General Event Information: We are delighted to add the Los Cabos Golf Adventure to our 2017 Event Calendar. We suggest that you consider registering early as this trip is limited to only 28 golfers. Participants will be happy to know that Los Cabos holds a reputation as one of Mexico's safest resort areas, according to travel resource Fodor's. Boasting 14 golf courses with several others on the way, Los Cabos has become Mexico s Golf Capital. We do hope you will join our adventure and experience it for yourself. Our participants will stay at the Marquis Los Cabos, a proud member of The Leading Hotels of the World and a AAA Four Diamond rated resort. The Marquis Los Cabos is an all-suite, all ocean view resort, the adults-only Marquis boasts exceptional all-inclusive amenities, immaculate facilities and countless daytime and nighttime activities. Foodies can relish the nightly menu comprised of the freshest local ingredients from the Michelin pedigreed executive chef; while artistes browse the resort s extensive collection of Latin American sculptures and paintings on display. Sybarites will prefer to book a treatment at the newly re-envisioned Spa Marquis, while sun-seekers flock to one of three infinity pools overlooking the water that offers glorious sightings of dolphins, jumping rays and whales. The turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez, dramatic natural beauty of the desert against the deep blue of the Pacific Ocean and gorgeous sundrenched beaches make Los Cabos a breathtaking backdrop for a very special golf adventure. The location is very convenient, only 25 minutes away from the Los Cabos International Airport(SJD), and is serviced by Delta, Southwest, United, American, Continental and more. Although there are no direct flights offered from Florida, most airlines provide reasonably priced flight options with only one stop. We provide transfers from the airport to the resort when you arrive and return transfers when you depart. Our golf will take place on three very different courses from three very different designers. We ll play the Robert Trent Jones II designed Cabo Real, Club Campestre San Jose a Nicklaus Design and the Puerto Los Cabos Golf Course with the front 9 designed by Greg Norman and the back by Jack Nicklaus. All three courses are coastal layouts that feature numerous ocean views and typically the wind is something to consider with regard to club selection.

The expansive all-white lobby features huge archways that look out onto the ocean and mountains.

At present, the club features two distinctive nines designed by Greg Norman and Jack Nicklaus. (Each nine offers a preview of a future 18- hole layout to be built by each architect). Both layouts are etched into rolling desert foothills back-dropped by the Sierra de la Laguna Mountains, with all 18 holes perched high above the Sea of Cortes, the pristine coastline and the resort s marina. The Mission Course, a 3,590-yard, par 36 creation by Norman that serves as the front nine has over 400 feet of elevation change. With its large, flashed-faced bunkers used to signpost the fairways and defend the greens, the layout reveals Norman s fondness for Australia s classic Sandbelt courses. The club s 3,871-yard, par 37 Marina Course, by Jack Nicklaus, features rippling fairways, undulating greens and sculpted bunkers. The Marina Course skirts the new Secrets Puerto Los Cabos Golf & Spa Resort and brings players to the sea at the beach side par-3 15th hole, its target a tiny green tucked in the dunes. Amazingly, all of the holes on both nines at Puerto Los Cabos offer expansive panoramic views of the coastline and sea. A full range of food and beverage (included in green fee) is served at a pair of on- course culinary palapas, complete with bartender and chefs. Visit the Shark s Cove on the front nine (Mission Course) and then enjoy the Bear s Den while playing the back nine (Marina Course).

Club Campestre San Jose, designed by the world-famous Jack Nicklaus Signature enterprise, is home to 18 pictureperfect, championship-style holes of golf. With spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez, canyons and mountains, Club Campestre San José invites you to enjoy the incredible panoramic views, dramatic elevation changes, and undulating championship greens of a first-rate Mexico golf club. Created with masterful precision and challenging elegance, this unique Mexico golf course is nestled in the foothills of the Sierras and allows the golfer to enjoy breathtaking ocean views from every hole on the course. Club Campestre is the first course to use the saltwater-resistant "Paspalum" grass, which means that its maintenance is more effective at local latitudes and under local desert conditions. This revolution in golf course design will make for a brilliantly maintained golf course, year round. With spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez and desert mountains, Club Campestre will offer anyone who plays a fantastic golf experience.

In its current configuration, Cabo Real's front nine, completely refashioned by Jones from a pre-existing layout, provides a scenic, gentle test with broad fairways tumbling down to the Sea of Cortes, notably at the short par-4 fifth, which plays across an arroyo en route to the beach. The par-3 6th hole, is propped up on a seaside bluff, which looking back will reward you with a view of endless palm trees and beautiful white sand beach. With breathtaking holes chiseled into desert foothills at the foot of rugged mountain peaks, Cabo Real s longer back nine presents a great test of golf. Free-form bunkers and small, elevated greens combine with fairways that play along ridge tops, to provide an expansive feel. The 14th hole, at 454 yards, runs along the edge of a steep canyon to a green carved into a precipice at the layout s highest point nearly 500 feet above the sea. The short par-4 17th hole is a study in clean lines. This right-to-left dogleg is punctuated by two large fairway bunkers, a sentinel cactus and a small green benched into the base of a hill. From an elevated tee, the brawny par-4 18th hole is a classic finishing hole that will force you to navigate the crossing arroyo on the right and the expansive lake on the left. Host to two PGA Senior Slam events (1996, 1999), Cabo Real offers a memorable, well-balanced test of golf. Uphill holes generally play downwind, while downhill holes usually play into the prevailing onshore breeze. Jones and his design team artfully contoured the green complexes and containment mounds to mimic the shapes of the richly hued mountain peaks in the Sierra de la Laguna that frame the course.
