After a four-day golf barrage last weekend up the coast, it was kind of nice to relax this weekend. Saturday was a rare one without any golf, but I was back at it again today for a quick, local 18 at Anaheim Hills Golf Course. Now that I’ve achieved one of my goals to play... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 4: Time to Get Crazy
After 271 holes over the previous three days, playing just 18 on Sunday before heading home might seem like a bit of a letdown. I could have played more, but I opted to get home and watch the end of the wacky PGA Championship at Valhalla. I’m glad I did because that was highly entertaining... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 3: No Slowing Down
I don’t know if I just wanted to feel younger during my long birthday weekend or what, but it ended up being the most golf I’ve ever crammed into a three-day stretch. 63 holes Thursday. 54 Friday. And another 54 Saturday as I continued my tour of the Monterey Peninsula… Rancho Cañada Golf Club (West)... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 2: Much More Golf in Monterey
My Thursday was quite busy, even by my standards, but I didn’t slow down too much over the rest of the weekend. Friday found me playing another 54 holes as I made my way up to the Monterey Peninsula. With my original Tahoe plans falling through, I figured it was a good time to visit... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 1: A Really, Really Busy Birthday
I hit the road again last weekend. I had taken Thursday off from work because it was my birthday and decided I might as well take Friday off, too, for an extended weekend golf trip. Originally, my plan was to head up toward South Lake Tahoe, but the weather forecast looked terrible all weekend. Fortunately,... Continue Reading →

Bakersfield Beckons Once Again
I just can’t seem to stay off the road. Just wait until you see what I’m up to next weekend! As my choices for new courses keep getting more and more limited, I tend to jump at any chance to play somewhere I haven’t played before, especially when it’s a regulation course.. I was drawn...

Western Arizona, Part 2: Odd Weather. Interesting Courses.
I told you about the two rounds I played Saturday morning in Lake Havasu, but obviously I still had a lot of daylight left to squeeze in a third round in the afternoon. Heck, I had more than enough time to play a fourth, but I thought better of it amidst the summer weather in... Continue Reading →
Western Arizona, Part 1: Goin’ to Havasu, Bro
As the work week was drawing to an end, I was feeling the itch to get on the road again this weekend. I didn’t want to go super far from home (4-5 hours max), but I also wanted to travel some place new. That really only left two options for me geographically. One destination I’m... Continue Reading →
Course Review: California Country Club
There are two private courses that go by the initials of CCC in Whittier. I had the chance to play Candlewood Country Club earlier this year. I ended up liking that course a lot, so I was excited to play California Country Club yesterday. This is one that’s been on my radar for awhile. Though... Continue Reading →
