Ottawa Golf and Travel Show

Checked it out this past weekend on Saturday. The combination Spring like weather made everyone who loves golf maybe think to themselves that golfing is not too far off for us here in the Ottawa area. Golf shows are always great for freebies or almost freebies and this years didn't disappoint. With many 2 for 1 including Manitou in Quebec, Cedar Glen in Morrisburg and more. There were also free green fees for eveyone who entered the door to Mont Cascades/Monte Ste. Marie/ and Smugglers Glen. An added bonus was free oysters on the half shell and mussels from a vendor from PEI who was trying to get people to golf/travel to PEI, which isn't hard considering the courses they have to offer(Crowbush, Anderson Creek, Eagles Glenn and many more). A buddy and I got to demo a bunch of new clubs, including the new Taylor Made R7, the new Big Bertha driver. Really enjoyed hitting a 56 degree forged wedge from Callaway. I would definitely consider purchasing a Callaway wedge very sweet. Tried the Nike Slingshot irons and they were interesting to hit also with an interesting design. All and all a great show. Come on Spring!
