Saturday Golfer

Has anyone played at the Ritz in Tucson? It was the home of the match play this year. I am heading down to Tucson next week and have a tee time out there, any tips or thoughts on the course?

Has any played Common Ground since it reopened, I have been meaning to get out there. Here are some of my favorites: The Golf Club at Bear Dance (the greens are like ice) CC at Castle Pines Riverdale Dunes Murphy Creek Green Valley Ranch

I am going to be in the Orange County area this weekend and I have the chance to the play 1-2 of the following courses via a gift card I have. Anyone played any of these courses and have any suggestions? Eagle Glen Golf Club Oak Creek Golf Club Riverview Golf Club Strawberry Farms Golf Club Tijeras Creek Golf Club Westridge Golf Club Thanks!

Thanks, that is one of the courses I was looking at.

I am going to be in Yorba Linda (near Anaheim) for a conference in mid-March and I was wondering if anyone had some course reccomendations. I don't mind paying a little more to play, but nothing ridiculous. Thanks!

Welcome to the area. The Denver city courses will all be near Wash Park, and aren't bad. I am also new to the area and I have found that the City of Aurora course are all pretty nice, especially Murhpy Creek (it is probably 25-30 from you). Fossil Trace is also a nice track, pretty uniqe, it is in Golden. In the broomfield area, Coal Creek is a pretty nice course and I have heard the Broadlands is nice as well althought i haven't played it. You should check out either Avid Golfer, or GolfColorado for some more courses. I have also reviewed a few courses in my blog if you want to check them out.

You won't have to worry about that course getting too wet, it is built on a sand and gravel quarry so it drains really well. I am not totally sure on the caddie price, but the pro shop should be able to tell you. Enjoy!

Enjoy Chambers, it is a great venue. If you don't mind spending some extra cash the caddies out there can be very helpful and possibly save you a stroke or two. Enjoy and bring your camera!

I have been meaning to get out to the Ridge this summer. I have heard good things. Plus I have a free round through Golf Now that I can use there.

I have been meaning to check out Green Valley Ranch and Riverdale. I have actually played Fossil Trace in the past and enjoyed it.

I am heading down to Tucson next week and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations. My parents live on Arizona National so I will be playing there for sure. I have also played the following courses, would love to play somewhere new if you have any recommendations. Arizona National Ventana Canayon 49er Club Fred Enke Star Pass

I just moved back to Denver and am looking for some great tracks to play. I posted about a month ago on this topic and got some great recommendations. I have played the following courses since I got back. I have been very impressed with the condition of the City of Aurora courses during this hot and dry summer: Bear Dance - Larkspur (Very Nice) Murphy Creek - Aurora West Woods - Arvada Meadow Hills - Aurora Kennedy Fitzsimmons - Aurora Any other reccomendations

You should also check out Bear Dance in Larkspur if you have time. I just played it the other day and it is fantastic (Check out my review here saturdaygolfer.com/blog). It is $95 during the week, but worth the price.

I have played of the courses in the greater Seattle area and here is how I would rate them 1. Chambers Bay 2. Gold Mountain - Olympic Course 3. Washington National 4. The Home Course You can't go wrong with Chambers Bay, it is the best course I have ever played, plus how oftern do you get to play an Open course.

Westwoods is a good course, my parents actually live on that course. I think we are going to be moving to the Stapleton area so I will have to check out some of those Denver city courses.
