So TowCaddy was in Los Angeles last week. One stop was the Wilshire Country Club where we had a chance to visit with Dave Menke the PGA Pro. What a beautiful setting for a golf course. It is this amazing hamlet surrounded by the craziness that is Los Angeles. Built in 1919 the course is in the midst of some improvements, though I have to say it is hard to imagine that they could improve a course that is so stunning. While there we met about the Southern California Jr. PGA of which Dave is involved and we are looking forward to becoming a sponsor. It looks like a great program and we hope we can contribute in some way.
Of course golf is always on the agenda whenever we roll into a town. In this case, one of the courses played was also right in the midst of Los Angeles, just a few minutes off west Wilshire, near Brentwood. We played a tiny (and I mean tiny) par 3 course on the VA grounds, it couldn't have been more different than Wilshire. But for what is was, nestled in the midst of everything, it was a pleasant surprise. For $12 you can play all day long. Between narrow fairways and no scratch golfers I have never heard "fore" so many times in my life! But a lot of people were there enjoying the game. And that is what it is all about.Here is a map
