Daylight Savings Time means Golf Season is here!

Tomorrow is the big day! We all move our clocks forward one hour, which means more daylight, which means more time after work to go outside and play some golf!

The weather is gradully improving, temperatures are getting milder so it's time for all you fair weather golfers to dust off the golf clubs and get ready for a great season of golf.

Before you rush out to the golf course after hauling the clubs out of the garage there are a couple of things you should do. First check out your golf equipment and make sure they haven't had your motorcycle leaning against them all winter or some critters have sniffed out that half eaten energy bar you left in your golf bag and eaten a hole right through your golf bag!

Once you have checked out the golf equipment, check out your equipment. I'm referring to your whole body - Have you been active at all this winter? Watching golf on TV doesn't count. You need to start doing some stretching everyday to get those limbs loosened up and ready for swinging the sticks. Getting outside and going for some walks around the neighbourhood is good idea too to get the numbness and some blood flowing back into those legs.

The next step is to contact me and get yourself (and friends and family) tuned up and ready for a great spring and summer of golf! I am available anytime at Olympic View Golf Club for golf lessons in Victoria, BC.

I look forward to seeing you at the course!
