July was a warm month! We are still waiting for monsoons, as well. All things considered, the golf courses have withstood the dry elements; but please still do your rain dances! The continued positive compliments continue to feed back to us about the shape of our courses. Thank you for your patience with some holes being “cart path only” to help this process.
Please join me in welcoming Matt Davis as our new Golf Shop manager at The Outlaw. Matt has been with the club for over a year now. He previously managed Kokopelli Golf Club for several years prior. Matt is in the middle of his PGA Apprenticeship and will have his membership soon. We are glad to have Matt and look forward to his management ideas and expertise. If you haven’t met Matt, please stop into the Outlaw Golf Shop and say “hello.”
PLEASE CHECK INTO THE GOLF SHOP: We encourage all members to check into the Golf Shops before play. This really helps with running a smooth tee sheet, and that we can make sure everything is accountable at YOUR club. This is especially important at The Outlaw since visibility is difficult down there. This is a continued team effort in making positive change. You will start to see more Starter/Marshall presence at Outlaw, as well.
BILLING NO SHOWS: Just a housekeeping issue that needs mentioning. If you do not show up for your tee time, you will be billed for it. As we are in full season, these tee times are precious to everyone. Please keep track of all your bookings and please cancel if you do not play.

DRIVING RANGES: Both of our driving ranges are probably the busiest of any club in the country. That being said, it takes a village to keep up with operating them, especially picking the sides. Doing this requires occasional closing to be able to keep up with this. It’s all based on use. If the use is up, we need to look after the sides. Thank you for your patience and understanding with this.
HOLE IN ONE REPORT: We have one hole-in-one to report for July. Nancy Crowson’s husband, Junior, had a hole-in -one on July 7th on #16 at Outlaw. He hit a gap wedge from 105 yards. This was his 5th career hole-in-one! He was witnessed by David Bond and Jorge Arango. Great shot, Nancy’s husband!
Are you in the Hole-in-One Club? If you are interested, please contact Charisse Wadsworth at [email protected]. The program costs $5 per person and reloads each time a hole-in-one participant makes a hole-in-one. Each Golf Shop has a simple form to fill out should you have one. Inquire at either Golf Shop for the form.
