Yesterday, I celebrated by 750th golf course played. It was a special experience on an amazing course, but you will have to wait a few days for that review because I am a bit behind. I was able to finalize the booking for that round just last week, and then it occurred to me. If... Continue Reading →
Another Visit to the Central Valley
As you may have noticed, the Central Valley is the next area I am trying to conquer in California. I’ve taken a couple trips up that way recently and hope to do more this summer. Yesterday, a friend and I took a day trip up that way and were able to knock out a couple... Continue Reading →
Course Update: The Links Championship at Summerly
Note: When this course was reopened, they altered the name to The Links Championship at Summerly. I has now gone back to the original, simpler name of The Links at Summerly. I wanted to post a new review about this course that is in the process of being resurrected. After struggling for several years, the... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Rancho Park Golf Course
After three long days of driving and playing golf throughout the Central Valley, I was back home on Sunday and on the course once again. I would have preferred a day of rest, but this round was already set up weeks ago and I didn’t want to bail out on my friends. One of my... Continue Reading →
April in the Central Valley, Day 3: Homeward Bound
On Saturday, I began my journey back home from Modesto. Naturally, I was going to try getting the most out of the day with plenty of courses still left to play between there and here. I was ready to hit the road and tee it up early… Madera Golf Course • Madera, CA • 4/23/16... Continue Reading →
April in the Central Valley, Day 2: Gloomy Weather Won’t Slow Me Down!
After a marathon day on Thursday, I had to peel myself out of bed early in the morning again on Friday. I had less golf in my plans for this day, though. It was partly because I had some business meetings in the afternoon and partly because rain was in the forecast for the late... Continue Reading →
April in the Central Valley, Day 1: Making the Most of a Long Drive
Oh boy. I have a lot to get caught up on. I played a lot of golf four days in a row and all of the courses I played need reviews, so bear with me and check back every day or two for stories throughout the week. I headed up to the Central Valley again... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Spanish Hills Country Club
On Monday, I made the drive up to Camarillo for an SCGA member outing at Spanish Hills Country Club. And I do mean “drive,” as it took me over three hours to get through LA traffic on a Monday morning. It took nearly that to get back home afterward, as well. It was a shotgun start...

Course Review: Dad Miller Golf Course
You guessed it. This was another low-end course on my replay list. I wasn’t necessarily planning to play on Saturday, but was feeling bored in the morning and started looking for tee times. There weren’t many exciting deals at any of my replay list courses, so Dad Miller Golf Course in Anaheim seemed like the... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Oceanside Golf Course
This was another on my replay list. This used to be a regular course in my group’s rotation because it was relatively convenient and reasonably priced amidst the golf boom. Because of this, I have a bit of a soft spot for the course. However, it’s been quite a few years since I’ve been here... Continue Reading →
