Practice up indoors at Falcon Ridge for soon-to-be-here outdoor season (Photos)

The two latest generation HD golf simulators at Falcon Ridge Golf Course are sure to attract a lot of golfers now that the Ottawa-Gatineau GolfExpo is less than a month away.

The event that signals that the outdoor season is closing in goes March 9-10 in the Ernst and Young Centre at 4899 Uplands Dr.

Falcon Ridge general manager Steve Spratt and his staff are welcoming golfers of all ability levels to the south-end facility where they can shake the rust off their games before heading outside.
