Dan, Boy do our tastes differ!I guess thats the beauty of this game-when I think of Tralee the holes 8,9, and 11 are not the best of holes but 2,3,4,5,and6 are a great stretch. In addition to the spectacular dunes on the back 9. 16 is often considered one of the great holes in Eire. Dunes are probably only surpassed by those at Carne-another personal favorite. I visit Eire biennially and have taken Waterville out of my rota just because there are so many better for much less in my opinion.
