Tee Assignments/Results
 
MAY 28 (TUESDAY)
RI Women’s state Invitational
OPEN – 9:00 SHOTGUN
Course: Agawam Hunt
15 Roger Williams Ave * Rumford, RI
401-434-0980  www.agawamhunt.org
Format: Male/Female
Ladies Red Tees/Men White Tees

Both players hit their tee shots, choose one and now alternate shots until you hole out. So…you both hit  tee shot, choose the one you want, if you use your partner’s drive-you hit next then he hits til you hole out. And no, your partner may not replace your Solo for his ProV to putt-you must both use the selected ball in play all the way in. On the next hole, you start all over with both hitting tee shots, etc. This is not like the State Mixed where you have to determine ahead of time who’s driving on the odd or even holes. Any questions-please ask.

Must use at least 2 drives from each player.

Entries must include each player’s GHIN #.
Entry Fee: Members $140 per team ~ Non-members $160 per team
Entry Form
Cart and lunch included. Kindly remove hats and visors before entering the dining room-thanks.
Prizes: Divisions/Gross & Net will be based on the field.
Entry: Opens May 14th & Closes May 21st

Funny!

The Rugged Outdoor Woman
During her physical examination, a doctor asked a retired woman about her physical activity level. The woman said she spent 3 days a week, every week in the outdoors.
“Well, yesterday afternoon was typical; I took a five hour walk about 7 miles through some pretty rough terrain. I waded along the edge of a lake. I pushed my way through 2 miles of brambles. I got sand in my shoes and my eyes. I barely avoided stepping on a snake. I climbed several rocky hills. I went to the bathroom behind some big trees. I ran away from an irate mother bear and then ran away from one angry bull Elk. The mental stress of it all left me shattered. At the end of it all I drank a scotch and three glasses of wine.Amazed by the story, the doctor said, “You must be one hell of an outdoor woman!”"No,” the woman replied, “I’m just a really, really lousy golfer”.
