Stats have been updated.

Results for Lions are now available.

• CTGA welcomed New Members MARNIE ADAMS and ALYONA DYE to our Lions Muny event.
• Our next event is at Legends on LBJ.  Director Steve Barnes played the course last week and said both greens and fairways are excellent.  This is a fun course to play.
• Yesterday’s Pace was marginal.  However, the problem wasn’t all CTGA.  It was mostly due to the 20+ player group in front of our event that had mostly 5-somes and who apparently had little regard for consistent Pace.  My group was the first CTGA foursome behind this party.  Our actual start time was 10:39 (7 minutes late) and we finished at 3:36(4:57 play time).  It was frustrating as we waited on every shot from the tee and the fairways.  Our last foursome start time was around 1:10, almost 25 minutes late and their finish time was about 6:30 (5:20 play time).  We will continue to strive to achieve our 4:30 Pace goal and we thank all players for your part in making it happen.

• CTGA turnouts continue to be outstanding this early in the year.  Needless to say, the abnormal weather conditions are helping.  We still have room for 2 more player.  If your plans have changed and you’re interested, let me know ASAP.
• Because we have 2 Blind Draw Teams, we won’t know the Flights several teams will be in until we draw the Blind Draw Partners on Saturday. 
• Let’s all continue to play at an acceptable Pace on Saturday.  Remember, it’s much more fun playing in 4 hours than it is to drag a round beyond 5 hours.  Excessive Slow PlayWILL result in penalties.
