Buddha Plays 18

Purchase here!

If you’re looking for a unique, insightful, instructional and hilariously entertaining book for yourself or as a gift for the golfer in your life this golf season then today’s feature is for you: $10 for one copy of Buddha Plays 18, a $20 value that includes shipping!

There are thousands of golf books, but none like this. In Buddha Plays 18, the Buddha himself plays an 18-hole golf course while the book’s author (serving as his caddy), documents an insightful shot-by-shot account in a fun, yet truly informative and instructional format.

Throughout the book’s dialogue, readers will be gradually introduced to great golf lessons, most all of which are being derived from the basics of Buddhist philosophy. Buddha’s presents an extremely insightful approach as he plays the Enlightenment Country Club course and entertains readers with humor, kindness, logic, love, proper golf technique and above all, wisdom. The result? Lower scores for any golfer of any ability level!

But what can the over 2,500 year-old Buddha teach about golf? Instead of only learning the theoretical "right way" to hit or putt a golf ball, Buddha teaches how to actually perform the shots and putts on the course. Through the use of detailed visualizations (or "seeing" in the mind’s eye), and Buddhist principles while playing a round of golf, Buddha presents valuable stroke-saving instruction to pros and amateurs alike.

So come along with Buddha and his caddy as they play 18 at the fictitious Enlightenment Golf & Country Club, set in sunny California and learn from a true, proven "Master."

GroupGolfer.com & Golf Talk Radio with Mike & Billy "Together We Save!" - Roddy Ranch Golf Club - $27 for 18-holes, Cart and Range Balls & Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa

Roddy Ranch Golf Club

Purchase here!

We’re finally back in Northern California with some Bay Area golf: $27 for 18 Holes with Cart at Roddy Ranch Golf Club in Antioch ($75 Value. Expires May 31, 2012.)

Here’s your chance to play a 2011 CGA State Amateur Qualifier Championship course. It’s no accident that Roddy Ranch was home to this competition, in which 80 of the strongest golfers in the area compete for the title. This course is one of the most challenging in the area, with elevated tees and a winding layout. Undulating greens and rolling fairways across the board make it difficult but fun for every golfer.

A par-72 that measures over 7,000 yards from the tips, Roddy Ranch Golf Club offers two additional sets of tees. Carved from a 2,000-acre working cattle ranch, the course's 235 acres offer a true links-style layout over a canvas of an exquisite landscape. A course rating of 74.5 and a slope of 142 shouldn’t discourage you though — golfers of skill sets ranging from amateur to professional are all welcome to test their luck at Roddy Ranch and enjoy one of the Bay Area’s most coveted golf clubs.

In keeping with its status as a high-profile course, Roddy Ranch Golf Club also offers high-profile amenities to its guests.

Here’s your chance to get that gratifying feeling as you cross it off the list in a big red marker and put your score card in your bag to show off to your buddies


The Westin Mission Hills Resort and Spa

Purchase here!





Experience all the unspoken elegance that this Southern California course has to offer with today’s feature: $99 for One Day of Unlimited Golf with Cart and Range Balls at Westin Mission Hills Resort and Spa in Rancho Mirage ($205 Value. Good Any Time until April 5, 2012.)

Rated one of the top 75 resorts in the nation by Golf Digest, The Westin Mission Hills Resort promises a truly incomparable experience, just southeast of Palm Springs. Both of the resort's 18-hole championship courses feature unspeakable beauty, bent grass greens, preserved natural surroundings and the best of course conditions, making your first decision the hardest: Which one should I choose?

The Pete Dye course was this resort's sole original design, coming into play in 1987. Named after its creator, this course offers the same surroundings as many of Dye's other championship inspired tracks. At 6,706 yards with a slope rating of 72.2/131, this par 70 represents the more challenging of the two. Using visual intimidation and less-than-accessible pin placements, this course will promise problems to even the most strategic approach shots. With undulated fairways and elevated greens, the pure beauty of your surroundings is your sure shot at serenity for these tough fairways.

The newer of the two tracks, the par-72 Gary Player course stretches to a lengthy 7,062 yards with a slightly more forgiving slope rating of 73.4/131. Reminiscent of a links-style design, the Gary Player course gives golfers the ability to run a ball onto the greens with a flatter approach and more wide open angles. However, don't forget to prepare yourself for the hazards that lie ahead, as this course offers wide fairways treacherously scattered with bunkers and lined with unsettling water.

