A superb course which I always enjoy playing even with the tough conditions yesterday in a south westerly prevailing wind. I enjoyed great company.

Superb course albeit restricted publicity given its proximity to the Old Course. Well worth a game.

A fantastic course with superb holes along the coast. Everyone should try to get to Ballybunion for a wonderful experience.

What a fantastic course!
The 2nd, 6 th, 7th and 8th will challenge any golfer and if you can par these 4 you will be in for a great front 9! On the back 9 the challenges are in the 11th, 15th, 17th and the 18th. If you come through those four at or under par you can claim to be a very good golfer and you will be guaranteed to have an excellent round.
The sea views on this course are equalled by those on the sister course known locally as The Cashen or just simply "The New Course"! The green keepers do a fantastic job on both courses and the greens will test most folders. Stay out of the roughness if you can if you want an enjoyable round with a low score!

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.

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!
