In Full Swing at Sorrento Canyon Golf Center



Sorrento Golf Canyon Golf Center offers a local outlet for golf practice and golfing needs. Practice your long game at the driving range or make your way over to the unique 18-hold put course. This is not your standard putting green but offers practice with fun. Challenging, angles, pitches, and natural grass help in balancing skill with recreation. 
 
Still need some work on your swing? Sign up for their classes and work on perfecting the line of the ball, your hand position, legs, and torso movements. I am somewhat of a slicer myself unless I focus on keeping my swing straight and my arms in the right position. People like me would do well with a class. If you are having any of the same problems you might want to call and check out their rates. 

Instruction mixed with practice is a strong formula for success. Taking a few hour or half-hour classes can make a difference in the amount of strokes (1). PGA instructors will help you master your swing so that you can apply that action uniformly throughout the game thereby shaving points and raising your performance.  

The site also offers a chance for freshly minted Americans to learn the English language better. I did not expect this when I entered the facility but they also have English classes within the facility. Called the Sorrento Canyon English Academy it offers a variety of classes in a nice classroom facility. 

Golf can be an exciting game and can be played in groups. It is beneficial in getting people out of the office and on the course for some social interaction. Nature has a way of settling us down and getting us connected to the world in which we live without all the electronic distractions. Just you, the ball, and a friend or two that spend time together.

Torrey Pines Golf Course Offers Practice Amenities and a Spectacular View of The Ocean



Golfing is one of those sports that takes a long time to master. Recently, I have been visiting the driving range and putting green to beef up on skills I long left die off. Like any sport and activity, practice requires commitment. Torrey Pines Golf Course offers a driving range, 18 holes, shop, golf lessons, food carts, putting green, and restaurant. Plenty of parking is available.

The Torrey Pines course is open to the public and serves the local community in their recreational golf needs. A total of 18 impeccable holes are offered with a picturesque view of the Pacific Ocean. Built in the 1957 it offers one of the best courses in the area and attracts both professional and non-professional players. 

If you are in need of brushing up on your swing and short game you may want to visit the driving range. For $8.00 you can grab a medium bucket of balls and make your way over to the tee off location. If you are as poor of a golfer as me you may need to visit the site on numerous occasion to stop swinging your club like a baseball bat. Practicing the proper movement over and over is helpful in making a perfect swing automatic.
