Enjoy Your Favorite Sport Rain or Shine

Spend an hour or two watching The Masters or the PGA Tour, and you begin to feel that too much time has passed since you swung a club. You look out the window and see snowflakes carpeting the sidewalk. Checking the forecast makes you wonder if you’ll see the greens before spring.
