  • Todays hidden gem is Cruit Island Golf Club. Set on the edge of the wild and rugged Atlantic ocean, next stop America, you will savour unrestricted panoramic views that will take your breath away. A true natural 9 hole links course, golf at its best, par 68, where every shot must be methodically thought out.With a par 3 that measures only 137m, what club will it be today? A short flick of a wedge? A fully struck wood? You decide!!

    @platobach8309 8 месяцев назад +21

    One of the things that makes the Hidden Gems so enjoyable to watch is the effort you put into the B-roll shots. The clips of you driving along the route to the golf course, showing the scenery of the drive, and the overhead shots of the course, really make us feel like we are accompanying you and the Golf Mates on the journey. Those finishing touches elevate the quality of your channel and are part of the reason so many of us look forward to your videos.

    • @GolfMates

    Big thanks to Shane for the invite so that us golfmates could witness this beautiful course. Well done Liam with the cameras to show it off to the full extent of its beauty. Brilliant video boys !!

  • @Paul-kj1wr
    @Paul-kj1wr 8 месяцев назад +4

    Best 9 hole course in the World, truly is a hidden gem. Only 1 road in and out, unless you have a boat. My ould fella was a member, played it many times. Definitely the best Par 3 anywhere for scenery. Great video chaps, only thing being it’s pronounced Critch.

  • @Brandon-kp3ir
    @Brandon-kp3ir 8 месяцев назад +7

    The production value on these videos are just insane. Amazing entertainment and what good memories to have with your friends to look back onto.

  • @peterellis5666
    @peterellis5666 8 месяцев назад +5

    A fantastic series, gentlemen. Real golf played, and many drinks quaffed. Ireland should make you all honorary Irish men because of the plugging of golf in Ireland. By the way, excellent work by the cameraman, he has really brought out the best of the whole occasion 🏆

  • @ericchambers9914
    @ericchambers9914 8 месяцев назад +9

    These courses are stunning and your camera/drone work is amazing. Shane is doing a great job since all these hills and valleys make it challenge to see where shots end up. Goodness, Liam and team, simply wonderful footage and entertainment!

  • @TBarrettCT

    I just discovered this channel a few days ago and I love it.
    Very entertaining and really interesting and. amazing views of some beautiful golf courses.
    I find myself laughing a lot to the humor Liam and his friends bring to the experience!!
    Thank you for this! :)

  • @Martin-pv9lj

    @jonkos1975 8 месяцев назад +3

    I'm from Galway in the west of Ireland. After watching this I will definitely be making a trip to Cruit next year. Carne Golf Links in Mayo is another hidden gem of a course if you ever get a chance to play it.

  • @NK-pv8gq
    @NK-pv8gq 8 месяцев назад +5

    Pronounced 'critch'. I played there a few years back and didn't shut up about it for ages! Absolutely beautiful, and a good pint of Guinness in the clubhouse too. The course destroyed me, but I was delighted to par the 6th: pretty daunting for a duffer like me!

  • @JonathanBudd-oc6iv
    @JonathanBudd-oc6iv 8 месяцев назад +2

    @PatrickMclaughlinRock 8 месяцев назад +4

    Brilliant lads, great work showing off Donegal links in this hidden gem series, Cruit is a great wee track, need to pop on the golfing brain when playing there 👍
    Something drastic must happen in Portsalon if you're not leading Liam 🤣

  • @DennisLove-qs3uj
    @DennisLove-qs3uj 8 месяцев назад +5

    Another great video gents, well done all. I know all that travelling would most likely have been a bit too much for OMP but it would have been lovely to see him in Ireland with the gang golfing and supping some creamy pints!!!

  • @billhooks69
    @billhooks69 8 месяцев назад +2

    I thought the 12th at Hopeman was beautiful but that little par-3 on this video is an absolutely stunning golf hole. Well done guys, in some very difficult conditions. I can see how you would love this course whatever the conditions.

  • @chirperg6210

    Another classic - the handicaps in that wind are tough. Liam consistent (with the luck 🤭).
    I hope other videos were filmed on this day for viewing on a later date, I would love further banter and content.
    Well done all

I look forward each week for your videos. Several of the holes looked very much like the golf courses I played in Williamsburg Virginia last week. Take care everyone.

  • @petermaher5156
    @petermaher5156 8 месяцев назад +2

    Another outstanding Hidden Gem Liam, absolutely stunning. Golf might not have been top class but the wind was a big challenge. I don't think you need to worry about doing Ireland proud, these videos are superb and show Ireland and Irish golf courses in their full glory. Well done to all and can't wait for the next one.🏌‍♀

    I grew up in Melbourne playing the famous sand belt courses, my favourite was Metropolitan closely followed by Kingston Heath and Royal Melbourne West. In 1987 I played in the UK at some of the open courses…Royal Birkdale became my favourite course .
    In 2005 4 of us played more Open courses then we went to Ireland playing some of the famous courses. We played Waterville, that is now my favourite course in the world…I’ve also played Pebble Beach in 1995.
    Have you played Waterville?
