July 15, 2024

In 2019, the USGA allowed the flagstick to remain in the cup when putting on the green.

Is that the right decision to give yourself the best opportunity to score?

According to the short game guru Dave Pelz…

– The hole is 4.25-inches wide.
– The diameter of a standard flagstick is t…Read more

Take a look the next time you are on the course and think good things about “one putt”.

Four trees were recently removed. I expect scores to improve!

Since then, it seems I barely get to meet my team through season. Maybe that is a responsibility of the captains to create some sort of stronger team atmosphere. The idea of teeing off at time groupings is appealing from that standpoint.

I am typically ok with golfing the week…Read more

Does anyone know if they are accepting applications on line or via email?

Agree on probable spot and loose one stroke. Off the tee, you would be hitting your third shot after the drop.

This is a record for Brookview for me. (Twenty minute separation of tee times probably made the biggest difference.) We jumped one four-some but it was clear sailing the whole day. Three-some with social distancing (I could hardly tell from a usual game!) Mid-60’s but the 20 mph wind from the west made…Read more
