One of the three courses the Hooked On Golf Blog (HOG) World Tour stopped at last week in Los Cabos, Mexico was Cabo Real. Cabo Real is the work of golf architect Robert Trent Jones II.
Enjoy the Cabo Real photos for now, and stay tuned for my review coming soon!

This is getting sorta crazy now. A year or two ago I documented playing I believe 113 or 118 holes with one golf ball. I’ve got a new record going which dates back to my last round at Kingsbarns in Scotland. Since the 15th hole at Kingsbarns, I’ve not lost a golf ball. I’ve had to retire a few due to wear and tear, but have not lost one. The number of rounds is getting too much to keep in my head, so I’m going to jot them down here.
7/4/13 Kingsbarns, Scotland 3
7/5/13 Carnoustie Golf Links, Scotland 18
7/6/13 Castle Course, Scotland 18
7/6/13 Balcomie Golf Links, Scotland 18
7/10/13 Bonneville Golf Club, Salt Lake City 9
7/15/13 Bonneville Golf Club, Salt Lake city 18
7/18/13 Cabo del Sol, Los Cabos Mexico 18
7/19/13 Cabo Real, Los Cabos Mexico 18
7/19/13 Diamante, Los Cabos Mexico 18
7/24/13 Bonneville Golf Club, Salt Lake City 18
7/25/13 Fore Lakes Executive Course, Murray UT 9
Total (unless I forgot a round in there) so far: 165 holes and STILL counting!
I’ve just uploaded a new gallery of Diamante golf course photos from the latest HOG World Tour stop in Los Cabos, Mexico. Diamante is a fabulous new golf course designed by Davis Love III. The course was built on pure sand dunes and is ranked #58 in the world and #1 in all of Mexico.
The best description my group could come up with for the course is “Mexico’s version of Whistling Straights.”
The site is also the future home of a Tiger Woods course which will be the 2nd on the property. I have some photos of the land under construction which I’ll post soon.
I had the pleasure of playing a round of golf last week in Los Cabos, Mexico at the Cabo del Sol Ocean Course. It was a pleasure playing with the Director of Golf (DoG) Greg Tallman.
The Ocean Course is a Jack Nicklaus signature design with some great elevation changes and some fantastic seaside holes. The taco stand at the turn is world renowned.
I’ve just uploaded some featured Cabo del Sol Ocean Course photos to the Hooked On Golf Blog image gallery for your enjoyment. I’ll be posting my review later so stay tuned.
