Tee Time: 8:22am Players: Luke, Joshua, Eunyoung We had a great day at the course! La vie est belle is still one of the most popular golf courses in Korea and old course is the more popular course (compared to Dunes). Dunes is more of a links course and I guess Koreans don’t really like…

Tee Time: 7:26am Players: Malcolm, Thierry We were supposed to play with our friend Adrian who is leaving Korea soon (so this was supposed to be our farewell round) but with covid numbers up and Adrian unfortunately catching covid, he couldn’t make it. So we played with just the 3 of us. It was a…

Tee Time: 9:45am Players: Eric, June, Byungsam Asiana is a nice country club located in the Yongin area so it’s not far from Seoul. It’s a popular country club but not open to the public but many corporations have membership there so I tend to play here a few times per year. Parking is valet…
7/9/2022 – Sagewood (Dream | Vision)
Tee Time: 7:14am Players: Gary, Taeho, Minsung Sagewood is one of my favorite public courses in Korea but I played pretty crappy so didn’t enjoy it as much this time. I like Dream and Vision courses. Challenge is a bit of a challenge…. It was pretty and the weather was humid although not as hot…
Garmin Approach R10 Launch Monitor
The Garmin Approach R10 launch monitor is the best launch monitor for the money! Of course there are other launch monitors that are better…for example, the trackman is better, the GC Quad is better, etc. But those launch monitors are $5k or $20k, etc. The Garmin R10 is only $599! For $599 you get a…

Tee Time: 6:44am Players: Philip, Taedeok, Eunyoung This was my first time playing with Philip and Taedeok and turns out they are both good golfers. They are co-workers. I started out well with a nice solid drive on hole 1 (love when that happens!) but my driver was a bit hit and miss for the…

Tee Time: 8:26am Players: Scott, Kyle, Hyun I played Jisan yesterday for the first time and I’m back today for another round! Yesterday was with my previous boss at work and today is with my current boss at work. I guess the bosses typically get Jisan membership at work. I actually forgot my water bottle…

6/19/2022 – The Lakes at Osan Air Base
Tee Time: 5:00pm Players: Youngsin, Seunghun, Jake I was happy to play with Jake over at The Lakes at Osan. We arrived at the base at around 2:45 but the line at the visitor center was really long. Jake and Seunghun also had to get entered into the system so it took awhile. It was…
