A special night of golfing was held May 20 at Chinook Cove Golf Resort. It was the night that every lady dreads. The night that really challenges golfers in the technical aspects of the game, it was a 4-club night.
A 4-club golf night is a fun challenging format where players only use four clubs for their round. This can be a great way to practice your skills, experiment with different club combinations, and have a unique golfing experience.
The 4-club night is different from the usual ladies night because instead of having your entire golf bag as your arsenal, you pick the four clubs you want to keep and take the rest of your clubs out of your golf bag. Once you pick your clubs, and the rest of your group do the same, you are now clear to head out to the course.
This really challenges the ladies on a technical aspect because you have to play with your chosen club's strengths and weaknesses. For example, a full swing with a driver is going to have a different result then with your pitching wedge.
You really have to understand how full your swing needs to be, how fast to swing, and what your club is capable of doing, in order to get that perfect shot. What fun! At least the weather was good. Oh wait, no that wasn't good either.
Well, what was good about the night? There were warm food, door prizes, and good company. So, without further ado, let's move on to the winners of the night.
