Happy golfing holidays, and more local golf news
Winter is a sneaky great time to play golf. There might be frost at Windsor Golf Club in the morning but it will usually thaw by 9 a.m. If you tee off by 10 a.m. you’ll play during the warmest part of the day and be finished with 18 holes by 2:30 p.m. What’s a better way to spend a day in Sonoma County? You’ll see a few hot air balloons, beautiful birds and putt on absolutely manicured greens. Call for a tee time today at 838-7888.
