Golf Season at Promontory Just Around The Corner

The 2011 golf season at Promontory will be here before you know it.  The mud season is fast approaching and when its time to put the ski’s away, there are many ways to get golf ready.

Whether you book a tee time on Promontory’s Simulator, work out with Rob in the gym, or want to play a round; all are things you can do right now.

The Simulator is available everyday until 5pm, and you can arrange a tee time by calling the golf shop at 333-4218, the concierge at 333-4000, or by contacting one of Promontory’s golf professionals.  The simulator offers over 40 different championship courses from all over the world to choose from.  You can also choose to practice on the simulated driving range to work on your ball striking.

Rob Smith, Promontory’s athletic director can get you prepared for the golf season through strength training, endurance training, and increasing your flexibility.  These are all important elements for not only playing your best golf but feeling great after the round, and most importantly staying injury free.  The body goes through a violent action during the golf swing, and it is very important to have strength and flexibility to protect your muscles from injury.  Talk to Rob about developing a plan for overall strength with an emphasis on trunk strength and flexibility.

If you are ready to play a round of golf you can schedule a tee time at almost any course right now in Salt Lake City.  Just a 30 minute drive can have you on the tee at many public courses for as little as $40 for 18 holes.  If you want to play but don’t have anyone to play with, our Promontory golf professionals are always happy to join you.  Call the golf shop for help scheduling a tee time or to find someone to play a round with.  We can also help find other members who are looking for a game.  Promontory members and their guests are also encouraged to join golf professionals Mike Garrison and Tom Rogers in Mesquite, Nevada during masters week for a fun 3 day golf outing.  For information or to register:  Register by emailing Mike Garrison: mgarrison@promontoryclub.com or register online at: http://info.promontoryclub.com/mesquitegolftrip2011

Enjoy the rest of the ski season, see you on the course!
