Tee Time: 8:43am Players: Myung Kook, Kyle, Steven Website: https://pocheon.hillmaru.com/ This is a pretty new golf resort that just opened in March 2023 so it’s only about a month old. It looks like there is another Hill Maru golf course in another area of Korea so maybe they are owned by the same company. The…

3/26/2023 – Ansung Benest (East | South)
Tee Time: 13:17 Players, Iris, Inho, Junchul This was a pretty fun round although it started getting pretty cold towards the end. I played well and my driver was relatively straight and in bounds so that was nice. I did mess up a few drives on mis-hits though so that was a bit disappointing. My…
3/24/2023 Ba Na Hills Golf Club (Danang, Vietnam)
Tee Time: 12:45pm Players: Jy, Joanne, Shirley This is a nice golf course located in bana hills so it’s up in the mountains. I think it’s usually somewhat cooler up here because of the higher elevation but the golf course is in a valley area between mountains so I think it’s really hot and it…
3/22/2023 – Montgomerie Links (Danang, Vietnam)
Tee Time: 11:51am Players: Jy, 2 Koreans We were paired up with 2 random Koreans. They said that they were pretty much playing on the course for the first time but they weren’t that bad. They were beginners but played decent golf. I think sometimes Koreans just like to downplay their skills. Anyway, the course…
3/20/2023 – BRG Danang (Nicklaus Course) (Danang, Vietnam)
Tee Time: 10:00am Players: Jy, Paul BRG Danang is a nice course just south of the Danang beach area. There are 2 courses: Norman (designed by Greg Norman) and Nicklaus (designed by Jack Nicklaus). The newer course is the Nicklaus course and most people believe that it’s the nicer course. Almost every hole has a…
3/12/2023 – Rock Garden
Tee Time: 7:28am Players: Kang Hyun, Hee Jung, Jy I like Rock Garden since the course itself is nice enough and there’s no caddie so you can just feel free to take mulligans, etc. It’s only 9 holes so you go through it twice. It started raining so after 6 holes we just called it…
3/11/2023 – Asiana (East)
Tee Time: 12:53 Players: Byung Sam, Eric, June Asiana is a tough course but I like playing east. At the end of the round, there is the lift that takes you up to the upper level so this is pretty cool and unique. I have heard that they are going to get rid of it…
3/4/2023 – Ansung Benest (North + West)
Tee Time: 12:28pm Players: Malcolm, Dave, Jy This was a great spring day for golf! The weather wasn’t too cold and it was such a nice day. The grass is still yellow though and although I can see a red ball very well, caddies usually don’t like red balls so I switched over to white…
2/18/2023 – The Lakes at Osan
Tee Time: 9:30am Players, Ys, Jy, Colonel Played golf with the colonel. Colonel is a cool older guy who is a pretty good golfer. He ended up shooting 11 over. I had a decent day on the course. My driver was pretty good so that’s always a good day for me. I also lose a…
1/2023 – Fairways and Bluewater
I played golf at Fairways and Bluewater 3 times during my weeklong vacation to Boracay. Fairways and Bluewater is the largest resort in Boracay and it’s huge. It’s so big that you can’t even walk the premises and you need to wait to take a shuttle to take you around. The golf course is located…
