Mines La hacienda links course. Can’t beat this view with the rock of Gibraltar in the background. Can’t recommend it enough. Second picture is the bar they have at the turn. Located just outside of Marbella. Any other cool bucket list courses?

Aside from the bad Tee Boxes and my horrid playing, I really enjoyed the layout of Stevens Park last weekend.
My kinda Parkland style course, with a lot of elevation changes.
I’m not sure I would call it my favorite as I’ve only been playing for a year, with a lot of courses I still haven’t hit.
Barnbougle Dunes and it ain’t close compared to the others I’ve been to (so far).

This has been the coolest experience I’ve had.
Burning Tree
Jack’s Point or Cathedral Lodge. Can’t split them
In England, St George’s hill
In Portugal, West Cliffs
Pebble Beach. Absolutely perfect
That’s a toughie…Gearhart is way up there for me. I got to play it this year, and it’s just a special place.
Back in my old home, Quintero is a really scenic desert golf experience with some sweet holes that feature massive elevation changes. Tough track, but one of my other faves.

Whistling Straits, the Irish course ( WI )
Chambers Bay was awesome
Pebble Beach, followed closely by Spyglass.
Geneva National, any of them. I’m not rich and it’s the nicest place I’ve played.
Cruden Bay or Bandon Dunes. Surreal locations.
My top 5 list played so far:
1. Rio Secco, Las Vegas
2. Sono Felice Country Club Mangilao, Guam
3. Mid Ocean Club, Bermuda
4. The Powder Horn Golf Club, Sheridan WY
5. The Links at Bodega Harbour, Bodega Bay CA

That first tee at Wolf Creek is hard to beat for me.
Royal Hawaiian.
The scenery is absolutely stunning, feels like you’re in another world.
Royal County Down
Yellowstone Club, Big Sky MT
Three Jack National
Sahalee for me.

Another cool recommendation is Buenavista golf in Tenerife Spain. It’s surprisingly super affordable and the resort is top notch.

Quivira in Cabo is stunning
Gamble Sands was interesting. It played like a large version of a mini putt course. Very forgiving. You felt like a pro. Had a lot of fun.

Always, Erin Hills. Nothing in sight all day but the golf course.
