Jack Simmons hole-in-one

Congratulations to Jack Simmons!!!!

Mr. Simmons hit his first hole-in-one Wednesday, May 30th on #3. 

He hit a 5 iron from 160 yards. 

This is our second hole-in-one on #3 in 4 days.  I am starting to think that hole is easier than everyone talks about.   

G.I.V.E. Totals from the weekend and Rich Jasper hole-in-one

Thank you to everyone who donated to our

G.I.V.E. (Golf for Injured Veterans Everywhere) fundraiser over Memorial Day weekend.   

We were able to raise $620 for this great cause.

Congratulations to all of our closest to the pin winners.  All of them will receive a free guest pass but the BIG WINNER was Rich Jasper.  He had a hole-in-one on Sunday, May 27th during the holiday couples event.  He hit it on #3 with a 6 iron 160 yards.   Mr. Jasper had given his $10 for G.I.V.E. so he wins a 4 day/3 night stay at one of seven resorts.  This includes 3 rounds of golf and a $500 voucher. 

Congratulations Rich Jasper!!!!

Five 90-minute lessons for $99

Our first series of classes will begin on Tuesday, April 24^th

from 5:00pm to 6:30pm for 5 consecutive Tuesdays.

If you have ever thought about playing golf but are having problems starting the process, then Get Golf Ready is a great way to begin. Whether you are a beginner at golf or returning to the game, the Get Golf Ready Program is designed to teach you, in five short lessons, everything you'll need to know to step onto a golf course and get out to play with confidence.

Lesson 1- We will begin with a brief history of golf.  We will also introduce the fundamentals, including everything from how to dress and act of the golf course to the purpose of each club. To finish, we will even take you onto the golf course to hit a few putts. 

Lesson 2- During the second lesson, you'll learn the art of chipping, pitching and hitting out of green-side bunkers, as you learn your way around the course, being out there for the second time.

Lesson 3- On day three, you'll be introduced to the fairway and how to use your irons, in addition to important lessons like stretching and repairing divots.

Lesson 4- On the fourth day, you'll learn everything you'll need to know about teeing off, including which of your metal-woods to use and choosing between the different tee markers.

Lesson 5- On the final day, you'll finish up by learning how to play, keep score and some basic rules like water hazards, out of bounds and lost balls. And then when all is said and done, you'll put it all to use by playing a hole or two.
