HAPPY NEW YEAR!!   As we enter into this new year  may the Golf Gods be kind and watch over us, helping the drives to be long and straight, the short game much improved and all the putts to be smooth and true. 
 
                    The 2012 Men's Club applications are now available for pickup at the pro shop accompanied by the Bellevue Men's Golf Club tournament schedule.  Be sure to pick one up and sign up early. 
 
            The Senior tournament schedule is easy to remember.  All eight Senior Tournaments will be held on the third Wednesday of every month beginning in March and ending in October.  These tournaments are always fun offering a variety of formats.  If one shoots on or near his handicap, his odds of being in the money are very good.  If you havae not played in one of the senior tournaments in the past, do so this year beginning with an early one in March or April.  Once you have participated in one, the odds of returning are very good.  
 
              If you are wondering what to do on these somewhat dreary Wednesdays during the winter, come on out and join the Senior group.  We play every Wednesday, rain or shine (sometimes the rain does get the better of us). We sign in by 8:30 and our first tee time is 8:52.  Regardless of the weather, FUN is the key component with the 19th hole being a good finishing stop.  If you want to join us, please respond to this email or give me a call at 425-746-0975.

           As we enter the new year we should all make a resolution to try and fix our ball marks on the greens and to replace our divots.  A very simple task that we all seem to overlook at times.  A second resolution would be for us  to check in with the pro shop at least twenty minutes prior to your tee time and to the tee box five minutes before your tee time.  It is the stragglers that many times slow the game for the rest of the groups behind them.
 
          Until next time remember that winter golf can be fun.  Dress for it and I hope to see you on a tee box soon.
