CELEBRATING 23 YEARS OF SINGLES GOLF IN AMERICA Boston Chapter - American Singles Golf Association July 2015 Chapter News 32 members of our chapter just visited Poland Springs in Maine for a golf weekend. I know that the trip was a big hit last year. This reporter was unable to attend, and when I asked for a full report from those who planned to attend, I was told: What happens in Poland Springs, stays in Poland Springs.

Shaquille O Neal is the funniest thing to happen to golf since Charles Barkley. http://www.pga.com/news/golf-buzz/ shaquille-oneal-needs-mulligan-greenbrier -classic-pro-am I bet this has happened to all of us at one time or another.but not in front of a full gallery. Luckily, his sense of humor is as big as he is. Now, that s entertainment! Also in the News: SURF THE EARTH ON THE GOLFBOARD The most innovative invention for golf since the graphite shaft, the GolfBoard is forever changing the way golfers experience the game. Powered by an environmentally friendly lithuim-ion battery, the GolfBoard is an easy-to-ride vehicle that adds a new level fun and excitement for golfers of all ages, allowing golfers to Surf the Earth in a way that feels similar to snowboarding, surfing, or skateboarding. MAINTAINS THE TRADITIONS OF THE GAME Golfing with a GolfBoard, or GolfBoarding as we like to call it, changes the golfing experience, without changing the spirit and traditions of the game we strongly feel the GolfBoard will help bring more interest to golf and as a result increase the number of passionate players to the sport. FAREWELL TO THE 5 HOUR ROUNDS The GolfBoard dramatically increases the pace-of-play. After conducting extensive time trials the average round on the GolfBoard is 2:37! Making it possible to play 36 holes in 5 hours Who s ready to play 36 holes in 5 hours? What do you do on a side hill lie?
