Fall is one of those times of the year when people start to realize that the winter months are really not that far off. This makes them want to get in as much outdoor time as they can and luckily there are many different venues that happen this time of the year.

From people going on corn-maze adventures, to find the best crop of sweet, delicious apples and cider to take the kids, family, and friends on a hayride, with looking for that perfect pumpkin in the pumpkin patch at the end of the trip. Yes, Fall has a lot to offer, the clean air, that’s just starting to get a tinge of coolness in it. To the leaves on the trees beginning to change color and paint a magical landscape for us all to enjoy.

But the Fall months is also a great time to continue to enjoy a few rounds of golf before the winter winds start to blow and that white stuff begins to fall. Yes, Fall can be a great time for any golfer that’s looking to take a few strokes off of his/her game.
