It feels like it's been a year since we were outside playing a round. January seems like it just drags on. Grab your clubs, there's bucket of balls waiting.

Rockford area golfers now have the chance to start the 2021 season a little less rusty. An indoor golf practice center just opened inside the Rockford Park District’s Mercyhealth Sportscore Two in Loves Park. This space features a driving range and putting green area where you can work on that short game that always gets ignored at the outdoor driving ranges.

To get in a good skill-improving session is pretty inexpensive, too. It's on $7 per half-hour session in either the short game area or the driving range.
