OMGA Points Championship

I would like to thank those who participated in the season ending Points Championship this past weekend & congratulate the Overall Champion, Michael Schmidt, & Overall Net Champion, Trae Joyce, on their fantastic two-day total.  The Overall Championship was not decided after 36 holes, as Nick Gerch & Michael both posted a 5-over par total of 149, & after much deliberation finally went back on to the golf course for a playoff to determine the winner.  Both hit excellent tee shots off the 9th tee box & having to play first, Michael played his 2nd shot within 3' from the hole, & was able to use all of his experience to finally #makeeverything recording a birdie to Nick's par.  In the Net competition it was a 1 horse race as the 2014 President's Cup Champion was able to post an impressive score of 135, 9-under par, and win by 8 strokes over Tom Larkin.  Again, thank you for your support of the golf operations at Oxmoor Country Club!

Sunday, November 9th

Range will CLOSE at 4:30 PM that afternoon as we must clean pick the range for the final mowing of the year.  We will also begin to seed target greens & improve turf conditions on the range & you can expect to see traps covering the greens as we move into the off season.  I would also like to remind everyone to please NOT hit irons off the turf directly in front of the mats.  If you would like to hit irons, please go to the teaching tee box located on the back of the range.
