Course Details
Bala Golf Club is a private Philadelphia club that has provided golf to its members since 1901. The course became something special in the 1920's when famous course designer William S. Flynn was hired to take the existing nine hole course to a full 18 holes. There's no room for expansion on the site, so the Bala course has remained at Flynn's original 5,306 yards. The U.S. Women's Open was held here in 1952. You can find hotels near Bala Golf Club at TheRealPlaces.com. Bala Golf Club is 4.1 miles from downtown Philadelphia.

Notes
Bionic Golf Gloves
Yeah, the name is a little goofy and they're a bit pricey. However, they're extremely comfortable and last a loooong time compared to standard-issue golf gloves.

Garmin Approach S12 Golf Watch
This caddy on your wrist knows distances for over 42,000 courses. We doubt that Bones Mackay can even claim to have that much knowledge. And the Approach S12 is a bit cheaper than hiring Bones.
