I live in Iowa. We just got dumped on with 16 inches of snow and the temp is below zero. That probably means no golf until April. So besides jetting south and being glued to the Golf Channel, what's a guy supposed to do to get his golf fix?

Des Moines actually has a nice indoor bubble practice facility. You can hit full shots but only see about 100+ yds of ball flight. It's fun but a little pricey. Just wondering what others in the northern states do in the non-golf months to keep sharp.

I have a full outdoor driving range about a mile away that is open year round. It is two stories, so during the winter months they encase each hitting stall on the lower level with 3-walls and hang a heating lamp. I use it frequently during the winter; I think the coldest day I made it out there was about 21 degrees.
