Hello, I´m Marta from Madrid, Spain. Sorry if my english is not the best, I need to practice more!

I´m getting married in May and we are going to spend our honeymoon vacations in USA. We are passionate about golf so we really want to play golf at the best golf courses in the US. We are going to visit  New York, San Francisco, Pebble Beach(of course :-D ), Hawaii, Las Vegas and a little stop in Pinehurst to watch the US OPEN!

Can someone recomend us which golf courses we should play?

Thank you very much!

Hi John!

Courses in Spain.. where to start... there are many courses in Spain!

The most famous is Valderrama in The Costa del Sol, but there are many great courses all over the country.

There are great golf courses in the North of Spain, for example, "Real Club de Golf de la Coruña", "Pedreña", and many others.. there are also great golf courses in Madrid like, "Club de golf Villa de Madrid" and in Barcelona (Catalonia), like "Real Club de golf El Prat".

But also in the South, In la Rioja (winery regions).. and the islands! "Canary Islands" and " Balearic Islands", specially in Palma de Mallorca.

Well, maybe is too much information!. If you tell me which part of Spain you would like to visit, I will recomend you the best golf courses in the area.

Hi Greg!

Thankyou very much for the congratulations!

About the motorcycle road racing I don´t follow it anymore, but I used to like it a lot a few years back! I´m curious... why you ask?

I ask because I know road racing is big in Spain. Plus one of my favorite racers is Jorge Lorenzo in MotoGP.

Hi! Yes!, We plan to play there, at Bethpage Black, but I saw that is kind of difficult to reserve a tee time in advance if you are non-NYS resident... still we hope to find a way to play there.. :)

    • so with the driver. Feel more arm  width at A4. keep an in the eye on the ball. The first move from the top is lowering the hands down. Don’t mix that up with looking up at the target as the club comes down from A4 with the body. Feel like I get width with the arms from the chest in the Downswing.

    • Went back and reviewed my rounds this year at my home course to fill out the spreadsheet. Realized I have made at least par on each hole but two that I have bogied. At my skill level, it gives me a new confidence that I can play each hole decently well and strong together a lower score. Great mental boost. 
    • I'm at 330 I think. I have a spreadsheet with all of them in it. It helps having lived in two countries. 159 in the US and 136 in the UK. Then a handful in Europe and a few in other countries (Canada, Australia, Mexico). 
    • First Birdie of the year at Links of Sandpiper in Lakeland Fl, 450ys Par 5, Pulled driver to left rough trying to cut corner, Left myself 194 in uphill, hit my 5 iron to 8 feet. Unfortunately greens were in terrible shape and it was a sliding right to left putt, hit a nasty piece of dead spot and hopped left for a missed eagle putt with a 6 inch tap in for bird.
