From the Pro ~ April 2023

Dear Members,

The Golf Season is off to a slow start, but don’t worry, the warm weather and sunshine will soon be here. We were able to hold one of two events in March and that was our Shamrock Open. Twenty-six brave souls played through the bitter cold but in the end, found their pot of gold, including our winners, Ron, and Shari Shannon.

Even though March was off to a slow start, April will be full of entertainment. For one, the best Golf event of the year, The Master’s will be on soon. To go along with this, we will once again hold a Golf Shop Master’s Pool and host our own Master’s Tournament. We’ll have our Virtual Golf Bash (60 tickets remain, 20 pavilion seats remain), Beginner Golf Clinics, Demo Days and Opening Day.

Along with events, April begins with many aspects dealing with the course and Golf.

 These include:

• Every golfer MUST CHECK IN with the Golf Shop before playing, even if you are walking.
• April 1 will start Group Times on weekdays and weekends. A few things have changed for this year, so all group members please reach out to your captain.
• Handicap posting begins on April 1 (see section below for more information)
• Please obey cart rules posted by the Golf Shop and keep all carts 30 yards away from the Green. Daily Cart Rulings are posted on the sign by the putting green.
• Jeans are NO LONGER permitted on the Golf Course (until Nov. 1^st)
• 5-somes are NO LONGER permitted
• If you are playing with a guest, please note guests’ fees include a cart, even when walking.
• Pace of Play for Ligonier is 4 hours (2-hour front 9, 2-hour back 9)
