I couldn’t help myself today but I had to stop by Golf Town, just to swing a club or putt a ball. I had the whole store to myself; the place was deserted.
Everything was on sale. All the drivers that were hot this summer were all reduced to clear. For example, the Callaway 460 Big [...]

Saving money is the key to why you joined VIP Golf. But it’s too bad for us that our golf season is so short. Some of us pack our clubs away until next spring, take out the hockey equipment or skis and snowboards and take in winter activities. Others who dread the cold, do not [...]
