Captain's Comment

 

Hope everyone enjoyed the month of July with the many family "get togethers", functions, and outings that the SUMMER brings out and still find the time to play some golf. What a great time of year! I hope everyone is enjoying it as much as I am. It looks like those hot, humid, sticky days are upon us, but I guess it is better than the RAIN we have had... Already we are into the month of August....

Our Club Championship Qualifying rounds were played over a number of weekends finally coming down to the wire. This year again, as last year, there was not only a Championship Division, but a First Division, and a Senior Division ...Our Club Championship Winner is Ken McKay!

Our Two Day Member Member was a great success..Winners receiving a 2010 Woodland Greens Golf Membership!

We have a number of UPCOMING EVENTS...I have added a Ladies Woodland OPEN per request. Be sure to check it out along with the other upcoming events...... Support your Club!

So for now, relax, focus, enjoy the rest of the summer and hit em straight!

Golf Tip of the Month


Proper warmup is essential for peak performance in any sport. If you attend any professional sporting event you always see athletes going through a pre-game warmup, and pro golfers are no different. By the time tour professionals step to the first tee, they are fully prepared to make their best swings from the opening tee shot. So do yourself a favor; WARMUP..It DOES make a difference!
