Golf Course Directory....1'st post welcome!

Welcome to the best Golf Course Directory! This is my first post and I’m excited to start posting some of my favorite golf courses and hear about your favorites. A little bit about me first. I have been playing golf for about 17 years and am down to a scratch golfer. I currently play what I think are the best golf clubs, Callaway golf clubs! I used to play TaylorMade golf clubs when I worked in the pro shop at a local golf course, but switched about three years ago.

As I mentioned above, I used to work in the pro shop of a local golf course. I did that for about six years and then went to work for one of the biggest golf equipment stores for another two years. Working at that store really allowed me to learn a lot about golf equipment. Prior to all this, I worked at another golf course mowing greens. That was fun except for waking up at 3 am!

So why did I choose to do this golf course directory? To start with, I have played hundreds of golf courses ranging from San Diego golf courses, Las Vegas golf courses, Hilton Head golf courses, Hawaii golf courses, and many more. All too often, I would go play in a tournament and show up a day or two early to hit the local links only to find they were horrible! This golf course directory is designed to point out the good and bad golf courses so that you don’t waste your hard earn money.

In addition to this site, I have started a golf equipment reviews website. I love researching golf equipment so why not put my hard work down on paper for other people to benefit from.

Thanks for checking my blog out and check back often!
