On Saturday, I made my way out to Canyon Lake (just east of Lake Elsinore) to check out Canyon Lake Country Club. I heard recently that this once private residential club was now open to the public on certain days and times. I gave them a call to gather more information and they let me... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Red Hill Country Club
On Thursday, I had a chance to play the historic Red Hill Country Club in Rancho Cucamonga. I signed up for an SCGA member outing and the rate of $60 was definitely reasonable, since most of those outings are rather expensive to play these private clubs. I was booked into the last group of the... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Cresta Verde Golf Course
On Tuesday, I played a quick afternoon round out here. Was looking for something cheap and relatively convenient, so Cresta Verde fit the bill with a $10 GolfNow hot deal at 1:36. I got there early and was teeing off by myself at 12:45. Never saw anyone on the front nine, but ran into a... Continue Reading →
Capital Region Trip, Part 2
As great as the first couple days of my trip were, Saturday was really the highlight day in terms of playing some top-ranked courses in the region. I had left the Orioles game a little early on Friday night in order to drive and stay the night in Harrisonburg, VA. Originally, the courses I played... Continue Reading →

Course Review: The Santaluz Club
On Monday, I had a chance to play The Santaluz Club down in San Diego as part of an SCGA member outing. It was a pretty small group this time, so it worked out nicely. I guess there was some major traffic on one of the routes in (thankfully not mine), so people were running... Continue Reading →
Birthday Bonanza 2015 (Continued)
I chronicled Thursday and Friday of my birthday weekend, but I still had plenty of golf in store for Saturday and Sunday, so here we go. In true Nomad style, Thursday was spent in Ventura County and Friday down in Carlsbad. Saturday found me headed east into the Coachella Valley and Sunday I was in... Continue Reading →

Well, it’s my birthday week, and you know what that means. Lots of “free” golf! I really only had a couple days to take advantage of the deals this week, but I made the most of it and will continue to celebrate through the weekend with lots of golf scheduled.Thursday was a marathon day and...

Course Review: Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club
I kept it pretty simple this weekend with just one round planned on Sunday. I have a lot of golf coming up in the next few weeks, including a few birthday rounds this week and also my next out-of-state “Bogeys Across America” adventure next week. This weekend was so simple, in fact, that it was... Continue Reading →
