Comments

MyTi: Gary Panks always has great designs. Play it safe and tough 2 putt. Go for the flag and miss, tough up and down. Great design and playable. Worth the trip for anybody.

Malibu: This is a beautiful course with wide fairways and few trees to deal with. The course is laid out very well, making it fun to play. Greens, fairways and sand traps were in very good shape. Overall fun time.

Bone: Nice Gary Panks design. Can pick tees according to ability, back tees = 7200 yards plus. Greens in very good condition. Challenging par 3’s. This is a real nice place to play. Huge practice green and driving range. Would play again soon.

Stone: Wide open and fair describes this course. It is not a particularly exciting course to play nor does it have spectacular views (although you will see the occasional tractor driving by on the county roads nearby) but it is just a nice, playable course that is always in good condition. No restaurant, but one of the better practice facilities around. It has oversized multilevel greens that will test your putting, and strategically located sand traps which caught more than a few of my golf balls. Well worth the drive, and I did see a spectacular sunset on the way home.
