18 yrs to the day today, I walked onto Cal Club for the first time asking for a summer job. It has been one of the coolest parts of life’s journey from the people I’ve met to the work that I’ve been involved with and just happy to keep that going 🙏🏽

The post renovation change towards a walking culture at Cal Club has allowed us to finally be removing one of the last two remaining interior cart paths on the entire property…the 1st hole will dramatically change as we wrap this project up in the coming days!

Hard to believe a few days ago I completed my 18th year at Cal Club! Of course I’m biased…But hard to think of many other places as great as this to have done it at! Lucky enough to have worked and continue to work with some of the best at what they do along with a membership…

Sometimes sticking to basics brings the best results. We cut trees down, pruned others. Added some drainage started pulling cores and what was once the weak link performing hole is now one of the best performing holes at Cal Club. #3

One of the most improved holes at Cal Club recently…eliminated the cart path, exposed the hole a bit more with a ton of tree work, micro manage use of PGRs and irrigation leaving us now with an awesome hole to not only play but a nice view to look at!
