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 →
A Little Bit of Home Cookin’
I’m spending 4th of July in my hometown of Crescent City, CA. Of course, when I come back home, I always like teeing it up on some of the local courses and enjoying a bit of nostalgia... Salmon Run Golf Course • Brookings, OR • 7/3/13 I’ve written about this course a number of times... 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 →
“Home by the Spring Water” – A Wonderful Day at Yocha Dehe
With today being Day 1 of the new Mayan calendar cycle in South America, I figured I’d pay homage to some native North Americans. As I drove northward to spend Christmastime with family in Northern California, I decided it was an ideal time to stop along the way and finally visit Yocha Dehe Golf Club.... 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 →
Number 250 (and 251)! Night and Day at Half Moon Bay.
Naturally, I wanted to do something kind of special to commemorate my 250th course played. I had toyed with a number of options and was leaning toward Torrey Pines, but it seemed their conditions are sub-par right now and not quite worth the hefty fees they pay us non-residents. So with the Monarch Dunes GK... 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 →
