Southeastern Junior Golf Tour
The Southeastern Junior Golf Tour played two events this past weekend at the Dancing Rabbit Golf Club and the Gulf Shores Golf Club. Both events saw chilly weather and windy days. The Dancing Rabbit Junior Classic saw temperatures in the 20's to start the day which forced a 30 minute frost delay. Player's embraced the weather and got through the round with some great scores.
