Golf Snippet #2
DIVOT HOLES
Don’t you just hate it when you’ve had an amazing drive only to discover that your ball has come to rest in a divot hole!!! What rotten luck, and so unfair.
But surely the Rules of golf allow you to move your ball out of that divot without penalty, right?
Wrong. No, you cannot move a golf ball out of a divot hole even when that divot is in the fairway – at least, not without penalty. However, you do have an option. Declare the ball unplayable, assess yourself a one-stroke penalty, and drop a ball.
Play from where you hit your last shot.
Go back as far as you like in line with the pin.
Measure two club lengths from where your ball lies in the divot hole and drop a ball no closer to the pin.
Or………. suck it up, and play from the divot hole, no penalty
I hope this helps you.

> Aeration starts on August 24, first the greens, then tee boxes, then the fairways. This will greatly help all the areas that look like ground under repair and the many ball marks on the greens. PLEASE – fix your ball marks and any others you see on the green. >
> Discussed the driving range and how we can help to keep it in good shape. Possibly use mats more frequently or close half the range at a time. >
> Labor Day Monday the course will be open, as well as the Tuesday after. >
> Discussed the stakes on #11 and possibly putting a temporary tee box on the right side for the GOLD tees. Tim will have a communication about a local rule that will go into effect for hitting the ropes or poles. >
> Still a lot of play and that takes a toll on the course and the golf carts. >
> Our next meeting is Sept. 17, send me any comments or questions you have before that date. >
> Regards,

Enjoy ladies!
Here are my notes from our recent meeting:
>
>
> – Play days for the 3 groups (18-holers, 9-holers, seniors) – hoping to get 2 groups to play per week. You will be notified when that change occurs.
> – When playing with the group it’s best to either take a cart for the 18-holes or walk 18-holes but if you want to walk 9 and then ride 9 it can be difficult to have a cart ready for you.
> – Trying different times for getting tee times. This week it is Friday at 6pm. This may change in the future. > – Hoping to have some form of outdoor dining soon.
> – Aeration will be done on August 24 with the small tines, not plugs.
> – Greens are currently a little slower due to the product that controls the crabgrass. They should be speeding up soon. > – Mats only on the range for the next 2 weeks.
