The jewel in the crown!!
Ballybunion Golf Club is the ?jewel in the crown? of Ireland?s golf courses and is definitely worth a visit. It should be on every golfers bucket list and every time you visit you just can't wait to come back. Every day, every game, every hole and indeed every shot is different in Ballybunion and no two rounds will be similar.Reviewer Rating

Cashen in Superb Condition
The Cashen course is in superb condition after its 3 months enforced closure due to Covid 19. The rough has grown considerably which adds to the challenge but the fairways and greens are in superb condition. The Greenkeeper and his team is due huge credit to have the Cashen Course back in ‘fine fettle’ after such a rough winter.(Round played: Jun 2020 - Score: 94 Handicap: 22.6)

Add it to your bucket list and if you're a golfer play here make sure you before you die......it will ably prepare you for what God has in store fro golfers in Heaven!!!(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 109 Handicap: 22)

Ballyb back to its best
The Old Course in BB is back to its best after being reopened on St Patrick’s day following its 3month+ Winter sojourn. The fairways are immaculate, the greens are wonderful and slick and it’s playing tough. Enjoy if you get the chance to play it........you will be challenged on any given day depending on the elements.(Round played: May 2019 - Score: 106 Handicap: 22.8)

Ballybunion second course a real challenge
The cashen course, Ballybunion second course, is a real treat and a real test of golf. Distance off the tee in this course is not the he key challenge but a few blind holes ensures that positioning on fairways gives you a real chance of a good score. Greens are superb and scenery as you play this course gets better with every hole, culminating with great views on the 16th and 17th and then an interesting 18th back to the clubhouse. Make sure it’s o; your itinerary when you visit the great Kerry links courses.(Round played: Sep 2018 - Score: 92 Handicap: 21.1)

Wonderful Links
Ballybunion was at its most beautiful this morning in lovely sunny conditions. This course is exceptional and it's more of a golfing experience that a simple game of golf. The beauty of ten waves crashing below the 7th tee box and again along the 11th tee box is something that we can all enjoy no matter how many times you play this course. The greens are in great condition albeit surprisingly a bit slow. Te rough gives everyone a challenge visitor and member alike.......Ten best thing is to avoid it.

Ballybunion Jewel
The Cashen Course in Ballybunion is in superb condition despite the adverse weather conditions in recent weeks. The greeens are in superb condition and this course is a fantastic test of golf, often forgotten because it is located alongside The Old Course. The impact of a strong wind on the day that we played ensured that we got to play some holes in birdies and others in bogies, double bogies and often worse. An enjoyable experience on a lovely typical windy Kerry day.(Round played: Jan 2018 - Score: 92 Handicap: 22.7)

Hidden beauty in Kerry
Ballybunion Cashen Course is the second course in this complex but what a course. Fantastic views from tee boxes and greens. Fairways a challenge to find for some of us but when you do getting on in regulation not too bad. Secret is to put away the driver and use a fairway wood or a Rescue .........make sure you add this to your itinerary when you visit the South West of Ireland. You won't regret it.(Round played: Oct 2017 - Score: 100 Handicap: 21.8)

The South West Jewel
This majestic course in the South West should be played by everyone at least once in their lifetime. The weather conditions can have a real impact on the quality of the golf and the level of enjoyment that you will get from this experience. The course is tough with the rough being extremely severe and T makes sense just to take your punishment when you go off the fairways. The greens have recently been re-done for the first time since the course was originally established in 1893. Pure class although still a little slow.(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 101 Handicap: 21.1)

A fantastic day on the Cashen Course in Ballybunion left us with loads of challenging second shots either into the wind or else with the gale force helping you and requiring a club or 2below what we would normally use. Greens in good condition and mats being used for the winter months were often of significant help. .
