Hi, My name is Roman, and I have just found this forum while looking for some reviews on golf courses in the SoCal area. Turns out there is a lot more going on here and I plan to get involved! I have just moved to San Diego from Hamburg, Germany for a semester at Uni. I've been out a couple of times but still looking for some people to play with on a more regular basis. I'm playing of a 8.6 handicap and looking to play a fair amount of different courses in the greater San Diego area while I am here. If anybody out there would like to join me/ take me along for a round of golf I would be really happy:) I'm really excited about the presidents cup starting tomorrow which will definitely keep me from studying for my exams;) Looking forward to a good time Roman

Hallo Nicholas, I'm going to SDSU, but just for one semester so I'm not allowed to play on the team( at least that is what we were told). As I have been fairly busy till this point I have not asked if there is a possibility to at least practice with the team- hope I' ll get that done next week. What school are u at? Are u playing on the team ? Roman

Roman, Welcome to SD! I just moved here a few months ago and the weather is amazing! You'll definitely enjoy some of the courses down here.

I have already played some pretty amazing courses: torrey pines north and south Coronado Mission trails( although I didn't get to finish it because of darkness 5$ after 5pm for students) Sail ho ( fun little par 3 course to get the irons and wedges back on track) Going to play silverrock in Palm Springs tomorrow and might get in another round on Sunday( probably one of the military courses as I'm playing with a navy friend) Also on my list are balboa, Chula Vista, sychuan. I'm looking for courses with a good bang for the buck ( Torrey pines at resident rate is hard to beat on twilights) Any help and ideas appreciated:)

Roman, welcome.  I am a newbie as well and am an alumni from SDSU class of '95.   You are going to a great school.  Just wish I had the opportunity to play in SD.  One of my favorite spots while living there was La Holla.  Lived in Chula Vista for a little while, I was in the Navy during that time.  GO AZTECS!!!!

    • I'll say again… you have a different definition of "temporary" and "speed" than I do. For your handicap to go up FOUR shots means you were through the soft cap and approaching the hard cap. If you did it over 15 rounds (leaving five potentially lower scores), then you played REALLY bad golf over that stretch because it's likely that only three or four of the best of those 15 rounds were actually counted, so if the three or four best scores RAISED your handicap five shots (three at 100%, 2 at 50% once you hit the soft cap), then that's some BAD golf over an extended (not temporary) period of time. And here's the thing… play 15 good rounds, or even just EIGHT, and it'll DROP again, even faster. Handicaps still drop faster than they rise, not only because of the way we calculate it (best 😎 but because of the caps. Right… it's not like you're not needing the shots. You're playing really badly, and your handicap is still lagging behind your play.
