I played Copper Mill in a company sponsored tourney last year. What a sweet course.
I still haven't made it out to Santa Maria yet, but I hear it's the bomb-diggity.

Serious question for all the golfers. Ive never swung a golf club in my life, but would like to learn to play golf. How do you get started without going somewhere and just making an absolute fool of yourself on a golf course? Lessons at a range, just go to a range, suck it up and hit a course etc.....

Some people would say go suck it up. But I would think it'd be nice to have someone helping you with your technique, rather than you getting into a groove of doing something incorrectly. It's preference. Just stay off the course and on the range for a good number of days/weeks.

I suggest you take lessons. It's harder to try to correct bad habits later than starting from scratch. Ask around to anyone you know that plays golf and see who they suggest you take lessons from. Almost every golf course has a teaching pro there.
Start with cheap set of clubs or even better a hand me down or borrowed set. After a year if you are still in to it and have improved to some consistency, then get a nice set.
