Would you rather them not add it and the course close potentially? I'm all for whatever helps keep courses open.

No lunch pale. They have a fricking soccer complex on gardere they could have done this on.

Golf is too classy to have stoners in Bike shorts ruining the vibe.

They've been recommended to close Clark and Howell. So what do they do? They put it in Clark and City Park?

I'm cool with them trying things but they are hiding from one glaring move that should have been made 10 years ago....close Howell.

Don't get me wrong, I will try it with my kid.

As a golfer.. I think it's awesome.. I've played one round of footgolf and it was fun.. Eventhough I believe they should repurpose city park, this could actually provide some much needed revenue and will allow something cool to do with my kids.

Read the article. $8-15

Depending on the peak times and such.

I'm ok with it as long as they repair their divots and ball marks

What happens if you kick it in the pond? What happens on hole 5 at city park? People are just going to send 120 yard bomb kicks over the water?

Is it proper protocol to punt a ball after missing a 5 foot kick-putt instead of throwing your putter? Or just break your own leg?

Well, it's thinking outside the box and might bring in money..BR has a strong soccer community. It's worth a try. They still need to close howell. I'm guessing they are waiting for some old dudes out there to pass away so there will be less political blowback.

yeah, City Park is upper crest. Wouldn't want those kids in Adidas getting in the way of you boys in your jorts and tee shirts.
