PR GC - Captains November Message 2024.
Just a few words from me, this month, as obviously the AGM is on Tuesday 5th November at the Club, from 7.00 pm for a prompt 7.30 pm start, where your attendeance will be greatly appreciated.
Around the Club.
Our Pro Shop Manager, Luke Viney, has just released the Online "E Catalogue" of all things Golf, which of course is just in time for your Christmas purchases and presents. Luke price matched against equivalent internet products which means on some products we are much cheaper than other retailers like American Golf. So please chat to Luke about the items you might need.
The Course.
Is still in great condition, and the reason the greenkeepers have put the Winter mats out early, is because of the currently mild weather which is enabling them to re-seed some of the tees and other neccessary maintenance. White tees and gold and bronze tees will still be put out for certain competitions, subject to weather conditions.
Our HCP Secretary, Steve Williams, has very kindly worked his way again through all the numbers to produce schedules for the Mats course listing out the 95% hcp course details.
He has also pointed out that if you are in any doubt about your course hcp, just enter your GROSS scores on your card and our HDIDIDO machine should do the rest when you get back to the clubhouse.
