Now that most of the country is finally starting to thaw out after a winter that was just way too long it’s time to start thinking about hitting the greens for TRAVEL THERAPY and taking advantage of some top golf specials that are being offered this spring. So this TRAVEL TUESDAY is all about helping you find the best golf deals!

I hate to say that my golf clubs are gathering dust in Scottsdale, Arizona, while I’m living in Manhattan. I hoping to get some desert golf in soon but in the meantime here are some great golf specials in Texas, Florida, Mexico, Cape Cod, etc, worth checking out that will have you saying “FORE” with a huge smile on your face!
