After working there for almost 2 years and playing that course a dozen or so times you will learn that it is the hardest course of the 3 pebble courses, spanish is the 2nd hardest and pebble is actually fairly simple if you dont let the ocean distract you. Make sure to get a hot cocoa at the turn on pebble and if your staying at the resort make sure to check out the beach club tucked in between the 4th and 17th. take a dip or just hit the hot tub.
You're truly a blessing Garrett!! I gotta say this though, we gotta get SO MUCH MORE of Kendrick on the course and on video! He's a delight, and it would be so cool to get to know that man better! Such a great video buddy!!! High quality content!!
I caddied for my friend in the US Amateur at Spyglass, the fog was so thick unless you knew the course you were done, ugh. Tough course, but beautiful. God bless enjoy.
I’m a big fan and love the content! I played the front holes of Spyglass with my dad during twilight hours! It was too dark to play in the trees so we teed up the 1 st hole again! The pro there thought we were playing without paying!! He was so pissed! I’ve never seen anyone so angry! Once we told him we already paid , he calmed down a little! Those ocean front holes are spectacular! That was 30 years ago!
Spyglass is definitely the best course in the Pebble Beach area. Played there last year. Tight fairways and super fast greens. Enjoyed seeing the old school style video.
Hey man, I walked with you the first 6 holes of this! My best round out there is a 73 tipped out, best I’ve ever played! Stoked you got to go around it again with the rest of the guys, can’t wait to watch it!
Awesome video! Brings me back to when I went last year. I shot an 88 from the tee up from the tips. While it was the toughest course, it was my best round out of Pebble, Spanish Bay, and Del Monte. Can't wait for the Pebble content!
Played there in 2020 (along with Pebble and Spanish Bay). Thought the course was amazing, especially the beach to forest transition as well as the approach views on the back 9. Shot a 76 from the gold tees with a chip-in on 4.
Hardest course I’ve played hands down is Apple Mountain in Northern California. It feels like it’s made from a video game. It calls for lots of lay-ups, narrow fairways, crazy undulations and if you hit the rough, you’re screwed. Such a hard course but fun and naturally beautiful surrounded by the forest
Working here for the summer, spyglass is by far the hardest out here. Played a couple days ago and if you barely miss the fairway it’s tough to even make par! Just missed y’all when the major was filmed, came out a week later. Best of luck!
Surprised this is tagged the hardest course you’ve played. Def tough but I’ve played some others in Monterey I feel like are tougher. Carmel Valley Ranch is one that comes to mind for sure imo. Pete Dye design with wicked designs and greens. Also Bayonet is filthy and the greens are like glass lol. Spyglass is classic tho!
This course proves, you are not in competion with another person, ever....you are in competion with the course. It is alive, always changing, evolving.
Love it! About to post a video of my own from spending a week here with a group. Pacific Grove, Spyglass (x2), Pebble Beach. Spyglass was definitely tough. 84 and 87 for each round, respectively. tough course!
There are amazing courses in Texas, Florida, Hawaii and the rest of the U.S. But nothing compares to the central coast all the up to Bandon. It's heaven. (Maybe Augusta 😉❤️)
I loved this video. And honestly, I think I loved it cause it brought me back to the past with Good Good. When it was just Garrett and Tig. 1 v 1. On a golf course with their phones/cameras. And I was just starting out playing golf. Watching some dudes play everywhere. Working at home during the pandemic. Simplicity at its finest :).
Hey Garrett! I met you and the rest of Good Good at the Dallas/Plano meet up last August, which is one of the best days of my life (I was the one with the black good good hat and gold sharpie). I mentioned that I played both Spyglass and Pebble in March 2022. Spyglass is by far one of the coolest and most difficult courses I have played too. Ended up shooting 79 at Spyglass and 78 at Pebble, both tipped out. Lucky and fortunate to make birdies on both courses. I am so happy that y'all were able to play both courses and can't wait to watch the amazing content from the beautiful Monterey Peninsula!
I grew up in Carmel and played on their golf team and one of the high schools we'd face was Stevenson High School who's home course was Spyglass. I've played the front 9 probably 6 or 7 times and all 18 once because of that. It's my favorite course and it's definitely the hardest I've ever played. I was an 8 or 9 hcp in high school and my best 9 hole round was a 42 and my 18 hole round was a 89.
