Greetings From the Prez The heat is on!! Soooooo, stay hydrated. Pat Koubek has scored an ace at the 17th hole of Longleaf. Pat used her 9 wood to accomplish the golfer’s dream shot on the 21st of July which just hap-pens to be Pat’s birthday!!! Congratula-tions, Pat!! Who’ll be next?? We have acquired two Proximity Markers from Accumark thanks to Ed DeWitt’s research into the market. They are quite simple to operate. Merely place the marker in the hole and extend the tape measure to the ball to determine the dis-tance. Rewind the tape and place the marker on the fringe out of the way of the next foursome. The markers have clips to hold a sheet in place on which we can record the results. There is a plastic cov-ering over the sheet to protect it from any precipitation, dirt, etc.. Please do not write your results on the plastic. While these markers are fairly sturdy, please treat them with care, after all, almost anything can be broken – just ask a child, or his/her parent.

course, has meals that are diverse and reasonably priced, and, hopefully a room where we can have some privacy. Not the simplest of tasks. They will pass this on to Jim High who then sends out the invita-tions. Jim is a conscientious fellow who verifies the information I have given him, making sure that I have not overlooked anything such as the dates and days matching, etc.. I have tested him from time to time and he’s always kept things straight. Jim also has to maintain an accu-rate roster with valid e-mail addresses. Tthese change monthly as we have new members to add. Every so often some-one’s computer scan will block our invita-tions and Jim tries to work with the indi-viduals to see to it that they receive our invitations. Once Jim has sent out the invitations we members respond. If you wish to bring a guest please indicate as much in your response. Include the guest’s name and handicap, please. For our newest members – there is a message board that comes with each invitation. On this board we ask that you post whether you are playing golf and socializing after-

or seen new names in the Newslet-ter. More of our friends and neighbors are finding out what a good group we have and how enjoyable our events can be. Good venues and excellent company are wonderful draws. Please introduce yourselves and make our new members feel welcome. We shall not be having a meeting this August as it’s the time of year when so many of us seem to take trips and are otherwise busy. Speaking of trips, we are looking at the end of October to head to the beach, save some time. Invitations. They seem so simple. The reason that they seem so simple is be-cause we have such a terrific crew han-dling them. The Golf Chair will contact a course and negotiate a time, a price and any incidentals. This information is passed on to Betty Hendrix for our 18 hole weekend events or to Jo Ann Dun-can for our 9 & Dines. Betty and Jo Ann will make reservations for us at a suit-able restaurant. They will endeavor to find a restaurant that is convenient to the

ward, just golf, or just socializing. If you want to request to play with a certain individ-ual this is the place to include your request. This information is important to Betty and Jo Ann who make arrangements with our res-taurant of choice so that they will have the proper number of wait staff to accommodate us. Whenever anyone has volunteered their home for us to socialize at after golf, they too, need to know how many to plan for. I , too, need this information to contact the golf course to insure that we have enough tee times, but not too many. Then Kathy Slot-ter and/or Eagle Earl arrange the pairings, print scorecards and starting sheets. There are some headaches that can accompany this task. To do this they need handicaps and any special requests. For our monthly meetings Bobbi has to do much of the same. I cannot emphasize enough the dif-ference that the efforts of our team make. I am most appreciative and I hope that you are, too.

From the Golf Chair We wrapped up our June play with an outing at Seven Lakes where Bobbi, Chuck and Norm at 12 under par prevailed by 2 shots over Pat, Michelle and Mike. Closest to the Pin for the Ladies was Martez while Chuck announced his return with another trip to the winner’s circle for the Gents. There were some individual highlights as Bobbi, Jeryl, Betty and Mike all had birdie twos but the most impressive shot was Mi-chelle rolling in a 66 foot putt for par on the 14th hole. Jeryl also parred two of the other par three’s. Well done!! Perhaps the real highlight of the day belongs to Eagle Earl as he persuaded Patty to have another of her Ice Cream Socials following the golf. We all scored well with the ice cream. Thanks, Patty, we appreciate your efforts and your ice cream!! On to Pinehurst #7 where we hosted the Charlotte Chapter while Mother Nature re-minded us all to stay hydrated. She also cranked up the heat just a bit. However, we persevered as Lynn Walker continued her fine play as she, Larry Knott, Doug Fitts and Renee Miller managed 14 under par to beat two teams tied for second at eleven under – Jolly Erickson, Nan Prosser, Phil DeTurk and Gary Getz, also Kathy Slotter, along with her handsome son, Brian, Sharon Geyer and Frank Barr. Fourth

