Lahinch

Old Tom Morris · Alister MacKenzie

Goats on the greens. The Klondyke. The Dell. MacKenzie called it the finest on earth.

Old Tom laid out Lahinch in 1894. MacKenzie came in 1927 and said the bones were already right. The goats still graze. The 4th (Klondyke) is a blind drive over a hill. The 5th (Dell) is a green in a punchbowl you cannot see. Atlantic Green is why people fly to Shannon. The Gap is the hole aimed at the sea. Two Up is just a walk, which is the whole game.
