One of my loops at Lahinch is starting at 3 (my house has a little lane way that joins the course behind the 2nd green) play until the Dell (5th) then hop down the last 4.
Pasa's 1,2,3 is quite strong, and we all liked playing 10, 11, 12, 17 (ish), and 18.
Chip - I cannot believe you chose 2,3,4 at RCD. 3,4,5 are clearly FAR superior holes.
