I work till 2:30 in Vista Monday through Friday. I am working today and I want to play. I could be in Temucla at 3:15. Do you want to play say 9 holes at Temucla Creek?

I golf about 2-3 times a week and most of the time i golf by myself. Anyone know how to find some people to golf with. I don't mind their handicap just looking for anyone. My friends don'kt golf much so that's out.

I went to the Pittsburgh Golf Show last spring and saw a sign that said, "Are you looking for a golf partner?"  Since I was recently retired and wanted to play more than my regular golf buddy, I thought that I would inquire. When I asked them about finding a golf partner, they asked me what my age was and other personal information.  It turned out that this was a "match making" company that paired single men and women for a golf outing. To make a long story short, my wife said I couldn't find a golf buddy from this company.

I did not read all the posts here so likely someone has already posted this suggestion.  But if I was you I would call around and see what courses have a men's club and join one them.  Most are relatively inexpensive and for sure you'll meet a lot of local golfers.

Why not come out to TopGolf?  There are multiple locations through out the US.

check out our website at Topgolf.com to find one near you.

I hate you.

Kidding!!!!!!!!!!  Welcome to the site Chris!  By the way, if you haven't already, I suggest dropping a line to @iacas and @mvmac (co owners) to make sure you don't violate their spamming rules. :beer:

Now, back to that hate thing. ;-) I've seen your website and your setup looks, how do I say this?? ... Freaking awesome!!!!  The problem??  How come no locations in Socal?!?!?!?!

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By Sammydreep ·

      Yes, slightly. Hitting driver and three wood much better, generally straight or a slight draw, Especially since I upgraded from ping G 410 to G 430. Both clubs have 2degrees more loft. That together with a slight swing  change, improved technology ,definitely getting more distance.  On the downside not hitting my ions as well as normal, pitching definitely improving, especially for someone who got to a four handicap 30 years ago and couldn’t pitch . Chipping a bit up and down, pardon the pun, that was definitely one of the reasons I got to that  handicap when I played many moons  ago, ( I stopped playing for 20 years), better short putter than I was before Had quite a few opportunities to shoot my age, 73, mostly didn’t chip as well as I could when I had the chance.

It is not worth the time to read or discuss-Really. There are bad instructors-He is a worse writer than many bad instructors are bad instructors.
