Southern Hills MGA

Don’t forget that we have a quarterly meeting scheduled for this Saturday (May 25) at Wayne Simmon’s “pond house”. We will have a short meeting but more importantly we will have the opportunity to share fellowship with other members.

Wayne Simmons and RC Coleman will be cooking up a good Southern Style Fish Fry. Everyone is invited to come early and share in the fun of “catching dinner”.

We plan to eat about 6 PM followed by a short meeting.

Please bring your cooler filled with your favorite beverage.

If you plan to attend, PLEASE sign the sheet on the bulletin board so we know how much food we will need.

Hope to see you there!

As you may know, 24 players from Southern Hills GC participated in a “Ryder Cup” type of match against Grand Island Golf Club from Albany GA. 

On Saturday we hosted Grand Island here for 12 doubles matches using a Best Ball format. We were able to hand them a one-sided loss by besting them in 11 of the 12 matches. 

On Sunday we traveled to Albany to take on 24 individual matches. Although the victory was not quite as one-sided as the doubles matches, the players did us proud by winning 15 matches and tying 3 for a total of 16.5 points our of a total of 24 points. Given the fact that we were new to that course, as most of the players had never seen it before, I think we did outstanding.

Players from Albany have already expressed much interest in challenging us again next year.

The final point totals for the weekend were: Southern Hills 27.5 and Grand Island 8.5
