2025 Trout Lake Golf and Country Club Men’s Leagueat: New game each week, so no commitment to playing every week all season
Greetings men and happy spring!
Here is how the 2025 Men’s League will work for this year. League dues will be $80 for 2025. This DOES include a WSGA handicap. However, if you already have a USGA handicap established through GHIN, your league dues will be $55. Handicaps are updated every 24 hours, so each week, your handicap could change. (Most likely just a little) League dues will pay for dinners and prizes. ALL league dues money that is collected is paid back out.
There will also be a side game each week which is a $5.00 entry. (Example: gross and net skins game).
Golf and Cart Rates: This year all players that decide to pay weekly for their golf/cart, will receive 20% off our base rates depending on the time of year. We do sell season passes and 10-play cards. Our season pass rates and 10 play cards are on the website.
Format & Payouts: We will have a new game each week. Which means you DO NOT have to commit to playing every week. There will be an online signup form on our website. To register please go online and fill out the form each week by Sunday at 6:00pm if you are planning to play. We will have weekly payouts each week that we play. For those who do not have a handicap and are in the process of establishing one, please post 5 scores as soon as you can, these scores can be posted from any golf course. So that means you need to get out and play outside our league. If that is not reasonable, if you played at any time during the winter and have the scorecards, we can use those. But preferred is for you to get the rounds in once we open. One more thing on handicaps…when you go play on your own, you need to let us know what tees you played and the date you played it.
New for 2025! We will have $1.00 off drink discounts each week and $4.00 pitchers of beer after league play on Wednesday’s.
And finally, some simple rules: USGA rules will cover most of our play. All league scores will be entered for handicap purposes. When scoring your cards, you need to put your “GROSS SCORE’ per hole. I will adjust for the net scores, weekly games etc. Below are more details about everything. So, there you go! I think I’ve covered everything, but obviously, things will come up as we move forward. Any questions, send me an email (showard@troutlakegolf.com) or give me a call. I’m looking forward to our league! My goal will be to have the results out on Thursday following our event.
