Before golf was invented, grassy pastures were viewed as the exclusive territory of roaming sheep, herds of cattle, and overzealous Civil War reenactors. Celebrate turf's competitive utility with today's Groupon for a golf coupon card from Summers Promotions. Most coupons require a purchase of one round of golf and cart rental. See individual coupon descriptions for details. Choose between the following options:

• For $20, you get one Golf Michiana local-edition golf coupon card (a $40 value). • For $25, you get one Golf Michiana regional-edition golf coupon card (a $50 value).

Summers Promotions tempts golfers with a conquerable map of lush courses, granting generous discounts to up to 17 golf courses across northwest Indiana and southwest Michigan. Good through most of the 2011 season, the coupon card sent in the mail showers players with deals on twosomes, foursomes, and three-and-a-halfsomes at greens throughout the region, with weekend outings available at most courses. Deals promise two-for-one value on a round of golf and cart rental—when accompanied by a paid round and cart—at courses such as Christiana Creek Country Club in Elkhart or Angels Crossing in Vicksburg. Golfers should examine the conditions and expiration dates of each coupon for details and observe the collared-shirt and powdered-wig dress code of each course.
