Update from Secretary
First, thanks for hanging in there last night with the weather and my mistakes. Just want to get a few reminders out there as there has been some questions and concerns.
Remember we are still teeing off as Foursomes. If a player on a team does not show up, play as a foursome and a threesome, don’t play all 7 or even 6 together.
A reminder as we have new players in the league, play every shot out until ball is in the cup or your opponent gave permission to pick up the ball for the score you were laying. No max pick up rule.
Senior Tee rule. Once a player turns 70 prior to start of league play 4/16/2024, they have the personal option to move up to the Senior Tees. This is completely optional but must be declared at the beginning of the year to make handicaps fair for playoffs. Let me know who on your team is 70+ playing from the Senior Tees or indicate on scorecard during next round.
For the website, my goal is to have the standings/handicaps updated weekly by Thursday night, and no later than Sunday. Thanks for your patience as I learn the software and website.
Still starting league play at 5:30 until May 14th.
Questions/Concerns please reach out via phone call or text. Leave message if not available, contrary to popular belief I do work during the week. 406-750-9458. Thanks again everyone, let’s have a fun year!

Captain’s Meetings Update
During the past offseason I heard from a few team captains about the idea of trying 8 off the tee box. This was brought up during the captain’s meeting. I proposed this idea as a tryout basis to the captains and discussed trying it on the full course or per side. The decision was to try it once for each division on the front 9 only during league play of June 25th and July 2nd. Along with this a captain proposed we keep Fun Night but without points and was approved.
