and standard scratch to match. The ladies tee is 4,591 yards with a slightly
more benevolent standard scratch of 71.
Allen Park is a Local Authority Golf Development

gentle undulating golf course. All greens are constructed to the highest quality
U.S.G.A. Specifications.
The big hitters can let loose on the 5th "Plaskets
Burn" and the 6th "The Gap" however don't be fooled these two Par 5 are stroke
index 5 and 1 respectively.
This fine complex provided by Antrim Local
Authority is designed to provide a comprehensive golfing complex on the outskirts
of the town. The visitor is, assured of a warm welcome and a testing and enjoyable
days golf at a very reasonable green fee for a course of this calibre, indeed
the Ulster Branch of the GUI selected this course for the staging of the Qualifying
rounds of the Bulmers Jimmy Bruen Shield in 2004. |
