So being retired on a fixed income causes one to look for deals here and there on green fees. Yesterday my buddy and I played The Crossings in Carlsbad. It was my first round there and I was extremely impressed. The staff were really helpful, and very friendly which is always a good way to start a round. I am a plus 18 handicapper so shooting a 96 and being 70 was a good round for me. The layout is challenging if you hit the ball long you can clear the hazards. I got into trouble on a couple of holes but still dug my way out due to the excellent condition of the fairways. The weather was perfect. 74 clear slight breeze. We teed off at 3:09 for a very well spent 50.00, and finished right at 8 just before dark. Overall my rating is a solid 10!!!!
