In order to encourage more ladies to join the group playing at the weekend,
either the red or the yellow tees can now be used for medals.

Just a reminder about bunkers in development.

The newly laid turf is GUR and if your ball is on the turf you must take full relief away from the bunker. If your ball is in the sand but you would have to stand on the turf to play it, you are allowed to move and place the ball in the sand to a point where you are also standing in the sand. At no time play any shot on the newly laid turf.

Please remember to rake the bunkers after use.

Also, unfortunately the badgers are back! If your ball ends up in the badger scrapings you are allowed full relief without penalty one club length from the disruption.

As you can see, another full programme this month.

Please make a note of two special dates – our Presentation Evening on 22nd October and also our AGM on Tuesday, 2nd November.

Enjoy your golf and as always - PLAY SAFE – STAY SAFE
