Where should I play near L.A , ca ?

[Lesterday]

I live in las vegas and would like to take a trip to L.A to see the new look lakers play at staples center, especially  to see kobe play in person one more time. Anyhow, long story short I'm thinking of going In the middle of January on a Sunday night and getting a hotel near by.The next day before I drive home I'd like to get a round in, so my question is. where would a nice affordable course near staples center be ? If not near staples center where could I pull over and get around of golf in that is on my way home ? I'd prefer to leave my hotel and drive for about an hour from downtown towards l.v then stop to play.

I'm looking to spend less than 60 bucks for a tee time (around 10 or 11 am)

I really don't know the area so some suggestion would be appreciated.

In the $60 range near L.A. I'd say Rustic Canyon.

Rustic Canyon was my first thought but it's not at all in line with the OP's plans. It's at least 90 minutes in the wrong direction from downtown LA. My suggestion would be either of the courses at Industry Hills in City of Industry off of the 60 Freeway. There are also some nice courses out in Riverside. It's about $80.00 during the week to play the Eisenhower course.

If you are driving from Las Vegas to LA, then I would pick one of the following - either of these courses could be played on your way back toward Las Vegas:

1.) Goose Creek Golf Club

2.) Oak Quarry

Both courses are well maintained and affordable.

Thanks for all the suggestions, so far Oak Quarry looks like a winner.
