Les Bordes has been a well-known and much sought-after premier location for golf on the European Continent for many years. It has seen several changes in ownership but fi...
Our whirlwind trip sampling the top ranked courses in Germany truly ended with the best of the best. Being one of the older clubs in the country and one of the few Golden...
Hardenberg has the feel of a high-end club with excellent practice facilities and 36 holes of parkland golf. It’s situated in a beautiful area of rolling hills and signif...
Admittedly, I had an idea what to expect out of the Links course at Winston Golf, with that said, if you told me, driving to the heartland of Germany for golf I would run...
In September in between lockdowns we managed to escape The Netherlands for a whirlwind tour of the best that German golf has to offer. An essential stop on this tour was...
I’m going to have to go out on a limb here and refer to Golf Club Föhr as a hidden gem in development. To be fair, almost complete. It has been undergoing a tremendous tr...
Granted this was a strange year for most of us golfers, especially those of us that usually travel extensively and see a lot of new courses. In retrospect the year looked...

I had the great pleasure of a couple rounds at Monte Rei last week. Honestly, it had been a big gap on my resume of courses in Continental Europe, especially with the con...
Cuscowilla was quite a surprise. I didn’t know much about it going in other than that it was an early Coore & Crenshaw design. It’s spread out over a fairly expansive rol...
Last year I had the wonderful opportunity to join a couple members for a first round at Waverely. Although I’m from Oregon originally I didn’t golf when I lived there so...
Gamble Sands is perhaps David Kidd’s return to what made him famous at Bandon Dunes with that minimalist links like approach to golf. Some call Gamble Sands feel good gol...
Wine Valley is about the last thing I would of expected from Walla Walla. Wine, yes, onions, definitely, but great golf, well not exactly.
Boy was I wrong. I drove hou...
