Managers Message —by Anthony Chelena
Many thanks to all
the Members who
completed the Food
& Beverage survey
in December. We’ve
conducted these
surveys many times
over the years and the scores are very
important to us. The general feedback
portions are also an important part of
the survey and every comment is taken
seriously. The survey is completely
anonymous, unless you are the one
Member who always talks to me about
hushpuppies and you again wrote
about hushpuppies in your survey. (I’m
joking about this because I know Mr.
Hushpuppies will find it funny.) As I
am writing today we have a very large
response rate for the survey and I expect
more responses. Members responding
to the survey were overwhelmingly “A”
Members and mostly 71-80 years old. Since
I focus most on the negatives- 7% of our
respondents reported they were dissatisfied
with the Grill and 10% of respondents
reported they were dissatisfied with the
Clubhouse. “A” Members tend to rate
the Grill better than the Clubhouse and
“C” Members tend to rate the Clubhouse
better than the Grill. This has been a
consistent finding every time we have
conducted the survey. Regardless, we know
we can improve everywhere and we look
forward to it. The data and comments
will be instrumental. Thanks to all for
participating.
HUGE congratulations are in order for
Golf Professional Jay King for winning
a prestigious honor in December. The
Carolinas Section of the PGA (covers all
of North and South Carolinas and part
of Virginia) awarded Jay their Player
Development Award for the many
activities he has orchestrated to attract new
golfers. Examples include his beginner golf
clinics, his SNAG Golf activities, Junior
PGA program, and teaching at the Boys &
Girls Club. Think of how important player
development is to the game of golf, then
think of how many PGA professionals
there are in the Carolinas. It’s a great honor
for Jay and for Hendersonville Country
Club. Way to go Jay!

Golf Tips —by Jay King
New Years Resolution: A promise you make yourself to start doing something
good or to stop doing something bad.
It’s that time of the year again. Time to
take a step back to re-evaluate your life
goals over the past year and plan new
goals/resolutions for this New Year.
Below are some golf related resolutions
you may consider.
1. Have FUN! I believe it is safe to
say that we all take this game a little
too seriously. Sure golf requires
concentration, but the main reason
we play is for fun. We are outside,
amongst friends, and away from
the office. Your attitude can have an
impact on how you play, so enjoy
and respect the game!
2. Take a lesson early in the year. Instructional changes take time,
so get out early and see where you
need improvement most. This will
allow for a longer year of good golf.
3. Practice with a purpose. Concentrate on each shot on the
range. Practice your pre-shot
routine that you will use on the
course. Aim at different targets and
switch clubs after every few shots.
4. Finish with the clubhead low on your chips and short pitches. Having a low finish on your short
shots will allow more solid impact.
This will allow you to never scoop
your shots from around the greens.
5. Kiss your left shoulder at the top of your driver swing. Doing this
on the range and with practice will
insure a full shoulder turn and an
increase in clubhead speed through
the ball.
6. Stretch more. Flexibility is excellent
for golf. It is important to stretch
before and after golf.
7. Play from the correct set of tees. Enjoy golf this year by playing from
a distance that you can enjoy. The
handicap system is set up where you
can compete from different tees.
Try a round of golf from a shorter
tee box (that you haven’t tried) this
year.
Happy New Year! Looking forward to
having fun on the course this year!
Golf News—by Ben Balentine
Now that the holiday season is
over and we are counting the
pounds we put on over the past
five or six weeks, it’s time to turn
our attention to getting into
shape for golf in the spring! The best way to do this
is not to randomly exercise, but rather to employ the
best specific exercises. Stretching has been proven to
produce great results for golf fitness. As we get older
we lose the ability to make a full shoulder turning
motion, which in turn causes a loss in distance and a
creeping up of the handicap. If you would like more
information on some effective stretching exercises
please give me a call or come by the golf shop.
The golf staff would like to thank the members for
your support over the past year. We had a good
year in merchandise sales and with your continued
support we can make 2015 even better. Please
remember that the club gives you a 20% discount
on all merchandise. This allows us to sell quality
merchandise at a fair and reasonable price. We
encourage you to compare our prices on clubs and
golf balls before shopping elsewhere. Don’t forget
your gift certificates must be used by April 30, 2015.
We also would like to thank our members for their
generous gifts to the employee Christmas fund. You
have enabled us to give our families a much bigger
and better Christmas. Happy New Year to all!
Please check out the 2015 Tournament Schedule and
mark your calendar for the upcoming events you
plan to play in.GRIP PROMO 10% DISCOUNT DURING THE MONTH OF JANUARY

Dad, you may not know it but your daughter thinks you are the greatest guy in the world. Why? I don’t know, but it’s true. When you show her your undivided attention you are showing her how boys/men should treat her. And she is learning. Take her out to dinner at your Club for the Father Daughter/Dinner. We’ll help you show her a good time with flowers and gifts. And while we’ll have an abbreviated menu that is specially designed for daughters of any age, we’ll also have the full menu available for bigger appetites.
