Jack,

If you could point us in the direction of those lovely little Irish courses that retain their charm and challenge, yet avoid the excessive green fees currently prevalent amongst those good but not top-class courses that happen to be in the neighbourhood of a great or prominent course we should all benefit enormously.

mark - i recently played a few courses in donegal (i posted on the trip - pictures still to follow): narin&portnoo; cruit island (9hole); rosapanna (2 courses) and portsalon.the cumulative green fee for 4.5 rounds of excellent links golf was Euro 190. a trip to that part of the world is highly recommended, both on golf and value grounds.

I'm not an expert on architecture, so my opinoin may differ from the group's, but here's a few that I think are worthwhile. Unfortunately, places like the Grange are no longer a cheap greenfee.

The Castle, Rathfarnham, Dublin
Baltinglas, Baltinglas, Co Wicklow.
Arklow Golf Links, Arklow, Co Wicklow.
Ardee Golf Club, Co Louth
Coollattin Golf Club, Co Wicklow
Courtown GC, Co Wicklow
Delgany GC, Co Wicklow
The Hermitage, Co Dublin
The Curragh, Co Kildare
The Heath, Co Laois
Eskerhills, Co Offally
Mullingar GC, Co Westmeath
Tramore GC, Co Waterford
Cork GC, Co Cork
Connemara, Co Galway
Carne, Co Mayo
Enniscrone, Co Sligo
Strandhill, Co Sligo
Donegal, Co Donegal



plus all the ones Philip mentioned. Some of those listed I haven't played in a long time. I would be happy to play any of them.
