We burned a monster debris pile between 5-6
we had 6 fires blazing today

The stream provided a great water source it was in full flow

Next burn we continue up hole 6, then we advance to 7's green/8's tee
8's fairway will be nice to reach, extra hands for that beast will be nice

Phelan and Guy crushed another 3 piles to ash the other day

Next burn prob Tuesday 2/9 10am-3pm

Im looking to play here Friday around noon. Is there a course map or even better any locals willing to give me a tour?
Also, is it still free to play?

Who can I contact about membership, RFG or you guys?

Jeff, The Royalston General store 1/4 mile down rt68 from the course sells them. That is the easiest way. With that membership you can bring friends and they play for free.

andy $5 there is a slot on side of garage building
I will not be around Friday got the kid

the course should flow well for you,look for wooden tee signs and arrows

have fun and let us know what ya think

Jeff, Yes down the road just a bit

Jeff, Enemies are welcome too!

big meeting this sunday 11am @ RFG
all RFG DG members welcomed and encouraged to attend

we hope to resolve any issues and formulate the plan for the future of the course going forward

update after meeting

10 hours volunteer service gets you a discounted membership!
we will be gathering a punch list and staging for tee pad work sooon

life consumed my time of late but soon it is time for DG domination again!

this 2 man band is looking to expand though
let us know via post/pm/phone/FB/etc if you have time
Tees will take a group effort

Guy and I finally got back up to RFG today.

We cleaned the entire front 9 of any storm debris, not much actually.
Wow what a gorgeous track of land! the work finally shows crystal clear

We then shifted to determining what our final choices for the forced design change
Holes 1 & 2 are being eliminated
we have decided to back of the range line even more(requested), and loop the course instead of having that walk back to hole 1 for a loop(desired)

so we are somewhat breaking hole 17 up and using some area we had previously cut for the old hole 18 beast that just never worked.
we are then also always been the plan once we removed hole 1 to add a hole between 14-15 that will lead you back behind 15's tee.

we have narrowed it to 2 choices for each hole, we just need a lil time to ponder as this is the final at least for us cut before we let the dust settle for 3-5 years.

along the way I formulated the final punch list of relevant task before Guy and I can call this finished(well the best one can call a course finishes) before full club/team transition.

we got it through high school now get out kinda thing.

I will post completed punch list in another post. more so for personal reference but as always looking for delegation of task!

Thanks

Seems reasonable.

The dig and tee material put out last year is gonna go long way this year well on the ones we are not moving ha...as they compacted and settled nicely. less to haul this year

First thing first get the saw work done and course transitioned for safety cough skeet cry babies then onto the TEES!
