Only blowing 25 to 30 there.  I'll get one the next time it's regularly gusting over 50 mph.

Mr. Muldoon, if you remembered your course correctly, you would realise that that bunker is pin-high on the right of the green with a strong wind behind and right to left  ;)

I played that shot terribly - What was called for was a delicate splash out to where my golf bag was placed to let the ball run down to the pin. (5th hole at Baltray)

I love that hole posted in Connemara - the long one shot 13th - pretty terrifying.

I've never played in conditions like I played this day. steady 40-50, gusting to much more.

(and this hole is well sheltered)
