Today we had our CMGA Family Scramble. We had 50 teams today out enjoying their time with family!

We also had some very young kids out which is a great way to get them introduced to the game. We had Zoe Williams, Raylan Roberts, Kolbie Stiles, Nolan Haines, Hudson Smith, Cash Tyson, James Tyson, and Carson Womack all under the age of 12 playing with their families!

Today’s low score was a 61 shot by Gary and Pam Borland. A big congratulations to them for shooting 10 under par in a 2 person scramble!

Today during our Thursday League, Rod Harmon stepped up to hole #8 and made his first hole in one of his career!

Rod was 134 yards away from the pin that is slightly uphill. He hit his 8 Iron (140 Club) right at the pin and watched it drop right in the cup!

His witnesses were Frank Messner, Rick Williams, and Darrel Larson.

Be sure to congratulate Rod on this awesome golf experience next time you see him out on the course!

Each player had to make a decision on what 3 clubs out of their bag they would use for all 18 holes. It is a lot of fun and you see so many different ideas on what clubs to use. From teeing off with an iron, to putting with a wedge, there is so many different shots you have to create out on the course.
