Had a great time playing Morro Bay GC with my neighborhood foursome on Saturday. We played 36, paying $79 for the first round & $28 for a replay after lunch. The burger & beers hit the spot, too.

Cool temps in the am, but highs of 68 in the afternoon & some scenic holes made for a perfect day. Course isn't long, even from the blues, but is challenging - especially some of the greens. I'm looking at you, #12. Shhhh, but one guy in our group took a 5 putt!

Both rounds took around 4:20, but felt a bit longer. We did wait a bit each loop, especially around 6 & 7, but plenty of beauty to take in for first-timers..

We had a blast & are already talking about doing it again, so 8 thumbs up from The Chadwick Group.

Snagged the "Back 9 & Breakfast" deal - the perfect way to get your golf fix, socialize with friends, and get home for the rest of your day with family (or football!). And for $27, it's a major score.

Teed off at 8:04 & finished in 2 hours, and didn't feel anyone in front of us or behind, which is a huge part of the experience. The course is in super shape, and being able to soak in sunrise over the driving range from 10 tee is my version of Church.

Post-round, your tasty breakfast burrito is just a short hop down the road at Buenaventura GC. Yes, that's a little weird, but totally forgotten as you unwind with 2 tv's playing the morning NFL games with a face full of pretty great grub..

Look, I loved every bit of it, and so will you. But, do me a favor - please don't ruin this little slice of heaven by booking all the tee times.

When I booked a 3:04 tee time thru GolfNow, I was pretty sure we wouldn't be able to finish the round before dark.. I'm happy to report that our twosome finished before 6pm, playing18 in 2:53!?!

Course fairways & greens were in very good shape. The tee boxes, however, were being seeded (not a big deal) and the sand traps I hit out of needed sand.

I'm a fan of the course architecture and views at Tierra. Being able to play a sub 3 hr afternoon round mid-week is a major bonus. I'll be back.

Got out yesterday @ 3:40 when I saw a $17 rate on Golfnow & had a super enjoyable round as a single.
Guy called the rate a "screaming deal" & he was 100% right.

It was windy, between 15-20 mph, which is likely what kept people away & knocked the rate down. It proved a real challenge on a few holes that were directly into the wind, but I pretended I was playing The Open & clubbed accordingly. :-)

Overall the round was peaceful & pleasant. Course is in great shape & is one of my favorites. Pace of play was 3:20 & shot 75.
