Course Description:

Mount Ober Golf Club is a mature 18-hole parkland course, founded in 1985 with a golf academy on site. It is a pleasant undulating course relatively short by today's standards at 5,448 yards with a Par of 67 and a standard scratch of 66 off the men's tees and 5,057 yards par 70 with a standard scratch of 71 from the ladies tees. The course protects itself by putting the emphasis on shot making and provides a fine test of golf for beginners and experienced golfers alike. A fact that can be born out by the course records with both the amateur and professional course records being 67 Par for the course. Mount Ober is well worth a visit and the visitor is assured of a warm Ulster welcome where full catering facilities are provided.
