A Message from Management

On behalf of the entire staff at Pembroke Pines Country Club, I would like to thank all our members and guests for another great golf season. We had many fun member events throughout the summer and we appreciate everyone’s participation and support for these events. Congratulations to all our tournament winners and to our members who shot a hole-in-one this year. Quite a golfing accomplishment!

As we prepare to close the “outdoor” course for the winter, I encourage you to take advantage of the indoor golf simulators to stay in golf shape until next spring. There are many opportunities to join morning and evening leagues, or you can just sign up to play a round on your own. The “course” choices are many and varied! Call the Pro Shop for all the information.

I want to remind everyone that gift certificates are available to purchase in the Pro Shop. These can be specified for any amount and would make great holiday gifts for your golfing friends!

The Total Golf Management Team extends a thank you to all our members for their continued support and membership. We wish everyone a wonderful holiday season and safe winter. As always, if you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact me at 783-9400 ext. 14. Sincerely, Kathleen Dube General Manager, Total Golf Management

Grass is already growing in on the NEW 18th hole!

Pro’s Corner Eric Thompson, PPCC Head Golf Professional

Dear PPCC Members, Thank you all for an awesome year at the Pines! It really was fantastic for us here at the course and we hope you enjoyed your overall playing experience this season. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or just want to say hello, stop in to Pembroke Pub this winter. With our golf simulators, pool tables, dart boards, and delicious food and drinks, it is a great way to quell those winter blues.

Our last golfing event for the year is the Turkey Shoot scheduled for Saturday, November 5th. The day begins at 10 am with a shotgun start and ends with a delicious turkey dinner and fun banquet to follow. The format is a blind-draw scramble. Sign up today!

Members please keep in mind that golf shop credit must be used by November 30th. Golf shop credit does not carry over to next year so stop in to see us in the golf shop right away!

Best Regards, Eric Thompson Head Golf Professional

Turf Talk Thank you for another great season this year at Pembroke Pines! The golf course is certainly headed in the right direction thanks to the hard work of our maintenance crew, construction, design, & management teams. My team and I are very excited to take part in the ongoing improvements and look forward to a seeing the finished product. We are currently completing a tree removal project on the back nine. Eliminating a number of trees in select areas will allow space for some new tee boxes scheduled to be built next spring as well as to open up some areas to allow for increased sunlight and air flow. This will drastically improve turf conditions over time and improve both the playability and overall enjoyment of the golf course. Stay warm this winter and let’s hope for an early spring!

Beautiful fall foliage along the Soucook River on the 17th hole.

Swing Tip Next time you are on the putting green, try taking a little longer back swing and see if that helps with your distance control. Watch the tour players; their putting strokes are long and flowing. Also, putting is about imagination and confidence. Trust your read and make a good stroke. Don’t try to steer the putt. Pick a good line at a good pace and trust your read. You will make more putts!