place went to Tanya Young, Steve Su-chin and Mike Young who were an addi-tional 4 shots back. Dave Hirsch and Sue Frost took the Closest to the Pin awards. After the golf we dined at the new and improved dining room at #7 and we at least went away well fed. We had our always popular 3 Clubs and a Putter contest at Pinewild’s par three Azalea course. Peggy and Norm tied for first at 4 under par with Jo Ann a single stroke behind. Norm made the only birdie of the day on the first hole. Ed DeWitt had a fine 34, Norm a 35, Annette a 36, Mi-chelle and Eagle Earl each had 40’s as did Donna. Peggy had a fine 41 as did two of her playing companions, Patty and Margaret. Bobbi, Nancy and Lynn also had 41’s, but that scene was stolen by Mike who had a 29 (which I have first hand knowledge to be better than he usu-ally does with all 14 clubs!!). Closest to the Pin went to Michelle for the first time ever and Ed DeWitt. Way to go, Michelle!! Lynn hosted us us for another of her ex-cellent socials following the golf. Thanks, Lynn!! Off to Carolina Trace we trekked to tackle the Creek course, having played the Lake course earlier this year. In a first, an all male team consisting of Jim Legg, Norm and Steve eked out a one shot vic-tory over Frank, Ira and Eagle Earl who stormed to an early lead bolstered by Ea-gle Earl’s par on the 4th hole and Ira’s birdie on the 7th. Ira also had a fine 45 on the front nine. Jim and Steve kept their team within striking distance on the front and then Norm fired up a slick 42 on the inward nine to snatch victory away. Larry had a couple of birdies on the opening nine which include 4 threes en route to a fine 39. Mike had a pair of birdies, too, while Patty parred the 7th hole. Larry took first place in the Closest to the Pin contest but Betty had the shot of the day as her tee shot missed the pin by about an inch to take second place in the CTP portion. Betty is already a member of the Eagle Club having made an eagle at The Legacy but the ace would have been SWEET!! So would the drinks she would have bought. The Legacy is such a pretty course and one of our favorite venues so we had a 9 & Dine there. Nancy Vaitkevicius, one of our newest members, waltzed away by

three strokes ahead of Eagle Earl, with Betty third and Peggy tied with Jim Legg for fourth. CTP went to Ray #1 and Bob Flesca, another new member, #2. Norm, playing his home course, came in with a solid 42, Bob had an equally fine 43, while Kim made 3 pars, Patty had 2 but Martez had the lone birdie. We wrapped up our July schedule at Pinehurst #8 where, again, we hosted the Charlotte Chapter. We were fortunate to secure early morning tee times and took advantage of the “somewhat” cooler weather, if not the golf course itself. Tanya Young, Picnic Basket Patty and Roy Neal ‘ham and egged’ it to a 5 shot margin (17 under par) over Martez, Steve, Bobbi and Dave Courtright with Jo Ann, Eagle Earl, Margo Thronebury and Steve Getz another swing behind. The rest of the field finished back around even par. CTP for the first wave went to Donna DeCesare and Steve Suchin respectively. I still don’t have the sheet for the second wave and am hoping that whoever has it will get it to me. Steve had a couple of 2’s on par threes, while Roy had a fine 85. It was good to see Jolly Erickson back out again as it appears that her recovery from surgery has gone well, Kathy Eaton played only her second round of the year following hand surgery, good to see you out again, Kathy. Tom Hempstead brought his game and his always sharp sense of humor out, it’ll be good to see you more often, too, Tom. Our third, and final, clinic at Knollwood Fairways was well attended as several of us took advantage to shore up our scoring shots, with emphasis on trap play, chip-ping and putting. The feedback from our members and the staff at Knollwood Fair-ways has been very encouraging. As always, we request your feedback, especially the good stuff. Seriously, it’s all important. It’s helpful to know what pleases our members and, too, what dis-pleases us. Don’t be bashful.

