Tee Time: 9:00am Players: Jy Played the same course again and it was a lot of fun. Our playing partner Iain from last time wanted to join us again so he came by and waited around for us. I played ok but not as well as last time. Driver was a little more erratic this…

Tee Time: 9:00am Players: Jy Laguna Golf Club is located in Phuket in the area of Cheong Thale next to the Banyan Tree hotel. Since we were staying at Banyan Tree it was very convenient to head over to the golf course. The golf course is very nice. Fairways and greens are in good condition…

9/17/2023 – Sagewood (Dream + Vision)
Tee Time: 8:42am Players: Dave, Minchul This was another great round at Sagewood. Since we play no caddie and the course is usually pretty empty, it was a good opportunity for me to experiment a little bit with my driver and try a few things out there on the course. It was a lot of…
9/16/2023 – Hwasan
Tee Time: 6:36am Players: Scott, James, Youngjune This was an early tee time. Since Koreans like to meet up for breakfast in the clubhouse, we met up at 5:45am which meant that I had to get there by 5:30am so I had to leave my house at 4:30am so I had to get up at…

9/9/2023 – La vie est belle (Dunes Course)
Tee Time: 13:11 Players: Jy, Jena, Sunmi This was a fun round but it was hot and it was sunny! Dunes course does not have a lot of trees because it’s a links style course similar to Scotland’s Old Course, etc. It’s a fun course and I played well overall though so that was good….
8/27/2023 – Jisan CC
Tee Time: 6:02am Players: Philip, James, Danny I had one of the best rounds of my life! My driver was pretty solid and going straight, irons and short game were decent. I didn’t birdie any holes though and I didn’t par as many as I wanted because my putting wasn’t so great but I did…
8/20/2023 – Asiana (East Course)
Tee Time: 6:15am Players: June, Eric, Woochul Although Asiana is a tough course, I like the course and have fun playing here. I especially like the more difficult East Course mainly for the hole where we ride the funicular type thing up from hole 7 to hole 8 (iirc). There was talk about getting rid…
