On Monday, I played Victoria Club in Riverside as part of an SCGA member outing. I was excited to finally check out this course. Victoria Club and its golf course(s) have quite a long and complex history dating back to the late 1800s. Their website chronicles it pretty well. Check out this link: http://www.victoriaclub.com/About-Us/Club-History.aspx It is... Continue Reading →
Updated Course Review: Oak Quarry Golf Club

So, I will be posting updated reviews to talk about the latest experience and conditions, along with some new photos. On Thursday I’ll be playing my favorite OC course, Tijeras Creek, and...

The Inland Empire Strikes Back
Saturday found me driving around the Inland Empire in search of some new golf. I had an afternoon round planned with a friend at Glen Ivy Golf Club, but I used the morning to check out a couple more short courses on my list. As usual, I got started nice and early… North Golf Course... Continue Reading →
The Heat is On in the Inland Empire
Sunday found me playing another triple-dip in the Inland Empire, but it wasn’t quite as hardcore as the last one as two of the rounds were on local “short” courses.

Course Review(s): Morongo Golf Club at Tukwet Canyon
It’s hard to believe I’ve never reviewed these courses on this site. It’s even harder for me to believe that I’ve only played here once. It was many years ago, back when it was first opened as the SCPGA Golf Club. Since then, it’s been through several ownership and name changes, coinciding with the roller... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Paradise Knolls Golf Club
Note: This course is now closed. Ah, Paradise Knolls…where the white sand beaches caress your feet as beautiful island women serve drinks in coconuts… Oh nevermind, I forgot this is just a middle-of-the-road golf course in lovely Riverside! There isn’t another course I can think of where the name is such a mismatch with the... Continue Reading →
A Busy Saturday in the Inland Empire
Well, I played 72 holes over the course of the past two days. Admittedly, I’m a little worn out and definitely a bit behind on my reviews. So for now, we’ll focus on what I did yesterday (Saturday) out in the Inland Empire and then I’ll post a second story in the next day or... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Goose Creek Golf Club
Prepare for a vast departure from the last few course reviews I’ve posted. After some disappointing rounds up in LA County in recent weeks, I found redemption Sunday at Goose Creek Golf Club in Mira Loma (just west of Riverside along the I-15 corridor). I went out there yesterday for the first LA Golf Group... Continue Reading →
