How’s This For The Ultimate Golf Trip?
Most golfers I know take a golf trip from time to time. Some take one every year. It’s usually a group of the same guys, maybe college buddies getting together once a year or your regular foursome that goes to a different location once each summer. But I read recently in Golf Digest about the ultimate golf trip that most of us, unfortunately, won’t be able to enjoy. But it was great to read about it.This one involved two legends, Augusta National and The Golden Bear, Jack Nicklaus. As you read this one, just imagine what it must have been like. Apparently Jack has a golf group that he does regular trips with and this trip involved that regular group. So it starts with the group riding on the Nicklaus private jet. Great start so far, isn’t it.
So they land in Augusta, Ga and head to the home of The Masters, Augusta National. A round of 18 holes on the famed track that looks so great on TV in April. Dinner at the Augusta National Golf Club, then they get to stay in one of the cottages on the property. If it ended right there and they returned home the next morning, it would be awesome! But it wasn’t over yet.
The next day they play the main course again in the morning and then play the Par 3 course before heading home in the Nicklaus jet. And the topper is that Jack, as the member at Augusta National, picks up the tab for the trip. Does it get any better than that?
Wow, a golf trip of a lifetime. Not much more I can say.
