Tee Time: 12:00 Players: Dave, Young Cascadia never fails to impress. This was the first time for Dave and Young and both were very impressed with the clubhouse, cart, course, etc. We had a really nice caddie named 성다현 (?). The course was pretty empty because it had rained the day before and it was…

Tee Time: 7:56 Players: Youngjune, Kate, Maria This was another great round at Gapyeong Benest. Gapyeong has 3 courses – Maple, Pine, and Birch.

4/27/2024 – Asiana (West)
Tee Time: 5:53am Players: Eric, James, Woonchul This was an early morning tee time! We were something like the 3rd team out there. My friend Eric picked me up at 4:10am so that we could get there by around 5am and have breakfast before our round. This meant that I got up at around 3:30am…

Tee Time: 8:40 Players: James, Steven, Hyungoo It’s spring! The cherry blossoms are blooming and the grass is finally starting to turn green. It’s nice! And it was a nice day out on the course.

3/29/2024 – Eastlake (Sydney, Australia)
Tee Time: 12:30pm Players: Ryan, Jono, Jy Eastlake is a wonderful course. We arrived a bit early to get a cart but it looked like they have a shortage of carts. They said that we can get one at 12:15pm so we waited around and was able to get a cart. I initially said that…

3/24/2024 – St. Michael’s Golf Club (Sydney, Australia)
Tee Time: 2:00pm Players: Jono, David, Jy Wow, St. Michael’s is a beautiful course! It reminds me of Torrey Pines in San Diego. It’s along the coast so ocean views from many holes! The fairways, bunkers, and greens are maintained well. I have heard that tee times are difficult to get here and green fees…
