Tee Time: 8:21am Players: Dan, Ben, Jake, Dan Green Fee: $150 Torrey Pines is definitely a bucket list type of course even though it’s technically a simple muni course. The folks in San Diego are so lucky to have the opportunity to play Torrey Pines as their local course! My friend set up this round…

Tee Time: 9:20am Players: Dan, Song, Trent Green Fee: ~$50 Chester Washington was once called Western Ave. Golf Course and was one of the first golf courses to allow African American golfer. Chester Washington was an African American journalist who owned some newspapers and publications. The road leading up to the golf course is Charlie…

Tee Time: 9:00am Players: Dan, Song, Jimmy Green Fee: $150 (membership discount) I used to visit this area with my family many years ago. There was a St. Regis right next to the golf course (it is now a Waldorf Astoria) and I liked staying at the hotel for the weekend as a staycation, etc….

Tee Time: 7:10am Players: Dan, Andy, Stephen, Jon Fees: $240 ($200 green fee + $40 reservation fee) This was my favorite round of the trip! I was able to play with a co-worker and 2 close buddies from college and grad school. We had an absolute blast playing this round. We were the first tee…

Tee Time: 9:10am Players: Dan, Mike, Dan, Matt Green Fee: $250 I was able to book a last minute reservation at Spyglass Hill! I called the day before to try to book Pebble Beach but had no such luck. I asked if they had anything at Spyglass and they told me that they had a…

Tee Time: 7:50am Players: Dan Green Fee: $12 This is a par 3 course located in the inner city section of LA. The neighborhood isn’t great but it’s not terrible. At this time on Sunday, the place seems pretty much empty. I showed up, showed the guy my receipt, and he just told me to…

Tee Time: 11:10am Players: Dan, Ben, Alex, Alex Green Fee: $86 (hot rate on golfnow) Rustic Canyon is recognized by multiple publications as one of the best golf courses in Southern California.

Type: Public Tee Time: 7:44am Players: Harry, Youngjune, Shin This course was much better than expected. We booked last minute so I thought it might be a little more run down but it’s a pretty new course with a nice clubhouse. Everything looks pretty modern and new but there are some touches of history here…

Type: Private + Public Tee Time: 7:54am Players: Joon, Ryan, Soo Ansung Benest is starting to feel like my home course. I suppose that’s only logical because it’s the only country club where I am a member. We played east + south. I have actually only played these 2 courses. There is also a north…

Course: Billy Tee Time: 16:55 Players: JY As part of the covid-19 restrictions in Korea, The Crosby was still allowing no caddie bookings for 2 people after 4pm so I grabbed a tee time. We played Billy course this time. The course itself was pretty good like the other Crosby courses but it was a…
