Castleknock Golf and Country Club

Due to weather conditions that morning our round was delayed for over an hour.
However amazingly the greens where firm but responsive,the fairways were well kept and the bunkers full of sand which always nice to find.

A great looking course maintained superbly.
Fairly low level of difficulty with pretty straightforward holes., however there are a couple of nice holes with water for the par3's.
An enjoyable course for a relaxing round.

Played on the 21/03/2013 the course was in very good condition considering the weather we have had. The course was playing very long due to high winds. Greens had been heavily sanded but they still rolled true and did not effect the putts in any noticeable way. Over all a very enjoyable game especially since it remained dry for the whole round.

Really enjoyed the challenge of the course . The course is very well designed and has some great features to it including fantastic bunkers that seem to be always in your way . Also the water on the course is never to far away and plays its part on the higher handicapped holes . Long par 3's and 4's also add to this course while trying to avoid well positioned bunkers , trees and water too . Some stunning views of the Dublin Mountains and the Liffey Valley add to the wealth which this course holds and being open to the elements on elevated tees adds mother natures challenges to the course . I found the greens to be in great condition and some difficult lines I found on them , the features around the greens mean that some approach play to the green needs the correct club choice or you can end up in all sorts of trouble.The greens are well kept and are quite quick and that after the washout summer we had.

Am always looking forward to play Castleknock great golf course greens smooth. Will be back again
