Normally I try to take advantage of some free golf deals on my birthday. However, this year a friend invited me to join him at Torrey Pines. We have been talking about lining up a round here for awhile, so I decided that was a pretty nice way to spend part of my birthday. My... Continue Reading →
Note: This course is now (very sadly) closed. On Saturday, I made my way down to San Diego to visit Carmel Mountain Ranch Country Club. This is a course I had only played once before and it was long before this blog. I was looking forward to revisiting it and finally writing an official review.... Continue Reading →
On Friday, I made what is now a long journey for me down to Coronado Island across the bay from downtown San Diego. Most people know about the nice municipal golf course on the island (Coronado Golf Course), but not as many people are familiar with the other course located on the north side of...

This has been another productive week for me. I knew I had two rounds at SoCal private clubs lined up, but ended up getting to play five in the course of two days! June is already off to a fantastic start. On Wednesday, I was down in San Diego County all day having a whole... Continue Reading →
This may be one of the shortest solo reviews I ever write, but I didn’t have any other courses to pair with La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club for one of my “Short Course Blitzes.” Nonetheless, I played out here on Saturday morning and I’ll go ahead and post a review.. A friend stayed at... Continue Reading →
As I continue my quest to everything I can, I look for any opportunity to play private clubs. Yesterday, I was able to sign up for a “member for a day” outing at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach. The name may sound familiar because there is another course there, Lomas Santa Fe...

It’s been a little quiet on the blog, but it’s kind of the calm before the storm as the next few weeks will keep me rather busy with new courses to play and review. I was able to get out yesterday and play another nice private club. As I keep working my way through the... Continue Reading →
On Monday, I had a chance to play The Santaluz Club down in San Diego as part of an SCGA member outing. It was a pretty small group this time, so it worked out nicely. I guess there was some major traffic on one of the routes in (thankfully not mine), so people were running... Continue Reading →
I played out here on Saturday in an SCGA member outing. It’s rare they hold these on weekends, but they are becoming a little more frequent and I’m always happy to sign up when it’s a course I haven’t played. It was a 1:30 shotgun start, but the traffic on the I-5 was brutal and... Continue Reading →
Last week, I was able to wrap up my Los Angeles County public short course list. Saturday, it was San Diego County’s turn. I had four left to play, and though the plan didn’t work out as smoothly as hoped, I still got them all in before the day’s end. As usual, I got a... Continue Reading →
