December 25th, 2008 — Arnold Palmer, CA, Vallejo, golf courses
Hiddenbrooke Golf Course is located in: Vallejo, CA
Phone: (707) 558-1140
Website: http://www.hiddenbrookegolf.com/
Course History:
The legendary golfing great Arnold Palmer designed this course and it offers a wonderful challenge for all players. From the dramatic changes in elevation to the tricky greens, you'll have loads of fun at this course. All levels of players are welcome and most find that it is not too difficult to complete the course. Numerous events are held every year and the course restaurant is available for catering events.
Check their website often for web specials to save even more money on their already reasonable green fees. Their special packages make it easy for everyone to afford playing here. The course is open to the public seven days a week and features terrific course conditions. A scorecard is available online or at the pro shop to keep track of your progress.
What You Need to Know:
There is a dress code at this course. Collared shirts are required and no denim is allowed. Shorts are allowed but must be knee length. Lessons are available to all players from the pro staff. Please keep in mind that this is a no-metal spike course. The staff asks that you switch out your spikes before arriving.
You can reserve a tee time online or by calling the clubhouse. They offer several different packages for playing that we'll list below. The golf shop stocks all the latest gear and apparel and The Grille offers lunch and breakfast everyday. You can visit their website to download the menus.
Playing Hints:
If you're using the Palmer tees, prepare for a challenge on any hole on this course. If you're new here, it's best to start on the blue tees and work your way up to using the Palmer tees.
The first hole isn't too intimidating, but watch out for hole two. It's a long par five, but with the right approach, you can birdie or even eagle. Pros will find this hole relatively simple, but more challenging ones are to come.
The fifth hole is another killer that will require the right combination of woods and irons if you want to birdie. It's not impossible to do well on this one but you will need a fair bit of practice to master it.
The sixteenth and eighteenth holes are nearly 600 yards if you are playing the Palmer tees and both offer quite a bit of a challenge. By this point, you may be pretty tired, so the best advice is to give it all you have to get a good first shot and then use your woods one more time to get a better layup to the green.

December 19th, 2008 — CA, Vallejo, golf courses
Mare Island Golf Course is located in: Vallejo, CA
Phone: (707) 562-4653
Website: http://www.mareislandgolfclub.com/
Course History:
This is the oldest golf course west of the Mississippi River and was opened in 1895. It first started out as a nine hole course and was later expanded. Numerous tournaments are played every year at this amazingly beautiful and historically rich course. During World War II the army took over the course and to this day you can still see some of their bunkers.
What You Need to Know:
The course does have a cancellation policy for tee-times. You must give them 24 hours notice or you will be charged the full green fee. They do have a dress code and all players must wear collared shirts. Please note that tank tops are not allowed and the course also has a soft spike policy. In addition, no glass containers are allowed on the course at any time.
All golfers must have their own clubs. Rentals are available. Absolutely no spectators are allowed on the course at any time. Tee times can be booked online or by calling ahead and are available up to 14 days in advance.
The Mare Island Café is open for all meals, including breakfast. You can get their menu from the website. Beer and liquor are served at the clubhouse.
Playing Hints:
The first four holes are pretty straightforward, but the only par five, hole five can be a bit more difficult. It's best to try to power the ball as far as possible and then use a 3 or 5 wood to get on the green from there.
The eighth hole is definitely tricky and is cut in half by a large lake. Again, your best bet is to use your driver to get over it in one shot and then iron out the rest of the hole.
Although the fifteenth hole looks like an easy par three, you'll have to be especially careful to avoid the bunkers on either side of the green.

June 2nd, 2008 — CA, Vallejo, golf courses
Phone: (707) 643-8476
Website: http://www.bluerockspringsgolf.com
Course History:
Blue Rock Springs is actually two courses in one and you can play both for an incredibly reasonable rate. This is a very popular course and we recommend booking your tee time well in advance.
What You Need to Know:
The course has an online tee time registration system where you can get a discount off their already low prices. You can also call the pro shop if you prefer to reserve your time this way. The course offers a very nice pro shop and is a great place to spend the afternoon.
Playing Hints:
West Course - This is a very straightforward course that is a little under 6,000 yards in length. Although there are not a lot of water hazards, the tree lined fairways do present a bit of a challenge for most players. There are a few bunkers but nothing that most golfers can't surmount with ease and a little accuracy.
The first two holes are deceptively easy and it gets a little tougher from there. There is a water hazard near the fourth green, so make sure your approach is cautious here. You'll also want to look sharp on the eighth hole, it's a real killer. The long par five is birdie-able, but only with some practice. The fourteenth hole is bisected by a creek, so you'll want to go a little short with your drive and then iron over for the best results.
East Course - This course has a very interesting layout and they have made excellent use of the space they had to work with. This is a little over 6,000 yards but feels a bit shorter due to the layout. Most of the holes are very straightforward and there are a not a lot of hazards to trip you up. We recommend that novice players start on this course first.
The only hole that may present quite of a challenge is the seventeenth with its severe dog leg to the left. You're going to want to stay right off the tee to avoid the bunkers at the curve. From there, you should have a straight shot to the green. The eighth hole is also a little challenging with a pond right behind the green, so don't overdo your approach here.
