        Arnold Palmer once stated, " Nowhere on earth, is heaven and hell as close together as in Ireland.  Heaven, because it is the most beautiful place to play golf.   Hell, because the ocean wind blows, the courses are rough, and the sea is only a slice or hook away."

Some of the Course 
        There are two types of golf courses in Ireland, inland or parkland and seaside or links.  Parkland courses are most like the States courses  with trees and bushes, most often found in Ireland's old country estates.  Link courses are built along the seacoast, or into the sea.  They are built on wind-hardened sand, with hardy coastal grasses which produce monstrous difficulties in the rough.   Or, they are constructed high atop coastal cliffs  where the ocean breeze or gale force winds are a factor.

10 meters    =  11 yards                                        The Irish caddy said "Sir, the way your play, it's a sin any day of the week".
50 meters    =  55 yards
100 meters = 110 yards
150 meters = 165 yards
200 meters =  220 yards
250 meters = 275 yards
