Tee Time: 7:26 Players: Scott, Luke, Jongduk After a long heat wave that lasted about 1.5 months, there was a typhoon last week so it brought a lot of wind and rain. The course was a little wet but the temperatures were nice and cool for the most part. Overall, it was a wonderful day…

Tee Time: 6:20am Players: Steven, Roy, Kyle This was day 2 of our boys weekend trip in Pyongchang. Yongpyong CC is a nice country club located near the ski resort. The wrist was actually really sore after yesterday’s round so I put the brace back on for the rest of yesterday and just rested the…
8/5/2023 – Alpensia 700
Tee Time: 8:06am Players: Steven, Roy, Kyle I had a wrist injury that kept me sidelined for the past 2 weeks. I tore my TFCC (some ligaments). I was in a cast for a week and then a wrist brace all week. I slowly started to practice golf on Wednesday and it was terrible…sharp pain…
7/22/2023 – Ansung Benest (North + West)
Tee Time: 8:36 Players: Dave, Dave’s dad Between heat, rain, and travel I actually had no played golf in over a month. I still practiced quite a bit but it is probably one of the longer spells that I have gone without playing golf (in the winter in Korea I don’t play much either but…
6/18/2023 – The Lakes at Osan Air Base
Tee Time: 15:22 Players: Youngsin, Colonel, Kyle Played with the colonel again and he had a strong first half but had a few bad holes on the back half. I played well overall with mostly bogey and pars and a few double pars if the putt didn’t go in. Overall I was playing a pretty…

6/11/2023 – Recreation Park 18 (Long Beach, CA)
Tee Time: 15:40 Players: Jy + random Korean couple Rec Park 18 is a public course in Long Beach, CA. It’s a decent course but gets pretty crowded and today was no exception. I was able to book a special hot rate at around $33/person including cart so the price was great. Normal price would…

6/6/2023 – Ansung Benest (West + North)
Tee Time: 8:36am Players: Eunyoung, Hyungoo, Hoon This was a nice day at the course. Weather was great and the course was fun as usual. I played well overall but lost my driver swing on the last few holes (I kept duck hooking them…not sure what was up with that). My fellow players were cool…
