Great Pics - Thx for sharing!!!!
Sunday - 9 pars ...8 bogies and an 8 on 18 for an 82
Monday - 3 pars...3 birdies and an eagle on 18 for an 82
Well I was a machine marching forward on Sunday but couldn't hit a putt. Was not exciting just ho hum get the ball in the hole golf. Yesterday, I was all over the place and sinking putts to keep me in the game. If I could have had a little flying creature action Sunday it would have been solid or if I could have just finished 18. The Eagle definitely made my day as I blew an excellent opportunity on 15 too (made a par).
Sunday 40 - 42
Monday 44 - 38 Did my best Cam Smith impersonation with 9 putts on the back.

Wow. That looks awesome!
First it was my sister last week sending videos on the family WhatsApp of my brother-in-law playing Ballybunion (while they were there on their honeymoon) and now NMC on a grand tour - seems like Ireland golf is just taunting me..... looks amazing!
I played Ballybunion in July in a steady 40mph wind. Drove it over the 18 green with a 19 hybrid; 400 yards. Also played Old Head twice. Day one the last three holes were in dense fog (nice before that). We were following Luke Donald who had a shot at the course record till the fog. Day two was torrential rain from start to finish. We weren’t wasting the $400. It’s cool to see the heli’s come in there.
Bellybunion tomorrow and Waterville day after.
Still have another 7 days in Ireland.
I can’t get enough of this country!

Tendonitis (Golfers Elbow) sucks.
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

That’s the breakfast I remember. Nice parkland style courses near Killarney. Irish open played there. Beautiful parks. Killarney is great. Local flavor
