How does the rugged beauty of Royal Troon compare to the challenges of Wildhorse Golf Course? This episode promises an inside look at both, starting with a warm welcome to our YouTube and Instagram viewers. We'll spotlight two local golf events making waves: the Shoes for Scholars initiative at Red Rock Country Club and the Southern Nevada Golf Association's 100-hole fundraiser at Angel Park on July 29th, supporting junior golf programs. Join us in celebrating these community efforts and discussing how we can all get more involved.
