Watch the tournament Thur to Sun, then stay over an extra day or two and play the course. There is not a better piece of golf real estate anywhere in the world.
All I can say is I'm glad I don't have to choose between Peeble and the Phoenix Open. One is a great course, and the other great holes, if you know what I mean.
P.S. I live in SoCal. There is nothing in Pomona. Oh well, enjoy the NHRA.
1) AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. I almost always go - it's Thur to Sun
2) Daytona 500 - I go every other year or so. And Daytona speed weeks is on now.
3) 50th NHRA Winternationals - Pomona, CA. Many one time appearances by cars and drivers from the 50 year history. I almost always go.
What do I do!!!??!!
While I'll miss the other two it really wasn't much of a decision...
NITRO!
See you in Pomona!

In my opinion Pebble Beach is over rated. I've played it a lot. the hardest course down there is Spyglass and that's the baby they should have the USOpen on....but no room for hospitality tests, etc.
Olympic Club in San Francisco is a harder course - proven by the USGA statistics. When the open goes there we'll see the differences in scores - that will be 2012.
Phoenix open is a hoot of fun - and the golf coure is "ok"...I had a 69 there last year. On the golf course not in bed.
But until you've expeienced NITRO at night....well you haven't lived.
I have first hand experience on this one. Someone once told me, Nitro Top Fuel cars sound like a T Rex coming through your front yard. I thought that was a pretty good description myself. Enjoy the races channelguy!
