November 12th, 2008 — Antelope, CA, enforce pace of play, golf courses, members only
Antelope Green Golf Course is located in: Antelope, CA
Phone: (916)334-5764
Website: http://www.antelopegreensgolf.com
Course History:
This beautiful course is tucked away in Antelope, CA (we've included directions below) and it is definitely one that area players need to visit at least once. It offers a rare combination of absolute beauty with a great challenge for players of all skill levels. Professionals find that it offers just the right touch of a challenge while novices don't feel overwhelmed. It may take a few tries to master this one, but it's well worth the time.
What You Need to Know:
The course does ask that players observe the usual dress code by wearing a collared shirt and slacks. They do also enforce a pace of play rule, so you won't want to dilly-dally on the course. They have a golfer's creed that we recommend reviewing before you visit the course to see the rest of their regulations.
The club does have a membership policy, but you can find their application right on their site. It's easy enough to join and you get plenty of benefits in exchange. The course is home to numerous events and tournaments throughout the year and it's a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon. The pro shop is well stocked and the club house is a favorite destination for many.
Playing Hints:
The first hole is a deceptive par three that looks easy until you get into the center of it. You're going to want to carefully place your drive to get the best score. The majority of this course is made up of challenging par threes that will make it difficult to get par unless you are very careful. The name of the game is definitely accuracy when you are playing this course.
The par fours are great places to try to make up your score. You'll have plenty of chances for a birdie, especially on holes eight, nine and eleven. These are great places to make up for any damage that was done on the front nine. For the back nine, you'll be dealing with even more par threes, so don't lose your edge. Pay special attention to the eighteenth hole here, it is a real killer.

September 16th, 2008 — NV, Robert Trent Jones, Sparks, golf courses, members only, public course, restaurant
The Resort at Red Hawk is located near Sparks, NV
Phone: 775.626.6000
Website: http://www.resortatredhawk.com
Course History:
This is a gorgeous course that was designed by Robert Trent Jones. By far one of the prettiest courses in the California/Nevada area, it is a pleasure to play no matter what your skill level may be. The course stretches out over 7000 yards and includes more than 100 bunkers to test your skills. The greens are made with A4 bent grass and offer a great challenge without being too intimidating.
What You Need to Know:
Tee times can be reserved by calling the number listed above. You can reserve your time up to 14 days in advance. This facility has quite a bit to offer, whether you are a guest at the resort or just playing on the course. Guests should remember that there is a separate course for members only, but the public Lakes course, which is being reviewed here, offers top notch amenities and some really great prices.
The practice facility is one of the best in the region and the club grill is well worth the trip alone. The true piece de resistance however is the pro shop that has much to offer any golfer. We recommend wearing standard golfing attire at this course, even though it is technically public, simply because the atmosphere really calls for that kind of respect.
Playing Hints:
As we mentioned above, you'll be dealing with more than 100 bunkers, so you'll want to dust off that sandwedge if you're not very accurate. This is a course that is not particularly difficult if you are good at placing the ball right where you want it. Otherwise, it can be a bit hard, but it is so beautiful, you'll barely notice.
There is one massive lake that will make the holes 13 - 17 much more interesting. Try to go a little to the left to make up for the pull of the water. The are a few other small lakes, but nothing that you won't be able to handle.
