Featured Golf Course Review:
| Montecito Country Club -- My first course |
| Review by: Trent Adams |
I grew up playing MCC. The main criticism of the track has always been that you never get a flat lie, which is often enough true, but a weak criticism nonetheless.
When typically fast the greens are challenging (hint: everything breaks toward the ocean); on #13, if you don't keep it below the hole, any putt you don't sink will wind up all the way at the bottom.
The course favors a longer driver, and offers plenty of challenge and opportunity for creativity. And you can't beat the view of the Pacific. |

| Birnam Wood Golf Club -- Short , narrow and open for play |
| Review by: Moe Wright |
This little used course is a gem for anyone who can get on it. It was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and it presents golfers with well maintained narrow fairways. Accuracy is rewarded more than distance on this 5,890 yard par 70 course. The views of the Pacific ocean and the coastal mountains are outstanding. The practice facilities are excellent. |
