Craigavad golf

All things golf

Craigavad is from the Irish phrase Craig an Bháda, meaning 'rock of the boat' and refers to an area of North Down on the southside of Belfast Lough.

Craigavad golf explores a broad range of golf related matters and occasionally other sports.

My other site Craigavad miscellany explores the natural world, science, mathematics and occasionally ventures into other areas of general interest.
