This may be one of the shortest solo reviews I ever write, but I didn’t have any other courses to pair with La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club for one of my “Short Course Blitzes.” Nonetheless, I played out here on Saturday morning and I’ll go ahead and post a review.. A friend stayed at... Continue Reading →
Special Course Review: The Links at Petco
This morning, I had one of the most interesting golf experiences of my life. Those who follow my blog may know that in addition to golf, I also love baseball, and I make it a point to visit different stadiums when on one of my out-of-state trips.Today, I got to combine the best of both...

Northwest Trip, Part 3: Green Grass & Gloomy Skies
The weather has been pretty ugly up here and I haven’t had much free time for golf anyway, but I was able to squeeze in another couple of rounds before getting home. Thankfully, the gloomy skies were counterbalanced by a lot of green grass on the courses I played, so that was nice to see... Continue Reading →
Northwest Trip, Part 2: All Around Portland

For this post, I am grouping together the first few rounds to keep things easy and manageable… The Reserve Vineyards and Golf Club (North Course) • Aloha, OR • 10/24/15 I made it a point...

Northwest Road Trip, Part 1: In the Shadows of Shasta
I’m up in the Portland/Vancouver area this week tending to some non-golf family obligations, but that won’t prevent me from getting in a few rounds when I can. I took advantage of the long drive up to visit one of my personal favorite courses. Since I haven’t played the Mount Shasta Resort course since starting... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Vista Valley Country Club
Today, I played in another SCGA event. This one was at Vista Valley Country Club, which most people don’t know much about. It’s kind of obscurely located geographically and it’s not one of the big name clubs in San Diego County, but I sure enjoyed the experience there. The price was a reasonable $60 for...

Course Review: Lomas Santa Fe Country Club
As I continue my quest to everything I can, I look for any opportunity to play private clubs. Yesterday, I was able to sign up for a “member for a day” outing at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach. The name may sound familiar because there is another course there, Lomas Santa Fe...

Course Review: Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club
It’s been a little quiet on the blog, but it’s kind of the calm before the storm as the next few weeks will keep me rather busy with new courses to play and review. I was able to get out yesterday and play another nice private club. As I keep working my way through the... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Rancho California RV Resort
I have a habit of playing somewhere super nice and exclusive (such as The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe last weekend), and then following that up with something rather obscure and not quite as desirable. But that’s how life as a Golf Nomad goes. When you are on a quest to play as many courses... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe
On Saturday, I had the rare opportunity to play one of Southern California’s most exclusive private clubs, and undoubtedly one of the toughest to access in all of San Diego County. I’ve played a lot in Rancho Santa Fe lately, but The Bridges is the one that always intrigues people the most. Some people may... Continue Reading →
