"Expectations were high for Lost Farm, and Coore has delivered with a course that is top shelf."

Darius Oliver files the first review of Lost Farm, the companion course to Tom Doak and Mike Clayton's Barnbougle Dunes, and not surprisingly it sounds like a winner. Thanks to reader Jon for this.

Expectations were high for Lost Farm, and Coore has delivered with a course that is top shelf. It does need a growing season or two before the fescue grasses mature and provide golfers with the sort of firm surfaces ideal for this type of layout, but preview rounds will not disappoint. Golfers who have been putting off a trip to Barnbougle Dunes since it opened in 2004 now have no excuse.
