Spring is in the air… trees are blooming, lawns are getting greener, baseball’s back and let’s not forget about the Masters. April is typically the month where golf starts to pick up here at Loch Lloyd as well. Many of you will kick the dust of your clubs and our “snowbirds” start returning bringing more action to the club as the month advances.
It’s time to sign up for this year’s Pride Club membership. The Pride Club is Loch Lloyd Country Club’s Golf Shop “merchandise club”. Your $200 investment goes straight to your credit book, and you begin the instant savings. 10% off all hard goods, 20% off apparel and a one-time 40% off apparel only purchase It pays to be a Pride Club member! Don’t forget, the golf shop matches all prices and already has the lowest golf ball pricing in the area.
As we start to slowly warm up and more people start playing golf again, please respect your fellow members and the golf course itself by pairing up on golf carts. Pairing up puts far less stress on the golf course because cart traffic is minimized and believe it or not, pairing up also helps control pace of play.
Be on the lookout for emails regarding Golf Club Fitting Days. These fitting days are a great way for you to get a personalized “fine-tuned” fitting. The Golf Professionals will be on the range along with representatives from the club manufacturers.
Finally, I hope you have all had a chance to look at the 2023 Golf Calendar. Its jam packed with all of our traditional events along with many more fun and fantastic events Let’s have a great season and I can’t wait to see all of you playing more golf.
Play ready golf and see you on the first tee,
HIGHLAND GAME- MASTERS EDITION
All members are invited to join us on Saturday, April 8th for a great day of golf on “Moving Day” at the Masters. This is a unique and fun way to enjoy a round of golf, no matter what time of the day you are playing. Everyone that participates will play their own ball. Here is the fun part…. before play each participant will choose a professional playing in the Masters and combine his Sunday score with your Saturday Net score Those two combined scores will be your final tournament score. Flights will be determined by which set of tees you play. Winners will be announced Tuesday morning and Golf Shop credits will be applied to your account Cost of the event is $20
