1 Scant TSP Baking Soda

1/2 TSP Ground Nutmeg

1/2 Pound Unsalted Butter

Directions

2 Large Eggs

NotesFromthePro

Please remember to follow these guidelines when playing Yes it is warm and the grass may be greening up, but the sod has not taken root yet and will slip if walked on, especially on a slope

Please enter and exit the bunkers at the lowest point. This may not be near your ball, but this helps with minimizing deep footprints and helps keep the new sod in place. This procedure should always be used when in a bunker

Please DO NOT play off newly sodded areas The sod has not had a chance to grow and root to the ground Keep carts of all newly sodded areas ALWAYS RAKE THE BUNKER AFTER PLAYING OUT OF ONE!

New merchandise arrived just in time for Spring! We have Arnold Palmer inspired Masters Caps, new Stitch Bags, and a variety of new headcovers. Stop by the Pro Shop and get yours before it's gone!

OldNorthStateCourseClosedforSummer

Due to an extensive golf course project, the golf course at Old North State will be closed from mid-March through Labor Day

ProShopCheck-In

If you are playing golf at PNCC, you are required to check in with the Pro Shop in advance of your round. Checking in at the bag drop is not a satisfactory solution. Emergency calls or calls from members looking for same-day tee times go to the Pro Shop, and the Pro Shop needs to know which members are on the course. If the course is open and you're on the tee sheet, the Pro Shop is expecting you to be there Let them know when you arrive, or if you're not coming
