Dinard golf course France
Designed by Tom Dunn in 1887, this course is the second oldest in France after the Pau Golf Club (1856). Laid out alongside France’s Emerald Coast, players enjoy sea views from all 18 holes, each of which has its own individual name (the dog’s paw, the complete disaster, etc.) This course is neither long nor tiring, so it may deceive the unwary into thinking that it is easy, but the final score tells the real story. This course is more tricky than difficult, with its sandy soil, undulating fairways, small, high, very fast greens and many bunkers; it also has very few trees but plenty of broom and gorse bushes.

My gear on golfplanet.net
Golf cannot exist apart from the nuts and bolts that enable you to play—which is why good gear is so important to any golfer. A golfer is not much of anything on the course apart from his/her favorite driver or putter, so we added a new section to the free profiles on golfplanet.net, a MyGear section. This new section on Golfplanet.net has provided a way for any golfer to display their favorite clubs and accessories; you can upload pictures, and include descriptions of each item.
