As you saw in my Wilcox Oaks review, I had taken a significant detour northward to play that round. With that tee time not until 8:00, my friends and I used the early morning to check the other course in Red Bluff off our lists... Oak Creek Golf Course • Red Bluff, CA • 6/20/19...

I already mentioned that I was a bit all over the place on this particular Northern California trip. That is nothing out of the ordinary for me. I was coordinating with some friends for the various private club rounds we played. Time and day limitations at certain clubs forced us to mix up our routing... Continue Reading →
As I mentioned in my North Bay Short Course Blitz, this was a unique trip that was mainly centered around rounds at four different private clubs in Northern California. Everything else was just checklist filler and playing it by ear, which is why I ended up playing so many short courses along the way. The... Continue Reading →
I spent another very busy three days in Northern California last week. In total, I ended up playing 11 new courses. It was an interesting mix this time as four of them were private clubs, one was a normal public 18 and six were 9-hole short courses. Obviously, I have a lot of reviews and... Continue Reading →
For the final review of my East Bay trip, I will look at the two courses at Las Positas Golf Course in Livermore. Here, they have the Signature 18 regulation course and the Links 9, which is a 9-hole par-3 course. Let's get right into it... Links 9 I had a 10:45 tee time on... Continue Reading →

I'm going to jump around a little chronologically for this post just because of how things lined up for the different course reviews. If you read my Short Course Blitz, you can see how all over the place I was last week as I checked as many courses off my East Bay list as possible.... Continue Reading →
One of my primary goals of this most recent trip to the Bay Area was to check off as much of my remaining East Bay public list as I could. Ultimately, I played 12 new courses over four days and half of them were short courses. Guess what that means? It's Short Course Blitz time!... Continue Reading →
I just got back from another 4-day trip up to the Bay Area. This time, I was mainly focused on my East Bay public course list as I worked my schedule around a couple of big group outings on Sunday and Monday. This trip did feature a number of "straggler" short courses, so expect a... Continue Reading →
If my Part 3 reviews were a study of contrast in terms of playing conditions, the final two stops on my recent North Bay Area trip also represent quite a contrast. This time, the playing conditions at both courses were very good. However, the layouts and settings couldn't be more different from one another. After... Continue Reading →
