I was told the other day that a typical, 18-hole championship (if you hit perfectly aligned shots) would span a total of 5 miles. But since the average golfer doesn't hit straight ropes, you need to figure that 18 holes would really add 15 miles to your odometer. So if you had a golf cart with 4 batteries at 12 volts each (which should net you 25 miles on a full elec. charge), you would have a tough time driving from LSL to Lopez, play 18 holes, and return.

I think the person who told me was either (1) a gas golf cart advocate, or (2) more-than-4-battery advocate <g>.

Ps: Please don't ask me from what set of tees the 5 mile (and corresponding 15 miles) calculation was made. I don't know.
