Are you saying it is not good?
It looked well yesterday in fairness considering the rain we have had!! It wouldn't be my first choice by any means but it's grand every now and then. Cheap and cheerful!!0 -

It's not that cheap really is it? I mean you could play Lee Valley/Blarney for cheaper than the Mahon rate.
I like the course though, it prob has 1 too many Par 3's (especially seeing as there is 4 in a 6 hole stretch), but then I suppose that is the fun of the course!0 -

Not saying its not good - but your photography skills seem very good ! Its a grand course - every now and then as you say. Like Ssbob I wouldn't call it cheap either though. Did you get the full round in after teeing off at 3pm ?0 -

I understand some of you are visiting this course over the weekend.
I'm originally a Tullamore man so I can guarantee you a treat.
Esker Hills 4th Hole, short but deadly Par 4
I once bet 3 visitors on the tee box that not one of them would do better than a 6 without even knowing their handicaps.
They all took me up for a tenner & I had 30 quid walking onto the next tee.0 -

Your front tee box is adjacent to that small lake bottom right, you can make out in the photo.
The hole flows from right to left along the bottom of the photo.
See where the cart path snakes in an s halfway along the fairway, that's your landing zone.
This is a u-shaped valley where they cut out the esker, it's not wide so I used hit a 3-wood if playing off the front sticks, always favour the left.
If you manage that you'll be left with this view below.
Probably something like a 7 or 8-iron but DON'T be short.
You're lucky the greens won't be running full speed this time of year cause it can almost be a lottery in summertime, you can sense the slope even from the photo.
I've seen guys slide 8 foot birdie putts just past & end up near that front bunker.
Best of luck.;)
