When Will and Ashley Wolford decided to create Iron and Wood, they solved a problem that has long frustrated Tahoe golfers. The problem is the short golf season in snow country.
“I saw this gap in town that there was no winter golf,” Ashely explained. “It just really didn’t exist here. They used to have one in the bowling alley in the 90s, and it was popular. But, of course, the technology wasn’t as good as it is now.”
Local courses only stay open half the year because of the elements. Will said that this helped inspire their 800-square-foot indoor golf facility.
