GOLF NEWS
Tyler Young, Head Golf Professional
A Message from the Pro
The 2016 CCSC Golf Calendar is complete and it is time to get your golf game going in the right
direction! Take advantage of some nice, January days by coming out and enjoying the best practice
facility in the area! Make sure that you spend just as much time on the putting green as you do
hitting drivers down on the range tee itself. Putting counts for 35-40% of most people’s scores.
Those 5-footers really do matter! GOLF SHOP WINTER HOURS: If the temperature is
below freezing the Golf Shop will not open until 9:00 AM!!!
Congratulations
In December we had our annual Winter Member-Member. We had a great turnout and everyone
had an enjoyable time. Congratulations to all of the winners.

Upcoming Events
With 2015 in the books the End of Year Shootout list is complete and the Shootout is scheduled for
January 9th.
So you think our course is easy? Think again…. With January finally among us we decided to test
your skills and do a Superintendents Revenge Golf Tournament. It will be on January 16th starting
at 10 AM. Bo and his maintenance staff will set the course up however they want to entice your
nerves and see if you are a true golfer. This will be a two-man Captain’s Choice tournament based on
30% of combined team handicap.
I am looking forward to another great year with everyone and appreciate all you do to support the
Country Club of South Carolina. It will be a great year full of member events to participate in.
Encourage your friends to come join us as CCSC has so much to offer between the golf, pool, tennis,
dining, fitness center and all the member events you could want or need at great values! See you at
the club.

Bo Cooper, Golf Course Superintendent
This past year was very challenging with drought, then flooding, and unseasonably warm weather.
Disease pressure was the highest it’s ever been in the Carolinas’ with some golf courses losing large
amounts of turf due to Pythium fungi. We had some damage here but weathered the storm fairly
well. As usual the cold weather will return these next two months and hopefully we’ll get back to
normal with the turf going into dormancy rather than just hanging on such as it’s been doing lately.
As good as the turf looks at present, our transition in the spring should be very good.
The flood of October ravaged hole #17 pretty good but maybe something good came of it. We
used a lot of the silt that was cleaned up to fill in a few bunkers which I’m happy to say were sodded a
couple of weeks ago and are looking fantastic. We raised the cart path near where the fairway bunker
used to be on 17 and that has provided much needed protection from the high water we got in Black
Creek during the end of December. Our plans are to sod the bare area along #17 fairway so please be
please be patient until we get that done which hopefully will be this month.
We have roped off a few fairways for the winter playing season so please adhere to cart path on those
holes. These ropes will only stay up during the wet season and then as we dry up in the spring, we
will be back to normal with carts being allowed on those fairways again. I know it’s an inconvenience
but please bear with us and it will make those fairways so much better for the spring golf season, your
cooperation is greatly appreciated.
Let’s make 2016 a great year and hope to see you on the course.

Happy New Year! We are looking forward to many exciting events
in 2016.
The year starts off with the annual Aussie Open Round Robin on
January 30th, 3:00pm - 6:00pm. This semi competitive one day event is
becoming more and more popular because it provides a great opportunity
to prepare for the upcoming league season. Participants will play many
rounds of competitive tennis and will have a chance to win one of the
Australian Open inspired prizes. Early rounds of the Australian Open will
be playing on our big screen TV. Food and drinks will be provided. Entry is free for CCSC members,
