Golf in January? Bandon Dunes Works Three Years in A Row

Back on the east coast, I usually pack away the clubs in November until April or May but for the past three years, friends and I have golfed the Bandon Dunes (southern Oregon coast) courses in later January. The price is right ($75 per round instead of $300+ in prime time) and the courses are annually ranked in the top 10 public courses in the world.

It's about a five hour drive from Portland to Bandon. We had the extra treat of a sweet sunset going over the Coos Bay Bridge...

and I golfed Bandon Dunes, Old MacDonald (new course opened this year) and Pacific Dunes. We had sun and temps in the 50-60 range and awesome views.

And I broke 100 every time!
