Note: This course is now closed. Though I had no plans to play golf Sunday, I found myself a bit antsy in the morning. Also, I’ve had a growing curiosity about this course in Chino Hills that recently opened for public play. This once private club is now open to the public all day on... Continue Reading →
So Many Oak Trees, So Little Time
I have a lot to get caught up on after a busy weekend of golf. It took me about halfway through my round yesterday to realize that, though I went all over the place the past two days, there actually was a theme to it all: oak trees! I do think they are a beautiful... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Seven Hills Golf Club
After a very busy few weeks leading up to my 300th-course celebration at Torrey Pines on Monday, I chose to take it a little easier this weekend. In fact, I wasn’t planning to play at all, but the golf gods spoke to me and I had to answer. For the past several months, I’ve been... 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 →
Course Review: Redhawk Golf Club
I don’t often play on Sundays (especially during NFL season), but today was a special occasion and the ideal combination of factors. For one, my team, the Atlanta Falcons, played on Thursday night so I didn’t feel the same compulsion to stay home and watch football all day. Secondly, today was the date I had... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Journey at Pechanga
Three-word review: Worth the wait! Long-winded review: Wow! What a difference a week makes. Last Sunday, I was slated to play the highly touted Journey at Pechanga course for the first time. However, the weather was so ugly when I showed up, that I decided to cancel my tee time and play Summerly instead. I... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Links at Summerly
Well, if you read yesterday’s post, you are probably expecting to see a course review for Journey at Pechanga here. Things don’t always go as planned. I got up this morning, eager to get out to Temecula and finally tee it up on that highly regarded course. I was excited to be taking advantage of... Continue Reading →
Crossing a Couple More Off My List
So, the life of the Golf Nomad is not always so glamourous. Sometimes you have to dig through some coal before you get to the diamonds. That’s what today’s story is all about. Tomorrow is my marquee round for the weekend. I usually don’t play on Sundays during NFL season, but my team (Atlanta, 6-0... Continue Reading →
Different Strokes for Different Folks
If yesterday’s golf adventure was a college art project, it would have been entitled “A Study in Contrast.” It was another interesting day out on the links in the Inland Empire with two vastly different courses played. But I had a lot of fun during both rounds, which just proves the fact there’s many ways... Continue Reading →
