Laughlin Ranch Golf Club - Bullhead City, AZ
Sunday, July 15th
Tee Time 7:00am - 7:24am
Includes: Green fees + Cart, Range Balls, Contest & Prizes!
Format: Open Play - No Scoring

Field: 16 players.

Was a great outing this weekend and a big thanks to everyone that came!

I took a chance scheduling this in the heat of summer in Bullhead City but luckily the weather cooperated and the golf course was about as green as I’ve seen a desert course in the middle of the summer in a long time. Fantastic golf experience.

Was great how we had 6 players to jump in the last week bringing our total to 13 players. Linksoul and GolfMoose provided great prizes as usual and some GK’ers got to discover Laughlin Ranch which IMO is the hidden gem of the southwest right now. You can bet we’ll be having another outing here again. Next time likely in the early Spring so those of you that did not participate because of the heat, you’ll have an opportunity to enjoy it with pleasant temps in 2019. However, get up there and play it before that, you won’t be sorry.

Fun way to start the 2017 GK Plays season. Thank you to everyone that came!

Normally we kick it off with a high-end golf experience, this time going with a low dough outing. But it certainly was not a low dough prize table. LOL. Big thanks to Linksoul.com and GolfMoose.com for the bulk of the prizes.

It was exciting to see so many first time GK Plays outing participants. 15 in total. Almost half the outing! Many new friendly faces.

Been reading lots of your reviews already – thanks so much. And I know the golf course appreciates them too.

Big thanks to ringworld for helping me out a bunch Sunday. Thank you to Dconnally and Dcricket for donates some prizes.

Short turn around for our big GK Plays PGA WEST on May 7th. 44 Players. Sold Out. But I am going to start a waiting list. Going to be awesome!

I’m working on lining up a June GK Plays outing. But already super exciting about our GK Plays NoCal outing at famous Yocha Dehe Golf Club on Saturday, July 22nd. Space is very limited on that one. Only 24 spots. Bucket list course. Just $65.

Hey Everyone!

A day late in recapping our GK Plays than normal for me so my apologies. I already read some golf course reviews about the day which are greatly appreciated and instrumental to my efforts to organizing these outings. More reviews the better.
I think we really made the right call having this Sunday as opposed to Saturday. It’s my understanding the weather was very winding the day before and the area was a madhouse with the Stagecoach music festival. Instead we caught perfect weather, little crowds and beautifully maintained golf course.

We even had our 3rd ACE in a GK Plays by Nickesquire (Nick’s 2nd Ace ever).

I want to give a big thanks to Clevelend Golf/Srixon and of course Linksoul.com for the extremely generous sponsorships. I’m noticing many more GK’ers where the fine Linksoul clothing.

Also need to thank GolfMoose.com and Aliante Golf Club as well as other Las Vegas courses for donating twosomes.

btw - thanks stickboy for helping out with the raffle.

Many More Prizes Coming!

Hey Everyone!

Another great outing and I really appreciate the support in coming out! Big thanks to Linksoul, Cleveland Golf/Srixon, GolfMoose and others. That was one loaded prize table!

Desert Willow Resort treated us terrific and their service was excellent. I like the added touch of providing us 15% off discount off any posted rate they have on their website for a future tee time. It was also great of them to set us up in an enclosed semi-private room when they anticipated the rain (although it barely rained). But I have to admit, like most of you, I was disappointed by the unexpected small tine aeration and bunker condition. I was made aware that the bunkers were to be prepared for a May renovation about a month ago but had the impression the bunkers would play very firm and would still be properly maintained which IMO they were not. Seems they had not been machine raked/turned in long time. As for the greens, this was most disappointing. Although in good shape overall, they would have been exceptional despite the recent small tines aeration had they been cut and rolled that morning. I understand the logistics of turf management and wish Desert Willow Golf Resort would have be able to proceed with small tine aeration after our GK Plays or a little more in advance of it. I can’t blame the tournament director I work with on this. He simply has no control over when a minor procedure to the greens it going to take place. Many times a small tine aeration is done with no advance warning.
Despite this let down in conditions not meeting high expectations I thoroughly enjoyed my day. They are great longtime supporters of GK and wonderful people to work with. It’s also a fabulous layout.
Our PGA WEST Greg Norman GK Plays is right around the corner. Less than 3 weeks. There are spots open so please join us. I’ve already called them and they said they won’t aerate the greens until June 20th.

