New Golfer Day and Golf 101
New Golf Day has been rescheduled for Friday, March 13. It will be held at White Wing from 2-3:30 p.m.
This is a kick off to the Golf 101 classes.
The Golf 101 class is designed for individuals and couples who are beginner golfers, golfers with limited golf experience or golfers who have experienced a significant layoff. This class offers golfers instruction on all aspects of the golf swing as well as rules and etiquette tips, and general information regarding playing and practicing in Sun City. This will give interested residents a taste of what they can expect from the Golf 101 class as they will get to experience a short game, putting and full swing instructional demonstration. This will be the first opportunity to get signed up for classes that will be offered beginning toward the end of March and/or the first part of April.
If you have any questions, or are interested in signing up for this New Golfer Day and/or Golf 101, please contact the White Wing Golf Shop or the golf professional staff. |

USGA Report – Legacy Hills
|
|
Last fall, the USGA paid a visit to Legacy Hills to evaluate the golf course and offer recommendations on things that might help maintain and, in some cases, improve course conditions.

Divots and Ball Mark Repair
Properly repairing divots helps the turf recover as quickly as possible and helps to restore a smooth playing surface. An un-repaired divot can take months to heal, and it may never fully recover. Repairing divots maintains good playability for your fellow golfers and sets a positive example of caring for the course.
|
|
|
Proper Way to Practice on the Driving Range
To maximize the use of the grass on the driving range tee, please place your ball at the grassy back edge of your previous divot removing just a small portion of grass each swing.

White Wing Bridge on #2
Renovation on the bridge on #2 began Tuesday, March 10. During this renovation period, the front 9 at White Wing will be closed and only available for 9 holes on the back 9. Legacy Hills and Cowan Creek will be restricted to 18 hole play only in the morning during this project in an effort to accommodate 18 hole play. This project is anticipated to take approximately 10 days. Event play, including WGA, MGA and CGA events have been moved to Legacy Hills and Cowan Creek accordingly.
Thank you for your patience.

The Spring Demo Day will be held Thursday, March 19, at White Wing from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This will be an excellent opportunity to see and test some of the new equipment from a variety of vendors. Callaway, TaylorMade, Cleveland, Cobra, Tour Edge, Titleist and Wilson will all be in attendance.
We will have appointments every 30 minutes for those who wish to have guaranteed one-on-one time with one of the vendor representatives and/or one of the golf professionals. That said, everyone is encouraged to stop by and see all the new equipment.
