Saticoy Country Club -- *Best kept secret in Ventura County*
Review by: Uel Leite	SCC is the best golf course I've played in Ventura County. Surprisingly, it seems to be the best kept secret as well. While it is not as immaculate as Sherwood Country Club or Spanish Hills, it's layout is superior. #17 is one of the most exciting par 4's I've ever played - in both asthetics and difficulty. The golf course is mature with lightning quick greens. I've heard that Fred Couples went to Saticoy when preparing for Augusta. Every par 3 and par 5 on the golf course could be a signature hole anywhere else. SCC's strongest course feature is the use of elevation changes - no blind shots. There are only 3 or 4 "average" holes. It's not a surprise that the USGA chose it for US Open qualifying. If you get an opportunity to play SCC, don't pass it up. I recommend playing with a member who knows which side of the green to target. Perhaps in the near future, I will be lucky enough to do somebody that favor.

Cerritos Ironwood Golf Course -- *Properly name*
Review by: Miguel	Well mantain, friendly staff, and the perfect place to work on your short game and hit your irons. Fairways are mostly narrow as they are lined with trees and every green is protected by bunkers. So far my favorite nine hole course in the North Orange County, South L.A. County area, you should visit.

Philipsburg Country Club
"Great little secret in Central PA"
This is a very hilly course that is not too long. The greens are small and will yield many 3 putts if you are in the wrong spot. There are a lot of risk reward holes to make birdies or double bogeys. With small fast greens and the hilly terain, anything around par is a great score the average player with a 14 handicap should expect to play around 83 golf. Well maintaned golf course, good food and service in the dinning room. The pro shop staff is very professional and accomidating. The best thing is the cheap cart(highly reccomend to take one) and green fees less then $40 a player. This is my second favorite thing to do on a Penn State football weekend, of course the Nittany Lions are the first thing.

Spring Creek Golf Course
"short but challenging"
This course is short with the lonest hole being 440 yards. Water comes in to play on 5 holes. There are sand traps on most of the holes. The course is in good condition. Great for begginers of high handicappers.
