The Latest News

Hi Fellow Pinseekers,

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to join you tomorrow for golf, but the weather looks terrific and I hope you all have a great game!

Alan will be playing in the Men’s Club Tournament tomorrow, so he won’t be able to post our scores and send out the Sweep Results until Wednesday.

I still missing photos of a lot of members for our website, so if you have a favorite photo please send it to me at dcook2345@att.net.

Over the last couple of weeks we’ve had some issues with pace of play. As Scott Steele mentioned at the Annual Meeting we should be looking to finish 9-holes around 2 hours 15 minutes or better. I’ve asked him to put suggested times on our scorecards beginning this week to provide a guide as to whether you are on-time or behind the standard pace of play. For each hole there will be the expected Finishing time. If you get behind, please consider strategies for speeding up – like continuous putting, limiting time looking for lost balls to 3 minutes or less, hitting shots down the fairway (if safe) at the same time or without waiting for others in your foursome, and moving on to the next tee without waiting for all four golfers to putt out.

Last of all, we’re all out there to have fun and enjoy each others company. I’ll be putting out some golf etiquette tips over the next few weeks – maybe will call it “Mr. Manners” or something suitably humorous. I’m taking suggestions for a name for the articles.

Good luck everyone, and have fun!

Regards,
David Cook
