I am planning my next international golf trip...a year or two down the road. My question to you all is, where should I go?
Internationally, I've been to Scotland and Ireland/N. Ireland.
In Scotland, I played Muirfield, The Old Course, Renaissance, Old Musselburgh, Jubilee, Crail Balcomie, North Berwick, and Askernish.
In Ireland/N. Ireland, I played Royal County Down, Royal Portrush, Ardglass, and County Louth (Baltray).
Both trips were amazing...and I am keen on getting back overseas.
Off the top of my head, I want to see some heathland courses in England with Sunningdale (old) being the first on my list. But I also want to see some Australian sand belt courses, with Royal Melbourne being the biggest draw for me. And the wrinkle in my planning is that I was so bowled over by Royal County Down, I'm wondering if I need to get back to Ireland and see Lahinch...and maybe RCD again.
Given that I live in Atlanta, GA and knowing what I've already seen overseas, where would you suggest I make my next international golf trip to? And for interesting discussion, why?
