Brad, Michael & Tim,
Thanks for the kind words.
If I had to pick a favorite hole I would go with 4, The Klondyke. I just love the history of the hole and the fact that there have been golfers playing this exact hole for 120 years. As a ~480 yard par 5 it could easily be dismissed by some, however play the hole into any strength of a wind and it is one tough hole while still offering up a chance at a birdie. Even with being a member, the 2nd shot is one of the most enjoyable to hit and as you walk around the hill there is still an element of surprise to see where you ball has finished. That and the green complex is one of my favorite - just such a variety of approach shots and putts available.
Least Favorite? I think this is where Lahinch's strength really shows. I can tell you straight off what my least favorite hole is at Ballybunion, Royal Portrush, TOC, Carnoustie, but have to struggle to come up with one for Lahinch. At a push, I don't like playing the 7th particularly even though it is one of the most picturesque holes out there. The 2nd shot is quite severe & it does not do offer a huge amount of recovery shots.
