Find A Golf Course Near Clemmons for the Perfect Pandemic Pastime

BY JULIE FRITZ

The pandemic has been stressful for all of us. One of the hardest parts has been finding ways to relax and enjoy yourself while practicing social distancing. Everyone seems to be in a situation where they are overwhelmed somehow, and the typical outlets they have been using in the past are not all available. However, golf is one pastime that is a pretty good choice during a pandemic.

Golf can be played individually or in small groups and is an outdoor activity. That makes it a relatively safe choice for social distancing. And, golf courses around the country have seen a lot of traffic. Seasoned golfers are taking advantage of continuing to play golf, and there is a whole lot of people giving golf a chance for the very first time. The big question is whether or not people are going to stick with it. Suppose golf is becoming popular because other activities are unavailable. Will people fall in love with golfing or go back to their previous activities once the pandemic is over? Only time will tell.

If you are looking for a local golf course in the Clemmons area, you are in luck. We have some beautiful golf courses that can meet a variety of needs for any golfer.
