GOLF NEWS




Calling All Casual Golfers at Seabrook
Do you enjoy playing golf just for the sake of the game, good fellowship, exercise, fresh air with no expectation about score? Is 9 holes enough? Don't really know anyone else like this to play with? We've got a game for you - ladies and gentlemen.


The Casual Golf Group at Seabrook Island was launched last month with casual golfers enjoying 9 holes on Ocean Winds followed by cocktails in Bohicket's. We will continue on a weekly basis playing 9 holes each and every Friday afternoon at 2:30 pm. The golf shop will arrange pairings and you may also request to play with someone.


To add a little interest to Friday afternoons post golf, Bohicket's has begun a Friday Happy Hour from 5 - 6:30 where all cocktails, beer and wine will be ½ price. Does it get any better? Remember - casual, no pressure or expectation - just play golf.


Please call or email the golf shop to get your name on the list. For those of you who don't know, we can be reached at 768-2529 or golf@discoverseabrook.com.


Adult Clinics
New winter hours - Tuesdays from 10:30 - 11:30 the professional staff conducts a short game clinic on pitching, chipping, putting, and bunker play. One week, we focus on chipping and putting. The next week, we focus on pitching and bunker. So, if you are beginner or just need a tune-up on the short game, call the Golf Shop, 768-2529, to sign up. The cost is $15.
Thursdays from 10:30 - 11:30 and Saturdays from 11 -12, the professional staff conducts a 1 hour clinic devoted to the full swing. This is a great way for you and your guests to get quality instruction prior to playing or just to hone your skills. Whatever your playing level, the full swing clinic can aid your swing development. The cost is $15.00
