There are a handful of courses that I would like another look at because I didn't realize how privileged I was at the time.  However, the one which stands out the most is Crystal Downs.  Pulborough & Sunny Old are close seconds.  Walton Heath & the Berkshire are close thirds.

Portmarnock.  Played it once, in 1997.  Pre-GCA awareness days for me.  Remember most of the holes, and would love to go there again, to see how it looks and plays.

Ballybunion has a few mentions on this thread and I'd add my name to the list.  I played it 20 years ago when I had little understanding of gca.  Sadly I remember little of the course.

Carnoustie would be similar.  Again I played it almost 20 years ago, although I do remember more of it than I do Ballybunion and I've walked it since.  Since reading Rich Goodale's book on it I'd like to play there again.
2014 to date: not actually played anywhere yet!
Still to come: Hollins Hall; Ripon City; Shipley; Perranporth; St Enodoc

Sean,

I play in a Society at The Berkshire every June - fancy joining us next year?
In July I will be riding two stages of this year's Tour de France route for charity, including Mont Ventoux for the William Wates Memorial Trust (https://rideleloop.org/the-charity/) which supports underprivileged young people.
