Wayne McWhirterClub President
We are now completely into the 2013 golf season and every year the course has shown improvement. We again had a late start with our first tee time not being available until mid-May.
We have added a number of new Committees to our Club this year, including Golf , Greens, Member Services, and Membership and Marketing. Each of these Committee’s are chaired by a Member of the Board of Governors and has members of the Club as Committee participants. The additional Committees will allow the Board interaction with more specific areas of Club life.
The Heritage Fund dinner held in June was a great success again and raised over $10,000 toward golf course improvements. Thanks to Dave Johnston for organizing and being the MC of the event. The meal was great, as usual, and it was a good time to connect with other members of the Club.
We have had the New Member Attraction Program going on since May 2013 and have had great success in bringing new members to the Club. The program continues to the end of July so please continue to introduce it and new members to the Club. Thanks to all the members that have supplied leads and for those people that have joined , please enjoy your credits at the Club.
We still have another 3 months of great playability at our course so encourage everyone to come out, bring friends and family to enjoy the great atmosphere.

A Message from Gordon HudsonChair of the Southwood Golf Committee
In early 2013 I was appointed as Chairperson of the Golf Committee. In addition to myself, the Golf Committee is presently comprised of the following volunteers: Thomas Holmes, Mark Adams, Cornell Ruddock, Bryce Barr, Charlie Boyechko, Trish Jordan and Kevin Neiles. Being new to the Board, I’ve found myself in a huge learning curve. Firstly, as part of the Board and secondly, learning what the mandate of the Golf Committee is. Here is a very basic outline of the duties and responsibilities of the Golf Committee:
• To interact with Members, to keep them informed of activities and to solicit their ideas and suggestions for improvements.
• Work with Junior and Intermediate programs to develop and expand that portion of the membership.
• Work with the Club Captain on all member golf events.
• Establish and monitor golf policies, programs and activities in conjunction with the Head Golf Professional to assure that all members and their families are provided opportunities to participate in the programs and utilize the facilities.
• Establish guidelines for a broad program of playing activities and events to assure that the Head Golf Professional provides instruction and competition for members of all skill levels.
• Ensure that the golf course general set up as well as all tournaments and events adhere to the Rules of Golf, the Handicap Manual, and an established set of local rules and procedures.
• Develop, coordinate and promote club mixers, championships, etc.
• Work with the Head Golf Professional in developing and communicating a comprehensive golf program.
• Monitor golf activities and Pro Shop facility operations.
Here are some of the things we’re working on.
TOURNAMENT PLAYLater this summer Southwood will be hosting two “Golf Manitoba” Tournaments and in 2014, the Canadian University/College Championship. In preparation for these events representatives from Golf Manitoba surveyed our course and have made recommendations to align it within the Rules of Golf. Some of those recommendations will be implemented immediately while others will be worked on in preparation for next year. Although their report was extensive, WATER HAZARDS, BALL DROPS and identifying OUT of BOUNDS were the primary concerns.
WATER HAZARDSOne of the primary areas referenced is our water hazards and corresponding drop areas. All of our water hazards, from all tees, have been designated as “Lateral Water Hazards - (LWH)” when in fact most should be “Water Hazards” - (WH)(except from the Yellow tees). What does that mean? For some it may only mean the use of a different coloured paint. Red for LWH and Yellow for a WH. In fact, the different coloured paint means different relief options as provided under Rule 26 - Water Hazards. For example, all hazards would remain LWH for play from the forward tees (yellow), however, holes 3, 4, 8, 11 and 13 should be designated as WH for play from the remaining tees.
BALL DROPSIn addition, our “Ball Drop Areas” are more like “Pace of Play” drop areas. Not something found in the Rules, but instead something for convenience. “Ball Drops” are utilized as a relief option when no other option is available or if a relief option would be too punitive, i.e.: dropping in deep grass. They are not to be used as a means to negotiate the water hazard. Therefore, all of our existing ball drop areas should be moved and others created, to bring them within the parameters of the Rules of Golf.
Understandably, not everyone concerns themselves with the Rules of Golf and thus, a drop on the forward tees could be utilized as a pace of play option. Please note that a “Pace of Pace” drop option would not comply for score handicapping purposes.
OUT of BOUNDSA very minor concern for our course on the whole but a couple areas needed to be addressed. On holes 15 and 18, I hope to see soon, a tall white post, which will identify OB at the bend in the fence that defines our boundary line. With the tall grass, the boundary fence is no longer visible.
4 | S O u t h w O O d G O L f & C O u n t r y C L u b
On the 16th hole, OB stakes have already been installed which now ties in the boundary fence on hole 15 through to the boundary fence on hole 17. Extra steps will be made to make these posts more visible from the tee. These posts were two-fold. First, the course boundary needs to be defined, and secondly, this should address some pace of play issues. If you hit one right, it should be relatively evident that you’re either OB or not, which should lessen time spent looking for lost balls.
