My Thursday was quite busy, even by my standards, but I didn’t slow down too much over the rest of the weekend. Friday found me playing another 54 holes as I made my way up to the Monterey Peninsula. With my original Tahoe plans falling through, I figured it was a good time to visit... Continue Reading →
Monterey, Day 3: Santa Cruzin’
When you hear “golf” and “Santa Cruz” in the same sentence, the obvious thought is Pasatiempo. It’s one of my favorite all-time courses and I look forward to coming back and playing it again someday. But as you know, I’m always on the quest to explore new courses, so I checked out some of the... Continue Reading →
Monterey, Day 2: Carmel Calling
I’m quite behind in my posts after a long, busy weekend up in the Monterey area. I’m still exhausted from the trip, but I had such a great time. Plus I wanted to make sure my round at Cypress Point was the lead story on the site for at least a few extra days! Friday... Continue Reading →
Dream Course Review: Cypress Point Club
I’ve been a little tight-lipped on this one, so I purposely didn’t hype this trip up too much in advance like I normally would. Part of it was still slight disbelief that I was actually going to get to play here. On top of that, I didn’t want to jinx anything. Bad weather, road trip... Continue Reading →
Flashback Review: Pebble Beach Golf Links
With the AT&T National Pro-Am PGA event coming up this weekend, it’s hard not to think back to my own experience at one of the world’s most revered golf courses—Pebble Beach Golf Links. It was back in 2006 when I played there. To see where I’ve traveled to in the past few years and to... Continue Reading →
Go Ahead, Make My Day
Well, I’m back home from my Bay Area trip. I got a lot to catch up on, but not as much as I hoped. Thursday, we played at Quail Lodge & Golf Club in beautiful Carmel, CA. Our tee time wasn’t until noon, so we had a nice lazy morning (which I am not used... Continue Reading →
Having Fun with a Bayonet
I wasn’t sure if I’d write anything about my current trip until I got back, but I do have some time to kill this morning. I can cover yesterday’s events. The next two days will be written about when I get home this weekend. Earlier this year, a friend of mine and I decided to... Continue Reading →
Keeping Up with the Joneses on the Monterey Peninsula
I’m running a little behind on my posts. The last couple days have been full of a lot of activity—driving, playing a ton of golf, socializing with my GK friends and just today watching the American team get shown up by the European team at the Ryder Cup. Now it’s time to get back to... Continue Reading →
The Infamous 2007 Road Trip, Part 3: The Road Home
Part 3 of this journey took me from Seattle/Tacoma, WA and ultimately led me back home to Orange, CA: Luckily, after my hellish run through Vancouver and into Seattle, I had a bit of time to relax the next morning. I stayed across the lake in Kirkland, but I got some much-needed sleep after such... Continue Reading →
Twas the Season for Great Golf
I usually don’t play too much golf during Christmas time, especially when I’m spending the holidays up in Northen California in my hometown. Usually this time of year, it’s pouring down rain 24/7. But this year, plenty of sunshine was in the forecast. The temperatures were lower than normal without any precipitation, but the forecasts... Continue Reading →
