Review - My Bag

Thought I'd give a quick rundown of what's in my bag and what I think of them.  I haven't played a ton of different clubs, so you may need to take this with a big grain of salt.

Review - Rio Hondo Golf Course

Garbage muni that embodies everything you think about muni courses.

Review - Navy Golf Course

I'm sure all of you were on the edge of your seat, waiting for my first CA review.  This is an interesting one - Navy Golf Course (Destroyer).  Navy GC is a 27-hole complex that was recently opened up to the public.  Unlike many courses in SoCal, these guys seem to be more concerned with the actual golfing experience than making as much money as humanly possible, and that starts with disallowing fivesomes.

Updates?!?!?!!?

Sorry for the lack of updates lately.  I've been in the process of moving and I can now say hello from my apartment in sunny Torrance, California!  Hopefully I'll be able to get out on the course soon and be able to throw up a few reviews for the tracks around here.

Review - Crystal Lake CC

Crystal Lake.. there's not much to say, really.  If you're looking to play an average course for an average price with no nonsense, go here.  If you want to get out for a round to practice your game, do it here.  If you want to shoot your best round ever from the tips, this is your track.  You won't be disappointed but you won't be shitting yourself either.

Review - Keller Golf Course

Three words: old man course.  This place was built for old people.  If you hit the ball dead straight, 200 yards with your driver, you'll decimate this place.  If you can poke it out there 300 but you're even slightly errant, you're spending your day pitching into the fairway.

Review - St. Croix National

Ahh, St Croix National.  I think I've played this place at least 50 times.  I've told myself at least 10 of those times that I'm never going back.  Something you'll come to learn about me is that I hate so-called "shot-maker's holes".  You know, the type of par 5 where you have to hit a 4 iron off the tee to avoid the river running across the fairway at 240 yards.  The kind of hole where you then have to lay up into a little bowl as if the course is forcing you to play their beautiful 100-yard approach over water to an island green.  Or maybe the 280-yard par 4 where you have to hit a 160 yard drive and then hit over a 400-foot deep ravine to the green.

To hell with that.