Thanks for posting - haven’t seen much of Spyglass during the AT&T Pro Am telecast. Looks amazing and yes, tough. Now if you could get on and vid Cypress Point - that would be impressive 😂
Just started watching your video. Number 4 use to surrounded by ice plant which is impossible to hit out of. Also 3 used to be just green surrounded by unraked sand again almost impossible to hit a shot unless you landed in a level area.
Spyglass is insanely tough, but the hardest course I have ever played is the Concession in Florida. That place is absurdly hard, it will be a US Open course at some point.
Totally agree. I played it in the Mizuno Pro-Am the day after the AT&T in 2008. The stands were still up. I shot 81 on Pebble and 91 on Spyglass. LOL. It was brutal.
Played this years ago and did not shoot well. Nonetheless, something to cross off the bucket list. If you ask me, I still prefer a seaside course in HI over this any day of the week.
It truly is gorgeous. Played pacific grove which is on the opposite side of pebble and Spanish bay cause I don't have a G to chuck away... But once you're in that ocean environment, on the course, it's just such a good time. If y'all where there last week wish I got to meet y'all. GGs
I got the lucky opportunity to upgrade from Spanish bay and play pebble beach a couple weeks ago.. what an unforgivable but fun course! As a lowball amateur, the course kicked my asssss. Tons of fun tho
Have played Pebble, Spyglass and Poppy Hills all back in the day. Spyglass is definitely the hardest if the three although I will say that Poppy Hills had some off the chart tough greens (mounding) before they renovated the course in 2014. Pebble is obviously the most scenic and iconic.
Favorite course by mile over whistling straits and Hilton head. Only played it once so I tipped it out and shot 79. I’m a scratch golfer and felt like I played out of my mind. But the course always gets its due
Definitely the hardest course I've played. Was there the week before the AT&T. I was a 6 when I was there, played pretty close to lights-out (for me), and ended up at 84. SO slippery.
That is the hardest course for me, not much room for error. Glad to play it, bucket list for sure, but not wanting to take that on again 😂 kept it under 100 so that’s a win. 91
I played at Spyglass Hills and Pebble Beach in July 2021, (bucket list items) haha shot 87 at Spyglass and 85 at Pebble both courses are amazing, loved every minute of that trip😊
I played Spyglass in the 1980's with a wood driver and 3 wood. One putt bogey on the first, birdied the second and downhill from there. I think I shot 87 which was a pretty good round for me.
I played pinehurst #2 3 months before the open was there so they were growing the rough out by far the hardest course I’ve ever played with the us open setup and turtle back greens
I love how one minute you're getting ready to do a new good good when the last one literally ended today and you finish the video with me and AJ just finished shooting in New Mexico...Where in the world is Garrett Clark?
Me and my Dad played out there 2 years ago. Great course. I was so nervous I shot 9 over on the front but calmed down and shot -2 on the back. I think Garrett could do 65 challenge out there
Please come and tour in Cape town South Afrika. We have some absolutley stunning golf cources overllookng the ocean. Very small greens. You will not want to leave. All the game reserves are closeby. You have many many fans here. I stay in a town called Still Bay in the Western Cape. Our oldest member is 90 years old and he still play rounds between 80 and 85. All our fairways are looking out over the ocean. It will be a very cheap holiday for you as our Rand is R20 to USA doller. I must be Good Goods bigest fan. South Africa is 8 hours in front of USA. So I wait untill midnight sometime to watch your videos. Will love to hear from you. Love your camo hat. ⛳🏌️♂️
Yocha is an absolute gem. But it’s actually quite north of Monterey lol. Idk if you made a mistake or not but Brooks is north of SF. Actually going there this weekend for a bday round lmao. One of the best for sure!
I got to play it a month ago! Only played front 9, super super tough! Like really tough! It was so fun watching this cause although Gm’s shots were a lot better than mine, we missed in the same places😂🥳
Great video. I like Spyglass and Spanish Bay better than Pebble. Hopefully, you guys will play Blackhorse/Bayonet and Jack Nicklaus signature course now called Club at Pasadera (located next to Laguna Seca raceway about 15 minutes away from 17 mile drive. Greens at Bayonet are vicious.
