Golf NewsGolf Shop News With Joe Titus
Golf Shop(Open Wednesday through Saturday, 9:00am-4:00pm)
Happy New Year!! We hope everyone had a safe and fun New Year. It is hard to believe that 2013 is upon us. Even though the holiday buzz has ended and the snow and temperatures continue to fall, please remember that the Golf Shop remains open all winter long. Golf Shop hours of operation are Wednesday through Saturday, 9:00am – 4:00pm. We are staying busy, gearing up for the 2013 season with tournament and lesson programming in addition to finding the latest and greatest in merchandise and equipment.
LessonsThe nets are up by now and this time we hung them in the golf shop. The golf shop provides a much brighter and warmer environment to take a lesson. It’s also a good time to start those season long lesson packages. Why winter lessons?? The sometimes bad to break habits have the best chance to evolve into good habits because there is no impending tournament or focus on ball flight. Flexibility is also a major factor in proper swing technique. Keeping the muscles loose or increasing the range of motion will enable a faster start to the season. Lastly, it’s a proven fact that many lessons lead to improvement and the season long lesson package is a cost effective way to accomplish your goals. Ask around….
Season-long Lesson Package (Includes Video)
Joe Titus, PGAAdult $900
Junior $600 (15 & under)
Family $1500 (Up to 3 family members)
Greg Roberts Adult $800
Junior $500 (15 & under)
Family $1400 (Up to 3 family members)
Winter Only Special$200 for 5 lessons ($50 savings)
This package allows the option to upgrade to the season long package once spring hits.
Custom Corporate MerchandiseWe can put your company logo or personal customization on any of the items below free of charge. Need ideas or samples, we can provide those free of charge as well.
I would like to personally extend this opportunity for you to obtain gift and promotional items for your business from the Golf Shop at Hawthorn Woods Country Club. The ideas and options are almost endless!! We have everything you need to promote your organization or to award your staff.
Possible gift and promotional items:
Custom-logo Golf Balls
Embroidered Caps
Office Products
Golf Shirts
Jackets
Fleece Outerwear
Travel Gear
Custom Ball Markers
Custom Ball Repair Tools
The list of available companies includes, but is not limited to, Nike, Adidas, Cutter & Buck, Ashworth, Titleist, and Fairway & Greene, Tervis Tumbler, CMC, Lorente Gifts and accessories.
As a service to our membership, we would like to extend our special pricing onto you. We will gladly accommodate orders of any size. Please contact me with any questions. Let our business help your business!
Kind Regards,
Joe A. TitusPGA Head Golf Professional
January is here and the course is sleeping. This break in
maintenance gives our department an opportunity to set
the stage for the upcoming season. In the shop we are
busy with equipment rebuild. This involves cleaning and
servicing all equipment, grinding reels, and replacing
bearings and seals, among many other equipment related
tasks. Additionally we are in the process of refurbishing
all golf course equipment such as ball washers and tee
markers. We will spend time cleaning and organizing the
equipment storage areas as well as making minor repairs
and upgrades to the staff lounge, bathrooms and offices.
Beyond that, this is the time to set the plan for the season
ahead. By the end of winter, we will have a schedule
of all fertilizer and chemical applications, topdressing
applications, cultural practices such as verticutting, and
when aerification will occur and the process and materials
needed, as well as a list of possible projects to undertake as
well as timing. While this schedule is flexible, it provides us
a guide to make sure we are continuously moving forward.
With snow on the ground now, I know some of you will be
utilizing the golf course for cross country skiing. With the
potential for damage, I ask that you please keep your trails
away from all greens and tees.
While we may feel like we are in the deep freeze right now,
I suspect we are less than 90 days from cleaning up and
getting the season underway. We opened in early March
last year if you remember the stretch of 80 degree days that
arrived unexpectedly early. Sunny, warm days are not far
away.
