On these select Tuesday’s throughout the season, all members are eligible to play for FREE if they bring at least one eligible guest. The guest rate is being reduced on these days to $35 (includes golf, cart and range). Each member may bring up to 7 guests at this special, reduced rate. Dates: 7/21, 8/18 & 9/29 Restaurant Discounts (Starting Spring of 2021) With a late start and the restrictions around F&B, the $500 gift card promotion will begin in 2021. Weekend Games Weekend Game’s: In 2020, the golf shop will run a weekend game on various Saturday’s throughout the season. A full list of dates and formats is listed below. There is $100 entry fee due at the beginning of the season for any member who wishes to participate. After the entry fee is paid, there’s no need to pre-register or sign up for any of the events listed on a weekly basis. You’ll only be responsible for handing your scorecard in to the golf shop after your round. All scorecards must be passed in on the day of the event before the golf shop closes. No late scores will be accepted. Your scorecard must be legible including your full name and what tee you played. If your scorecard is not legible or not filled out completely, it will not be counted in that week’s game. The pro shop will then score the game when time allows (typically 24-48 hours after the event), pay out the prize money and send out the results via email to the membership. ***Until further notice, please submit your scorecard by taking a picture and sending it to [email protected] immediately following your round. Please make sure to mark what tee each participant played from, otherwise we will use your white tee handicap which is the lowest handicap allowed. Handicaps: Players may play from different tees utilizing the World Golf Handicap System. Payouts: At least 25% of the registered field must play (not just pass in cards) in order for a payout to happen in a given week. Each weekly payout will be determined by a % of all the total entry fee’s paid to date. The only date that will be made up as a “rain date” will be our last event of the season.

  • Settling Ties in Handicap Competitions
    SETTLING TIES IN HANDICAP COMPETITIONS How do you settle deadlocks-a halved match or a stroke-play tie-in a net competition? Rule 33-6 in the Rules of Golf requires that the Committee in charge of the competition announce a procedure for breaking ties before the competition starts. Simply stated, a halved match shall not be decided by stroke play; a tie in stroke play should not be decided by a match. Under Conditions of the Competition in Appendix I of the Rules of Golf, the USGA has some good recommendations that can help in these ticklish situations. Let's start with stroke play. One day our favorite duo, Uncle Snoopy and Woodstock, play 18 holes in a net competition at one of their favorite courses, Pumpkin Patch Golf Club. Uncle Snoopy's diligent work on his game has shaved his USGA Handicap Index down to 9.2, which translated into a Course Handicap of 11 that day. Woodstock meanwhile, has continued to struggle along with his 17.4 USGA Handicap Index, which resulted in a Course Handicap of 20 at Pumpkin Patch GC. At the end of 18 holes, Uncle Snoopy and Woodstock performed some beagle arithmetic on their scorecard. From the drawing, you can see that they both made net scores of 72. How should they proceed to break the tie? Sudden death is not recommended by the USGA in such cases. It's felt that playing hole-by-hole shouldn't decide a tie in stroke play. Instead, a playoff over 18 holes is the favored format.

  • Variable Face Milling to Normalize Putter Ball Speed and Maximize Forgiveness †
    Proceedings Variable Face Milling to Normalize Putter Ball Speed and Maximize Forgiveness † Jacob Lambeth *, Dustin Brekke and Jeff Brunski Cleveland Golf, 5601 Skylab Rd. Huntington Beach, CA 92647, USA; [email protected] (D.B.); [email protected] (J.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] † Presented at the 12th Conference of the International Sports Engineering Association, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, 26–29 March 2018. Published: 24 February 2018 Abstract: The forgiveness of golf putters is traditionally achieved through weight distribution. Higher MOI (moment of inertia) putters will show less ball speed loss on impacts away from the sweet spot. A very large MOI putter, however, may not be desired by a golfer due to weight or appearance. The relationship between ball speed and impact location is affected by the mass properties of the putter (i.e., CG location, mass, moments of inertia, products of inertia) and the putter face. It has been shown that certain face properties, such as milling patterns, grooves, or soft inserts, can have small effects on ball speed. This paper proposes a method to normalize the ball speed on laterally miss-hit putter impacts using a “model-specific” milling pattern of variable depth and pitch, resulting in the largest possible region of the face providing consistent putt distances, thus improving performance given the average player’s impact pattern. Keywords: golf clubs; putters; performance; milling; ball speed 1. Introduction Golf putters, like drivers and irons, are designed with strong consideration for forgiveness. Amateur golfers tend to impact the putter face over a relatively large area, increasing the need for performance on poor strikes.

  • 30-Minute WHS Presentation Notes
    30-Minute WHS Presentation Notes Slide 1 – None Slide 2 - None Slide 3 You can see by the map that the USGA Handicap System is the primary system being used today around the world – but there are six systems representing 15 million golfers in 80 countries who currently maintain a golf handicap. Each system aims to achieve the same thing – measure a golfer’s ability and provide equity for play – but with differing results that don’t translate very well from one to the other. Handicapping is a fragmented market right now. A collaborative process – USGA, R&A, Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU), European Golf Association, Golf Australia, Argentine Golf, South African Golf. Each of the existing handicap authorities have representation on the World Handicap Operations Committee. Along with the World Handicap Authority, they've helped developed the new World Handicap System. Future landscape (2020) – click for animation: • A unified WHS will enable golfers of different ability to play and compete on a fair and equitable basis, in any format, on any course, anywhere around the world. • So it will be portable around the world and provide a single measure worldwide for determining a player’s ability. • When adopted, the World Handicap System will be governed by the USGA and The R&A and administered by national and multi-national associations around the world. Safeguards are included to ensure consistency as well as adaptability to differing golf cultures. Slide 4 The USGA and The R&A currently govern the game with a global set of playing rules, equipment rules, and rules of amateur status– and in 2020, another piece of the governance puzzle will be added by implementing the World Handicap System which consists of the Rules of Handicapping and the Course Rating System.

  • Foursomes Matchplay
    FOURSOMES MATCHPLAY Format, Scoring, Handicap Allowance Team competition with just two teams competing against each other, played under matchplay rules, scored as in matchplay. The team with the higher sum of their playing handicaps (the aggregate) receives a handicap allowance equal to 50% of the difference between the aggregate playing handicap of each side, rounded to the nearest integer (≥0.5 is rounded up, <0.5 is rounded down). The team with the lower aggregate playing handicap plays off scratch. Course Adjustment If one or both of the teams is “mixed”, all players play off the men’s tee’s stroke indexes, consequently there is course adjustment. If both teams are of the same gender, all players play off their own tee’s stroke indexes and as such there is no course adjustment. Any adjustment is made prior to subtracting the lowest playing handicap. Please note that the PAR of a hole has no bearing in matchplay, it is completely ignored and the net score on a hole is the only thing that determines the result. Description Each of the two teams comprise two players. The two teams: Team X and Team Y, each team each consist of two players, Player A and Player B; Prior to playing, each team decides separately which player on their team will tee off on the odd-numbered holes. The other player will then tee off on the even-numbered holes. If Player A tees off, then Player B must play the next shot with that ball (and vice versa) and the team players alternate in this way until the ball is holed, or until it is picked up because the team cannot better or equal the opposing team's score on a hole.
