A nice view of the 4th green/5th tee taken from over Lough Mahon.

Two very memorable back to back holes for visitors to @corkgolfclub

This area formed part of the original course routed by our first Club Professional, Mr David Brown, who hailed from St Andrews. Mr Brown would serve at Cork GC from 1898 until 1926.

Note the West Quay along the 4th fairway which facilitated export of limestone back in the 1800's. This limestone was used as ballast for transatlantic voyages with many Boston buildings featuring Little Island Limestone. Notable Cork Buildings inc. the facades of Cork City Hall and Brown Thomas and the former Cork Savings Bank now occupied by UCC.

A quick flyover of the 5th @corkgolfclub on 23/12/22.

A strong driver of the ball will carry "Shufflers" without great difficulty but needs to be careful of their ball bouncing to the right.

Next up is picking a lay-up spot to your preferred yardage and easiest angle into the pin, or alternatively, you can go for it in 2. Trouble lurks along the shoreline and there is no easy bailout either.

Note the shore clean up, recontouring of "Shufflers," and the scrub removal and cutback to its original lines in early 2020.

"Shufflers" is the area right of the 5th fairway, which in days gone by had longer wispy grass, which led to players and caddies shuffling along to stumble across a wayward drive.

A flyover of the magnificent 4th at Cork Golf Club.

The back tees are tucked far back along the shore with a solid strike required to find the fairway. The better ball striker will tend to the right hand side for the best approach angle (avoiding bunkers left) into the narrow green which rarely yields a straight forward putt.

It's our Index 1 for good reason - take a par and move onto the 5th which continues down along the shore. Note the shore clean up along 4 and 5 which has opened the views and exposed the estuary even more from the player's perspective.

The devilishly short 19th will feature as the 11th

The devilishly short 19th will feature as the 11th this week. While short, trouble lurks everywhere and it was visually intimidating off the tee especially if into a stiff breeze. The green has some subtle breaks and plenty of wicked pin locations for the powers that be.

It seems @mike_clayton_golf has his stamp all over Sandbelt golf and this hole is testament to some of his great design work. It was such a privilege to acquaint Mike, play golf with and discuss architecture while walking a few courses #legend

One of my favourite holes, the 15th. Trouble everywhere and a green that won't give too much away.

Ever present MacKenzie bunkering complex which adjoins the short par 5 14th to the right, which was the only hole redesigned by Dr MacKenzie.

While the topography of @kingston_heath is somewhat benign, the course is just an outstanding routing in what is by modern day standards a small footprint of some 125 acres.

As @doakgolf notes in The Confidential Guide, MacKenzie's bunkering is "what took the course from good to great"

After avoiding some incredible fairway bunkering, more of the famed MacKenzie bunkering awaits approach shots falling to the right on the 6th.

Just an incredible day and privileged to play it so close to the Aus. Open.

What an introduction to golf on the #Melbourne #Sandbelt. Thank you to my host @jjheatface for a great day out and the weather was kind.

@kingston_heath plays host to the #AusOpenGolf for an 8th time this week and I'm looking forward to seeing how the pros approach it after playing the course and then rewalking it.

The course officially opened in 1925, designed by Dan Souter and built by the famous Mick Morcom.

In 1926, Dr Alister MacKenzie would visit and entrusted Mick Morcom to implement his famed bunkering which is still intact. More pics to follow of those.

An absolute gem and a must visit for anyone visiting Melbourne.

Humbled by the warmth and hospitality from @royalmelbournegolfclub

A very special thank you to Director of Golf @bennyj08 and Captain Tony Rule for not only extending a full invitation through the clubhouse and archives but for also for rounds on both courses where I received so much knowledge on Dr. MacKenzie and Alex Russell.

It was most appropriate to present my painting of the 18th West to Captain Rule in front of the Michael Morcom sketch as the man who did so much work across both East and West Courses.

I certainly saved the best course for last on my trip today with the incredible West. Looking forward to returning and meeting so many new friends. Thank you guys!

What an incredible welcome by Capt. Stephen Ager and it was great to meet @kono0802 practicing. Best wishes on your pro debut in a few weeks 🤗🤗🤗

Victoria GC is in superb condition ahead of the #ispshandaaustralianopen

It was a great privilege to learn of the course evolution and see the black and white photo (c. 1930) which @mike_clayton_golf used as a blueprint for his works and contribution. Restoring much of the original Dr Alister MacKenzie influenced bunkering from the famed 1926 Australian visit is of great historic importance.

Two decent course guides and an exhibition in ball striking from the legend @mike_clayton_golf and @lukasmichel

So much fun round playing from the back tees and beyond as well as some great discussion on course architecture.

Thank you to @bennyj08 and @devries_designs_golf for setting this up🤗🤗🤗

What a great honour to be hosted around @metropolitangolfclub by Trustee, Peter Lothian (Past Captain and President).

Magnificent displays and access to the archives with notes of the Good Doctor's (Alister MacKenzie) visit in November 1926 recommending bunker changes to promote more heroic carries while not unduly punishing the average golfer.

What an incredible week at the MacKenzie Gathering 2022 hosted by @titirangigolf and @dougwhite62

Plenty of new friends and great new experiences

Big thanks to our guest @devries_designs_golf for the late night madness and stories. Special mention to @podged for keeping me swinging well after a long week and we did a little damage along the way to bring home a 3rd place medal.

Next up is Melbourne and some of the great Sand Belt Courses
