We had a good nice today as our tour stop is at the beautiful and challenging “Native Oaks GC.”   We had signed up a field of 28 players,  who enjoyed the nicely groomed fairways and challenging greens.  The morning air temps were at 71 degrees F at the start.  Course knowledge was key today, and keeping the ball in play was a premium.  We were blessed by the warm sun what quickly heated up the course and by the time we finished our 4 hour 30 min round the air temperatures had risen to 95 degrees.
Most of the players in the field are all signed up for the 2025 season with our SCGA / GHIN / USGA  -Seacoast Christian GC organization.  If you are a player who is not a member of our club, you are welcome to join and begin your SCGA / GHIN experience with our club.  Just click on the membership or renew membership link below.  We plan a fun filled year of golf for our club members.  It is the golf committee’s  hope  that all of you will enjoy the friendly competition and year ending post season play which has been planned for all to enjoy.   Along this year’s golf journey with us, we also hope you create new bonds of friendship and camaraderie.

Recap Event 5 – With our fifth event in the books, we were blessed with picture perfect weather for a great golf day. Although it got pretty toasty towards the end of the round,  our players made it through their round.    In our “Flight A” group,   Bryan Blackwell took charge of his game and proved that he can play under challenging conditions by firing and scoring a low gross 76.      In the “B” flight,  Scott Crockett  (our 2023 Champion) finally decided to come out to play this year.  Paul Deveau also had a good showing in the “B” flight as he posted a low gross 86 and racked up enough points to become our new #1 on our leaderboard.   In Flight “C” in our field, Curtis Chan stuck to his game plan and posted a low gross 90, Low Net 71 to gain himself needed points towards his playoff bid,    In Flight “D” Wayne Wilson showed how “membership has it’s privileges” as he a low gross 98 to edge out Dale Elledge, another member of Native Oaks GC.  Both these gentlemen proved that course knowledge will shave a few strokes off one’s game.

It’s still early in the season, and there’s a large group of guys eager to activate their “A” game to make it into this year’s playoffs.    Come on out and post low scores and you’ll find yourself climbing our leaderboard to the playoffs.  Here’s the calendar of events for this year so you can plan accordingly.


USGA / GHIN – Membership Responsibilities “POSTING GOLF SCORES” – It is very important for all of us to have a good understanding of “golf handicap” and your “golf index” profile.   One of the elements of golf is the “integrity” of each player taking personal responsibility to post all qualified golf scores within 24 hours of date of play.   Your golf index is calculated daily and it is important to keep your golf profile as current as possible.  Failure to keep it current and NOT POSTING on a timely basis may be grounds for “penalty rounds” to be assessed.   If you have any difficulty or don’t completely understand the process, please visit the USGA learning center that explains via video all the info you need to know about “golf handicapping”

Player’s profiles and golf rounds are all subject be audited by the golf committee.  All players are required to “POST” their golf grounds ASAP as index ratings are calculated daily.  Please use Ghin.Com / or phone app to post your scores.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact
