Change to Pacific Women's Golf Association by Clare Shaffer

As you all know, we will be changing to the Pacific Women's Golf Association on January 1, 2009. Jean Hayward and I are already strategizing on how to convert everyone's handicap index to the GHIN system. Those of you who already have a GHIN number by virtue of being a member of the Roving Rascals and/or Hunter Ranch will keep that handicap. We won't be converting your PubLinks handicap since you already have one on the GHIN system. As a result, in order for your GHIN handicap to be accurate, you must continue to post your scores to the GHIN system every time you play. I've compared everyone's GHIN handicap to PubLinks and they are acceptably comparable with just a few exceptions. So however manner you're getting your scores to the GHIN system, keep on doing it. If you have any questions, please talk to me or Jean Hayward.

Golf Quotes

THERE ARE TWO THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR HEAD DOWN - PLAY GOLF AND PRAY.- Lee Trevino

A LITTLE GIRL WAS AT HER FIRST GOLF LESSON WHEN SHE ASKED AN INTERESTING QUESTION: 'IS THE WORD SPELLED P-U-T OR P-U-T-T?' SHE ASKED THE INSTRUCTOR. 'P-U-T-T IS CORRECT,' HE REPLIED. 'PUT MEANS TO PLACE A THING WHERE YOU WANT IT. PUTT MEANS MERELY A VAIN ATTEMPT TO DO THE SAME THING.'


THE ONLY THING IN MY BAG THAT WORKS IS THE BUG SPRAY.- Bruce Lansky

GOLF IS A GAME IN WHICH THE SLOWEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE THOSE IN FRONT OF YOU, AND THE FASTEST ARE THOSE BEHIND.

I'VE HAD A GOOD DAY WHEN I DON'T FALL OUT OF THE CART.- Buddy Hackett

RELAX? HOW CAN ANYBODY RELAX AND PLAY GOLF? YOU HAVE TO GRIP THE CLUB, DON'T YOU? - Ben Hogan

I FOUND OUT THAT ALL THE IMPORTANT LESSONS OF LIFE ARE CONTAINED IN THE THREE RULES FOR ACHIEVING A PERFECT GOLF SWING: 1. KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN.2. FOLLOW THROUGH.3. BE BORN WITH MONEY

YOU CAN MAKE A LOT OF MONEY IN THIS GAME. JUST ASK MY EX WIVES. BOTH OF THEM ARE SO RICH THAT NEITHER OF THEIR HUSBANDS WORK.

Couples Tournament - June 22

Jeff Weidler reports on the Couples Tournament on June 22nd.

Whack and Hack Couples Tournament hosted by Jeff & Suzanne Weidler - a fun format using the low and high net of the 4 person team added together on each hole with one exception. If there was a net birdie, then add the 2 low nets.

The winners had a net birdie on all but one hole. It was our biggest turnout for the couples tournament this year - 40 participants.

1st place with a 119 total: the speediest group on the course - Fred & Sue Edmundson and Tom & Cindi Bergin ($200)

2nd place with a 125 total: the high handicappers of Don Lipp, Jane Villafana, Jack & Josie Warner ($120)

3rd place with a 127 total: the sandbagging crew of John & Grace Bergin and Ray (the double popper) & Chris Anselmi ($80)

Closest to the pin ladies: Trudy Engberg 8'8" and yes she made the putt ($13)
and 2nd place Linda McCornack 13'1" ($7)

Closest to the pin men: Rich Sinclair 10'10' ($13) and 2nd place Fred Edmundson 22'5" ($7)

This and That

Here are some items that got left out of the newsletter.

Pam Finley wanted everyone to know that her husband, Bob, trimmed the tree on #13 so we have a better chance of getting our ball on the green! Thank you, Bob. That tree has gobbled up a lot of my drives!

Donna Ferguson chatted with Jayne Donkin last week and discovered that she had to go down to Burbank to get an "adjustment" on her pacemaker! She's doing fine now and will be back to playing golf in a month.

