Seeking Out San Diego Golf Courses

By Elnora McCullough


The beach is always great this time of the year, but so are San Diego golf courses. Be it ocean or mountains or somewhere in between, there is something for beginner or pro alike. You can even play on famous tracks where the major tournaments are held. Compare yourself to the pros, or land that impossible shot to brag to your friends. Year round, you can't go wrong and it is easy to find the perfect game.

Since many locales can be reserved far out, one can try to get into a group or even put on a wait list. Calling the locale ahead of time can also let you find out if there is room for yourself and possibly another person to join you. For the more recognized locations, its possible to reserve a spot and motel at the same time.

Hotels, resorts and courses sometimes have package deals throughout the year. It can make it easy to get tee times, and have a great, convenient place to stay. Several resorts have packages that pamper women while you are on the links. Several also have affiliations where you can try out new clubs, play a round with them even. Many major manufactures are in the area and pride themselves of stepping up your game.

Knowing what your game handicap can allow one to locate a course that will benefit your playing. Check for restrictions on the amount of players and play type. There might be a requirement to play in groups and you might need to be paired up with someone if you went to play alone. Some locations only allow cart golf, some may allow walking.

Dress codes are strictly enforced at some clubs. Knowing ahead of time can keep you from visiting and then being turned away for not having the proper attire. This can keep you from wasting time to find another locale. There is also the option of purchasing clothing on site at one of the shops to be in code.

Tournaments and other outings are very popular. It may be possible to play in something organized during your stay. You can even play on the US Open course and compare your game and scores against the pros. There are also mini tours and specialty events nearly every week. Simply search out California events and you will see many to choose from.

If you want or need a lesson, it takes little to set one up. Rates are usually about the same as near your home. There are also schools you can attend for a few days to work on parts of your game and improve during your vacation. Local knowledge by having a lesson can help your game play and enjoyment factor as well. Pair that up with a club fitting and you can have the round of your life.

Looking for different rounds to play at San Diego golf courses can ensure you have the perfect get away adventure. Look for discounts and other combinations of travel plans to make it a great experience. If staying at a resort, ask to too if they can make suggestions. Maybe look for some brochures to compare courses.
