Tashyboy
Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
Just got back from a fantastic five days in Ireland. Drove 850 miles whilst there but will talk about that on me Ireland thread.
The two courses that were recommended on this forum were just outstanding. Ave thought about it for a fair bit which course i preferred and theres nowt between them for me. Both courses have some fantastic memorable holes. Three of which are rated in the top 100 holes in Ireland.
The wind and rain made them both true links conditions.
Now having played several links courses, my butt was firmly on the fence of not to sure, but now Tashyboy is well and truly converted. Having played Goswick in May, all four of us that played were a bit underwhelmed. These two blow Goswick out of the water.
Now having said that ( and it is only my opinion) i am also of the opinion that these two courses are not rated as highly as they should be (especially Carne) solely because of there location. If these courses were nearer to cities or more easily accessible they would be rated higher.
Now one thing that puzzled me was that when the four of us played Northumberland in May, we played on a coastal deal which was arranged between, Goswick, Bamburg and Foxton Hall, again through the advice on here. Why Carne, Enniscrone and Sligo have not got there heads together and sorted out a similar deal i do not know. Especially seeing as they do a comp (July 2017) for the three courses for the measly price of 160 euro.
Stunning country and some stunning golf. For the record i had me ass kicked twice by both courses.
