Mild weather means green for Illinois golf courses

WEST CHICAGO, Ill. (AP) ? The mild winter weather means that many suburban Chicago golf courses are having an extended season.

Mike Carney is the golf sales coordinator at Prairie Landing Golf Club in West Chicago. Carney tells the Daily Herald that the club usually gets to Thanksgiving but on Saturday the course is "booked solid" with people dumbfounded there are no tee times available.

General manager Joe Bidro at the Cook County Forest Preserve Highland Woods in Palatine says he's been averaging 100 players a day in December. Bidro calls it "pretty exciting" and says any business this time of year is a bonus.
