 No. 96 Pelican Hill Golf Club, Ocean North, Newport Beach, CA

Beautiful setting. Many side hill, up hill and down hill shots. Greens were very good but VERY tough to read and fast. Target golf, fore caddie essential. One of best pro shops for women’s clothing. Accommodations (bungalow) - 5 star.

 No. 5 Shadow Creek Las Vegas, NV

Best golf experience hands down! VIP treatment starting with limo transportation to and from the course. Fazio course plunked down in the middle of the dessert. A beautiful, green man-made oasis. Spectacular condition, greens rolled 11 on the stimpmeter, caddie Scott was the best. Warm up and practice area was very nice. Quite challenging, the forward or regulation tees were 6626 yards! Old fashioned, period clubhouse. We were treated as if it was our private club, everyone knew who we were, catered to our every need.  Only negative was that we had to leave!

 Unranked Reflection Bay Lake Las Vegas NV

A side course off Spicers Quest. Beautiful vistas of the surrounding mountains and man made lake. Overall course conditions were very good considering it was the winter season. Greens were a tad bumpy, green side collars were scrappy, bunkers were thin. Biggest negative — net only practice area. The club house and pro shop were very weak.

 No. 67 Golden Horseshoe Golf Club Gold Course Colonial Williamsburg, VA

Typical RTJ course. Huge elevations. Tee boxes, fairways and bunkers (few in number) all in great condition. Greens were in poor condition due to very hot temperatures and little rain. Many blind shots. The par 3 holes were spectacular. Williamsburg Inn was 5 Star, would definitely return for another round.

No. 34 The Old White TPC The Greenbriar White Sulphur Springs, WV

Trademark Charles Macdonald/Seth Rainer course with complex greens that were beautifully rolled. Gorgeous course surrounded by green mountains and lovely homes. The resort feels tired as it has maintained its historical character in contrast to modern times. Pro shop merchandise was weak. Unlimited activities for families and interesting tour of the declassified Cold War Bunker.

Spring Creek Gordonsville, VA

Amended to unranked in 2019. First stop on Spicers Quest. A lovely course in good condition with very green fairways and difficult bunkers. Hilly with many uneven lies. No on course restrooms🤬