ASGA in Spain — September 17 - 28, 2016 LAST CHANCE TO SIGN-UP! ASGA members are continuing to sign-up for the Spain trip this September. I know some of you have in your head that jingle

that plays during the Comfort Inn commercials . . . “should I stay or should I go,” so just think of one thing: when will you ever visit Spain if you don’t do it now? REALITY CHECK: When we signed hotel contracts, we reserve a BLOCK of rooms. Sixty days prior to our event, we have to return the unused rooms to the hotel for them to sell to the public. However,

although our blocks have been released, you may still attend subject to room and tee time availability. But the sooner you commit, the more likely you can get in. DETAILS OF OUR TRIP TO SPAIN THIS SEPTEMBER: First, 98 people from many chapters across the county have signed-up and paid. They see the value we’re giving them. So check out these details: Eleven nights - play four rounds of golf as part of the package. Play Valderrama as an optional course subject to additional tee time availability. Seven dinners included; group transportation within Spain included, both by high speed train and motor coach. Airfare on your own. SinglesGolf.com/Spain is where you need to go for more details, but here is more general info: Dates: Leave the USA on 9/16/16, arrive next day in Madrid. 11 nights / 12 days. Where: Ma-drid, Costa del Sol (Marbella), Seville. Payment: Prices vary based on whether you room by yourself or with a roommate and play upgraded golf. But you need to really get to the website for the details. NOTE: Before you sign-up and pay, please call the office to make certain we have room for you. Most likely, we will, for now at least.

Multi-Chapter Events — Monterey Peninsula! We are fortunate to live in a beautiful country. Part of being involved in ASGA is the opportunity to travel, play great courses in different lands and to meet new people and see established friends. If you’ve never been on a multi-chapter event, you’re missing a vital part of your membership. We recently announced the Monterey Peninsula, a multi-chapter event literally on the West Coast. This area is awesome. The views are magnificent. Sponsored by the Sacramento chap-er, you really need to check into the event. Full details of this

golf weekend at SinglesGolf.com/MontereyPeninsula Dates are October 27-29. Denver’s also hosting their event August 12-15. Always a great event and yes, balls go farther! For more details on this go to SinglesGolf.com/RockyMountainHigh.

Fall and Winter Ahead We’re looking to head to Hilton Head for our Fall “Battle at the Beach,” and have our post-New Year’s event at Sawgrass (where the Stadium course would be an optional round) in Ponta Vedra Beach, FL. We put these “possibilities” out to you ahead of time to get your input on them. Nothing firm yet so don’t purchase your airline ticket yet. In the winter of 2017, we’re looking at heading back to Hawaii where it’s always between 80 and 82 degrees. The would be a week-long event so stay tuned. And much-talked-about . . . many members have asked about a river cruise. Since 2000, river cruises have grown in popularity by 11% per year each year. One issue, of course, is that river cruise ships have a much smaller number of cabins than cruise ships. 60-75 cabins versus 2-3,000! So, if / when ASGA de-cides to do a river cruise, we believe it will sell-out fast. The interest is there; details forthcoming.

The Villages Not So Small

We “slightly” underestimated the number of golf courses at The Villages, location of our largest ASGA chapter in a previous issue of The Next Shot and I got called on it. After mentioning

their chapter’s growth success in this newslet-ter, this writer (whose name shall remain anon-ymous, at least until the next page), admits stating the incorrect number of courses at their very large layout. And it took a village to so inform me. I heard from a number of members and my thanks goes out to them.

After a quick glance at Wikipedia, I’ve determined that be-tween the executive, championship and country club courses, there are 1,314 holes of golf in this community. If you played 18 holes once a week, it would take you 73 weeks to get them all in. So in case you sleep with your golf clubs and think and dream of golf on a 24/7/365 basis, check out The Villages in central Flori-da if you’re ever in the area. And say “hi” to many of our 312 ASGA members who reside there!

Suddenly Senior In a couple of weeks, I turn 65. Yesterday, I got my Medicare Card in the mail. This baby has boomed. I suppose I’m reach-ing a milestone but I’m not looking for a gold watch. I have Siri, that little lady hidden inside my iPhone. She’s gold enough. Reflecting on getting older, I posed a serious question to her this morning: “what are the important things in life I need to know?” Fully anticipating a cute or comical answer, she re-

QUOTE OF THE MONTH:

“Golf doesn’t build

character, it reveals it.”

