What makes playing a golf course a great experience? Kevin Markham travelled 6,800 miles in a 20-year-old camper van, walked 2,100 miles, lost countless balls, and wore out three pairs of golf shoes to find out. He played and rated every 18-hole course - all 350 of them. The result is the most comprehensive, best-researched guide to Irish golfs, from expensive, well-known courses to affordable little gems. Kevin assesses each course in a detailed review and from a novel perspective, rating the golfing experience using the same criteria for all courses. Courses are ranked out of 100, across 8 criteria, such as design, appeal and value for money. This concise, detailed book is for golfing tourists looking for great value courses; for golfing societies that want to go beyond their local area; and for Irish golfers searching for excellent but unsung courses in Ireland. Written from an amateur's perspective, reviews focus on the energy and excitement of playing each course to give a true representation of the golf experience, and provides all the information necessary to book your round.

Maybe the game of golf wasnt invented in Ireland but to most visitors it seems that way. After all, there are more golf courses per square mile in Ireland than in any part of the world. A golfing visit to Ireland will be the trip of a lifetime for many reasons. First, links courses sparkle like an emerald necklace around the coastline of Ireland. It is subjective to pick the best from so many great courses but here are a few: Royal Portrush, Portstewart. Royal County Down, Baltray, Portmarnock, The European Club, Old Head, Waterville, Ballybunion, Tralee, Lahinch, Doonbeg, Connemara, Carne, Enniscrone, Murvagh, Ballyliffin and Rosapenna. Second, the past two decades have brought world class resorts with the finest facilities and championship level courses, including The K Club, Lough Erne, Druids Glen, Mount Wolsely, Killeen Castle, Glasson, Galgorm Castle, Slieve Russell, The Heritage, Powerscourt, Adare, Fota Island, Dromoland Castle and many more. Third, visitors can enjoy over 400 private golf clubs scattered throughout Ireland where greens fees offer excellent value and local members make you feel at home. Not least, the 19th hole is a great opportunity to meet local golfers. An old saying puts it like this: There are no strangers in Ireland, only friends you havent met before. The successes of Irish golfers on the international circuit has also put the spotlight on the great golf found throughout the Island. Padraig Harrington, Graeme McDowell, Rory McIlroy, Darren Clarke, Paul McGinley, Shane Lowrey and others have been not just successful competitors but wonderful ambassadors for Irish fun and hospitality. I hope you and your friends will come to experience golf in Ireland for yourselves. I can assure you a warm welcome and some wonderful memories. Joe Byrne Executive Vice-President Tourism Ireland

Golf on the Links of Ireland features over 30 golf courses found along the spectacular coastline of Ireland. The author is a lucky man: he's been blessed with a wonderful wife, five children, and a great son-in-law . and has been fortunate enough to play on over 300 courses in the British Isles and Ireland. With a passion for golf on links courses and with maternal roots lodged in Ireland, he's always dreamed of letting his sons see the unique and disarming beauty of this enchanting island. So, in the summers of 2004 and 2005, two of his sons accompanied him on such a pilgrimage. They wanted to discover the soul of Ireland, to smell the crispness of an Irish morning on a seaside links, to hit that ever-intriguing blind shot over a sand dune. Dave, Mike and their dad played matches on 30 courses - some against each other and some against Irish golf club members. The author can honestly say that, although he's played on all but one of the British Open courses in Scotland and England, his most treasured memories are those matches against local club members. John Low, in a book he wrote in 1903, Concerning Golf, described the merits of match play: "Golf is, from the nature of the game, a friendly affair . eighteen little games, eighteen new starts, eighteen opportunities . and each teeing ground may be a trysting place for fresh avowals of friendship." The author comments: "To taste the salt in the breeze, blowing in off the Irish Sea, always invigorates me. We played The European Club, Doonbeg, Old Head, Waterville, Portstewart, Ballyliffin, and Enniscrone, all respectable tests of golf. We delighted in the artfully crafted greens of the Alister MacKenzie gem at Lahinch and we took a tripback in time in visiting the remote links of Rosapenna - only to find a modern links masterpiece sculpted by Pat Ruddy. Some of our most treasured moments came at the wee nine-holers at Cruit Island, Connemara Isles, Bushfoot, and Spanish Bay. "In the these pages you might find a few tips on raising teenagers, which, as those of you who are parents know, is always an interesting challenge. Read about how Dave and Mike dealt with playing junior golf and eventually high school golf. I have also chronicled a little bit about the relationship with my own father, one that hasn't been as ideal as it could have been. "Many of the courses we played are unknown to the average person. And, that's good, because generally they're not crowded and a three-hour round is the norm, not the exception. M sons learned the essence of Irish golf: simple elegance and stark beauty and amazing hospitality. Well-kept secrets, many of these hidden gems showed us breathtaking scenery. And while most of these courses will never host a British Open, they offer good golf, a round under three and a half hours, and a chance to play with the Irish. So, sit down in your easy chair, open these pages, and join us on the shores of Ireland as we walk down the fairways, over the burns, and around the dunes. Feel the excitement as we battle in our matches. Revel in our birdies, cringe at our triple bogeys. Applaud our victories, mourn our losses, share our laughter. I hope that someday you and yours can take such a trip. Indeed I am a lucky man." For golfers dreaming of a trip to this fascinating land, this book is a must. The following are some excerpts from the book. Chapter 1 - "A family photograph taken in 1918 shows mymother (at the tender age of two months), her mother (born to Irish parents in Pennsylvania), her mother (also born to Irish parents in Pennsylvania), and her mother, Catherine (Kitty) Reed, who was born in Dublin in 1827. The name Reed is not Irish; so perhaps she had an English father. Who knows? But I am lucky to still have this photo of four generations of women, tracing back our roots to the potato famine in Ireland. Kitty would have been 17 when the famine started and she may have left Ireland in a coffin ship bound for America or Canada, eventually winding
