Did I mention I’d be busy this week? Well, I was back at it again today at another local private club. This time I was down in beautiful Rancho Santa Fe, which is such a hotbed of amazing golf. There are only private clubs in this town, so I have been working hard to access... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Los Coyotes Country Club
Get ready for a barrage of private club reviews these next two weeks. It just so happens a number of outings were lined up, so I’ll be busy. Next up was today’s round at Los Coyotes Country Club in Buena Park. Though they do have “member for a day” outings here from time to time, they... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Pine Mountain Club
You’re going to see that May and early June are loaded with private club rounds for me. There just happens to be a number of SCGA outings all lined up at courses I haven’t played yet, as well as member for a day deals and other invites that my friends and I have been able... Continue Reading →
April in the Central Valley, Day 1: Making the Most of a Long Drive
Oh boy. I have a lot to get caught up on. I played a lot of golf four days in a row and all of the courses I played need reviews, so bear with me and check back every day or two for stories throughout the week. I headed up to the Central Valley again... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Spanish Hills Country Club
On Monday, I made the drive up to Camarillo for an SCGA member outing at Spanish Hills Country Club. And I do mean “drive,” as it took me over three hours to get through LA traffic on a Monday morning. It took nearly that to get back home afterward, as well. It was a shotgun start...

Course Review: El Niguel Country Club
On Monday, I stayed closed to home in Orange County. Some friends and I had signed up for a charity golf tournament at El Niguel Country Club in Laguna Niguel. The event was raising money for a great charity called Kids Konnected. It was an 11:00 shotgun start and a scramble playing format. We had... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Monterey Country Club
Yesterday, I was able to visit another private club in Southern California. I made my way out to Palm Desert for a round at Monterey Country Club. I was signed up for an SCGA one-day tournament there next week, so a friend and I were able to arrange for a practice round this week. The... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Redlands Country Club
I’ve played some really junky low-level courses in recent weeks as I work through my ‘replay” list of local courses that haven’t yet been reviewed on the site. However, those are mostly just inexpensive filler in between the more meaningful rounds. As spring and summer approach, I should have more opportunities to play private clubs... Continue Reading →
Course Review: La Cañada Flintridge Country Club
On Monday, I was able to add another Southern California private club to the list. I had signed up for a “member for a day” outing at La Cañada Flintridge Country Club through GolfSouthernCal.com. It was a 9:30 shotgun start and the rate was reasonable. Some friends and I signed up for $60 a player,... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Baywood Golf & Country Club
I’m visiting the northern coast of California for the holidays this year. Even though the weather reports are dreary and it has rained almost every day this month, I still came with the hopes of squeezing a little golf in while here. I decided to head up earlier than I originally planned because I saw... Continue Reading →
