General Membership Meeting
Jun 12, 2018
Meeting called to order at 5:00 pm by President John Moynihan.
Minutes for May 8, 2018 meeting were approved.
Tip from Kenny E.
Situation: Your ball is sitting down in heavy rough around the green.
Do not try to ‘gouge’ it out; instead, play it like a bunker shot: come down steep,
complete the shot and let the club release – don’t try to keep the face open.
