What an exciting Ryder Cup...
In all due respect to the USA team they were due a win and they did exactly that - win it. It was a great display of golf, and it's certainly excited everyone around York GC as the range and course has been very busy.
It may also be down to the glorious weather and many trying to make the most of reducing daylight hours.
Hmmm.....
Golf is a game of fine margins, and accuracy is key.
However when it comes to driving, it appears to be a whole different ball game as you can see from the picture...
It has been great to hear such great feedback about the Course Development work that is underway at the moment.
At the time of writing the 2nd and 4th have been completed (subject to turfing) and look absolutely superb.
The 5th is nearly completed and there are lots of happy members talking about the fairway bunker being filled in..
Great work by everyone involved and many thanks to those playing for co-operating with the work going on.
Many, many thanks to those of you who have kindly taken the time to fill in our Equipment survey. Whilst I get to see the feedback when the survey closes, I am aware there has been a lot of responses.
