What is a golfer's dream?

A Golfer’s Dream, by Larry Berle, tells the story of how a regular guy conquered America’s Top 100 Golf Courses (following Golf Digest’s 2001/2002 list). Larry has exclusively rated for us every course in the hundred, using our golf ball rating system. However, Larry did not rate the 100 courses against every golf course he has played, but instead he rated them in relation to each other within the hundred. Consequently, in some cases, his rating may seem rather low. A Golfer’s Dream is available in Kindle format and also on Kindle Unlimited via Amazon... click the link for more.

Is Olympic Club overrated?

Olympic Club has a rich history and fantastic views. It's a much play in the Bay Area. With that said, I agree with other reviewers that it is overrated. The land is great as it is all on the side of a hill, with a lot of elevation changes. However, the course is in desperate need for Gil Hanse's restoration. I cannot recall seeing any fairway bunkers on the whole course. The burgerdog at the turn is one of the best halfway house "musts" in golf.#N#April 15, 2020
