One of the most popular golf
ing places in this vicinity is the
Bethesda golf practice grounds,
located just above Bethesda
Md. on the Rockville Pike.
Here golfers can practice day
and night, brushing up on their
driving shots, both irons and
woods, as we'll as practicing ap-
preaching and putting. One Of
the features is place for chip
shots. So few golfers polish up
on their chip and approach shots,
which are as important as any In
golfers kit.
The Bethesda golf practice
grounds is we'll illuminated at
night, arc lights flooding the
field and make everything visible
to the golfer for upwards of 300
yards. The place is said to be
far superior to the ordinary prac-
tice driving grounds.
