Our Annual Alliance Cup is here! Join us in celebrating a great season with some friendly competition between Silo Point and Blackhawk. This is a 2-day event, playing one day at each course. Breakfast will be included, as well as Lunch with an Open Bar. Each player will receive a team hat, too! With significant growth at Blackhawk, we are excited for a bigger event and all around good match this year!
Pace of Play
As we get into the busy season here at the club, we'd like to remind everyone of our pace-of-play policy. Our goal is to have all rounds completed in four hours or less, regardless of day or time. If you would like to review a breakdown of the expected pace of play on the front, back, and during different playing times, please revisit here.
Golf Course Updates
Please be mindful of the fescue areas around holes 6, 7, 8, 10, and 11. Do not drive carts through these areas as we want to encourage and maintain the growth of the new grass. Please rake your bunker after your shot, and make sure to enter and exit on the "low side" of the bunker. Carts should travel on the paths and in the rough as much as possible, using the "90-degree method" to get to your golf ball. This practice reduces wear and tear on the grass and allows for the best possible fairway conditions.
Taylormade Fitting Day
Back by popular demand! Taylormade will host another fitting event on the driving range Thursday, September 27th from 2:00-6:00pm. Spots are available by appointment, please reserve your time by clicking here.
