On The Course...

2011 - The Season begins.

As most members, and residents of Central NY, know you just have to wait a few minutes for the weather to change in these parts, but the same can be said for most areas around the country. Spring is upon us, once again, and the seemingly endless and snow choked winter is a thing of the past, until next November.
Woodcrest Golf Club is now open for play, weather permitting for the 2011 Season. We ask all members, returning and new alike to follow the one foremost simple suggestion.

Always call for a tee time when expecting to play golf.

We may just inform you that early in the season before the Leagues start at the end of April that tee times are not necessary and we can accomodate you whenever you come up. Also while we try our hardest to keep the online calendar up to date with Leagues, Outings and Events, as the season  progresses there are times when not everything scheduled makes it onto the  calendar in as timely a fashion as we all would like. So to save ourselves the embarrassment and yourselves the aggravation, please call before you come so we can better let you know what to expect in the way of available tee times and cart availability before you make the trip up here.




2010 Member-Member Results

A reversal of last year's Championship Flight results, Joe Vanderwerken and Mick McGinnis eagled the first playoff hole to win their flight in this year's Member-Member. Brian Loucy and Paul Hildreth finished second with an identical 36 Hole Captain & Mate score of  11 under par 129 (63-66). Third place went to Rick Siracuse and Brad Chapman at 7 under par 133.
In the First Flight, with excitement of its own, father and son, David and Chase Martin, needed 6 extra playoff holes before defeating Sean Heffernan and Mike Bailey. Bothe teams finished 3 under par, 137. Zach Condon and Dan Barbagallo tied for third with Jamie Cavotta and Larry Martin at 138.
Randy Mahar and Richard Winstead finished first in the Second Flight at 144, with JIm Owen and Trish Latocha second at 146 and tied for third at 150 were Connor Martin and Bruce Martin and Bryce and Tom Button.
On a sadder note, Tim Lownsbury had to withdraw from the second day of the tournament today due to the untimely death of his father. Our condolences go out to long time member Tim Lownsbury and his family. We are all thinking of you Tim.

Unknowingly Mick and brother Bill McGinnis needed a little luck to overcome a back nine charge from Steve Roach and his partner Bob Quinn. With the observation deck over looking the 18th green filled with with fellow participants, Mick McGinnis holed out a badly blocked tee shot for an eagle 2 on the Par 4 18th hole to the ever increasing roar of the crowd.
