Keiser Closes In On Ireland's Inch Strand For Upcoming Project

Joe Passov has the backstory and details behind Bandon Dunes developer Mike Keiser's project in Ireland 30 miles east of Killarney.

Arthur Spring is listed as the architect if/when it happens.

He has chosen Ireland’s Arthur Spring to design the course, a name completely unfamiliar to Americans. Yet, he’s designed more than a dozen courses since 1989 and was a strong enough player to have gained his European Seniors Tour card in 1997.

Most importantly to Keiser is that Strong has had routings done on the property for 20 years and has already had at least one approved that precedes the EU (European Union) restrictions about building golf along the coast. Keiser is confident that they are in compliance with all of the relevant EU statutes, but is a very aware that a litigant could step forward, sooner or later, and delay the project further.
