Tequilla's Golf Road Trip

TequillaTequilla Member Posts: 20,082
in Mariners Baby! + Other Sports
Later this week I'll be leaving on a month long golf adventure around the country (and Canada) where I'll be driving throughout the country and playing approximately 20 of the Top 100 Public Golf Courses in the nation per Golf Digest (from either the 2013 or 2015 listing ... it changes often).

If there's interest, I'll semi blog my trip, the courses that I've played, and any other highlights. Otherwise, outside of a potential taping or two of TSIO Podcast while I'm on the road, I'll be generally silent for the next month or so.

I do plan after the trip is over consolidating my trip experience and creating a website/blog related to the adventures of my trip as well as my general experiences traveling around playing golf and attending college football games around the country.

    Sometimes I love giving fresh meat out there for some of the fucktards to enjoy bashing on how old, rich, and white I am.

    I for one am looking forward to hearing about your golfing adventures. Perhaps the link to your photo blog can be limited to Butler Cabin supporters to keep out the heathens.

    I generally think you are a douche and your posts are tl, dr FS. But I am curious what courses you are planning on playing. I've wanted to go a trip like that for years.

    I've played:
    7 Bandon dunes
    26 Chambers Bay
    39 Torrey Pines
    41 Wolf Creek (the coolest course I've played)
    67 Pumpkin Ridge
    88 Coeur d'Alene Resort
    94 Old Works
    96 Circling Raven


    There are a couple I'm surprised aren't on there. Washington National. Gold Mountain Olympic course. Journey at Pechanga.

    I've played:
    7 Bandon dunes - Meh
    26 Chambers Bay - I bow, one of the places I've missed
    39 Torrey Pines (Scott Peterson)
    41 Wolf Creek (the coolest course I've played) THAT PLACE IS BAD ASS (tip jar to you on that)
    67 Pumpkin Ridge (Meh, Goat Track really)
    88 Coeur d'Alene Resort (WHITE AND RIGHT!!!!!)
    94 Old Works - Less than Meh............ I thought it was really weak
    96 Circling Raven - I didn't get it. It was more like a muni course with great views but hey, if I'm golfing at goat track at least let me see the ocean.

    Have a good time Tequilla. Wish I could read about your blog adventures but I'm limited on Data bandwidth. Safe Travels!

    Bandon dunes is a sweet course. I want to go play the others, but have been limited on time. I liked old works, it's unique and has a cool layout (shitty location tho). Agree on circling Raven, I've played several other better courses attached to casinos. I never got the hype there.

    For private courses, I've played most around the northwest including Sahalee, Canterwood, Overtake, etc.

    What's your list? I'm actually a golf course nerd.

    If not interested, don't pay attention. Not difficult. If people are interested in talking golf and golf courses, what's it to you?
