About Tralee Golf Club Instituted October 1, 1896, Tralee Golf Club opened its present Arnold Palmer-designed course for play at Barrow in October, 1984, after moving from its nine-hole course at Mounthawk near Tralee. It was a great feat of achievement for the Club. Since the members (led by John Kelliher, Karl Condon) decided to buy land at Barrow back in 1980, their dream of seeing the Club attain world-wide status has been realized.

The location at Barrow is Tralee Golf Club's fourth permanent course since the club was first established in 1896. Each of the clubs three courses in the town of Tralee was plagued by the high average rainfall. They were almost unplayable during the winter, so it was decided to ask Arnold Palmer to design a course in Barrow in 1980.

The main consideration was that the area provided the sandy, links texture that would allow for golf all year round. The scenery and the rich history surrounding the course were an added bonus.
