A part of MT III Golf Media's Black Book series of national and regional course guidebooks, this updated edition of The Palm Springs Golf Guide is the definitive guidebook for Coachella Valley area. Continuing the series' tradition of providing accurate and candid assessments of every area layout, its detailed course profiles are based on a consensus of rankings and opinions, and include a unique five-star Collectability Rating - a course rating method entirely exclusive to the Black Book. Each profile also offers a full range of ancillary information, from a layout's architectural genesis and contact information to its rating, slope, practice facilities and position in current national/state rankings. No other guidebook covers the region so candidly or comprehensively, or with so detailed an eye towards a course's history and design evolution. Thus also something of a reference volume for historians and architectural aficionados, Palm Springs Golf Guide is an indispensable source of information for both visitors and local residents alike. Note: For those interested in broader coverage, the contents of this book appear in total within our larger Southern California Golf Guide.
