Message from our President
It is that time of year for nominations for various positions. Openings are:
3 Board of Directors
1 President
1 Vice President
1 Secretary
1 Treasurer - Tom Vardase has said he would run for reelection
Now is the time to step up and run for an office. It is not terribly time consuming. By being in one of these positions you will help the SGAA continue to be as viable in the future as it is today. The by laws state that when a member of the Board of Directors term is over he must wait for 1 year to run again. This was put in place to hopefully get more members involved.
I know from my business days that about 10% of an organization will volunteer. Now is the time for you to be one of that 10%.
Please let me know that you would like to be nominated by contacting me at:
cell: 678-662-6012
Don't wait rather let me know now. Don't delay and wish you had become involved.
Bill Palmer
Want to try your short game?
No it won't be THAT Par 3
However we will have a Par 3 tournament at Providence Club on Monday, August 23rd with a 8:30 AM shotgun start. The entry fee will be $10.
It’s great that you long hitters can get 250+ yards off the tee; but how good is your short game? Don’t think you’ve got it where you want it to be? Then it’s time to get it together because in a few short weeks you’ll be put to the test.
That’s right; SGAA is holding another Par 3 Tournament at the Providence Club on Monday, August 23rd. This will be a shotgun start at 8:30 AM. Special $10 per player table fee applies for this event. Payouts will be the same as our normal dogfight tournaments plus a low gross for each flight.
There’s only a few short weeks left to dial in those distances and hone your aiming skill before this event
Closest to the pin reminder
Please ensure you write your name on the correct placard
On the Par 3 holes, please ensure you are writing your name and your CORRECT member number on the placard that matches your CURRENT handicap. When you use the incorrect placard, you disqualify not only yourself but all others in that flight.

Quiters never get the ball in the hole.
If you quit on your putting stroke or fail to make a good follow-through, your putts will often end up short of the hole. To correct this, make a shorter backstroke and then accelerate through impact to a finish that has your putter in the air and facing the hole. Stroke your putts in a manner that seems like the ball just gets in the way. This way, you will develop a sense of stroking through at impact rather than hitting at the ball.
