With so much golf around St. George, it's a bit surprising that the area really doesn't have that many short courses. And, two of them are actually at the same facility! And, one of those barely counts as a golf course! The good news is that a lack in quantity does not mean a lack... Continue Reading →
The big debate when planning my St. George trip was whether or not I wanted to splurge for a round at Entrada at Snow Canyon. This is widely considered one of the best—the best according to many—course in Southern Utah. However, it is technically a private club. The only way to get on here as... Continue Reading →
I usually end up taking some sort of golf trip around my birthday. I went a few days early this year for a few reasons. I was looking at different destinations that were moderately affordable, reasonably close to drive to and packed with new courses for me to play. I was considering Flagstaff/Sedona, which is...

The finale of my most recent Northern California road trip was a grand one, indeed. In fact, it was such a good get that we had to add an extra day onto the trip and drive pretty far out of the way from San Francisco to Truckee. Then, we drove all the way back home... Continue Reading →
After my special 1K round at The Olympic Club on Tuesday, my trip wasn't quite over. We ended up tacking on one more day that required a sizable detour out to Truckee. You'll find out why in my next post. Let's just say we had something great lined up for the afternoon, and after my... Continue Reading →
After all the hype of the past few months, I finally made it to 1K. Yes, I reached the milestone of 1,000 different courses played on July 17, 2018. I always like to do something special whenever I reach every 100th course (and a few of the 50s, as well). Of course, I wanted to... Continue Reading →
One of my primary reasons for this most recent road trip to Northern California was because of an NCGA member outing scheduled at Berkeley Country Club on Monday, July 16. If you are keeping with my countdown to 1,000 courses played, this would represent #998 on the list. This was the middle round on a... Continue Reading →
As you may already know, the final countdown to 1,000 courses was in full effect on my most recent Northern California trip. On Sunday, I played one round at Baylands in Palo Alto (#996). On Monday, I had three rounds on tap. It was a specific plan to be sitting at #999 by the end of... Continue Reading →
Recently, I posted my review of the new South Course at Corica Park in the East Bay Area. Well, the South Bay has a new and improved course of its own. Baylands Golf Links also reopened very recently and has kind of a similar story. This used to be known as Palo Alto Golf Course.... Continue Reading →
If all goes as planned (knocking on wood as I write), I will be playing my 1,000th golf course on Tuesday, July 17. It will be somewhere pretty special, so stay tuned. With that milestone in mind, I need to stay on pace with my new course count so that everything times out correctly with... Continue Reading →
