Fathers Day Golfing Roadtrip-Take Dad To 4-States All In 1-Day
Today's Dad has other things on his mind than waiting in line for a brunch buffet. It could be enjoying a peaceful morning with coffee on the deck. A drive with the top down. Maybe just one day without a honey-do list!
If Dad's favorite pastime is golfing, then here is the perfect Father's Day gift!
Here we have laid out a nice day for you and your Dad that will put you on four different 9-hole courses in four different states all in one day. Below you'll find phone numbers to call for tee times and directions.
How to Golf 4 Different 9-Hole Courses in 4 States in 1 Day
Get plenty of rest the night before and carb up because your wake-up alarm is coming early. Have the sticks, a few extra sleeves of balls, and a fresh change of clothes packed for a full day of fun.
