Lincoln Oaks and a Name You Remember

Turkey Creek Golf Club Lincoln, California

A public-access club course in Lincoln, north of Roseville, with oaks, movement in the land, and a name that always gets a comment.

The place

Turkey Creek is Lincoln, California: still close to Sacramento, already starting to feel like foothill country. The name does the marketing. The oaks and the routing do the work. It is the kind of course you put on a Northern California rotation and then realize you've been back more times than you meant to.

JW’s personal notes from the round will live here — the funny moment, the people, the 19th hole — without inventing what hasn’t been written yet.
