| | Friday, April 26, 2024 | Mel Carreras |
The year’s first “Major” tournament is in the books. Last weekend we played the Paul Revere Cup. Despite tough conditions, Mel Carreras successfully defended the title that he first won last year. Firing a net 69 (-2), Mel edged out runners-up Rob Justice (70) and Bill Kennedy (70) by a single shot. Walter Scott posted even par 71 to finish solo 4th. The trio of Mike Champagne, Steve Jepsen, and Steve Tunney shot 72 to share 5th place.
Congratulations to all the winners, and remember, all results are posted on the club website.
Spring Four-Ball Qualifying: Tomorrow (4/28) we have the start of the Spring Four-Ball. Teams will tee it up with the hopes of advancing to the match play portion of the tournament. And we all know, once match play begins, anything can happen.

Work continues on the new tees on holes #2 & 4. Play all construction areas as ground under repair. Also. . .we are currently playing the ball up (preferred lies) in your own fairway.
And...as we start a new year, we remind all members to please observe golf etiquette and be sure to take care of your golf course. Always remember to replace ALL divots. Repair ANY ball marks you see on the greens (even if they were from somebody else). Rake the bunkers when done, and please be aware of your pace of play. Cart riders can also do their part to minimize wear and tear on the golf course, by observing all cart traffic signs.
Have a Great Golfing week! Kevin | | | | | The Fairway Wood is probably as difficult a club to hit as any in the bag. It’s hugely useful if you can hit it consistently, but almost a waste of space in the bag if you can’t. Improvements in face technology to increase forgiveness across the face are welcome. | | | The fitting and setup of this club is critically important. Everything you can do to make sure the ball launches easily and accurately, should be done. That includes investing time to find the shaft that translates difficult into easy. An assessment and fitting is of paramount importance. | | | | | Make sure the Fairway Woods and Hybrids in your bag are as easy to use as possible, and integrated so that you have no big distance gaps or overlap from the clubs at the top of your bag. | | | | | | | Whether we’re coaching them, or you’re out with your child on the course or Range, never forget the need for FUNdamentals. Yes, we want to teach the FUNdamentals of balance, movement and coordination. Yes, we want to make sure they grasp the FUNdamentals of hitting a golf ball. Sure, we want them to have the FUNdamentals of how to play the game. But, we want it to always be FUN. | | | But actually, it shouldn’t be different for anyone coming to learn the game. There are four steps, and each child, or golfer, can decide where is far enough for them. | | | | | Whether it’s introducing golf to your child, helping them master the fundamentals, or taking them to new levels of expertise, we want to help. Come and talk to us about the best way to introduce golf to your child or how to develop their ability. | | | | | | This mail was sent to {{contact.contact_email}} by Kevin Wilczewski and is provided as a service for the members and guests of Lexington Golf Club and has been supported and sponsored by advertisers in this email and our partner suppliers.
