New Drawing Format! Up to FIVE draws!
Ok, here is how it works….
Beginning in June, instead of two drawings per Family Night
we will have up-to FIVE drawings per night depending on
how large the pot has grown. Each successive drawing of the
night will be reduced by $100. For example, if the pot is at
$500, the first drawing is for $500, the second drawing is for
$400, third is $300, Fourth drawing is $200. The fifth and last
drawing is for $100. We will continue to grow the pot with
$50 per week anytime the pot is under $500. Another
example would be if the pot is at $250, then the first drawing
would be $250, the second drawing would be $150, and the
last drawing would be for $50. If no one wins, we will
increase the pot by $50 for next week. Figuring out the odds
on this would take a Las Vegas Shark, but one thing is for
sure, we will have MORE WINNERS!

FREE IN HOME ESTIMATES
Members of the club are expected to pay their accounts in-full on a monthly basis. If a member's account is over 30 days past
due, the member is assessed a $20 late payment fee. Daily Pro Shop charges will be paid before leaving each day either by cash,
check or credit card. If a member's account is over 60 days past due, the membership and all privileges to the club are suspended
and the membership is terminated.
In some cases, which require approval by management, the former member may reinstate their membership by paying the
account in-full, plus monthly dues that have passed in the interim. Otherwise, the member cannot make application to the club for
a period of one calendar year from the time that their membership is terminated and only then if the account has been paid in-full.

I know it's been really hot and busy in the last few
weeks but hasn't it been great. Tournaments in full
swing, summer vacations, swimming pool and rain
dancing. Every year at this time we look to the one cloud
in the sky and hope it is the early arrival for the rain for
the evening. Nothing like a good West Texas
thunderstorm. I know it can bring in the bad stuff but it is
music to sleep by in this little mind.
For those not taking advantage of the pool you are
truly missing out. We have had our grandkids out
several times and it is wonderfully refreshing after golf.
Sometimes the man even puts on a swimming suit. He
thought he would get out of it because his suit was worn
out...fooled him. Bought him another one. The guards
are nice, the area is clean and maintained. Lots of fun!
South Plains got under way at the Crest. We are tied
with (ugh) Lakeridge with five points. I thought I wrote
down who got points but cannot find it. Sometimers! The
next South Plains will be at Shadowhills at 8:30 on the
9th of August. September will be at Reese on the 6th,
the day after our Ladies Labor Day scramble on
September 5th.
The business July business meeting we early ordered
some neck coolers for the next Silver Tees
tournament. Good thinking! The next meeting will be on
the 16th of August right after play that morning. Works
out right about lunchtime. How nice is that! See you
there!
Last bit of news is to keep in mind the Ladies Club
Championship will be on the 17th and 18th of
September. Mark it on your calendars.
Thanks for being you
Golf Course Update
The Month of July has brought back memories of
2011 and 2012, 100 degree day after 100 degree day.
There has been little relief and not much rain fall. The
non- irrigated areas are just dry to the bone and the
irrigated areas are stressed to the max. As mentioned
many times in the past, to get the necessary amount of
water down on the course each and every day, we need
to start watering before it gets dark. Usually not before
7pm but if we don’t get some relief we may need to start
even earlier. A couple of 85 degree days and a couple of
small rain events would help out a great deal, but August
is usually the driest of the summer months and it is not
uncommon to go the whole month of August without
rain.

Greetings Tennis Players,
This months newsletter touches on a player's mindset and
how to view things on court. Author Jackie Reardon terms
this "friendly eyes". It is important to make the effort in
training sessions and matches to look at the way you are
playing with friendly eyes. As soon as you notice you are
starting to beat yourself up and are becoming irritated with
your game, look at your actions without judging them (with
friendly eyes). That means accepting that you can't do more
than your best and that every action is part of a learning
process. You know that the learning process will help you
progress, which means that every action successful or not) is
part of your development. This acceptance alone induces a
better match mentality. If you continually pay attention to
this, you will notice a dramatic change in your
attitude. Playing with friendly eyes is not something you can
learn in a week, but you will notice a steady improvement
over time.
Try it!!!
Also, Hillcrest is hosting a junior tournament, part of the
Junior Tennis Circuit, on Sat, Aug 6th. Contact the pro shop
for more information.
