YES... you can play in the snow 5-holes of FootGolf  OPEN Lotsa Phun and a good workout, chubby!   Come see what merchandise is left The shop is open 24/7 (that is a lie, but 9-4 should be safe-ish) Only about 20 spots remaining for the March 2016 trip! Unlimited Golf in Jan, Feb, and March   We are devising a cool challenge game (thanks to Michael Cotton) try to hit all three greens across the frozen lake! Probably in January??? Watch for details in upcoming emails!   Also in January... Fine Print: No carts allowed out for FootGolf this week. The Dutch Auction is coming to a close.  Xmas Eve will mark the end of it. The Mesquite trip is slated for the end of March 2016. It is a ton-o-fun for a great price. Register early NOW. Early registration ends on January 20th. After the 20th, the rate goes up because the boys in Nevada will charge us more. You don't mess with the boys from Nevada. The Spring Pass would make a great stocking stuffer... so stuff it! If y

Looking for a perfect Christmas Gift? We don't have it... but we have a really cool Spring Golf Pass if you can't find anything in our Dutch Auction   Unlimited golf from January 1st until March 34rd Buy it now and we will gift wrap something resembling a box for you! * * * * * Fine Print: Even with the snow on the course the proshop is open for the Dutch Auction. There is still a lot of stuff on the auction block. There is no actual auction block... it is just a phrase. A great gift idea would be to pay for a loved one's trip to Mesquite. Even if you just like em it would be nice. Come to think of it... it would even be a great gift to get rid of someone for a week. Don't forget that you get a comp round at Saddleback if you register/pay for the trip. We still don't have a date for the seminar "How To Run The Bestiest Ever Golf Tournament", but we will have the gathering in January. If you are interested let ROBO know or watch for future email
