Note: This course was significantly renovated and renamed Boulder Oaks Golf Club. Check out the more recent review here. I played out here this morning with a few buddies. It was my second time playing Meadow Lake in Escondido, but I remembered it being a fun layout with a handful of scenic views. Having played... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Sierra Lakes Golf Club
Sierra Lakes is a course I’ve always heard nice things about, so I’ve been wanting to check it out for awhile. Today seemed like a fitting time to go out there, as well. In a couple of weeks, I’ll be playing golf in Kentucky. And Fontana, where Sierra Lakes is located, is often mockingly referred... Continue Reading →
A Delicious Malibu Sandwich
I will use a brief food analogy to describe my golf weekend. I think of it like a sandwich. In the middle, you have some delicious smoked turkey (my favorite) and all the toppings you enjoy most. On the outside, you have the bread. In this case, pretty basic white bread. That is not to... Continue Reading →
Just got some personalized balls. Now every time I lose one at least I’ll get some advertising out of it.
Another Long Day in Ventura County
This past Sunday, I headed up for another long and fun-filled day of golf in Ventura County. I was set to play in my second LA Golf Group event in the afternoon at River Ridge (Lakes) in Oxnard, but as usual, I decided to make a full day of it. I didn’t really want to... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Navy Golf Course (Destroyer)
Took a half-day off from work yesterday. I’ve been looking for an excuse to come out and play the Navy Course all year as it’s one of few public courses I hadn’t yet played in Orange County. It’s located right next to the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base. They have two courses here at... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Costa Mesa Country Club (Mesa Linda)
Mesa Linda is the shorter of the two courses here (Los Lagos being the other). Some people might look down on the overall short yardage of this course and the six par-3 holes, but it’s one of the most fun layouts around. There are lots of risk/reward options and scoring opportunities. The only major challenge... Continue Reading →
Another Adventurous Day in San Diego
Yesterday was another Golf Nomad kind of day. Nothing quite went as expected, but in the end, I got to enjoy some new golf experiences and that's all that matters. Friday afternoon, I did my usual GolfNow sweep, looking for deals at SoCal courses I haven’t played yet. I ultimately found a $47 early bird... Continue Reading →
Too Much Indy-cision…
I’m exactly a month away from my next big Bogeys Across America trip. Only a few things are set in stone so far, but the pieces are slowly coming together. The one thing I do know for sure is that I am flying into Indianapolis on August 11 and flying home the following Saturday night... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Country Club at Soboba Springs
A friend and I played here yesterday morning for the first time in many years. We used to play out here a lot back in the day. Even though it’s a long drive, it used to be one of the best deals in SoCal. The prices were great and the course was relatively easy to... Continue Reading →
