With our course in great condition and the weeds being removed from the greens a little time needs to be spent in the bunkers. If you play a shot out of the bunkers spend another 30 seconds and rake out some extra footmarks.
Joke of the week
The Reverend Col Norton woke up Sunday morning, he realized that it was an exceptionally beautiful and sunny day and decided he just had to play golf. So he told the associate Pastor that he was feeling sick and convinced him to say mass for him. Then he headed out of town to a golf course about 40 miles away, this way he knew he wouldn’t accidentally meet anyone he knew from his Parish. Setting up on the first tee, he was alone, after all, it was Sunday morning and everyone else was in church. About this time, St. Peter leaned over to the Lord while looking down from Heaven and exclaimed, “You’re not going to let him get away with this, are you”, the Lord sighed and said, “No I guess not”. Just then Father Norton hit the ball, it shot straight towards the pin, dropped just short of it, and rolled up and fell into the hole. It was a 420 yard Hole-in-one! St. Peter was astonished. He looked at the Lord and asked, “Why did you let him do that?. The Lord smiled and replied, “Who’s he going to tell?.
Hit em long, hit em straight.
