Eva played Gearhart Golf Links on the Oregon coast and loved it so much she went back for a second round. Meanwhile, Kurt headed to Oso Creek Golf Course in Mission Viejo for some tournament golf.

This week on Spillin' the Tee, we're bringing you two very different golf experiences.

Eva takes us to one of the most historic golf courses in the western United States, where Scottish-style links golf, beautiful conditions, and the U.S. Hickory Open made for a memorable vacation. Kurt brings us back to Southern California to talk tournament golf, competition, and his experience at Oso Creek.

We're talking course conditions, playability, value, and what makes a golf course worth playing again.

And of course, we're giving both courses our official rating: Worth the Tee Time, Play It Once, or Leave It in the Pro Shop.
