Sometimes, it pays off to travel outside of your comfort zone. For all of us at G Social, golf is not only a professional affectation, but it’s something that we love (sometimes, a little too much, ask our wives and partners). Discovering new tracks is in our DNA; Native Oaks Golf Club is a little gem that we are proud to say is worth traveling the 60 miles or so south of Orange County.

The Dirty Derby at the Beach | Monarch Beach Golf Links | Dana Point, Ca.
by G Socialby G Social“Well, that was different.” That is what people are saying about the Dirty Derby by the crazy guys and gals at Dirty Bird Golf, the irreverent makers of golf apparel, which is definitely not your grandpa’s gear. So, on a beautiful Southern California morning, 50 golfers of all levels of skills, 25 teams of 2 people playing the same hole simultaneously. This is not your typical golf tournament.

MALBON Golf Club is back in action at Monarch Beach Golf Links with its first tournament post-COVID-19 lockdown
by Gabo Garciaby Gabo GarciaAnother great turnout for the latest Malbon Golf Club (MGC) golf tournament. It was held this time at the beautiful Monarch Beach Golf Links (MBGL) located in Dana Point, CA. As we expected, many remain anxious to return to “normal” conditions as we deal with this pandemic, so the fact nearly fifty players made the decision to come out and participate in the first tournament post COVID-19 lockdown, was a great sign that we are adapting to this new norm.

We live in strange times. Things are either canceled, postponed, put away, or forgotten. Amidst COVID-19 worries, the sports world took a back seat to public safety, and one by one, all major sports halted their seasons; basketball, baseball, hockey, soccer, tennis, and yes, one of our favorites, golf. It was quite disheartening to see all tournaments cease, and it extended to all public and private tracks. One of our local gems, the Monarch Beach Golf Links, was not immune to the quarantine, and for two long months, in a glorious spring, the club ceased its operations. For us at GSocial, all avid golfers, it was an excruciating time, which was echoed by people all around Orange County. For those of you who have not experienced some of the best golf in this county, or any other for that matter, Monarch Beach Golf Links is a fantastic track right by the beach (hole #3 is something to behold) at times challenging and scenic, it is paradise.
