Tonight, I will tell you what I have always called “My Big Fish Story.” I would like to preface this story by telling you that every word is true. I am not like some fishermen and embellish the tale.
Missouri, for the most part, is still a green state. It is an outdoorsman’s paradise. The huge forests are teeming with deer, turkey and other wildlife. It is a popular vacation spot during hunting season. Missouri also is home to some very large lakes and fishermen and boaters alike enjoy the many recreational facilities available. The Lake of the Ozarks (known to the local population as “The Lake”) located in Central Missouri is so large it actually has more miles of shoreline than the entire State of California.

Santa Ponsa I Golf Course
Holes: 18
Par: 72
Course length: 6543m
The Santa Ponsa I was opened in 1977 and has since hosted many national and international tournaments over the years, including the PGA Tour Balearic Open. The course itself is fairly flat and is challenging to golfers of all levels. The spacious, tree-lined course is one of the longest in Europe, and obstacles include vegetation, water hazards and bunkers.
There are also two other golf courses at the Santa Ponsa resort, the 18-hole Santa Ponsa II and the 9-hole Santa Ponsa III. The resort also features a driving range, putting green, chipping area, pitching area, and a clubhouse with a bar and restaurant.
