Golf Simulator Open House – November 10th With the weather starting to turn, now is a great time to get your winter golf practice/lesson program organized. We have a great facility to take advantage of and keep your golf game in shape during the upcoming winter months. I’ve found that just some routine practice keeps my golf muscles in shape and short game still sharp. The indoor center at Glen View Club has two hitting bays with video and is a great way to work on possible swing changes in a controlled environment without the visual effect of ball flight. With our TrackMan unit and our golf simulator, you can still see what your ball flight would look like. | Many members have asked about the equipment downstairs and how to use it. To make it easier, Chris Green and I will be holding an Open House on Saturday, November 10th from 8-11am in the Pro Shop Basement to walk everyone through how to use the equipment and see all of the options that members have available. You will also be able to get your winter lesson program set up that day as well. Congratulations to Chris Green for being named to Golf Digest's Best Young Teachers in America. The announcement will be in the November issue of Golf Digest. Join us on Saturday, November 17th from 1-6pm to see the latest in Kjus ski and lifestyle apparel. This will be the only opportunity for us to order items from the Kjus ski line and all items ordered will be here in time for the holidays. TS is Titleist Speed. The total redesign of a driver to deliver speed that matters to you. We just received all of the new TS2 and TS3 driver and fairway wood heads for our fitting cart.

| | You’d expect us to want to benchmark your tee shot performance, but your launch DNA is a whole assessment all on its own. We want to know how do you rate your performance off the deck with hybrids and fairways? | | | | For each of a hybrid and a fairway wood the questions are: Can you make consistent contact and how consistent? Can you launch the ball on a high enough trajectory? Can you keep the ball within fairway width or is your accuracy erratic? | | | | For most of our golfers, longer Par 4’s, and certainly Par 5’s, require the use of metalwoods from the fairway. Some avoid those clubs. Clubs carried but very rarely used. For most, they get used, but with a bit too much hit and hope. | | | Do not allow inconsistency with your metalwoods to hold you back. Whatever handicap or experience you are, if you want to take on a full golf course challenge, then put some time into being able to exploit the opportunity metalwoods offer you. | | |
