About the Pinseekers |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Bay Area Pinseekers comprises about sixty men and
women golfers.
We hold seventeen to nineteen tournaments a year at top venues like Silverado, Hiddenbrooke, Poppy Ridge, Shadow Lakes, Metropolitan, Wente Vineyards and many others. Tournaments are always played mid-week, never on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, and most fees are in the $50 to $60 range, which includes your cart. A big event every year is our Family Fun weekend. Past years were Napa and Reno, this year is the Monterey Peninsula. Bring your wife, husband, domestic partner or significant other for three days of golf, dinner and relaxation at a premium resort. At the end of the year we hold a banquet, award a Club Champion, Runner Up, and Most Improved Golfer, and raffle off a host of prizes. Being a non-profit organization, we return any money not spent between January and December to the membership in the form of gifts and prizes at the banquet. The club's annual membership dues are $80, which includes your NCGA membership. The benefits of NCGA membership are not only a official USGA Handicap Index, but sunstantial discounts on green fees and memberships at Poppy Ridge and Poppy Hills golf coures. Handicaps among the members range from the high 20's down to single digits, with an even distribution, so there is a great mix of playing companions. We play by the Rules of Golf. No gimme putts, no bumping the ball in the fairway -- courtesy and respect for others as well as the golf course are mandatory. We replace divots, fix ball marks, and rake bunkers. We curse every drive that hooks into a hazard; we lament every chilly-dipped wedge shot; and we fall ill to every missed putt inside the throw-up zone. Yet always have a good time. And oh yeah ....... No slow play. If you think you're interested,
e-mail us at Bay Area Pinseekers
with any We'll be glad to make the arrangements. |
