Note: They have since changed the name to simply The Saticoy Club. On Friday, I had the great opportunity to play Saticoy Country Club up in Somis (just outside of Ventura). This is one of those old private clubs I’ve always heard great things about, yet there was still some mystery to it as it’s... Continue Reading →
Course Review: San Luis Obispo Country Club
On Tuesday, I took the day off from work to play in this SCGA member outing at San Luis Obispo Country Club. Of course, I made a full day out of it playing some “warm up” rounds on short courses in the Central Coast area. However, I will review those separately in a new “Short... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 3: No Slowing Down
I don’t know if I just wanted to feel younger during my long birthday weekend or what, but it ended up being the most golf I’ve ever crammed into a three-day stretch. 63 holes Thursday. 54 Friday. And another 54 Saturday as I continued my tour of the Monterey Peninsula… Rancho Cañada Golf Club (West)... Continue Reading →
Coastal Trip, Day 2: Much More Golf in Monterey
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 →
Bakersfield Beckons Once Again
I just can’t seem to stay off the road. Just wait until you see what I’m up to next weekend! As my choices for new courses keep getting more and more limited, I tend to jump at any chance to play somewhere I haven’t played before, especially when it’s a regulation course.. I was drawn...

Course Review: Westridge Golf Club
Another day, another round of golf. For me, this was a nice relaxing weekend with just two rounds of golf (one a day), but both were slow, so it still seemed to burn a lot of time on each day. Sunday kept me a little closer to home with a visit to Westridge Golf Club... Continue Reading →
Enjoying Some of Santa Barbara County’s Best Golf
The Santa Barbara area is known for many things, and local golfers know it as a hotbed of quality courses. There’s not much in terms of quantity, but the quality is undeniable. I had the opportunity to play two of the area’s best courses yesterday on a picture perfect day. The Ranch Course at The... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Maderas Golf Club
2013 has been a productive year for me when it comes to playing some of San Diego County’s more expensive courses. When I first made my full wish list, I figured it would take awhile to chip away at all the high-end options down there, but I’ve been able to take advantage of a few... Continue Reading →
Central Oregon, Part 3: A Land of Diversity
Well, I’m back in my hometown of Crescent City, CA for a few days, so hopefully I’ll have a little downtime to catch up on my reviews and photos. I’ll chip away one day at a time. My last day in Bend on this trip was Monday and I was able to fit in two... Continue Reading →
Central Oregon, Part 1: A Long Drive with Endless Rewards
Well, I guess I lied when I posted last night about not being able to update my blog from the road the next few days. That may still hold true after today, but I got a very quick early morning round in today and have a few hours to spare before my late afternoon round... Continue Reading →
