Tournament Results:
 
Our January Captain’s Choice with String Tournament was rescheduled on January 25th due to inclement weather on the 18th.   We had a good turnout of 23 players on a very nice day, and all enjoyed this fun format.  We collected $230 in entry fees and gave it all back out as prizes (60% 1st place and 40% 2nd place).
 
Congratulations to the winners who were as follows:
1st Place:  Bruce Honeycutt, Brent Gillespie, Chuck English                       57
2nd Place: Lewis Autry, Ron Bisbee, Eddie Glidewell, Greg Kennedy        59
 (Won on tiebreaker by ending with most string with 2 other teams who also finished 13 under.)
 
Upcoming Tournament:
 
Our next tournament is scheduled for Sat. February 18 with a 10 AM shotgun start.  The format is Red/White/Blue Captain’s Choice.   Each team will decide which holes to play from the Red, White, & Blue tees (6 holes each) and then all players will play from the designated color tee.  Seniors, however, may move up from White to Gold and from Blue to White.  Tee selection strategy usually plays an important part in this format.  A standard tiebreaker will be in effect (back nine, last six, last three).
 
Please be at course BEFORE 9:30 AM to sign up for this fun event.  No prior sign up is required.  Officers will form 4 Man Teams based on handicaps (A/B/C/D).  The course has once again offered to let Guests ride free; so, bring any potential new members out for this fun event.  Remember to let Front Desk know who is a guest when paying for green fee.
