The PGA Tour kicks off the fall series of its 2022-23 season Sept. 15-18 with the Fortinet Championship on the North Course at the lush and luxurious Silverado Resort in Napa, Calif.

California has plenty of options for golf and gambling, and this week the Travel Caddie sets their eyes on the San Diego region, where there are epic resorts and even better golf as the area benefits from the drought being over.

Similar to the boom that the Southwest of Ireland saw about 20 years ago when courses like Ballybunion, Portmarnock, Tralee, Lahinch, Waterville, and Dooks Golf Club started to make their way onto more golfer’s itineraries, Northwest Ireland is quickly becoming the new “go-to” region for a golf trip as you can find equally great experiences all while stretching your dollar quite a bit further. The Travel Caddie has some incredible tracks that you'll want to put on your bucket-list trip.

When it comes to looking for the right launch monitor for you, there are a ton of options out there now and the Travel Caddie wanted to highlight the one that arguably provides the most bang for the buck in the marketplace: The FlightScope Mevo+.
