Neither actually. I have a marketing job that involves going to a lot of conventions and they are invariably in nice places and there's always time for golf. Sometimes my company even picks it up - but not as often as I'd like.

Cypress Point is pretty hard to get on. It used to be part of the Bing Crosby (AT&T;) rota, but got replaced by Poppy Hills because of its membership practices. I went horseback riding (my wife's idea!) out of the Pebble Beach stables and we went through the Del Monte forest and came out on Cypress Point. We rode across a couple holes to get to the beach. That area has to be the most beautiful place on earth. Congrats on playing one of the best!

I been lucky to play alot of really nice courses on the east coast but was recently in San Francisco and went south for the best I have ever played:

You have to have serious connections to get on that course, even those who can get on Pebble for free can't catch a whiff of Cypress. The serious golfers who live out here don't even dream of it, it's that exclusive, so count yourself very fortunate! See if you can play Olympic Club, also takes connections.

Entrada at Snow Canyon (UT)

Awesome choice. Love that place. Coral Canyon is also a nice course down Utah way. Northern Utah has some gems though - namely:

1. Valley View (Layton) 2. Logan River (Logan) 3. Birch Creek (Smithfield) 4. Gleneagle (Bountiful) 5. Bountiful Ridge (Bountiful) (Bonus: 6. Thanksgiving Point (Johnny-Miller-designed. A bit pricy, and not as pretty as the other 5) If you're ever around this way (i.e. Salt Lake), #'s 1,4,5 are all about 20-30 minutes away, and #'s 2,3, are about 2 hours away. #6 is about 45 inutes away. Check 'em out, they're great courses, especially for the money!

So that would involve a "Trip to Bountiful"?

It does involve a trip up this way! Make the extra 10 minute trip to Layton's Valley View Golf Course. You won't regret it.

Let me know when you're coming up and I'll hit it with you!
