Golfing in Oregon

Rating:
Summary: Excellent book to help guide your golfing in Oregon trips.
Review: I have used this book many times to plan golf outings or trips in Oregon. The author frequently releases updated editions with new courses and course changes. Since my goal is to play all courses in Oregon, this book has been my bible.

From directions to the course to course descriptions, almost all that you need to know is contained within.

Summary: Oregon Golf Gold
Review: In 1990, Daniel MacMillan of MAC Productions, published the First Edition of "Golfing in Oregon" and from what I can see, he's mastered the course! From the first tee (the beautiful cover photo of Bandon Dunes Golf Course) to the 19th hole (the numerous indexes of courses in Oregon) this book hits a hole in one.

MacMillan shows where the courses are by map, geographical index, alphabetic index, and regional index. Each of the course descriptions includes a graphical layout of each hole with yardage information, driving directions, address and contact information, fees, rating/slope, cart and trail information, reservation policy, dress code, winter conditions, and amenities available.

All courses, whether resort, public or private are listed. 9-hole, 18-hole, and additionally, it lists driving ranges and golf specialty shops. MacMillan even included courses that are yet to be completed in 2001.

Macmillin includes personal notes about each of the courses, which is a reassuring touch. He's actually been to each of the courses and shares his personal comments both pro and con.

The book is sized to easily fit in a golf bag and for my money this is a perfect companion for any golf trip to Oregon. It would be a great addition for any golfer living in Oregon or coming for a visit.

Summary: This is my third copy.
Review: This is a great book for golfers interested in a comprehesive list of all the golf facilities in Oregon. It has a full list of all courses, driving ranges, and other facilities. There is a state map, listings by course names and by city names. Each listing has a map to the course, a map of the hole layout for the course, a review of the course and it conditions, and other very usefull information. This will be my third copy of this must have book. I lost my first one and the edition I bought in 97 is about worn out. That's about the only negative comment I have, or is that positive because I use it so much. I also own the Washington and Idaho / Montana copies. Good books all.
