Hello golfers,
Christmas is almost upon us, the kids finish school on Friday and then we are all on countdown to Santa visiting. I hope you are all organised but with the ever changing weather I hope you all get the opportunity to grab a few holes during the Christmas holidays.
Winter Golf at it's finest!
We have seen some extreme weather this winter but spare a thought for the members at this club (pictured), Killarney GC in Ireland, which has three beautiful courses and has hosted the Irish Open on many occasions. All that has survived after the floods last week is the Clubhouse and the18th green of the Championship course.
If you match that against the view from our balcony on Sunday, it is quite amazing. Although we get our share of terrible weather at least you can still get a game over the winter season. Winter work is continuing on the course this week and if we get some decent weather we will return to the big greens.
Final bargains and extended opening hours!
The pro shop still has plenty of gifts to fulfil all of your requests and if you still don't know what that special person wants then a gift voucher will allow them to pick for themselves in the New Year. If you are looking to purchase a gift voucher click here to get in touch and I can even drop it off to your house if you can't get to golf club.