Rams Hill Golf Club - Borrego Springs, CA
Sunday, January 10th
Tee Times Starting: 10:30am
Includes: Green fees + Cart, Range Balls, Contest & Prizes!
Format: Open Play - No Scoring

Field: 36 players.

Originally planned for 28 players, decided to give 32 players a shot and increased to 36 players with not a single cancellation...way out in Borrego Springs CA. 470 miles round trip drive for me from Ventura County yet not as far as Uncleddboy23 who came in from Peoria, Arizona. El Nino decided to makes us a little nervous early in the week but come Sunday it was nice to play golf. The course certainly lived up to its billing, the Rams Hill Staff was super accommodating and friendly, everything about the day was wonderful. It goes without saying Rams Hill is an annual stop on the GK Plays outing schedule.

Thanks everyone for coming out. Big thanks to GK’er AndrewZ28 for hooking us up was so many LinkSoul.com beautiful clothing. Big thanks to Cleveland-Srixon Golf for the setting us up on new Srixon driver and Z-Star golf balls. Thanks to Aliante Golf Club for the 3 comp Vegas twosomes. Thanks to T-Link for the wearable GPS watch. Take a look the prize table pic, man was it loaded!

I am loving our outings so much. Made some calls today already to try to line up something in March.
Want to thank everyone who helped me out and who offered. Special thanks to Hammer74 for being the volunteer photographer. Another thanks to Kviser for helping hand out raffle tickets.

Many of you have already posted golf course reviews. Thanks so much. That is so important to helping me continue to get great rates for us to play. Also I started a new initiative to spread the word more about our outing on social media, #gkplays, if you have not already made a post on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or wherever with #gkplays, please do, it’s just another tool for us to show golf courses and those that support our outings, our support for them…plus so much of the fun we are having!

Note from JohnnyGK:
- When we teed it up here in March, I knew instantly we would be back for another outing, this course is just too pure. What I did not anticipate was how soon. The reason we have returned is because despite the immaculate conditions Rams Hill was in this spring, it’s going to be in even better condition and a more grand experience in January. That’s because the golf course closed from the summer into November for yet more investment in turf enhancements, landscaping and major clubhouse improvements. In addition this outing will be loaded with many more raffle prizes and goodies!

So please make the drive to Borrego Springs so we can bring in the GK 2016 outing season in style!

Our year end GK Event was another great success with a gorgeous golf course in great shape, beautiful weather and of course all of you that participated. I don’t think we've ever had a prize table so loaded down with excellent goodies. Big thanks to AndrewZ28 hooking us up with beautiful Linksoul clothing. Warm welcome and big thanks to Clevelend Golf-Srixon for the donating a top-of-the-line driver and Z-Star Golf Balls. Big thanks to HmtGolfGuy for setting everyone up on Essence water and the cases of water as raffle prizes. Thank you very much to GolfMoose for all the $50 certificates. Big thanks to T-Link for donating a GPS watch. Thanks to Aliante Golf Club, Conestoga Golf Club and Revere Golf Club for the comp twosomes. See the photo of the prize table - crazy!

I want to give a special thanks to Sixpez for once again donating his year-end GolfNomad calendar as prize gifts and all the help provided with photos and raffle at our GK Event.

Normally this event caps off the year and we wait until Spring next year before our next outing. Not anymore, we are going to keep the fun going, so if you have not already saw the Rams Hill GK Plays for January 10th (less than a month away) – please do!

