Victoria Golf Course Edmonton Review

This summer, and almost every year for that matter, I golf at the Victoria Golf Course in the heart of Edmonton. This course is one of the few owned/run by the City of Edmonton. The other’s include Rundle Park Golf Course and Riverside Golf Course. 

There are some things I really like about this course, and some things I wish were different. Check out my my full review of the Victoria Golf Course after the break…

Golf Beer Pong And Ways To Play It

Have you heard of the new, most amazing drinking and golf skill game out there? It's called Golf Beer Pong, and it is awesome! Check out the video of Brian Baumgartner (aka Kevin from the TV show 'The Office') playing with Mark Willard, who is the host of “Celebrities in Golf Carts” (More on this series in another post).

In this version they set up a 3 teir pyramid of beer jugs (have to go big on the golf course), filled with beer. They each take turns chipping their golf ball into the jugs in a race to see who can get 3 into the jugs. They appear to edit a lot of the shots out, as it looks like it takes them quite a while to get to 3 in the jugs. They play for a simple prize in this version of a “Best Golfer Ever” beer-stein. I won't ruin who wins, you have to watch the video for that.

Then follow on past the break to check out the rules of Golf Beer Pong, along with some Variations to Golf Beer Pong!

An engineer, a priest and a doctor play golf…

An engineer, a priest, and a doctor are trying to enjoying a round of golf. Ahead of them is a group playing so slowly and inexpertly that in frustration the three ask the Marshall for an explanation. “That’s a group of blind firefighters,” they are told. “They lost their sight saving our clubhouse last year, so we let them play for free.”

The priest says, “I will say a prayer for them tonight.”

The doctor says, “Let me ask my ophthalmologist colleagues if anything can be done for them.”

Smoky Lake Golf Course Review

I golfed the well kept 9 hole smoky lake golf course on the weekend and it was a fun little course.

This course is located across the highway (Highway 28) from Smoky Lake. It takes a little over an hour from Edmonton to get there.

As mentioned it is a 9 hole course, but luckily it doesn't feel like a short course. There are a two par 3s, and it is a par 36 course.

Hunters Green Golf Course Review

I got the chance to check out Hunters Green again earlier this year, and here is my review of some of the things about the course.

First off the course can be tough to get to. You used to be able to access the golf course from both 127st and from 97st, but the city has since changed the overpass on 97st so you must go in the other way. This is a bit of a shame for the course, as they probably lose a lot of traffic due to this. 

The course has grown since I last played it. It has matured and is in a lot better shape now.
