Ah, the Ontario golf season—beautiful while it lasts but oh-so-short. As the temperatures drop and the greens fade to white, a familiar migration begins: golfers packing their bags and heading down south.
From North Carolina’s lush fairways to Florida’s sun-soaked courses, the southern states become a second home for many of us northern golfers. And who can blame them? Perfect weather, year-round greens, and a chance to escape the endless shovelling.
Why the South?
North Carolina offers that sweet spot: mild weather, stunning courses, and a peaceful vibe. Pinehurst, anyone? But if you’re chasing warmer temps and championship-level greens, Florida is the dream. It’s not just a golf trip—it’s a winter lifestyle. Places like Naples, Orlando, and Miami are teeming with courses where you can practice your swing and work on your tan.
Tips for Your Southern Golf Adventure
- Pack Smart: You’re swapping parkas for polos, but don’t forget a light jacket for cooler mornings.
- Freshen Up Your Gear: Treat yourself to some new gloves or replace those scuffed-up balls before heading out. A little upgrade can make a big difference on the course.
- Plan Ahead: Popular courses book up fast. Secure those tee times before you leave.
