Course in SF for a golf tour

[teeituphigh]

I am bringing 14 members to the U.S. Open at Pebble in June 2019 and some are wanting to play a couple of rounds in San Francisco before hand. We will have a couple of free days and was wondering where people would recommend? We will be staying in the CBD and most likely will have cars to travel and will not mind driving to a course.

 

I believe we can get on TPC Harding Park due to a reciprocal arrangement with our course but where else can I take members? I may have one spare day for myself where I would hope to ask Cal Club nicely to get a round as a PGA member but understand this is difficult. I have played Olympic but I do not believe that is an option.

 

Many thanks for the assistance GolfWRX crew!

Pasatiempo

+1 Pasatiempo. Look at Bayonet and Blackhorse too. Imho Harding is not worth it. Boring course and overpriced.

Presidio is a decent track.

Bayonet and Blackhorse is good.

Pasatiempo better again.

Or for something different maybe The Course at Wente Vineyards - a very good Greg Norman design.

Presidio is not worth the money if you are paying the non resident rate.

 

Harding Park is worth it if you can pay the city resident rate. Hot times can be available on golfnow.

 

Half Moon Bay I have played the ocean course a couple of times and enjoyed it a lot.

 

I played Bayonet for the first time a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed it a lot.

 

Wente Vineyards is nice but overpriced imo. I will play there a couple of times a year in the afternoon when it is cheaper. They are one of the few courses open to the public in No Cal that has really nice sand in the bunkers.

 

Pasatiempo is an experience not to be missed. I have played there Thanksgiving day the last two years and I plan on going again this year.

[Chanceman]

Not much to write home about Harding Park - just flat and pretty dull. Presidio is much better IMHO it has some memorable undulations and views. Conditioning might not be as good. Cheaper too whether res or non-res. Wente overpriced? Depends on your budget I guess, I thought it was OK.

You could try Sonoma a very solid track in the Napa Valley which is private but easily accessed by visitors.

Or Northwood which is an excellent Dr Mackenzie 9 holer about 40 miles across the GG.

Thanks for all the help. These are 'extra' day courses for the members not included in the tour so will see what we come up with. Being the week of U.S. Open Pasatiempo is very busy and $325US is pretty steep (or is it)
