We've reached the end of my 3-day Southern Utah adventure. After marathon days on both Thursday and Friday of my trip, I was left with just one course in St. George that I hadn't played yet. It turns out, I saved one of the best surprises for last... Sunbrook Golf Club • St. George, UT... Continue Reading →
Under the St. George Sun
Before my recent trip to St. George, I had 11 potential courses on my checklist that I hadn't yet played. Before noon on the second day, I only had three left! Uncrowded courses, affordable rates and quick rounds made it easy to keep playing. Yet, the heat seemed to crank up an extra notch by... Continue Reading →
Highs and Lows in Southern Utah
After 72 holes of golf on Thursday (shortened a little by weather) in St. George, I was right back at it as early as possible on Friday morning. I ended up playing 90 holes on this day, yet was still done by 6:00. That just shows how empty most of these courses are in the... Continue Reading →
Short Course Blitz: Southern Utah
With so much golf around St. George, it's a bit surprising that the area really doesn't have that many short courses. And, two of them are actually at the same facility!

With a four-day Thanksgiving weekend and no significant family obligations to worry about, you can usually expect to find me on the road. That was certainly the case this year, as a friend and I decided to head up to Mesquite, Nevada, which when paired with nearby St. George, Utah, has grown into one of... Continue Reading →
The Long Road Home, from Colorado to Utah and Beyond.
Well, I made it home in one piece, and since I was unable to get online last night I have a couple of days to cover. Let’s start with yesterday in Colorado. After two days in a row with 36 holes each, yesterday was a bit more relaxed pace. I headed out toward Lakota Canyon... Continue Reading →
The Infamous 2007 Road Trip, Part 1: Desert Heat, a Yellowstone Treat and Bunkers that Were Neat
As I look forward to this May when I have my next big Golf Nomad adventure planned through Southwest and Midwest states, I can’t help but think back to my other massive golf road trip in 2007. I also wanted to celebrate the fact I finally got my own custom domain name for this site... Continue Reading →
