Palm Springs Golf Trip 2024 day 1: Bubba's Bones & Brews, PGA West Pete Dye Dunes

Been hearing a lot of great things about golfing in Palm Springs so we made a trip out of it with some friends.  
The weather was great for February. 
Usually our golf bags would arrive at the oversized baggage claim area, but in Palm Springs they arrive just like any other luggage. There were so many people with golf clubs. 
We had some time to burn before checking into our Airbnb so we headed to Bubba's Bones & Brews. I chose this place because it was on the way and we could see the parking lot from the restaurant to keep an eye on our luggage. 
Jalapeno Sausage Wontons
Blue Cheese Chips
Bubba's Feast 2lbs of meat and 3 large sides. 
I love a good Western burger, but I also like brisket. So I asked them to add brisket to the Western burger it was amazing. 
Korean Ribs
Brisket Sandwich
Food and drinks at Bubba's was great. We got a message that our Airbnb was ready for us to check in. So we headed on our way. The Airbnb had a heated pool free of charge which was nice. 
The guys made a run to Costco and we cooked dinner at the house. 
The next morning we headed to PGA West. The first course we played on the trip was Pete Dye Dunes. It was around $125 for the round.
It's a gorgeous course the greens were firm and we were informed so before we started our round.

PGA West Club house also has simulators you can rent by the hour. 
We had pizza for lunch and hung out at the house for the remaining day. 
Son and Tom arrived a little later in the day. Tomorrow they'll be playing with us at Eagle Falls.
