On Tuesday, I played a quick afternoon round out here. Was looking for something cheap and relatively convenient, so Cresta Verde fit the bill with a $10 GolfNow hot deal at 1:36. I got there early and was teeing off by myself at 12:45. Never saw anyone on the front nine, but ran into a... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Dos Lagos Golf Course
I think it was back in 2006 or so when I first—and last—played Dos Lagos out in Corona. Back then, it was a pretty new course. It was built near the end of the golf (and real estate) boom in Southern California and it never quite became the level of course it was intended to... Continue Reading →

I have fond memories of playing... Continue Reading →

This was my first year participating, so my expectations weren’t too high because I haven’t really played much competitive golf and match play is a different mindset than normal. Either way,...

Three weeks ago, I visited Green River. Two weeks ago, I went down and played Escondido Country Club for... Continue Reading →
