Mother's Day Gift - Health

For Mother’s Day, give the gift of health by making it easier for “Mom” to get out and walk the course.

Numerous studies over the years have documented the health benefits of walking the course. Now more than ever, more are realizing that one need not choose between the golf game and the exercise class. The golf game can indeed be the exercise class.

A study found that walking a round of golf offers the same benefits as a step-aerobics class. Another study documents that 2 rounds of golf per week puts one over the 2500 calories burned per week goal/threshold.

There are many products available to make walking the course easier today than ever before to  include lightweight golf bags with dual shoulder straps and push carts that carry the load and let the golfer simply push it along.

So, this year, give "Mom" a gift that will keep on giving - the gift of better health.
