Course History:

This is a gorgeous course that has much to offer golfers of all skill levels. It has been ranked number 5 on the Golf Digest list of the top 100 courses in the world and with good reason. If you are planning a trip to Pebble Beach or you just want to play a round of golf, this is definitely a course that everyone should try at least once.

The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones and opened in 1966. If you're playing from the championship tees this is considered to be one of the absolute toughest courses in the world. The course is home to many tournaments throughout the year and is extremely popular.

What You Need to Know:

Since this is such a popular course, it's a good idea to register your tee time in advance. Whether you're planning a vacation or just stopping by, you're going to want to lock in your time. You can watch the live web cam of the course right from their website to get an idea of what you're getting into before you get there.

The amenities as one would expect are absolutely top notch and the views are incredible. Please use your best golf etiquette on the course and follow all PGA rules. The dress code is pretty strict and collared shirts and trousers are an absolute must.

Playing Hints:

As mentioned previously, this is an incredibly challenging course. Accuracy is going to be the key to mastering it, as well as the right combination of clubs and power. The first hole is a killer dog leg that leads you to numerous bunkers before the green. You're also going to want to watch out for the third hole which looks much like a hopscotch game. You may want to use your irons to go from fairway to fairway and avoid the rough here.

On the thirteenth hill, you'll have an uphill shot so give it all you've got. The green is also uphill, so you'll want to really line up your approach for the best results. The eighteenth hole is no relaxer either, you're going to need to watch out for the trees and the rough which can really throw you off.
