38 Putts

I think we're trying to please......NOW

Pins in playing to the greens. Ground is so soft on 5 we left sole deep footprints. For the 6 of us playing it makes no sense to damage the greens now. Temptation was there to pull the pins and stick them in the mud in front of the greens. Hope we are not sorry come May and June.

With this budget you expect what ?

At our most recent committe meeting the 2009 budget was revealed. Down close to 35%. No surprise as that is about the decline in membership. What was a surprise is that the committee put forth some of its "priorities" for course maintaince that make no sense what so ever and you could easily read the gree keeper's mind. With this budget you expect what ?  I think course conditioning is going to take a big hit this year, not only our club but other places as well. This post from eagleparbirdie.com pretty much sums up the state of golf for 2009.
