BALLYBUNION GOLF CLUB (Old Course): Arguably Ireland’s most admired and distinguished links course. The Old Course, well over a century old, is as pure a links course as there is in the world. The course was designed using the existing links land and massive dunes without the need for artificially created challenges and hazards. The Old Course constantly ranks as one of the world's top ten courses. In the opinion of the legendary Tom Watson, it is 'the best in the world'.
