DEAR MEMBERS OF BIRNAM WOOD

PRESIDENT’S LETTER

Stanton Anderson, President

I write this month’s article with a great deal of sadness. The sudden passing of Ryan Bentley, the Club’s Golf Course Superintendent, was a shock to all of us and was particularly significant to me since I have had an opportunity to work closely with Ryan over the past year. Ryan made a significant contribution to our golf course and surrounding campus, and his ever-present smile and constant presence during this year’s weather-related crises will be sorely missed.

The celebration of Ryan’s life that was held at the Club on April 20 was a wonderful tribute and gave many of us an opportunity to express our sincere feelings of loss and our respect for Ryan’s expertise.

We are extremely fortunate that Will Soto, our Assistant Golf Course Superintendent, has stepped in to fill the breach on an interim basis. Will was very fortunate to receive special training and development under both Ryan and his predecessor Marty

Moore. Will has been working closely with Jordan since Ryan’s passing.

I am leading a search committee which will begin reviewing candidates to replace Ryan. The Superintendent’s job at Birnam Wood is highly sought after, and we have already received a number of resumes from highly qualified candidates. This process will continue over the next few weeks.

It is important for us to select a permanent replacement for Ryan as soon as possible because we are planning on an April 2024 start date for the implementation of the Master Plan of the golf course. A significant amount of work will be required for us to meet that date. Jordan and I are meeting regularly with our golf course architect,

Todd Eckenrode, and the Construction Oversight Committee has begun a series of meetings to finalize arrangements with the golf course contractors.

Beginning in May, you will see work commencing on all the bridges on campus and on the golf course. The Board approved this effort at its last meeting. The bridges needed repairs, and those efforts will continue for several months.

Finally, work continues on the rear terrace, and our expectation is that we will be able to fully use the entire patio by early June.

Respectfully,

Stan Anderson

FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER

Jordan Sweeney, CCM, CSW General Manager and Chief Operating Officer

Dear Members,

This has been a difficult month for the staff at Birnam Wood. The unexpected passing of Ryan Bentley, our Golf Course Superintendent, has been deeply felt by the entire team. Ryan was such a positive person, and his enthusiasm and humor brightened our days. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable in his field, but he was extremely loved by his Birnam Wood family.

Ryan’s professionalism and dedication to his work was exemplary. This past winter was unprecedented with its weather and challenges. Ryan rose to the challenges and used his knowledge, creativity, and deep desire to always do his very best, to keep the creeks flowing and the golf course open, despite numerous setbacks. Ryan’s proactive attention to our creeks saved us thousands of dollars in potential damage and kept the Club safe. He was extremely dedicated to his job and the overall success of Birnam Wood and, when thanked for all of his extra work and effort, would respond, “Hey, I’m just doing my job.”

One of the great things Ryan brought to the Club was his perspective, earned through over 20+ years in the industry. There would be times when I could tell he was having a hard day, and I would ask him if he was ok. He would always say, “Jordan, its only temporary.” That matter-of-fact statement had an impact on me, and I will remember it for the rest of my life, because he was right. In this industry, there will always be obstacles and curve balls. The weather is unpredictable. Ryan had a good way of looking at life “in the now” and helping us to remember that setbacks are temporary. The seasons change. The rain will stop, the sun will shine, and things will be ok.

Ryan and I met weekly and, during those meetings, Ryan often expressed concern with what I needed. “Jordan, how can I make your day easier with regard to the golf course?” or “Jordan, I have written you a report on things you need to know for your upcoming board meeting.” I would often have to turn the meeting around just to find out what he needed from me.

I have known Ryan for many years, and he was one of the most selfless people I have ever known. He was always thinking of others and rarely thinking of himself. He was eager to please and he understood hospitality. Although Ryan’s passing is tragic and very painful for the many friends and family he left behind, his legacy will be remembered, especially by me.

FROM THE DIRECTOR OF CLUBHOUSE OPERATIONS

Luis Flores

I want to start off by thanking the entire membership for their warm welcome over the past year. I have officially reached my one-year anniversary here at Birnam Wood. As I look back to all the sold-out events, the enthusiastic membership, and our amazing team, I am both humbled and pleased. I look forward to serving you for many years to come.

