Has anyone seen/played this new Greg Norman design in Ireland? From the pictures on the website (www.doonbeggolfclub.com) it looks terrific.

Shane:

This has been discussed a lot, as recently as last week.  Dig down and you'll find the thread.

Also, several threads on same were part of the pre-registration GCA.  I don't know if you can access.

Glad you pointed that out.  I thought I was having a deja vu
all over again! ::)

Shane,

I was watching TV the other day, and caught the tail end of a program about the course and some interviews with Norman.

The pictures I saw looked attractive.

Were those pictures of Doonbeg or of Greg that looked
attractive? :o

Tyanks guys. I'll check more carefully next time. But is the course any good, or what?
