Field guide
Our field-guide reviews of the best public and accessible golf courses in California — what they cost, how they play, and how to get on.
Public · Moorpark · 9.0
A three-million-dollar public course that plays better than most of the ten-million-dollar ones — minimalist golf, muni prices, an hour from L.A.
Municipal · Oceanside · 8.3
A scruffy, hilly par-65 muni the neighborhood saved from the bulldozers — short, cheap, quirky, and about the most welcoming place to tee it up in American golf.
