Beer Cart Etiquette

You know your golf etiquette, but do you know your beer cart etiquette? 

 

#1: Tip often, tip big!

 

#2: Don’t make her wait, give her the right of way and wave her on or place your order without delay.

 

#3: If you are too distracted by the commotion and noise of the beer cart, then wait until it is gone before shooting.

 

#4: Please don’t touch the cooler or drinks until they are served to you.

 

#5: If the beer cart is within shooting range, do not shoot! Wait until they are out of the way. Please be patient so that it can get around the course quickly.  

 

#6: Most importantly, always give the operator the highest level of respect.

Book your tee times!

The course is playing wonderfully and we haven’t had too much moisture. Come out and play the excellent conditions, book your tee time today!

Super’s News

This May newsletter feels much overdo. With some sun and heat and maybe a break in the rain we can
finally get going with golf and growing some grass. I hope that everyone was able to get at least one
round in during the past weeks.

Our greens came through the spring well, some were a bit waterlogged but have dried up nicely and we
will very soon be able to begin speeding them up and making them more consistent. This will take a
week or two but then we will maintain the same consistency throughout the summer so our members
will always know what to expect. Our overseeding project will begin to take place this week and we will
put a big emphasis on the par 3 tees to start with. This will mean some temporary tees at times, please
use the designated area between the markers to hit from. Other areas that are barren soil, mostly along
cart paths, will either be roped off, or a sign will be up if there is fresh seed, please follow direction of
ground under repair for those places. Our divot boxes are almost ready to be put out, so please utilize
them when they are available. Yes, our bunkers will be worked on this week to be playable. Thank you
for your patience.

No, this drone shot is not from this year, the leaves are not quite this full yet, but we like it nonetheless!

Course Greeters and Hosts wanted

We are looking for weekend Course Hosts and Greeters. There will be 4.5 and 9 hour shifts available. Hosts and Greeters can choose to be paid or earn golfing privileges or passes. 

 

Job descriptions:

Greeters:

Greet customers and communicate their starting position as they arrive at the first tee. Monitor pace of play and record start times, turn times, and finish times. 

 

Hosts:

Course Hosts will actively monitor pace of play throughout the course and remind any groups that fall out of position to catch back up. Hosts will help customers with anything that may come up during a customer’s time at the golf course and guide them in the right direction.

These are not professional golf lessons, rather, this is an introduction to the game including: basic etiquette, expectations, and how to have fun on a golf course. The sessions will include an introduction to the golf swing – basics including grip, stance, and swing. This will introduce you to the game of golf and give you the confidence and ability to be able to play golf with some friends on a real golf course.

Interclub Leagues

Scotswood has teams in two interclub leagues:

Central Seniors Golf League – open to men 55+. Every Monday at 9:30AM six players from each participating club form a team to play against the scheduled opponent for the day. Participating clubs in past years include: Morden, Winkler, Carman, Portage, Bridges, Warren, Assiniboine, Selkirk, Larters, Meadows, Wildewood, Transcona, Scotswood, and Oakwood. Half of our matches are played at home and half are played at another course. This league is open to members only and participants do not pay for green fees at any course, home or away. If you are interested in playing, please send us an email. We hope to form a team of 12 players, so you would play half the weeks. We will hold a tryout and the lowest 12 will form the team!

Prairie Putter League – this interclub league is open to all men and is played 18 holes each Monday evenings at 5:00. Eight players from each participating club form a team to play against the scheduled opponent for the day. Participating clubs this year are: Morden, Winkler, Carman, Portage, Bridges, and Scotswood. Half of our matches are played at home and half are played at another course. This league is open to members only and participants do not pay for green fees at any course, home or away. If you are interested in playing, please send us an email. We hope to form a team of 12 players, so you wouldn’t have to play every week. We will hold a tryout and the lowest 12 will form the team!
