Description

Six people will join Doug Neff and Don Grant on a one day fabulous golfing, dining and fine wine experience in the Sonoma County wine country at the exclusive Mayacama Country Club. Mayacama was created to match great golf and great wine. The golfing experience was personally created by Jack Nicklaus. The wine experience is created by the club's "Vintner Members" who are the owners of some of the most respected wineries in Napa and Sonoma...Harlan, Phelps, Silver Oak, Jordan, Kistler, Marcassin, Araujo, Ferrari-Carano, Dumol, Beringer...29 winery owners in all.

The golf is an experience of a lifetime set in the hills and oaks of the wine country. Jack Nicklaus has described Mayacama as his "favorite inland course", period. His favorite ocean course is Pebble Beach. Mayacama is five years old and is the youngest course to make the "Golf Digest Top 100 courses in the United States" at number 67. The course is not long by today's standards, only 6,156 yards from the men's tees and 6,761 yards from the back. However, the "slope" (the measure of difficulty) is 137 from the men's tees and 153 from the back tees, the most challenging course in California and one of the top three in the country. So bring your "A" game, you'll need it. (Not recommended for handicaps in excess of 18.)

The two foursomes will depart Orange County Airport by private plane on the new Citation Sovereign (NETJETS). The group will leave on a weekday (date to be determined) at 8:30 a.m. Breakfast will be served on the flight to Sonoma County Airport in Santa Rosa, only 10 minutes from the airport to Mayacama. This a classic walking only course, so everyone must take a caddy. Tee off will be around 11:30. After the round, we will have dinner with a sampling of some of the wines from the Vinter Members offerings. The Mayacama website can provide more information at www.mayacama.com

This package is one of a kind, and worth every dollar! Take a look at pictures from last year’s memorable experience. http://web.mac.com/gramusik/iWeb/Site/Mayacama%20Trip.html
