W
hen looking at every-
thing Monarch Beach
Golf Links has to offer, it
becomes pretty clear that it's any-
thing but business as usual – there's
plenty that makes a round at the
oceanfront property unique.
"We strive to make the experi-
ence of playing a round of golf at
Monarch Beach Golf Links one that
guests will remember forever," says
General Manager Eric Lohman.
For instance…
> GolfBoards are all the rage
and won't be going away anytime
soon. Golfers love "surfing the
earth" and getting around the golf
course in a fun and exciting new
fashion. Riding a GolfBoard makes
the time between shots nearly as
fun as the golf itself.
> Waterman Forecaddies are as
knowledgeable about the local surf
breaks as they are on how your
putts will break. As you make your
way around the seaside course,
they'll provide distances to the hole
and give you the inside scoop on all
the best ways to enjoy yourself off
the course, whether dining at top
local restaurants or finding the
ideal spot to set off on a stand-up
paddleboard.
> Flex Rental Sets offer pre-
mium clubs from TaylorMade, Ti-
tleist, Callaway and Ping. Players
can mix and match a set to their
exact specifications, so there's no
need to haul your clubs through
airports or ship them from home.
> 9FORE9 is a new offering for
Orange County residents (the name
is a play on the county's 949 area
code) that offers $49 rates on nine-
hole rounds before 7:30 a.m. on the
back nine and 2
1
⁄2 hours before sun-
down on the front. Additionally,
golfers can get some amazing add-
ons for just $9 – such as GolfBoard
rental, club rentals, a number of
food and drink specials and more.
