SATURDAY NIGHT SHOOT-OUTS

The June Shoot-Out held on Saturday, June 27th brought plenty of excitement as teams battled in one of our most entertaining formats. The Shoot-Out continues to be a favorite event for players and spectators alike, and we encourage everyone to come out and participate or cheer on the finalists. Our next Shoot-Out takes place on July 18th, and if previous months are any indication, it should deliver another exciting finish. Whether competing or watching, this event always provides plenty of drama and fun. HOW THE SHOOT-OUTS WORK? Sign up as a two-person team and play an alternate shot format with elimination to have a monthly winner. The lowest net team scores will advance to the next hole until only two teams remain going to the 9th and final hole. Teams can be men or women or a mix. Handicaps will be given at 50% of the team total off the low team in the Shoot-Out. Strokes are given as they fall on the card and will be adjusted when the low team is eliminated. Enter a team with the Starter 828-526-6446 (Call or Text) This event is always popular and there are a maximum number of teams permitted. $40 per Team (Top 3 Teams are Awarded)
