On Saturday, a friend and I made our way down to Fallbrook. The late morning traffic was pretty miserable, but we made it just in time for our 12:30 tee time at Fallbrook Golf Club. Playing Fallbrook this weekend satisfied a couple of needs. First, it was on my “replay” list since I had never... Continue Reading →
A Return to Rams Hill
On Sunday, it was time to make a return out to Rams Hill Golf Club in Borrego Springs. I had the opportunity to play there twice last year, not long after it reopened. It had gone through a major resurrection and quickly reestablished itself as one of the best courses in Southern California. I first... Continue Reading →
My Own Little RTJ Trail in Southern California
Alabama is home to the famous Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, which I was fortunate enough to play a few stops on in 2014. However, RTJ Sr. has had a hand in several classic Southern California courses, as well. I just happened to play two of them in back-to-back days, so I kind of experienced... Continue Reading →
Course Review: La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club (Spindrift Golf Course)
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 →
Course Review: Vista Valley Country Club
Today, I played in another SCGA event. This one was at Vista Valley Country Club, which most people don’t know much about. It’s kind of obscurely located geographically and it’s not one of the big name clubs in San Diego County, but I sure enjoyed the experience there. The price was a reasonable $60 for...

Course Review: Lomas Santa Fe Country Club
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...

Course Review: Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club
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 →
Course Review: The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe
On Saturday, I had the rare opportunity to play one of Southern California’s most exclusive private clubs, and undoubtedly one of the toughest to access in all of San Diego County. I’ve played a lot in Rancho Santa Fe lately, but The Bridges is the one that always intrigues people the most. Some people may... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Farms Golf Club
On Monday, I headed back down to Rancho Santa Fe, which is an area I’ve had the fortune to visit numerous times over the past few months with rounds at Morgan Run, Santaluz and Fairbanks Ranch. I’ll be back there soon to check out another couple of private courses, so stay tuned. Anyway, this last... Continue Reading →
Course Review: Morgan Run Club & Resort
On Sunday, I made my way back down to Rancho Santa Fe to check another private club off the list. Technically, Morgan Run is also a resort, too, so you can play it if you are willing to pay up with a stay and play package. Though I’ve always known it was accessible in this... Continue Reading →
