LACKAWANNA CO. (WOLF) — On a mid-50-degree day in November, many are preparing for the holidays, others are taking advantage of the unseasonably warm weather to squeeze in another round of golf at Pine Hills Golf Club.
Despite the calendar, the course remains busy, and staff says it isn’t unusual to see their regular golfers out on the greens.
“Well, every time I see someone come in with a golf cart they say, ‘this is it, last day of the season.’ Oh, don’t bet on that, you’re going to have another day, and sure enough, they’re back here next week so as long as this continues, we’ll continue and be here,” said pro-shop manager, Rich Mangan.
With conditions like these, Pine Hills says they’ll keep the courses open until winter forces them indoors.
And for those determined to keep their game sharp no matter the weather, the club also offers indoor golf simulators, giving players a chance to practice their swing in the depths of winter.