One last thing, it’s very important for me, is for you to write a golf course review of your experience at Indian Wells Golf Resort. The reason we get great rates for our outings is because the golf courses want your reviews. Even if you have never wrote a golf course review on Greenskeeper.org before, make this your first.

Thanks!

Note from JohnnyGK:
- This is a first for GK, we are heading back to the same course we’ve already had a GK Plays at this year...but can you blame us, it’s Goose Creek! Their reseed went very well in October and it’s time to show off the course! Our last GK Plays at The Goose was on a Monday so hopefully a lot of you that missed the first one because of work can make this one. The $55 rate is a big savings on their normal rates (normally $78 at the times we are playing). We’ll have sweet prizes and a GK Plays is always a good time. Come out and join us! Kick-off your Thanksgiving week right!

Hi Everyone,

This was our first attempt at a low cost GK Plays and I considered it a success. Being it was a Friday afternoon on a popular course with beautiful weather, I anticipated not the fastest pace of play. But overall I really enjoyed the playing experience. Judging by the many reviews already posted which I very much appreciate (and so important for GK) looks like most agree.

Have to say after the round was a blast too with most GK'ers being able to stick around. Big thanks to LinkSoul.com GK’er AndrewZ28 for hooking us up with all the great gear and discount purchase cards. Also big thank you to TLink.com for coming on as a new sponsor. I tried out the TLink on the course and found it very accurate with yardage. We’ll have many more to give away.

Something that really impressed me with Green River Golf Club was how accommodating they were. They had everything set up for us perfect making my life easier and what most of you don’t know is they kept the bar/grill open just for us as it normally closes around 5:00pm. Their service was excellent. I even got to talk with the GM and Superintendent before the round.

We had some fun again with pictures and videos. I’ll be posting much of those in the coming days/weeks on our Greenskeeper.org Facebook Page (please LIKE it) and of course here in the GK forums.

I've already posted so photos on the GK Events page.

Hole #16: TimSullivanPDF (22ft, 5in – that hole was a beast)

Sandpiper Golf Course - Goleta, CA
Sunday, September 20th
Tee Times Starting: 11:00am
Includes: Green fees + Cart, Range Balls, and Raffle Prizes!
Format: Open Play - No Scoring

Field: 20 players.

Entry Fee: $95

I was not sure how well received an outing like this, on short notice, high priced and long drive would be embraced. Well 19 out of 20 players and a bunch of fun was the result. Thank you to everyone who participated!

In my opinion, and my review will be more detailed, PLEASE remember write a review…fantastic layout and service but the drought has had an impact on the playing conditions of the fairways and aspects through the green. Although still in good shape overall, having played Sandpiper many times, it’s always been in much better shape. I think the coming El Nino rains are going to have a very positive impact on Sandpiper. We will be revisiting Santa Barbara for an outing coming in Spring.

I want to give a BIG thanks to our sponsors Linksoul for a terrific package of clothing and golfmoose.com for the $100 certificate. This may have been a small outing but it was NOT short on prizes! Also thank you to sixpez for helping out with the raffle tickets and ringworld for snapping many photos. Also thank you to wrangster for snapping pics!

With GK Plays they are not scoring events, but we do closest-to-the-pin on every par 3:

Hole 4: Mattias (34 ft, 11in)
Hole 6: Stickboy (20ft, 9in)
Hole11: DannyAfflalo (13ft, 0in)
Hole 18: Mattias (23ft. 0in)

I hope everybody had a great time! – Thanks again for coming!

Note from JohnnyGK:
- Sandpiper...for under $100 on a weekend morning...enough said. Well, of course it goes without saying when GK'ers get together it's always a great time so make the drive to beautiful Santa Barbara and enjoy this spectacular course on the ocean. Side note, keep in mind although that the conditions of greens, around the greens, bunkers and tees should be fantastic. But Santa Barbara has been hit very hard by the drought so fairways and rough will be dry and not up to typical Sandpiper Golf Course standards.
