A Guy's Weekend May Have New Meaning - Golf and a Salt Scrub Dad?

This article came 2 days late to my inbox to make it for father's day, but in truth my father would roll over in his grave at the thought of a spa treatment of golf...but then again he was a man of the 50's not the 21s century. If you happen to have a guy in your life that likes a little pampering with his golf, the desert is the place to do it. Some special packages are outlined below, but they offer services for men all year round.