PACE OF PLAYIn an effort to keep the game moving at a good pace of play several initiatives have been undertaken by Golf Canada and the USGA. You may have also seen the many videos featured on the Golf Channel on this topic.
The TEE IT FORWARD initiative is aimed at helping golfers have the best possible experience on the golf course by playing from a set of tees best suited to their abilities. The initiative encourages all golfers to play the course at a length that is aligned with their average driving distance. The following are TEE IT FORWARD guidelines for selecting tees and recommended yardages based on a golfer’s average driving distance:
Driver Distance Recommended Yardages300 yards 7,150 - 7,400 yards (Southwood - Black tees)275 yards 6,700 - 6,900 yards (Southwood - Blue tees)250 yards 6,200 - 6,400 yards (Southwood - White tees)225 yards 5,800 - 6,000 yards (Southwood - Green tees)200 yards 5,200 - 5,400 yards (Southwood - Yellow tees)175 yards 4,400 - 4,600 yards150 yards 3,500 - 3,700 yards125 yards 2,800 - 3,000 yards100 yards 2,100 - 2,300 yards
Research indicates that Southwood’s WHITE set of tees (6411 yards) is about 400 yards longer than most Winnipeg courses. The “old” Southwood WHITES were 5951 yards, the BLUES 6228. The forward sets of tees at the old course were 5512 yards (red), and the new course (yellow) is 5314. “Combo” tees would be adjusted accordingly. It is evident that there is a large contingency of members that play from the WHITES at the new course that would have never contemplated played the BLUES at the old course, even though the NEW WHITES are 200 yards longer than the OLD BLUES! Add the wind and the fescue and I think we would all agree the new course is much tougher than the old. A Golf Committee recommendation to the Board is to adjust the tees as follows:
The BLACKS would move to the existing BLUE location and will play 6778 yards
The BLUES would move to the existing WHITE location and will play 6411 yardsThe WHITES would move to the existing GREEN location and will play 5960 yards
The GREENS would move to the existing YELLOW location and will play 5314 yards
The YELLOWS would move to the existing BLACK location and will play 7311 yards, as the GOLDS. Obviously nothing really changes except the color of the tee location, however the change does address those that are not comfortable playing anything less than the WHITES. We align ourselves within the norm of other golf courses, which may in turn, attract potential new members who may normally play a WHITE set of tees in the 6000 yards range. There is a minimal cost associated to the change, newly printed cards, which is a budgeted annual cost regardless and new yardage plates for the tees.
In addition, the suggestion of a “resort” set of tees (for lack of a better term), was made that could be placed far forward of the existing forward tees, on the fairway, for those not wishing the experience of the long rough between tee and fairway. These “resort” tees would be the optimal location for the “Little Swingers” just starting out.
No doubt some of these ventures will create some discussion and debate. As a Rules Official for Golf Manitoba, I’m obviously a bit opinionated regarding the above ventures. Regardless, I think it’s very important that our golf course meets the standards as provided within the Rules of Golf. Once that is achieved it becomes an individual choice as to how someone wishes to massage their play for their “fun” round of golf.
I’d love to hear your feedback on any or all of these processes. The Golf Committee could definitely use more representation, especially from the Ladies section. If you’d like to get involved, wish to express an opinion, idea or concern, please feel free to speak to any one of the above-mentioned people or email me directly at [email protected]

Welcome to the new Southwood. I think everyone is slowly adjusting to our new golf course. During the first couple of weeks, we have been focused on Pace of Play issues and trying to ensure that all golfers – whether driving a power cart; pushing a rickshaw; or carrying their clubs – know where to go and where not to go!!
The first weekend was a bit tough, with rounds of 4:20 to 4:40 +. However, as we got into the swing of things, groups were easily finishing the front nine in 2 hrs or less.
That said, in the first two weeks, I have noticed that there is a lot of confusion for those who push a rickshaw, re: where they can walk and where they can’t. Also, there are IDEAL spots to leave your cart to facilitate a decent pace of play. Read on and please accept and apply these guidelines:
First basic rule of thumb - under ANY circumstance, anyone pushing a rickshaw or any push cart needs to remember that they always need to take their cart to the back of the green, regardless of where their ball rests when approaching the green.
So, if you hit your approach shot short, please take your cart all the way to the back of the green and walk back across the green to your ball. The reason this is so important is that you cannot – under ANY circumstances – leave your push cart in front of the green.
Hole #1 – You can approach and exit the green on either the left or right side. No issues.
