Opening Day 2020

Welcome to the 2020 Members Only edition of the Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club Blog...

In reality, the blog is not members only, I'm not that good at the internet. But the golf course is for the moment...  We look forward to seeing the JGHTC family on the course this season!

Given the circumstances, we are happy golf is a game relatively conducive to social distancing.  In order to provide a "touchless" golf round, the pool noodle trick is in play for the cup and flagstick.

Truth be told, in testing this morning I hit some putts that I believe would have fallen under the normal cup or flagstick/cup scenario.  The putt with some pace has a tendency to "ride over" the foam and bounce out.

An example of the current cup/flagstick/pool noodle set up - Keep it fair and keep it clean.

The absence of divot sand containers on the 3 pars is another change.  The staff will do our best to keep up!

Hopefully, these and other operational changes fade away over the weeks and months ahead.  But in the meantime, we are working diligently to simply provide a safe place for your favorite game.

Take care.
