In A Time Crunch? Try 9 Instead Of 18

Hidden Valley

By GORD MONTGOMERY, Alberta Golf

If you’re one of those who think a round of golf takes too long, here’s a suggestion — cut it in half. Rather than playing a full 18 holes, try nine holes. After all, that should take about half the time freeing up some time but also still allowing you to enjoy a golf outing.

A recent mandate of Alberta Golf has been to get more people playing more golf. To them it’s about getting out and playing no matter how many holes your round is comprised of. To help you play more in less time, we’ve tracked down some great 9-hole courses throughout Alberta in an effort to entice you to take up the shorter game.