Hole #2 – For those pushing a cart, you can now exit left as your approach the green. As a tip, you if you are playing the green or white tees on #3 tee, leave your cart on the path to the left of #2 and take your driver with you as you approach the 2nd green to chip and putt out. As you exit the 2nd green, go directly to the tee, hit your tee shot, and then retrieve your cart.
Hole #3 – Regardless of where you hit your approach shot, you should push your cart to the right of the green towards #4 tee. While there is maturing fescue in that a area, there is a path towards #4 tee where you can walk and push your cart after exiting #3 green.
Hole #4 – Take your push cart to the left of the green. Park your cart on the path, then work your way back to #3 green. After you putt out on #3, your cart should be awaiting your return on the path by #4 tee.
Club Captain Informer Article
Holes #5 – Similar to hole #3, you should push your cart to the right of the green towards #6 tee, even if you hit your ball into the left bunkers on Hole #5. Park your cart first and work your way across the green and to the bunkers on the left if that is where you leave your ball.
Hole #6 – Depending on where you hit your approach shot to the green, you are free to go to either the left or right of the green. However, DO NOT leave your cart out front of the green. Make sure you take it to either side or behind the green so that when you putt out on #6, you are not walking back into the line of play.
Hole #7 - No brainer. NEVER leave your cart out front. If you are short when approaching #7 green, take your push cart all the way around the back of the green towards #8 tee and then enter the back of the green and walk back out front to your ball if that is where you have left your approach shot. If you don’t do this, you are leaving your cart in the line of play for the group behind you.
Hole #8 – Take your push cart all the way down the path, behind the green, and then walk back to your ball….whether in the front trap or in the right traps. Push carts are NOT permitted between the pond and the green side bunker. Follow the path and work your way back. It may seem like you are walking a long way around but you have to go that way any way and this speeds up play.
Hole #9 – Your best bet is to take your cart to the right of the green and work your way back if you are short. Again, the objective is to never find yourself putting out and walking back into the line of play.
L a t e S u m m e r 2 0 1 3 | 1 3
Hole #10 – Take your push cart to the right of the hole, pin high, and walk back to your ball. This way, you putt out and pick up your cart on the way to #11.
Hole #11 – DO NOT push your cart to the left of the green between the water and the green. Regardless of where you hit your tee shot, you must take your push cart on the path, around the back of the green. Enter #11 green at the back, putt out and then go back to the path to retrieve your cart an carry on to #12 tee.
Hole #12 – Take your push cart all the way to the left of the green on the path through the fescue. Enter the green from the back and walk back out front if you need to chip on. Your push cart should be on the path headed to #13 tee so that when you putt out, you are on your way to the next tee.
Hole #13 – Push carts go to the left of the green, around the traps on the left. You enter the green from the left hand side, putt out and go back to the path and around the back of #13 to #14 tee.
Hole #14 – When approaching the green, push your cart all the way to the gap headed towards #15 tee. Approach the green, putt out and then walk down the path that is cut through the fescue to the white tees on #15 and then continue on to the forward tees on #15, retrieve your cart and then tee off on #15.
Hole #15 – You have two options as you approach the green. You can take your push cart left or right, depending on where you hit your shot. However, never leave your push cart in front of the green. Take your cart to the left in the waste area, or if you hit the ball right into the traps, take your push cart all the way around the back and walk back to your ball to finish the hole.
Hole #16 – You are free to take your cart left or right of the green side bunkers. However, if you hit your ball right of #16 green, you are likely best to take your cart up the path to the left of #16 and up to #17 tee and then work your way across the green to your ball.
Hole #17 – Regardless of where you hit your ball, you should push your cart to the left of the bunkers on #17 on the strip between the fescue and the left bunkers, and park your push cart at the top of the path leading to #18 tee.
Hole #18 – Hey, you are almost done!! When approaching the green, take your cart to the right of the green and leave it pin high on the right or behind the green.
These recommendations may seem like a lot of detail, but if you have picked up on anything it should be that you NEVER, under any circumstances, leave your push cart IN FRONT of any green. If you do this, it is wrong and only adds to slow play.
As you walk around to the back of the green, you may feel like you are walking a long way, but when you have putted out, you simply walk off the back of the green. This allows the group behind you to immediately play up to the green without having to wait for you to walk back into their line of play.
If you have any questions about where you can or cannot push a cart, please feel free to give me a call and I would be happy to discuss further.
Remember, the objective is to play our golf course in 4 hrs. 15 minutes MAX. There should be no reason why we cannot hit this target or finish in even LESS time if everyone walks to their ball, is ready to hit when it is their turn, and then leaves their carts or bags in the appropriate spot. The course can easily be played in 4 hours. Keep that in mind. 4:40 or longer playing times are unacceptable.
