Courses: Aria, Billy Players: Jake, Sandip, Jy Tee Time: 1:35pm Since it’s still early Spring, the weather can be a bit iffy…some days are really cold (in the 20s and low 30s) and some days can be much warmer (in the 40s). Sometimes is rains, sometimes it’s windy, etc. So golf isn’t as popular in…

12/12/2021 – La Vie est Belle
Course: Dunes Tee Time: 10:08 Players: MJ, YS, JY My last round of the year! It was cold…not freezing cold but probably in the high 30s so very cold. Ground was mostly frozen so tees were tough to get into the ground. I used some tees that go on the ground rather than in the…

Tee Time: 6:59am Players: Haegoo, Eunyoung, Youngjune Han Sung is a decent course that is relatively close to Seoul.
