Ballyshear Golf Links Course Overview
Ballyshear Golf Links is the 18-hole, par-71 course at Ban Rakat Club in Bang Bo, Samut Prakan, east of Bangkok. Designed by Gil Hanse, the 7,115-yard layout reinterprets the lost Lido through classic template concepts, broad strategic fairways, geometric bunkering and strongly shaped greens. Its setting is inland rather than coastal, so the links-influenced identity comes from architecture, firmness and ground-game options rather than natural linksland.

Ballyshear Golf Links near Bangkok – Green Fees & Tee Times – Location & Getting There
What It Is Like to Play Ballyshear Golf Links
The round feels wider than it plays. Ballyshear presents generous corridors, but central hazards, diagonal bunkers and partly hidden greens continually change the preferred side of the fairway. The template sequence gives the course a deliberate rhythm: visible options are followed by blind or semi-blind approaches, then by large-scale green complexes that reward imagination. The back nine carries several of the clearest Lido references and demands increasingly precise positioning towards the finish.
The Rebuilt Lowland Landscape Behind Ballyshear
Ballyshear occupies the former Kiarti Thanee Country Club site on level ground east of Bangkok. Instead of relying on natural coastal terrain, the design team created large landforms, angular bunkers and open playing corridors across a difficult lowland site with a high water table. This manufactured setting is central to the course’s identity: classic template architecture and ground-game possibilities were recreated within an inland environment that originally offered little natural elevation or visual separation.
Ballyshear Course Design and Strategy
Ballyshear’s strategy comes from reinterpreting the lost Lido and classic concepts including Channel, Alps, Punch Bowl, Biarritz and Redan holes. Width is not automatically forgiving: the safest side of a fairway may leave a longer or partly obstructed approach, while a bolder route can create a clearer entrance into the green. Central hazards, diagonal carries and geometric bunkering divide the available space into distinct choices. Tee position, ground firmness and pin placement can therefore change the most effective route without changing the underlying hole.
How to Play Ballyshear Golf Links
Play for Angles
Use the fairway width to reach the side that opens the green rather than automatically aiming at the centre.
Expect Partial Blindness
Commit to clear lines over raised ground and use conservative targets whenever the landing area or flag is obscured.
Faites confiance à votre caddie
Local guidance is valuable for bunker lines, release options and reading Ballyshear’s strongly shaped green complexes.
Defining Holes at Ballyshear Golf Links
4th – Channel, par 5: The alternative-fairway concept asks golfers to choose between safer positioning and a more ambitious line that improves the route towards the green.
10th – Alps, par 4: The second shot is partly hidden by central dunes, while a deep frontal bunker and stepped green punish uncertain distance control.
16th – Redan, par 3: The diagonal green, rearward slope and outer mound favour a correctly shaped entry, with wind and pin position changing the target.
18th – Home, par 4: A central hazard divides the fairway into routes of different risk. The bolder side earns a clearer angle into the final green.
