Desert Falls Country Club
Played On 04/08/2018A Desert Classic
Got a lucky late morning tee time on Masters Sunday, @10:42. Nobody there! Hit some balls, then rolled up to the 1st tee, Nobody there! The Marshall said, we have some no-shows, so have at it! The course is fair and rewarding. Careful though, the lake/ponds will suck in any ball that gets close. Had a great 3 and a half hour round with nobody in front of me. The course was in great shape. Every hole had a unique challenge, the variety will challenge any golfer. Arrived at the killer clubhouse in time to see Reed and Rory on the 10th tee box. How sweet is was, great company, staff, food and bev and Masters in the 19th. See you again soon!
Palm Desert Country Club
Played On 04/03/2018Old School Classic!
Got right on, played with a cool local, John. The course was in the Bob Hope Desert Classic rotation for years, so you get a retro vibe. It's a beauty...Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers and greens all well cared for and in excellent shape. A undulating loop, bet the greens will beguile you. Great value, awesome views, what more can you ask for! See you next time!
Pasatiempo Golf Club
Played On 12/18/2017A must play course for any golf lover!
I've been wanting to play this course for decades and finally made my dream come true. The course is nestled up in the forested hills above Santa Cruz and the views are amazing. Just like the course itself, what a layout!! I played a Monday and our foursome had no one in front, or behind us. A rare treat! The course was in great shape, especially the greens. They were perfect and trickier as heck. Now I know what the Pro's are putting on every week! The pin placements were tough that day, because there was a junior tournament earlier in the morning. You'll love them though, but its hard to get the ball into the hole due to the fast speed and undulations that are classic Alastair McKenzie. Like bunkers? You're in luck because there are hundreds of them in all shapes, sizes and angles...good luck...bet you go bunker to bunker like we all did! The staff was great and the facilities top notch. Be sure to ask the pro shop guys about Pasatiempo's connection to Augusta...it's a classic!
Can't wait to play it again!