ferred me to a page on a website written by Joshua Becker called “The More of Less.” Becker teaches us how to become a minimalist and adds a blog called The 10 Most Important Things to Simplify Your life.” You can find these great suggestions at www.TinyURL.com/asga01 Becker asks us “not to settle for more! Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the burden of our clutter. We tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. Our toy rooms are messy, our drawers won’t close, our closets are filled, and we can’t fit our cars in our garages. The evidence of clutter is all around us. Meanwhile, this constant accumulation of stuff slowly begins robbing us of life. It redirects our given passions. It steals our greatest potential. It consumes our limited resources. And it dis-tracts us from the very life we wish we were living. He suggests we “live a better life with less and that it’s time to own your pos-sessions instead of letting them own you. After all, the beauty of minimalism isn’t in what it takes away. It’s in what it gives. So after looking at The 10 Most Important Things from above, I realized it wasn’t about doing but not doing. Facebook, for ex-ample, or even email. How much time do we all spend with ei-ther of those expecting it to change our lives somehow. I get frustrated sometimes answering, or deleting, 100 emails each day. These things continue to consumer too much of each day. I know it’s what you do in business but I feel like John Stossel sometimes and want to say “gimme a break!” But nonetheless, I bring a lot of stuff on myself. It’s of my own doing, simply put. I expect that someday, if it’s not happening now, new jobs will open-up employing people who will do nothing but help other people simplify their lives as we get older. And if you happen to already be there, pass the info along and I’ll spread the word.

Do We Have Senior Members? We got an email the other day from a potential member want-

ing to know if we had any seniors in our group. I wanted to reply (so bad), well . . . duh! To some of our readers, 65 is where life begins. It’s the new 50, etc. If I were a dog I’d be 455 years old. But for now, I’m happy as a lamb!

Double You Double You Double You A few days ago, Irene Matthews, our beloved office manager here in Charlotte, received a call from a potential member as well. He wanted to know our website. “www.SinglesGolf.com,” she said. It didn’t go down that simple though. She was close to three minutes giving him the website. Ever been there? I asked her if this was a prank phone call and she tells me “absolutely not.”

Who They Gonna Call? We might not think that often about what would happen if we got a major injury on a golf course? Ever wonder what would happen if you passed-out in the grocery store? Someone calls 911. First responders are there in minutes. Someone thinks to

call your ICE listing in your smart phone but find that there is no such listing. So what is ICE? It’s your “In Case of Emergency” number. Yes, you know if you’re conscious who to call but would the emer-gency folks taking you to the hospital know if you were not. These life-saving heroes of our world are trained to go to your phone and call your ICE contact, your son, brother, sister, daugh-ter, best friend, etc. But it has to show-up as “ICE.” So if you haven’t done it already, add ICE and In Case of Emer-gency to your list of contacts so the folks in charge of your life will know who to contact if something happens to you.

Playing a Round Elsewhere? I was speaking with an ASGA friend the other day and she mentions that she travels the country from time to time. “Great,” I said. “Do you ever check to see if we have a chapter in that area and try to play golf with them?” “No,” she said. “How would I do that?” I explained to her that on our website’s homepage (see above article), there is a link at top left that says “List of All Chapters.” A chart opens up and you’ll see where we have chapters and then links to their website and/or newsletter. Simply call-up or email the golf chair some days ahead of time, tell them you’ll be in town on a given day that they are having a golf outing. Tell them you’re in another ASGA chapter and would like to join them. It’s as simple as that. Hopefully, you’ll be intro-duced as an ASGA member from another chapter and will make new friends you never thought you had! You can also access the page directly by going to this link: www.SinglesGolf.com/Chapters

Lost Club Labels A benefit to ASGA membership is that you can receive one (1) set of lost club labels to wrap around your club shafts each year. These are personalized with your name and phone. Order these by going to www.SinglesGolf.com/ContactUs and we’ll get them in the mail to you. Other benefits of membership in ASGA are listed at www.SinglesGolf.com/benefits

NOTE: ASGA DOES NOT CONDUCT BACKGROUND CHECKS ON APPLICANTS FOR MEMBERSHIP OR MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION. Golf can be a dangerous sport. Accidents can

occur by you or another party striking a golf ball, by a golf cart turning over, or simply falling down steps. PLEASE TAKE ADEQUATE PRECAUTION when playing in ASGA events.

Chapters and individuals running golf tournaments are not professionals but are volunteers, and therefore, you must assume additional responsibility for your own safety.

Please abide by the safety rules posted inside your golf cart, at the golf course, as well as the official website of the United States Golf Association (www.USGA.org). If you

have a safety concern, please bring it to the attention of the person(s) running an event, your chapter president or golf course management personnel.
