Putting Practice Variety

The expansive new putting green adjacent to #1 tee offers an infinite number of opportunities for practicing putts of any length.  The green currently has six traditional putting green cups, which we change on a regular basis.  However, we have also added several "cupless flagstick markers" for you to use as a target.


There are a couple of potential benefits from these markers.  From a golfer's perspective, they will allow you to move the target to any location on the green, and set up your own putting course.


From a maintenance perspective, we are hopeful that giving players the ability to relocate their putting target will help to distribute the wear on the turf more evenly.  In prior years, we have seen significant turf damage from a single player's feet after practicing a four or five foot putt over and over from the same spot.
