FROG returns to Boyne Mountain

BOYNE CITY – Have you ever wanted in the Guinness Book of World Records?

Well, it’s not likely you’ll run the world’s fastest mile or toss a javelin to other-worldly lengths, but you still might have a shot to get in. Here’s how:

WJR’s annual FROG (Fastest Round of Golf) attempt will take place July 20 at Boyne Mountain Resort. The event format requires golfers to be grouped in teams, with no limit to the number of participants on a team.

Each team strategically places its golfers on the tee boxes, in all possible landing areas along the fairway and around the greens. The timer begins once the opening tee-ball is struck, with golfers in the fairway running to hit the ball as soon as it comes to rest. As golfers on the green sink the putt, a player on the next hole immediately hits the next tee shot. Be one of the first 50 people to register online and receive a WJR/FROG/BOYNE hat at check-in on the morning of the event.

The current world record for the fastest round of golf is 8 minutes, 10 seconds for 18 holes. And you thought you played fast on Saturday mornings. Visit  http://www.boyne.com/Golf/Frog/ for information.
