Bill Barry, Kidney Cancer Survivor
Bill loves golf. But just as in life, sometimes the unexpected can throw you off your game. Like when, a year and a half ago, Bill was diagnosed with life threatening kidney cancer. He needed a place to go for help, a place to get the best medical care possible. What he found at Carson Tahoe was so much more. Carson Tahoe got Bill the treatment he needed to make a full recovery. You could say it was the mulligan he needed to get his life back on course. He is grateful everyday for Carson Tahoe and its staff, “I am so thankful for the people who work there. The hospitalists and nurses were fabulous and the service was wonderful. They didn’t leave anything up to chance. They saved my life.”

How many Calories Does Golf Really Burn?
Golf for Good Health
Sure, playing golf is a perfect way to enjoy a relaxing day off with friends, but golf is also a great way to get in shape, too. A typical 18-hole round of golf, using a cart, burns from 200-300 calories. If you want to step it up, ditch the cart in favor of walking the course. You’ll burn even more calories (325-475 calories) and depending of if you use a rolling cart or carry your clubs, will increase your muscle strength. The act of swinging also keeps your muscles and joints active, while calculating your drives, chips and putts gives your brain a workout, too.
For a detailed list of the calories you burn for other common activities, go to http://www.nutristrategy.com/activitylist4.htm. Or to learn more about the golf courses in our region, go to http://www.golfthehighsierra.com.
