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 →
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 →
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 →
You Stay Classy, San Diego.
It was almost a year ago that I rediscovered my passion for the game of golf. It’s gotten even crazier since I started this blog in October. I’ve been traveling a lot, sampling a lot of new courses and exploring as much as possible. I enjoy the personal experiences at so many different courses and... Continue Reading →
A Nomad’s Work is Never Done
I had planned to take it easy this weekend. After five weekends in a row with a lot of driving and a lot of golf, I wanted to decompress a bit. My plan was to take a half day off of work on Friday and play in the afternoon, then have all of Saturday and... Continue Reading →
Another Weekend. Another Golf “Ad-Ventura.”
Well, it was another busy golf weekend and another out-of-town adventure. This weekend, I headed up to Ventura. It’s really not a super far drive for me (1:45, give or take, depending on traffic), but just far enough to feel significant. Anyway, I had signed up for an outing put on by Greenskeeper.org and the... Continue Reading →
