Best Golf Equipment Reviews recently took another trip to Palm Springs and had the opportunity to play some of the best golf courses in Palm Springs. The first round we played at was SilverRock. SilverRock is a great golf course and very challenging. Since we have already done a SilverRock golf course review, we are going to concentrate on the other Palm Springs golf course that we played, La Quinta Golf Club.
The Golf Club at La Quinta use to be known as Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta. Nothing has changed with the golf course just the owners! The Golf Club at La Quinta was the host of the Skins game for a few years in the early 2000's. It is located at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains in La Quinta, California, and is a daily fee 18-hole championship golf course designed by golf course architect Gary Panks. There are five sets of tees with the back tees measuring 6,883 yards with a 72.7 rating and 127 slope. It is a par 72.
Best Golf Equipment Reviews loved The Golf Club at La Quinta. During this golf vacation Best Golf Equipment Reviews tried out a new TaylorMade R9 with a special graphite shaft. We hit it good but what was the key to the round was how accurate we were hitting the Callaway X22 irons.

Palm Spring Golf Courses
Hey fellow golfers, let me first start off by saying that I'm saying for the time it has taken me to post this blog. I have been very busy at work. I recently had to go to a class on the Glock guns and found it very interesting. Enough of my police gear talk! This is a golf equipment and golf course site!
So two weeks ago, I took the family down to Palm Springs for a little R&R! It was so much fun. We absolutely love it down there. We stayed at the JW Marriot in Desert Hot Springs. The JW Marriott has two golf courses, Palm and Valley. Both of the courses are very nice for being resort courses. They are forgiving, yet challenging. When we played them they were in good shape considering it was the summer time. What was even nicer is that during twilight, juniors get to golf for free! Can't beat that. Definitely check out the JW Marriot that next time you are in Palm Springs and want to hit your Callaway X22 irons in the sun!
We also played a round at Desert Willow. As we have profiled before here, Desert Willow is a great golf course. It was in excellent condition and is always a challenge. During the summer the prices weren't too bad. I paid $40 at 1 pm and my son was only charged $20 because he is a junior. I think the morning fees are still only around $50 or $60 so still not to bad.
Anyways, till next time....hit em straight and long! Oh yeah, I am cause I got a new shaft in my Callaway FT-IQ driver!

Palm Springs golf course reviews; Desert Willow, SilverRock, Mesquite golf course
Palm Springs Golf Course reviews- If you are a golfer and live any where near Palm Springs you have to get out there to play golf if you haven’t. Best Golf Equipment Reviews is lucky to only be 90 minutes from Palm Springs so we get to play some of the best desert golf courses! In our Palm Spring golf course reviews we are going to list our favorite, best, and not so good desert golf courses in Palm Springs. Here are three of our favorite golf courses in Palm Springs!
Desert Willow Golf Resort
38-995 Desert Willow Drive
Palm Desert, CA 92260
760-346-7060
Desert Willow golf resort has two awesome golf courses, Firecliff and Mountain View. Firecliff is plays over 7,000 yards from the black tees and is a par 72. The Slop on Firecliff is 138 with a rating of 73.6. There are over 100 bunkers and waste areas on the Firecliff golf course so you better bring your favorite wedges made by Titleist golf clubs so that you can escape them! The Mountain View golf course offers some beautiful views. It is over 6,900 yards from the black tees and is also a par 72. The Mountain View is a little less difficult than Firecliff but don’t let your guard down or you will be losing plenty of your favorite Callaway golf balls! In addition to the two golf courses, Desert Willow has a fully stocked golf equipment shop at the resort.
SilverRock Resort
79-179 Ahmanson Lane
La Quinta, CA 92253
760-777-8884
SilverRock golf course opened up in 2006 and was one of the host courses for the 2009 Bob Hope Classic in which Pat Perez won. Best Golf Equipment Reviews has played the SilverRock golf course once and loved it. This is a true challenge yet very rewarding. If you are bombing your TaylorMade R9 drivers then you should be good. Make sure you play the SilverRock golf course.
Mesquite Country Club
2700 E Mesquite Avenue
Palm Springs, CA 92262
760-323-9377
While Mesquite Country Club isn’t one of the premier golf courses in Palm Springs, it is okay. Best Golf Equipment Reviews has played Mesquite Country Club several times. While the course is decent, it is kind of weird. There are six par 3’s, six par 4’s, and six par 5’s. This is definitely a course that you want to bring one of your Ping golf bags and walk.
