The halfway house at Royal Belfast... where the 9th and 12th greens converge #golf #northernireland #oldestgolfclubinireland

The 10th hole at Royal Belfast, where everything most definitely slopes down to the sea!! A tee shot hit towards the right edge of the fairway will feed its way down into the middle leaving only a wedge to a very small green (fingers crossed!) #golf #parkland #northernireland

When playing at Royal Belfast you will notice 3 different coloured flags on the greens... Red is for frontal pin position, yellow is middle and blue will require a shot to the rear segment of the greens. #golfflags #pinpositions #nigolf

Last Saturday was Captain's Day at Royal Belfast and the green staff worked late into the evening the night before and were up early again to make sure the course was looking spectacular! #8thgreen #greenkeeping #captainsday #golf #oldestgolfclubinireland

Early morning with the tide out... #royalbelfast #royalroadtrip #bucketlist #harrycolt #golf #belfastlough #northernireland

The par 5, 5th hole. A good drive to the right portion of the fairway is required to reach the green in 2. The longest hole on the course and one of 3 holes which crosses the meandering driveway through the course. #golf #northernireland #ireland

Early morning shadows over the top end of the course exposing very old drainage lines. #greenkeeping #drainage #golf

The 16th hole. A well guided drive down the fairway will leave a risk reward second shot to a narrow green. There's a good birdie chance at this par 5 hole. #birdie #par5 #golf #northernireland #oldestgolfclubinireland

Red sky in the morning at the greenkeepers maintenance sheds... #shepherdswarning #weather #golfingweather
