Blackhawk C.C.
Last Tuesday, June 15, we had 32 golfers go after Blackhawk Falls course followed by our first official post round gathering. Thanks go out to our Handicap Chair Hardy Brunette for hosting and hammering out the details of the event and for bringing in his friend Blackhawk’s sponsoring member Jaime Williamson, and, to Jaime for hosting and joining us for the round.
It was a warm day, in the high 80s but not too hot. In years past when the temperature exceeded 90 degrees, we had to play cart path-only. June is definitely a better month than July for one of our afternoon rounds at Blackhawk. The cold refreshments at the 19th hole on the Falls’ patio were all that more refreshing.
The course played fair, rewarding those that kept the ball in play and could roll it with the flat stick. The greens were quicker than average, rolling out downhill, but you had to hit the uphill putts solid.
