I was sent the following email, and thought some of you may be interested. Here's you chance to own your own course: Giving away a golf course in Texas, complete with clubhouse, cart building, and a pool. Other prizes include: Trip to Pebble Beach, tickets to 2002 Masters, choice of 4 different 2001 vehicles, and more. Check it out at http://www.golfcoursecontest.com/
I received an email from Lynn at www.WhatIsTheRuling.com concerning junior golf leagues that are interested in their products for their junior members. I think it's a great idea to get some of these out to juniors as they are learning the game. The following is a copy of the email:
There are many junior organizations, locally as well as nationally, that want to have What is the Ruling?! for their juniors. They are not in a position to buy. April 8th, What is the Ruling?! will be on sale for $3 each (bulk) making a box of 42 just $126.
I'm looking for anyone or any group interested in a "matching donation" to these organizations. With tax in Minnesota ($8.19) and/or UPS charges ($12 - $22), this averages out to a matching donation for $75. Are any of the GolfProHelp.com members interested in sponsoring a donation to a junior organization?
First

Sue Fracker of www.FINDaLESSON.com has written another wonderful article for us. This time, it has to do with golf fitness. The following is an excerpt:
Not
too long ago, I remember falling asleep to the sounds of golf on television.
An open window, curtains whispering in the breeze, the sofa enveloping
me as that British guy softly described approach shots and putts, sand
saves and fades, club selection and lies. Golf seemed a thoughtful stroll.
Even the applause was respectfully hushed, the crowd following along
at a leisurely pace, admiring the control and grace of the professional
competitors. It was quiet. Too quiet.
Enter the fist pump. I haven’t slept since."

"The most exquisitely satisfying act in the world of golf is that of throwing a club. The full backswing, the delayed wrist action, the flowing follow-through, followed by that unique whirring sound, reminiscent only of a passing flock of starlings, are without parallel in sport."
Henry Longhurst

I was sent the following email, and told Dennis that I would post it to the newsletter. If anyone can help, his contact information is at the end.
My
name is Dennis Durr, I am a member of the Greenlee Country Club and
presently President of Board of Directors. We are starting a project
to upgrade our watering system and are in need of some used equipment.
I am hoping that you can help us find equipment at other Arizona courses
that is no longer needed (due to upgrades, etc.). We are a small club
on a very limited budget so used equipment is our best bet.
The equipment we need to complete our project is:
1. Sprinkler Control System components. Our system will control 145
Hunter Legacy G90 and G95 Sprinklers. This is fed by two submersible
pumps so the system requires pump start capabilities.
2. Legacy G90 or G95 sprinklers, or equiv. We have 90 sprinklers and
need another 55 or so.
3. Pressure control valve. 6" pressure control valve to maintain
80-100 psi in our water system.
We are always in the market for other used course maintenance equipment
also. Any help you and the Arizona Golf Association members can provide
will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Dennis Durr
