LESSONS BY JOSH 11 JOSH INSTRUCTION AT THE WHIP Souhegan Woods is offering an innovative approach to welcoming women out onto the golf course. For 4 weeks you can come to the course for 30 minutes of instruction followed by some holes of golf with close supervision. Instruction will proceed at a pace appropriate to each player. During the round of golf, the instructor will accompany the women onto the course for several holes. The focus will be on golf etiquette and a guide through the process of playing golf. The design of this program is targeted at beginning women golfers but may also serve as a great fresher for golfers of all abilities. "Women's Novice League" will be held on Monday Nights starting at 5pm. The cost is $160 for the session including range balls, greens fees, and instruction. Sessions will be limited to 8 golfers.