And, we have a new member - Josette Warner.

If anyone has anything for the blog, just let me know!

Caddy Humor

These are the Top 5 Caddy Replies:

Golfer: "Think I'm going to drown in the lake."
Caddy: "Think you can keep you head down that long."

Golfer: "I'd move Heaven and Earth to break a 100 on this course."
Caddy: "Try Heaven, you've already moved most of the Earth."

Golfer: "Do you think my game is improving?"
Caddy: "Yes sir, you miss the ball much closer now."

Golfer: "Do you think I can get there with a 5 iron?"
Caddy: "Eventually."

Golfer: "You've got to be the worst caddy in the world."
Caddy: "I don't think so sir. That would be too much of a coincidence."

Golfisms

Never try to keep more than 300 separate thoughts in your mind during your swing.

When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit one more club or two more balls.

If you're afraid a full shot might reach the green while the foursome ahead of you is still putting out, you have two options: you can immediately shank a lay-up or you can wait until the green is clear and top a ball halfway there.

The less skilled the player, the more likely he is to share his ideas about your golf swing.

No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse

The inevitable result of any golf lesson is the instant elimination of the one critical unconscious motion that allowed you to compensate for all of your many other errors.

If it ain't broke, try changing your grip.

Everyone replaces his divot after a perfect approach shot.

A golf match is a test of your skill against your opponents' luck.

It is surprisingly easy to hole a fifty-foot putt... for an 8.

Counting on your opponent to inform you when he breaks a rule is like expecting him to make fun of his own haircut.

Nonchalant putts count the same as chalant putts.

It's not a gimme if you're still away.

The shortest distance between any two points on a golf course is a straight line that passes directly through the center of a very large tree.

There are two kinds of bounces; unfair bounces and bounces just the way you meant to play it.

You can hit a two-acre fairway 10% of the time and a two-inch branch 90% of the time.

If you really want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a much earlier age.

Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three.

When you look up, causing an awful shot, you will always look down again at exactly the moment when you ought to start watching the ball if you ever want to see it again.

Every time a golfer makes a birdie, he must subsequently make two triple bogeys to restore the fundamental equilibrium of the universe.

If you want to hit a 7 iron as far as Tiger Woods does, simply try to lay up just short of a water hazard.

There are two things you can learn by stopping your back-swing at the top and checking the position of your hands: how many hands you have, and which one is wearing the glove.

Hazards attract, fairways repel.

You can put a draw on the ball, you can put a fade on the ball, but no golfer can put a straight on the ball.

A ball you can see in the rough from 50 yards away is not yours.

If there is a ball on the fringe and a ball in the bunker, your ball is in the bunker; if both balls are in the bunker, yours is in the footprint.

It's easier to get up at 6:00 AM to play golf than at 10:00 to mow the yard.

A good drive on the 18th hole has stopped many a golfer from giving up the game.

Golf is the perfect thing to do on Sunday because you always end up having to pray a lot.

If your opponent has trouble remembering whether he shot a six or a seven, he probably shot an eight.

Golf Hazards

There is a reason you don't go into the desert looking for your golf ball!

Something New

I'm trying something new. I made a little "video" from pictures Gennie took the last month or so. I can't figure out how to "import" it to this site, but maybe you can access the following site and view it. Let me know if it works!

May Newsletter

The May Newsletter was emailed today, and will be in the proshop to be picked up on Tuesday. (I will try to get it over there Sunday before the couples tournament, but I'm not making any promises.)

Everyone did a super job on the Invitational - it was lots of fun, and very well run! Kudos to everyone involved.

By the way, one of the male foursomes playing Friday was my neighbor, and even he commented on the decorations in the lady's room by #12! I guess the guys were peeking in to see what all the commotion was about! They couldn't believe there was a plant in there! I think the mirror should stay.

If someone will send me the results of the invitational, I will post them on the blog!

Thanks