For best results, shake out those shanks at the on-site Pete Dye or Gary Player practice facilities that offer daily golf clinics and professional private lessons. Improve those tough-to-make putts on the well-manicured greens and make sure to take a few moments to tinker with your swing on either of two driving ranges. With such a large and well-appointed practice facility, you are sure to find a serene spot to enjoy your warm up.

When all is said and done, finish up your day at one of Westin Mission Hills Resort's four top-rated dining facilities. Offering a sun-soaked seat overlooking rolling fairways or a mountain view dining experience with a seasonally inspired menu, the options to wine and dine are endless. Tired? Spend the day indulging at the Resort Spa — or, better yet, spend the day at the Spa, then book a room in one of the resort's 500 rooms.

Whatever decisions you make while at the course, The Westin Mission Hills Resort and Spa is on a "mission" to give you an experience you'll never soon forget!

Stretching to the lengthy distance of 6,937 yards from the tips with a rating of 72.2/115, this beauty plays much like a beast, despite its large greens providing a bit of forgiveness to your round. Playing out on 100 percent Creeping Bent Grass, these ample putting surfaces provide the speed and accuracy most desirable for making birdies.

Tucked deep in the Paso Robles Wine Valley, this Rudy Duran and Gary Wishon Scottish design was put together in 1996 to provide a fun and challenging round to all types of golfers. With The Links, it’s in your best interest to stay down the middle, as rough terrain stretches in between each fairway. The best way to score low at The Links is to aim for the well-manicured Bermuda fairways and stay straight. With safe tee shots and a skillful short game, you’re sure to be swinging a sweet score heading to the final flag.

While you may be all ramped up and ready to play, don’t forget that in order to stay straight all 18 — and try to hit some of the longest par-3’s in the county in regulation — you may want to hit a quick bucket at The Links' practice facility. Perfectly groomed to provide you the finest atmosphere to improve your shots, The Links range overlooks some of the course's finest views.

So plan a day to spend playing golf the old-fashioned way at The Links Golf Club at Paso Robles, guaranteed to be exciting as it is enjoyable!

$25 One Hour Private Golf Lesson

Purchase here!

Attention all chili-dippers, snap-hookers, push-slicers and otherwise confused golfers living in the heart of California, now is the time to get your game the proper attention it needs. Golf is one sport where "fake-it-'til-you-make-it" just doesn’t work. You can get off to a good start but without proper knowledge of your swing you will never sustain a solid round for an entire eighteen holes.

So whether your handicap is 13 or 3, we would suggest taking advantage of today’s feature: $25 for a One-Hour Private Lesson with PGA Professional Mike Brabenec at The Links Golf Course of Paso Robles in Paso Robles ($75 Value. Expires May 15, 2012.)

Mike Brabenec, PGA Professional Instructor, lives to teach golf. With years of teaching experience under his belt and buried in his grooves, Mike has continued to pursue further education so he can offer all his students added value, cutting edge theory and new techniques. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner, intermediate or expert, Mike will find out what works for you.

Mike believes in the simple fundamentals of the game. Building a solid foundation and swing motion is a great place to start but don’t think that is all you will be walking away with. Mike can show you easy checkpoints and references so you can coach yourself and enjoy this game forever.

If that is not enough reason to give the lesson a shot look at it this way: If your car’s engine were to make an ominous sound, you would take it in for a checkup, right? Apply that same logic to your golf swing.

Playing alongside scenic backdrops with a frequent coastal breeze, this temperate peninsula course features course conditions primed for playing perfection. With no two holes alike, this course offers its guests the ideal layout for golfers in possession of an avid imagination.

The redesign accents Pajaro Valley’s wide rolling fairways with Monterey Cypress and Pine trees, creating an experience that plays like a game of chess: If one doesn't think a couple move ahead, one's due for a tricky approach.

Laid out amongst surrounding forests and rolling hills, the par-72, 6,664-yard course at Parajo Valley brims with challenges and natural beauty. Drastic elevation changes painted with tree-lined fairways make for a combination of fantastic shots - with both camera and club - while still catering to players of all skill levels.

