Golfers can hole up in the clubhouse at Falcon Ridge Golf Course during the big freeze that just nailed the capital and shake off the chill in their bones by playing some indoor golf.

General manager Steve Spratt and his staff are welcoming golfers of all ability levels to the south-end facility where there are two new offers on the table.

“Foursomes can play for only $100 in total when they book screen times for between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.,” said Spratt. “And for junior players 18 and under, there’s a 15% screen fee discount for individual golfers.

Here are screen times for the next four days:

Jan. 19 - Screen time bookings available from 3:30 p.m. until closing on one simulator and the second simulator can be booked from 7:30 p.m. until closing.

“They feature sharp views and record all aspects of the game. Golfers are also able to track club speed, impact points, each club’s yardage and more.”

The simulators not only give local golfers the opportunity to play what the PGA and LPGA’s best stroke players are familiar with, they can also be set up for best-ball, alternate shot and other formats.

Falcon Ridge is located at 4740 High Rd., across from Rideau Carleton Track and Slots on Albion Road.
