Men’s Golf Club
At the Leisure World Men’s Golf Club Tournament played on Sept. 22, 50 golfers vied for best net scores (gross score minus handicap), plus four circle holes (shots within a 5-foot circle rewarded) and two closest-tothe- pin challenges. The Turtle Lake Golf Course is a 1,658-yard, 18-hole, par-54 course, that has great fairways and greens. This week, on the front nine, golfers teed off using the red tees, while on the back nine, they used blue tees.
A Flight encompasses golfers with handicaps of 0-7, B Flight is 8-11, and C Flight is 12-18. All scores below are net (gross score minus handicap).
