Welcome to the 2005 edition of Golfing Northwestern Illinois.

As any golfer can tell you, golf is not just a sport in which a player attempts to hit a small, hard ball into a hole in as few swings as possible. It’s a passion — and a game of skill for the professional and amateur alike.

Each year, more and more people take to the courses for the first time. Whether you are just beginning to learn the sport or you’re a professional, we at Sauk Valley Newspapers hope you will find the enclosed articles both informative and fun.

Happy golfing!
