Sorry. I should have mentioned I will be driving back from Bandon Dunes to Portland and stopping to visit a friend in Eugene for a few days.
He will be working during the day so I figured I could find a nice place to play
(I know. I know. It will be a let down after Bandon Dunes............but..............something fun to spend the time)

Tokatee Golf Club , on the gorgeous Mackenzie River Directions - It would probably take you about 40 to 50 minutes to get there from Eugene but it is WELL worth it. This course is a favorite for many Oregonians.

Diamond Woods , 15 minutes from downtown Eugene - Directions

I've played both of these courses multiple times, and they are fabulous. You can see pictures I took on my iPhone while playing Diamond Woods here .

Both courses will only set you back around $35 to $40 depending on when you play.

Tokatee:



I've heard favorable comments about Emerald Valley and Riverridge, which are actually in Eugene, but I've never played them.

What's in my bag:
Cleveland Hibore XLS Monster Driver
TourEdge Exotics 2,3,4 hybrid irons
Tommy Armour 845cs Silverbacks 5-PW
Assorted wedges, Ping Scottsdale Anser

Ditto on the Diamond Woods recommendation.

Other ideas include:

Trysting Tree in Corvallis.

Go to Eugene via Florence and play Sandpines.

Best Option. Find a way to play Eugene Country Club. Used to be on Golf Digest's Top 100 and considered one of the best in Oregon. It would not be a letdown!

Enjoy your Trip!

I'm not sure why I didn't include Trysting. I live in Corvallis and play it frequently. It's a tough track (esp. the back 9) and not as scenic as Tokatee or Diamond Woods but a great course all the same.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 51 (yesterday was 50, not 59 -- that was a typo).  I didn't have a ton of time today.  I hit a dozen balls with a 6-iron in my practice room.   Amazingly, after this I did the ShotScope analysis of yesterday's round;  my approach play was at the 5 hcp level.  That's pretty darn good, but unfortunately for my score, some of that came from hitting a few good recovery shots.  But I also hit some really good approach shots that weren't from trouble!

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By JetFan1983 · Posted

      Shot a 37 today! Palmer Course, PGA National. Really fun. 6/9 GIR, no lost balls. The double and the bogey were both three putts from like 35 feet or so.  The birdie at the last was really fun. I stood over that fifteen footer and thought wow I’m really about to make this, aren’t I? And I hearted it. Really fun. It’s like 9000 degrees outside but I battled through it well. Good times.

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      I had been in a bit of a slump for the month of June. Handicap index has slowly risen, and there were few sub-80 scores. Today was a different story at Leslie Park GC. Lots of solid shots, GIR's, up & downs, for a 77 (7.8 differential). As with most rounds, there were a few loose shots and crappy putts, but it was a good day.
