Think it\u2019s too cold for golf? Forest Akers has you covered! In 2009, <a title=\"Driving Range Grand Opening Video\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V4vsJtBwn_Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forest Akers opened its all-weather driving range<\/a>. The facility is the first of its kind in mid-Michigan and offers 18 stalls for golfers to practice comfortably all year long. Each covered stall is equipped with overhead heaters. Come sleet, snow or rain, the driving range will remain open.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>You can visit <a title=\"Forest Akers Golf Website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.golf.msu.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">golf.msu.edu<\/a> for current hours and more information!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On a typical afternoon at the Forest Akers driving range, you\u2019ll see golfers of all ages.
