Is your range open in the winter (cool season grass territory) OT
« on: December 19, 2009, 05:53:43 PM »


I went to the golf course to buy my son something for Christmas and I was surprised to find the range was open.
It was -7 degrees last week.  I am sure the super is not too excited about this and the current recouperative potential is quite minimal.
Golf anytime is a good thing.    I think the pro, Jason Young, was on his way to give him a lesson.  Perhaps on extension.

Happy Holidays

-7? That means great feedback on off-centre iron shots  ;D

These are heated.  The nets gather the range balls.  It works pretty well except in a south wind:

My club has a patio that looks out over the 18th hole that we cover and heat during the winter so guys can hit balls out on to the 18th fairway.  It's a great way to spend a winter afternoon and really beats hitting into nets.
