Hello there,

 

Fan of the site and frequently read the articles.  Relatively new to posting on here.

 

I love the game of golf and wish I could get out on the course more than I do, but at least my new role keeps me fairly close to the game.

 

I unfortunately started playing late so I know my future in the game is about the same as it is now.  I play for fun and the chance to get out, but I don't take it so serious that I'm watching for the tour players to make mistakes and call it out. 

 

I do think that golf need to make some changes in order to get more people playing and get back to having fun.  Not everyone is a tour player and if you cater to just the elite you will fail.

 

One of the things that I appreciate about this site is the fact that the reviews are informative and relatively unbiased.

Welcome neighbor!

I drive through Portland several times a year.  I have family west of Salem.

 

Have you checked out the other post from Brad in Hawaii.  He's coming to Portland late this month and looking for places to play.  Maybe you could make some recommendations?  Check it out.

Couldn't find it but I can certainly make some suggestions.

 

Bandon is the obvious call out but that's about 2 1/2 hours down the coast.

Pumpkin Ridge

The Reserve is an excellent course

Skamania - 45 mins northeast of Portland.  Very challenging but some absolutly fantastic veiws.  Playing there this weekend.

 

Heron Lakes is decent as well.
