Last week, I played golf for the first time in 2020. It's crazy to say that, but I've actually been enjoying this break and I will probably go right back into hibernation. The only things that would tempt me to briefly come out of semi-retirement with all that's going on in 2020 would be the... Continue Reading →
Obviously, the content has been a little light lately. I haven't been playing as much, but I should have some new course reviews coming with some holiday travel in the near future. Yesterday afternoon, I did get out and play some golf at Eagle Falls Golf Course in Indio. It was only my second time... Continue Reading →
Exactly seven years ago today, a friend and I drove out to the Coachella Valley for a quick overnight golf trip that found us playing a whopping two courses before heading home. We played the South Course at The Golf Club at Terra Lago one day and then the Dunes Course at La Quinta Resort... Continue Reading →
After finishing the SCGA outing at Andalusia last Thursday, my golf day wasn't over. I had also arranged for a round at Mountain View Country Club at La Quinta. This is another private club that doesn't get a ton of attention in the Coachella Valley golf scene, but it's another one I was glad I... Continue Reading →
On Thursday, I attended the SCGA member outing at Andalusia Country Club. It is also known as Andalusia at Coral Mountain, which is the name of the high-end residential community in which the course/club is situated. This was the first stop on the SCGA's annual Bob Hope Trail, though it was the only round I... Continue Reading →
Yesterday afternoon, I finally made it out to the renovated version of SilverRock in La Quinta. After being reduced to a 9-hole course for some time, the full course reopened last fall and revealed its new back nine configuration. I know the renovation was mainly done to make room for the eventual resort that will... Continue Reading →
I was very happy with how easily and smoothly all my content from the old Bogeys Across America site transferred over to this new site. In fact, everything about this new site has made me happier because it actually works! Hundreds of articles and photos were pulled over from the lame Tumblr platform to the... Continue Reading →
This past Sunday, I had the rare opportunity to experience a true piece of golf history in the Coachella Valley. O’Donnell Golf Club in Palm Springs is the oldest active course in the valley, with its roots dating back to the 1920s. O’Donnell is a private club with a very small membership base, so it’s...

When I mentioned to some friends recently that I would be playing at Tri Palm this past weekend, I only got a blank stare in return. When I mentioned the club’s old name of Shenandoah Springs, that stare only got slightly less confused. In other words, this is a private golf community not that many... Continue Reading →
I moved out to the Coachella Valley in March and have been enjoying the local golf scene. I’ve already gotten somewhat used to the heat every day. I’ve been able to play some great private clubs. There have also been a few little short courses I’ve played, but haven’t posted about yet on this site.... Continue Reading →
