Oh those greens !

MONTGOMERY COURSE
We were led to believe that the Monty course was considerably harder than the O'Mera. It played tough on / around the greens !! VERY TOUGH. The layout is pretty open, and errant drives are not punished as bad as the other courses we played in Dublin (st Annes / Portmarnock Golf and Links), but the greens are VERY difficult, id your short game and putting is below standard, you will be punished, lots and lots of run off's, and most greens were saucer configuration, and pins around the edges (and most were!), were a real test of both line and pace !
Bunkers were deep but properly sanded and fair.
3rd is a great par 3 as is 17th. 11th ( index 2) is a really great hole
Golf staff were generally very good.

Large field with bunkers

Very unimaginative golf course. Very few trees or water hazard, basically a large field with a large amount of pits filled sand.
