Chance To Play Merion
Dream
Here's a raffle with a big-time prize: the Philadelphia Publinks Golf Association is holding a $10 raffle to benefit its Scholarship Program, and the winner gets a threesome at Merion Golf Club (the 4th will be the member host) in 2013. That means you'd be playing it under US Open conditions, narrow fairways and all. You can grab a link for more information here at TeeItUpPhilly.com.

Play

Back Creek Golf Club (DE) is running a special this afternoon: tee off after 2pm and play today for $25.
Equipment
A new program will debut this Friday at the Golf Academy at Makefield Highlands: "What's In Your Bag?" It is a free half-hour Club Evaluation with PGA Director of Instruction Ed Gibson. Those sessions will be held between 11am and 1pm, and you need to book an appointment at 215-321-7000 or megibson04@comcast.net.

Every Wednesday we profile another golf course. So check back tomorrow for my take on Twisted Dune.
