LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR OF GOLF

BRAD ’ S BUGLE

How can we be talking March already ?! January treated us great except for a few cold spells but February started with a 4-day COLD stretch . Course conditions have been fabulous with tons of nice member comments and great reviews from our public players .
The Driving Range has become our 2021 topic so far . We have asked for your help and consideration and it seems as if most are willing to understand and abide by the changes . I have been told by several that this has been a big topic for years . Change can be difficult however we MUST all do our part . The Golf Shop promises to help our neighbors down the right ( west side ) of the range . For example , we have spent some serious man hours realigning the float-targets , so they create a visual for all to aim left with longer clubs . The following are a few topics that we are striving to get better at on the range :
• Please , always aim LEFT .
• Only use drivers ( and other long clubs ) on the far , east end of the range .
• This may take away from the time you are used to with your long clubs . On that note , please plan your time better when it comes to wanting to hit longer clubs .
• Park in designated areas , especially on the north side of the cart path in the shells .
• Never drive or park on any grass .
Whiff & Wine has been great so far with upwards of 15 people coming each week . Again , see Tyler or Jorgene for more information about their Whiff & Wine Classes held each Tuesday at 4:00PM .
Course and Cart reminders :
• Keep carts on paths longer than your heart and brain can tolerate . If you do not have to be on the grass , please don ’ t .
• Handicap flag driving – NEVER enter a green from the front , ALWAYS use the cart path side .
• Use the Plus 1 system - fill your divot plus 1 and fix your ball mark plus 1 .
As our season is kicking in , please see the following as key upcoming dates of golf interest :
• March 3rd , 4th & 5th – Men ’ s Club Championship
• March 15th – Women ’ s Member Fun Day Sincerely ,
• March 21st – Couples Championship
