ever faced. And that’s the character of the course. The 11th, a 446-yard par 4 perched right on the seaside cliffs, is one of the toughest holes in the world.

Golf course review of Ballybunion Golf Club

The old course is a classic links. The opening 6 holes are fairly pedestrian, but then you get into the dunes and the fireworks begin! The course is extremely challenging, with lots of run-offs to punish errant iron shots.

The Cashen is probably a better piece of land than thr old, however RTJ Snr hasn't used it to its fullest. There are some fabulous holes - 13, 15 & 17 are particularly good and are perhaps better than the best holes on the old course however holes like 5 and 12 are an absolute design disgrace. Still, the course is well worth playing, esecially with the 2 course special on both courses at the moment.

If the land occupied by both courses were just discovered today you could build the best course in the world. As it is, we've got to settle for 2 very good, but imperfect, ones.

Golf course review of Ballybunion Golf Club

The opening few holes are not spectacular but after that the course is excellent. An absolutely brilliant links course! The sister course, New Cashen, is not to be missed either!
