I was very happy with how easily and smoothly all my content from the old Bogeys Across America site transferred over to this new site. In fact, everything about this new site has made me happier because it actually works! Hundreds of articles and photos were pulled over from the lame Tumblr platform to the... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Woodland Hills Country Club
On Friday afternoon, I was out in the Los Angeles area and I was able to tee it up at Woodland Hills Country Club in Woodland Hills. I was able to arrange a preview round with the club and I was excited to finally play this course. It seems I know a lot of people... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Virginia Country Club
Yesterday, I went and played Virginia Country Club in Long Beach, CA for the first time. This one has been on my wish list for a long time, but opportunities to access this private club are very few and far between. The few charity tournaments I have seen there have been ridiculously expensive. A friend... Continue Reading →
Holiday Trip 2017, Part 1: Starting in Sacramento
If you’ve followed this trip over the years, you’ll know I usually end up in Northern California and Southern Oregon over the holiday break because that’s where a lot of my family and friends live. 2017 was a little different as we decided to spend Christmas at my brother’s house in Vancouver, WA (just across...

Course Review: Sun Lakes Country Club (Executive Course)

I played alongside the Assistant Pro at the club and he shared a lot of... Continue Reading →

Course Review: Oakmont Country Club
When most people hear the name Oakmont Country Club, they immediately think of the famous major-host course in Western Pennsylvania. Some Northern Californians may even think of Oakmont Golf Club up in Santa Rosa. However, Southern California has its own Oakmont Country Club, located in the hills of Glendale. It was established in 1922. It’s... Continue Reading →
Disappointment in the Delta
The last day of my recent Bay Area trip took me to the northeast part of the Bay Area. Perhaps it’s better known as the Sacramento Delta region, where the bay transitions into the rivers and sloughs near Stockton and Sacramento. I had only been to this area once before, and both of those courses... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Lake Merced Golf Club
Monday’s round at Lake Merced Golf Club was the main reason for this most recent little trip to the Bay Area. It’s one I’ve been looking forward to for awhile. The NCGA has outings here every year and it is always their most popular event. In recent years, they’ve done two outings each year and... Continue Reading →
Golfin’ on the Dock of Bay
I recently took another 3-day trip to the Bay Area, centered around an NCGA outing at historic Lake Merced Golf Club on Monday. A friend and I drove up together on Sunday morning and we were able to squeeze in plenty of golf before and after that round Monday—despite some limited daylight thanks to the... Continue Reading →
