Bryan Outram, Inside Golf

Winter may be upon us, but it's definitely more upon many of our friends further east than here in the Lower Mainland. 

This area is fortunate enough to have some pretty decent days over the winter months and that means opportunities to get out and golf are still available and so are some very good deals at various courses and facilities in this region of beautiful British Columbia.
 
Here are just a few of those being offered:
