Presidents Day (Patsy Hackett)

Despite the terrible weather of the last week, Patys Hackett's President's Day turned out to be a glorious day with perfect weather conditions.

Although the ground was wet in places, the new drainage proved to be a great success and the scoring was unbelievable for this time of year.
Patsy congratulated all of the winners and thanked all who helped on the course and in the club house to make it a special day for him.
With everyone enjoying themselves it was a perfect finale to a great year.

Pitch Marks

Leaving Pitch Marks when playing destroys the greens, it takes a lot of care and attention to keep them in pristine condition, so all members and green fees are asked to repair them and use the correct repairer when doing so.

Do not use club heads to repair a pitch mark as this damages the green. Always use a pitch repairer. 

Also do not use the club head to take balls out of holes on greens as this damages the hole. 

If anyone has an hour or two Mondays to Fridays to spare to give a hand helping on the course you would be very welcome.

Did you know?

Winter rules are now in play which means:

Bunkers are not in play and you can clean and place your ball, but not nearer to the pin.

PITCH AND PUTT IS FUN!

remember pitch and putt is only a game so go out and enjoy it.

T.shirts, caps and gloves for sale in club house.
