I just got home from a quick three-day trip to Southern Nevada/Northwest Arizona. The first two days were spent in the Las Vegas area, though the first round was actually a bit further out of the way... Lake View Executive Golf Course • Pahrump, NV • 5/23/18 In case you weren't aware that the small... Continue Reading →
Yesterday afternoon, I finally made it out to the renovated version of SilverRock in La Quinta. After being reduced to a 9-hole course for some time, the full course reopened last fall and revealed its new back nine configuration. I know the renovation was mainly done to make room for the eventual resort that will... Continue Reading →
The final stop on my recent Northern California trip was one of the best. I was so fortunate to be able to line up two private Monterey clubs on Tuesday and it couldn't have worked out more perfectly in terms of timing, geography, etc. After we finished at Nicklaus Club - Monterey, we headed just...

Note: This course has since changed its name to The Club at Pasadera, similar to its original name of Pasadera Country Club. Monday's morning round at The Preserve Golf Club was something special, but I was also really looking forward to my Tuesday plans. I was somehow able to arrange rounds on two of the...

After The Preserve review, I think we all need a little bit of a palate cleanser. That was such a special experience, it's time to come back down to earth before reviewing the last two really nice courses that I got to play on this recent trip to Northern California. That's right. It's time for... Continue Reading →

Obviously, Cypress Point was the top of my California bucket list at one point. However, I had the great fortune to play that dream round back in 2013. That moved The Preserve Golf...

After rounds at Spring Valley and San Jose Municipal on Sunday, we kept our overpriced muni marathon going in the late afternoon down at Santa Teresa Golf Club. We knew it would also be crowded here, but were hopeful it wouldn't be quite as packed as San Jose Municipal. Turns out we were in for... Continue Reading →
After my Short Course Blitz on Saturday, I stayed up in Fremont in advance of a few rounds in the San Jose area on Sunday. A golf buddy met up with me for the rest of the trip. We don't have a big overlap list of courses we both need to play in this area,... Continue Reading →
Wow! What an incredibly fun four days up in Northern California. Just got home last night and have a lot to get caught up on since I played 13 new courses. Going to do my best to get everything written and posted, while also making sure to spread things out. I know I likely won't... Continue Reading →
Note: This course is now (very sadly) closed. On Saturday, I made my way down to San Diego to visit Carmel Mountain Ranch Country Club. This is a course I had only played once before and it was long before this blog. I was looking forward to revisiting it and finally writing an official review.... Continue Reading →
