• Three Father's Day gifts that will make Dad smile
  My Father's Day gift guide last year was dedicated to my own father. Although he had never played golf in his life, he enjoyed reading my blogs and stories, and told me it was the best Father's Day gift he could have asked for. Dad died this past December, and I had told myself (and others) that…

• Golf Magazine gives Walters Golf in Las Vegas the seal of approval
  I've been singing the praises of Walters Golf in Las Vegas ever since I got my first taste of Royal Links (and its castle-like clubhouse pictured above) in 2011. But don't take my word for it. Travelin' Joe Passov of Golf Magazine is a fan of the three themed courses of Walters Golf as well. Ch…

• The golf world lost a classy gentleman in Ken Venturi
  Nothing against Nick Faldo (I really do find him entertaining), but it really hit home this weekend how much I miss the Ken Venturis of the world. Venturi died this past weekend, just a month or so after another legendary TV sports personality, Pat Summerall. Summerall, of course, was best know…

• LUMINE Mediterranea Beach & Golf Club is the new draw for golfers visiting Barcelona
  I had heard rave reviews of LUMINE Mediterranea Beach & Golf Club so I was excited to finally with the resort this year. Although still in its infancy, the facility has already been showered with praise from international media and industry experts alike for its intriguing vision and authentic atmo…

• Adios, Vaqueros
  "Adios, Vaqueros," which means "Goodbye, cowboys," is where the expression "Adios, Buckaroos" originated. It has nothing to do with anything, other than this is my farewell post. I've enjoyed writing this blog over the past number of years and have had a terrific run with TravelGolf and WorldGolf.…

• Pete Dye's "Teeth" along with his newer golf courses at Casa de Campo in the Dominican Republic continue to set the bar high
  It all started in the late 1960s when Gulf and Western asked Pete Dye to come to the Dominican Republic and find the ideal site for a new golf resort, Casa de Campo. Dye suggested some 7,000 acres of thorny tangled land near La Romana on the country's southern coast. Getting the green light, Dye or…

• Wales & SW England: Golf’s Road Less Travelled (Part 3)
  Pyle & Kenfig, known affectionately to the locals as P&K, was the perfect start to a golf trip focused on true links courses. The road from Porthcawl bisects the golf course, with the front nine on the side of the road furthest from the sea. This nine has more room to play as it trundles up and ove…

• At long last: Makai Golf Club at St. Regis Princeville Resort on Kauai lands Top 100 spot
  I guess Makai Golf Club at the St. Regis Princeville Resort isn't the most under-respected golf course in Hawaii anymore. Three years after an extensive redesign and upgrade of the golf course, Golf Digest has finally named Makai to its 2013-2014 Top 100 Public rankings. I'll have to find a new…

• Conestoga Golf Club: The "Thinking Man's Choice" in Mesquite, Nevada
  MESQUITE, Nev. -- Plenty of Vegas-bound golfers make a day trip to Mesquite to play the most famous course in town, venerable Wolf Creek. I know; I’ve done it myself, with 11 other equally ill-informed golf buddies. Wolf Creek is certainly epic, but a far better value and a course with nearly th…