Famous - or infamous, depending on your take - for its tight, slick and well-protected greens, low scores at Pajaro Valley Golf Club are no easily obtained without a strong short game. A few fantastic, well-placed drives would go far to keep you in contention, but beware, with greens that are known for speed, true roll and utter perfection, this is one occasion you may put your putter to the test.

With its location close to the Elkhorn Slough - a natural habitat beloved by hundreds of species of plants and animals, including over 350 species of birds alone - it's no surprise that the course is intertwined with native beauty. In fact, this rare combination is one of the most oft-cited reasons why Parajo Valley Golf Club is considered a regional favorite by so many.

So whether it’s a planned stop on your way up the coast or just a check-in to your local favorite, play a round at Pajaro Valley Golf Club and appreciate Mother Nature's gift of golf.

Gorgeous seaside vistas will surround you on the island, with views of San Pablo Bay on one side and the Napa River on the other. On especially clear days it is even possible to spot the Golden Gate Bridge.

Reviews are positive: "…the back nine (which are links style with elevation changes as opposed to the older nine, mature tree-lined fairways with small pie-shaped greens...the front has two of the coolest par-3s you will ever see on one nine of golf, one is a narrow look with the green cut out of a cliff wall, the other is an all uphill look over a lake about 210 carry to the green…" raved one reviewer on golflinks.com.

If you’ve been looking for a challenge, you’ve definitely found it with Lost Canyons.

At Ventura County’s only 36-hole golf club, try your luck on both courses and compare the unique character of each. The Sky Course follows canyon ridge lines that offer spectacular panoramic views of the Santa Susana Mountains. The Shadow Course winds along the rolling canyon floor and offers a breathtaking scene of White Face Mountain. With the Sky Course being the longer of the two at 7,250 yards from the back tees, each Championship course is a par 72 with surprises around every turn. However, both courses place a premium on accuracy and positioning, demanding nothing but precise, clean shots from any of the 5 available tees.

Lost Canyons Golf Club is a beautiful, full-service facility that offers a 65-tee driving range, course concessions, full bar and banquet room, fully-stocked pro shop and the most welcoming of staff.

Championship golf near sunny-and-beautiful Corona, California? You couldn't possibly pass on today’s feature: $39 for 18 Holes with Cart and Range Balls at The Golf Club at Glen Ivy in Glen Ivy near Corona ($79 Value. Expires April 15, 2012.)

Etched out of land alongside the beautiful Cleveland National Forest just south of Corona, this course lacks neither scenery nor appeal. The Golf Club at Glen Ivy boasts one of the premier tracks in Southern California with its scenic views and creatively designed fairways adapted from the natural lay of the land. This par-72 beauty was a brainchild of the great Ted Robinson Sr., and it’s no secret that this course is as challenging as it is pleasing to the eye.

The Golf Club at Glen Ivy measures out to a fair 6,673 yards from the tips with a course/slope rating of 73/131. Its four sets of tee locations will vary the distance and the challenge, providing further appeal to the scratch golfer and the weekend warrior alike. You’ll kick off your round with a long downhill par-5 measuring up to 537 yards but playing much shorter than the yardage would have you think. Getting to the green in two is quite possible, but be wary of wayward shots that will be welcomed by both sand and water. Close out the front nine with the par-3 No. 9, which features a peninsula-style green jutting out into water with three protective guard bunkers.

The back nine at The Golf Club at Glen Ivy kicks off with the moderate-length par-5 No.10 and quickly reloads with another par-5, No. 13. Unlike No. 1, this dogleg-left plays longer than its yardage indicates. The following par-3 No. 14 is a signature hole of sorts that requires you to fly a lake and green a shot between woods and water surrounded by strategically placed bunkers. Lastly, you’ll finish how you started: The long, downhill No. 18, a par-4 finishing hole like none you’ve ever played before. With a 200-foot vertical drop from the tees to the fairway, No. 18 boasts the highest vertical drop of any hole at any course in the United States.

After you finish up on the signature No. 18, be sure to tally up the scores at the Canyon’s Grille featuring a wide array of great food and cold drinks from sunrise to sunset. Happy-hour specials on food and drinks Monday through Friday make the weekday round that much better.
