My main round last Monday was at Brookside Country Club in Stockton. At the beginning of the year when the NCGA Member Outing schedule came out, this is one that my friend and I targeted. It was one of the less expensive outings at $80. In addition, the timing of it was nice in early... 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 →

I’ve been looking for an excuse to come back and play the “new” version of Poppy Hills since it reopened from its major renovation in 2014. I made a point to play it not too long before it closed. You can read that review from the summer of 2012 here. Pictures were tough that day because... Continue Reading →
With a holiday weekend, you could be sure I had another little road trip in mind. There are many different directions I could consider, but I decided to make my way back up to the Bay Area. I got my start in the East Bay (or Tri-Valley, as locals may prefer in this particular region)... Continue Reading →
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 →
