Tournament Change

The “scratch” flight will continue. All prizes in this flight will be based on gross score only – no handicaps. This flight will tee off from a different tee box. At Woodfin Ridge this flight will tee off from the blue tees which will make the course play approximately 6,400 yards. I would expect that most our single digit handicap players will opt to compete in this flight. You must let me know you want to be placed in this flight. Please insert a note with your check or email me. I think Hunter’s Creek played at the same distance, but because of the rain, it seemed longer. I did ask the pro to move the green tees to forward positions on the teeing ground, but because of the rain, that was not done. I will make the same request at Woodfin Ridge.
