Ireland Golf Vacations - top tips for
your dream Ireland Golf Vacation
by: Gary Hill
Live your golfing dreams on an Ireland golf vacation.
The K Club, Ballybunion, Lahinch, Doonbeg, Druids Glen; the names
of the courses may not trip off the tongue quite as easily as those
of their Scottish cousins but the quality is just as high. An Ireland
golf vacation will introduce you to some of the grandest, most charming,
most testing and most mystical golf courses in the world. You'll
return home with your putter coated in magic and with memories to fill
after dinner tales for decades to come.
An Ireland golf vacation is special – unique even – don't
miss the chance to come.
There is no finer place to play golf in the whole world than in Ireland.
You might yearn to feel the Atlantic breeze tugging at your sweater
as you wend your way between the high sand dunes on a coastal links.
Or you may prefer the lush and rich emerald green of an inland pasture
studded with silver bunkers and flower banks. All of this and more is
here for you if you care to venture on an Ireland golf vacation.
Ireland has always created great golfers and recent Ryder Cup matches
have turned on the skills (and, perhaps, the legendary luck) of the
Irish. The next Ryder Cup will be played in Ireland and worldwide interest
in visiting this most welcoming of islands has never been greater. The
Ryder cup at the K club near Dublin promises to be the best organised
and most thrilling event on the golfing calendar.
For many visitors to Ireland or Scotland the chance to play on an ancient
seaside links course is a large part of the attraction. But links golf
does provide a unique experience and will test both your stamina and
your golf game in a way entirely unlike anything you might have previously
experienced. The wind has the remarkable knack of always blowing in
your face – no matter what direction you're facing.
Links courses rarely allow electronic golf buggies or golf carts. Walking
is the rule. This is partly to protect the courses and partly because
the terrain would make it impossible to drive a buggy safely. Some of
the larger more prestigious courses may have caddies available and most
will allow you to pull a simple club carrying golf cart or trolley.
One of the joys of an Ireland golf vacation is that even the grandest
of the courses and clubs will welcome visitors. Book ahead to ensure
a tee time and visit the website of the club ahead of your visit. Get
a feel for local rules about dress and etiquette. Pick a lucky shamrock,
warm yourself with a drop of local whiskey and swing away for the game
of your life.
The world is full of golf courses but there is no country can boast
as many shining jewels as Ireland. An Ireland golf vacation can make
your golfing dream a reality. Grab you clubs and bag – lets go
today.
