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: Rancho California RV Resort
I have a habit of playing somewhere super nice and exclusive (such as The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe last weekend), and then following that up with something rather obscure and not quite as desirable. But that’s how life as a Golf Nomad goes. When you are on a quest to play as many courses... 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: Lake Arrowhead Country Club
It was another productive weekend for me as I got to check two more private clubs off my Southern California list. On Friday, I made my way back up to the mountains to play Lake Arrowhead Country Club. Some friends and I signed up for a charity tournament here. It was the Ted Roy Foundation... 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: Sandpiper Golf Club
It was a really busy weekend for me, so I am still getting caught up. On Sunday, I headed up the coast to the Santa Barbara area to meet up with the Greenskeeper.org crew for another fun “GK Plays” outing at the famed Sandpiper Golf Club. I played the course once before, but it has... Continue Reading →
Short Course Blitz #17: In Search of Rare Collectibles
This is a busy golf week for me, but it’s been fun with a lot of diverse courses in play. I haven’t done a Short Course Blitz in a long while, and this article barely qualifies as one since I played these three courses on three separate days and they are located all over the... 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 →
