Ireland’s Hidden Gem Golf Course

Oh, what is up y'all? Hope y'all having a wonderful day. We are here at County Sligo. This place looks pure. Very excited for this round of golf. We're just going to jump straight into it. Number one, par four. That's going to be left. All right, I saw it bouncing up there, but it's going to be left. All right, I've got 107 here up the hill, sand wedge in hand. Kind of like it. That could be pretty good right there. I really thought that was on a good number. Maybe caught a little bit of a flyer, but not too bad here. Putting back down the hill. Oh, not too bad. Tap that in for our four. All right, even through one. All right, that's going to be left of the green. This is borderline drivable par four, but we're going to be just a little left there. All right, like I said, a little left of the green and I need to make sure I get it over this bunker just short. Kind of like it. Kind of like it a lot. That could be real close. So my ball almost landed in the hole right there, but it did trundle a bit past the hole. But pretty good look here down the hill. See if we can't get our first bird here at Sligo. That's like half a rotation. That actually like rocked back. That is hanging over the lip. That is unfortunate. All right, even through two and what a view right here. Number three, par five down the hill. Would love to get our first birdie here at Sligo. We're just going to hit high, let it fly. That is fading. Down the right, saw it bounce. That is probably going to be in the rough though. It's a long ways home. In the thicker rough here, so just going to have to lay up down there. All right, it's down there. All right, I've got 155 here and the flag is kind of left center of this bunker in front of us. So see if we can't get it up there. Give ourselves a birdie look. I've got a nine iron in hand. Fade. I think that was on a good number. That's going to be a little left. I'm not sure how far the green goes over there. All right, with this rain today, I'm not going to be able to film every shot because I got to keep the camera as dry as possible. So I made par back on the third two putt. It was a lengthy putt, but good two putt on number four, 155 part three. I'm gonna go with a little nine iron. That is right at it. Oh, bummer. A little long. All right, we got some work to do. All right, so I ended up making par back on number four. The par three was a very good two putt. I've got nine iron here, 175 flag. This is a par five, number five. See if we can't knock something up there. Give ourselves an eagle look. That is right at the flag and that I think is a shot right there. Let's go. Let's go. That is what we have here for eagle. That is the old double pin slammer. Let's go. Two under. All right, we're on a number six here. Good drive. Found the fairway. Hole was playing about 400 yards. Got 110 left. Sand wedge. Let's knock it close. All right, a little long. All right, we landed just past pin high here. Did take a big hop on us. We got about maybe 30 feet, a little less. Let's just put a good roll on this. Thank you. In with the four. Made par on seven back there. It was a good par four. Tough par four. We've got the number eight here. 433. Bents to the right. We're gonna tee it high. Let it fly. I think that's gonna be about perfect. Yeah, we're gonna give that the old thumbs up right there. Love to see it. All right, that was our best drive of the day right there because this hole is 433 and I've got 108 left to a slightly backed pin. I'm just gonna hit a smooth little sand wedge here or just pull it and hit it too hard. Okay, back edge of the green. All right, back edge of the green here. I've got probably 30 feet breaking to our right. Oh, I need a little more pace on that. That's the unfortunate three putt right there. That's our first bogey of the day. Moves us back to one under. How about this view up here on the ninth tee? Are you kidding me? This is a phenomenal looking par three. All right, like I said, number nine here. Got 161. Wind's kind of into herding, so I'm gonna go with a smooth little eight iron. Oh, that was not smooth. Okay, that is gonna be interesting. You just can't hit your tee shot on nine where I hit it right there. Made bogey. Even par on the number 10 par four and this view here at Sligo. Absolutely unbelievable. I want to thank them so much for hosting us here. We're out here with the boys. We got Michael, Angus, Nick that were over on this whole trip with me and we've been having a great time finishing up our trip here at Sligo. And we've got number 10 here, par four. I'm gonna just tee it high, let it fly. That is right down central. You absolutely love to see it. All right, really good drive right there. I've got 86 yards left. Got a little sand wedge. We're not gonna embrace those views just yet. Let's get this up and down, make bird, then we can. All right, maybe a little short. Caught that a little heavy, but it is up there putting. We'll have to see. So this was definitely well short. Like I said, hit it pretty heavy. And I've got a lengthy one here just off the green on the front. Let's just put a good roll on it. Go. Hmm. Well, last few rolls around the green have not been great. We'll get things sorted. That was kind of mean. I thought that was in the heart. Oh, that's three bogeys in a row from two good drives, one not good tee shot, one over. All right, we're on to number 12 here, par five. How about that view? Absolutely incredible. I mean, this day has turned around for us. Started out with some rain, but this day is absolutely beautiful. Made par back on 11, so I remain at one over. 520 yard par five. There's a bunker. I'm not sure if you can see it on the distance. We just want to be just right of it. All right, made it down the right. I think it's going to be okay. All right. You don't want to go too much further right than that, but we're just fine. I've got 238 playing downhill to 231. Got three iron. Let's see if we can't get a little birdie run going. That is right at it. All right. It's up there. Just short, but it was right at it. I wanted to show y'all. There is a lighthouse way off there in the distance, just out in the middle of the water. That is awesome. And about probably 45 feet here. There we go. Back making some birds. Pin slammer here on 12. All right. Made par back there on the downhill par three. Remain at even par. This is a really good par four. We're playing the very back box. It's about 460 into the breeze, and it's kind of a tight area up there. I think that's going to play very nice. Like I said, very good drive right there. Got 145, but playing up about three. I'm going to go with a little chippy nine iron here. Come on wind, push it back left. All right. Right side of the green. Always make sure to fill in your divots just like that. Had the unfortunate three putt on that last hole, so I moved to one over par. This is an awesome par four here. It's called through the gap. We're going with three iron because I don't really think his driver tightens up up there. All right. Little fairway finder there. Sun's even coming out. All right. All we were looking for there was a little fairway finder. I've got 178 playing uphill a few, and that pin is all the way back on the screen it looks like. A little into the breeze, so we're going to go with seven iron. All right. We are putting another lengthy putt. Let's put a good roll on it. All righty. Parred the last hole. This is number 17, one over par, 422. Number two handicap hole, so this is a tough one. Right back into the breeze. Get high, let it fly. Fading kind of right center. All right. Should be pretty good there. So the fairway runs out. I'm not sure if it was driver from there, but we are just fine. I've got 165 playing uphill to 175. I'm going to go with an eight iron. Oh my goodness. I needed to like really hit that. All right. Just short left. Right. I mean, all right. A little short here, but you know, got some green to work with. Oh, with that backdrop to make that chip. All right. We're in with four. All righty. Final hole here on this incredible trip to Ireland. Absolutely love my time with the boys traveling around in the van and the roads here. You get into the countryside. Let's just say I'm glad we still have both of our mirrors on the van. It gets a little dicey, but it's been an adventure. Final hole. Number 18, par four up the hill. Going with three iron. Thank you. All righty. We are up there. All righty. Final full swing here in Ireland. Wow. What a view. Just a puff of breeze. Sun is out and doesn't get much better than this. Let's see if we can't end with the birdie. No. Stay. Stay. All right. Maybe like front right corner of the green. All right. Lengthy putt here. About 45 feet. That's how you want to end it right there. As for me, Sligo, Ireland, the boys. See you when we see you. Peace.
