What type of grass is this?

Can anyone tell me what type of grass this is? I think of it as Irish or Scottish grass but I don't really know.

The grass grows long in lumps it lays on it's side and looks like rolling mounds it almost gives a smooth texture to it, would be a nightmare to lose a golf ball in it...etc.

I have been all over Google images and can't figure it out anyone pleeeease!!!!

Thanks

Update:

Thanks everyone for trying. The trouble was it's been too long since I saw it. I didn't have a sample, and was unable after 2 hours to find a picture of it on the net. Luckily I did finally find it I think. I am posting a link to the pic for anyone who is interested. Ofcourse once you see the pic if you know of a better breed please let me know. Thanks again!!!

    rmbrruffian has correctly suggested a photograph. Could you at least describe this grass in more

    detail, giving size, shape of blades, where you found it, etcetera, so that Posters may assist you.

    Failing this, take a sample to a plant nursery or your local extension office for identification. If it was on a golf course, the groundskeeper will be able to help you. Another source would be a reference

    library, or to do a websearch--the word "clump" may be useful.

    A picture would go a long way in helping to id the grass.
