I would consider the following:

Torrey (be careful I think they usually are doing maintenace around the time you are looking to go and since its a muni it usually takes longer for the course get back into decent condition and for the price you'll be paying it would not be worth it)
Barona (get the casino card and you'll save 15% on the green fees - I think this is the best value in town)
Maderas
Coronado (its only $25 to walk any day any time)
Talega (this is actually in Orange County but only takes an hour to get there)
Salt Creek
Carlton Oaks (this is hit or miss - I've seen great conditions here and very poor conditions here, I can't be all that bad if it holds the 1st round of the pga qualifying can it?)

Coronado is one of the best deals and kept secrets for SD golf..there is no residency req. so EVERYONE plays for $25 during the week..think it's only $35 with a cart..BUT it's near impossible to get a choice tee time..I highly suggest to walk on EARLY and get on the waiting list with the starter. It's not a difficult course but VERY pretty as it goes through the bay/marina and you see a great shot of the bridge..very walker friendly.

I'll give another vote for Encinitas Ranch, if you like a fairly forgiving course. Some nice views, reasonably priced, new clubhouse.

Sounds like I'll have to try Coronado as well. Around here it's a case of ... too many courses, too little time .

    • Day 242 4-19 correct hip/chest movement in backswing. Less hip turn more chest turn. Did a bit of wrist arch stuff as well.
    • Day 42 (19 Apr 26) - Spent a bit of time working on maxing torso rotation…hit a few pitches to help reinforce. 
    • Thanks - that was a total surprise…

    • First round at Quail Ridge: 47 + 47 = 94 *Note: It was 25+ mph winds with gust in the 35+ mph. It was also around 58 degrees. I felt like I was out in Oregon. The greens were very firm.  Driver was decent. It didn't cause me an issues.  Irons were the biggest issue. Just low point control was lacking. Mostly on the chunky side. Also, my irons were routinely 20-30 yards shorter than normal. Even on holes with a cross wind, the ball was just dying. We played an extra 9 holes after the first 18, and the wind died down by then. I stepped into a 9 iron, and it came up 15 yards short. I have no clue what is going on. I should not be hitting 9 irons 140 yards when I am hitting my driver 300 to 310 yards.  Warmup didn't give me much confidence. I just kept shanking every other iron shot. I didn't shank an iron during the round. I just felt all out of sorts today. Coordinate felt off.  yea, I have no idea if I am purposely slowing down my swing to feel my downswing piece. Again, I hit a decent 9 iron and lost 15 yards of carry. I hope this is just an off day.
