Lyons Links

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Joe Lyons and I have been a Golf Fanatic all my life. From the age of nine when I first picked up a club to this day, the game of golf has seduced, intrigued, beguiled but most of all frustrated me. The Game of Golf has been extraordinarily good to me and in many ways has been my redemption.

Growing up in Ireland surrounded by some of the most fantastic course on the planet, with relatively easy access for Juniors was and is a privilege that nurtured my love of the game. Indeed the tales of all the great battles between our leading amateurs, down through the generations, at venues such as Lahinch, Rosses Point, Royal Portrush and County Louth lended to the legend of these Great Old Links. These tales relayed through my Dad and his golfing buddies, were all the more real when, every now and then one of our local members took a scalp at a West or South of Ireland Championship.

My Dad was the real inspiration behind my golf and without his encouragement, I would not have had such love and respect for the game. With the passion instilled, I went on to compete and win a number of championships across the UK and Ireland in an amateur career, which include International Honours and is now going into its third decade.

Visiting and competing at best links venues on the planet has been a privilege and has provided me with an in-depth knowledge of the best seaside golf destinations in Ireland, Scotland and England. I should also advise that there are some exceptional parkland destinations too. Having visited these venues and localities over such a lengthy period, I have a vast network of friends and my reputation within the Golf is well founded.

After working as Social Care Worker for twenty years, I developed a Facebook group and website called Irish Golf Noticeboard, which is thriving to this day. I am instantly recognisable and traceable through this network, which offers readers an opportunity to evaluate my standing in Irish Golf.

After twenty years of caring for the more vulnerable in Society, I made a career move to the Golf Industry. I now care for clients and no stone is left unturned to ensure Golfers coming to experience our majestic links are cared for in a manner second to none.
