You should always try to have your putt enter the center of the
cup, but which center? The center of the cup is the ball’s point of
entry depending on the break of your putt. The front of the cup is
only the center on straight putts.

You should always try to have your putt enter the center of the cup, but which center? The center of the cup is the ball’s point of entry depending on the break of your putt. The front of the cup is only the center on straight putts.
If your putt breaks from left to right, the ball should enter the cup from the left side. This will open up the entire cup to sink your putt.
When putting on a practice green, place a dime next to the cup’s edgeto target where you want the ball to enter. By putting to the proper center of the cup you will have less lip-outs and lower scores.
Jack & Jill Tournament Raises $1,435
To help raise money for breast cancer research, 92 Ridgemark Golf Course members teamed up for the Jack & Jill tournament earlier in July. Simply playing with a couple of balls with breast cancer logos helped raise more funds.
Members were separated into teams of four, and played in flights of four. Winners of the first flight with a score of 123 was the team of Doreen Abbot, Kyle Abbott, Dawn Wielen and George Wielen. In the second flight the winners with a score of 130 were Ann So, Hank So, Kikue Cloud, and Bill Cloud. In third flight, with a score of 124, the winners were Wilma Bridge, Tom Bridge, Neddie Turner and Joe Rocha. In the final flight, the winners, with a score of 122, were Mary Hachiski, Lee Hachinski, Barbara Kayser and Ken Kayser.
Thanks to everyone who helped raise $ 1,435! It was a great job by the course’s members, helping a great cause.
Fired, Divorced, and Alone
Have you ever listened to how golfers talk to themselves on the golf course? They would be fired, divorced and alone if golfers talked to their co-workers, spouse, and friends the way they talk to themselves on the golf course.
After hitting a bad shot, many golfers call themselves an idiot and talk about how they will probably continue to hit bad shots for the rest of the round. After talking to themselves like that, how are they surprised when the next shot is bad?
We need to be our own best friend and personal cheerleader on the golf course. You don’t come out to the golf course and pay money to yell at yourself. You come out enjoy a round of golf and have a good time with a few of your golfing friends.
