Discovery Bay Women's Golf Club

Ladies –

Thanks to everyone who came out to play today. Nice to be able to get out in early January and have pretty good conditions.

A couple of reminders. Please be mindful of pace of play. We play with a shotgun start therefore everyone should get in around the same time. This gives us time to socialize together and announce results. Remember – if you can’t see the group in front of you, you are behind.

Don’t forget the new options for an unplayable ball in a bunker. These are covered in Rule 19-3 and I would encourage you to read the details here.

Next weeks game is Criss Cross – you get to pick from your Net score on 1 or 10, 2 or 11, etc. Please sign up on Foretees by noon on Saturday.

Today’ results:
Chip-ins, each worth $10.50: Bonnie Ladd and Linda Montgomery.

Birdies: Cindy Aafedt #13, Rochelle Baxley #2, Lisa Ferrante #7.

Closest-to-the-pin: $4 each
#2 – Rochelle Baxley 2’7″ and Kris Rogers 25’19”
#17 – Jan Murphy 8’2″ and Julie Hanson 35’1″

Sweet & Sour Game:
1st flight – 3-way tie – $7 each
Lisa Ferrante, Stacey Moro, Deborah Veatch

2nd flight – 4-way tie – $5.25 each
Bonnie Ladd, Sondi Schnee, Sandy Mize, Doris Bunnell

See you all next week!
Donna and Sondi

To Cindy and Donna,
We want to congratulate both of you on your recent selection to the 2020 Advisory Board.

Your dedication, enthusiasm and inspiring input will proudly represent the DBWGC.
Congratulations,

Susan Leeper

Dear Ladies,

The World Handicap System is approaching soon! Effective January 1, 2020, there will be several key changes regarding our handicaps.

Normal score posting will continue until December 31. Then all will go dark as tens of millions of existing scores in the U.S. are uploaded to the new GHIN platforms. A few days and a quick reboot later, the WHS commences on January 6, 2020.

To learn more, visit the NCGA website at:

Best regards,

Susan Leeper

Good afternoon ladies,
I received a very nice thank you from the crew at Discovery Bay CC this morning when I delivered pizza and sodas from our club. They were kind enough to take a quick photo with me for our bulletin board and historian books.
What a nice way to celebrate Christmas.
