The first time I played Christmas golf was in 2011 and Bonifay had just opened two months earlier, except for Pensacola was still closed. I got there at 7:15 and I was about #35 in line, the first two guys said they got there about 4:30am. We were all lined up down the sidewalk up to the Destin starter shack and then they said, anybody want to play just nine holes, turn around and go to the Ft. Walton starter shack. Now, I'm #23 in line for 18 holes. Then they said, anybody here a single, and I said, that's me. Now, I'm next on the tee. What I saw when we came in about noon, there wasn't one person waiting to tee off. So if you don't want to wait, go later. Also on the way home I past Turtle Mound and Sand Hill Executives and nobody was waiting, later is better.