This past month we participated in the Backyard Bounty program, the volunteer powered gleaning program of the Santa Barbara Foodbank. Volunteers glean from backyards, gardens, farms, and orchards in the Santa Barbara area and redistribute the produce to those in our community who face hunger and food insecurity. Last month, here in Birnam Wood, volunteers gathered 950 lbs. of produce from our members’ gardens. We thank all those who participated!

We have a busy May ahead of us. Make sure you join us on May 6th, in the 19th Hole for our Kentucky Derby Viewing Party. Remember your fancy fascinator hats and your straw boaters. There will be a contest for the Best Dressed Individual, The Best Dressed Couple and, of course, the best hat. Members will also get to place a few friendly trifecta wagers if they so desire.

Lastly, you don’t want to miss out on our Grgich Hills Estate wine dinner. Learn more about Mike Grgich and his famous victory at the 1976 Judgment of Paris Tasting while working for Chateau Montelena. Grgich Hills is one of the first Napa Valley certified organic wines, even before organic was a cool thing.

GEAR EFFECT AND WHY IT’S IMPORTANT Scott Maier, PGA Certified Teaching Professional

Gear Effect is the result of off-center contact horizontally and/or vertically along the clubface, which not only influences the direction, but the spin, of the golf ball.

To help illustrate how Gear Effect works imagine the clubhead is one gear and the ball is a second gear. When a gear rotates in one direction, the second gear will rotate in the opposite direction.

HORIZONTAL GEAR EFFECT

If the ball contact is located on the toe of the clubhead, the clubhead will rotate clockwise causing the ball to rotate counterclockwise resulting in a draw or hook. If the ball contact is located on the heel of the clubhead, the clubhead will rotate counterclockwise causing the ball to rotate clockwise resulting in a fade or slice. One way to remember how this works is the ball will always spin towards the center of gravity of the clubhead.

By design, irons have a tendency to twist more than drivers and fairway metals. However, the Gear Effect is less compared to drivers and fairway metals because the center of gravity is closer to the ball.

Drivers, fairway metals, and hybrids are designed with what is called bulge and roll. Bulge is the curvature of the clubface from the heel to the toe. Roll is the curvature of the face from the crown of the club to the sole. Bulge is a positive feature and is important to help the ball spin towards the target line.

VERTICAL GEAR EFFECT

Let’s look at how Vertical Gear Effect can help you hit better wedge shots. Great wedge players tend to hit the ball low with increased spin to make the ball stop. They do this by hitting the ball slightly below the center of the face causing the clubhead to tilt forward. The clubhead is rotating counterclockwise (tilting down/ delofted) causing the ball to rotate clockwise (up) creating an increase in backspin.

If you are having difficulty creating spin with your wedges, the contact is too high on the clubface. Contact above the center of the clubface causes the clubhead to tilt clockwise (tilting up/ increased loft). This causes the ball to rotate counterclockwise (down) creating less spin.

If your shots are curving too far to the left or right, or you are struggling to create spin with your wedges, look at your clubface to see where you are contacting the golf ball. Gear Effect may be the cause.

AND JOIN THE FUN!

Rolling Into Summer!

Hello Birnam Wood! Wow… The weather has really taken a change towards beauty! All the rain this past season has really brought life to our beautiful mountainscape here in Montecito. While playing croquet this past week, it was difficult to keep my thoughts on the game. When you’re outdoors on our beautiful croquet field, the views are some of the best here at the Club. I hope that you are planning on joining me on Friday afternoons from 3:00 -4:30pm for some Croquet & Rosé. Our Friday game will run through June 30th, so come out and join us! Signs ups are through the app.

Our Ladies’ Interclub “C” tennis team is enjoying a fantastic season. Birnam Wood’s own Bethany Harkrider is at the helm as captain, and reports that “With only two matches left in the season, the BW/KTC/MC Interclub C team is tied for third place with Alisal Ranch. Birnam Wood players make up approximately 60% of this trial year three club team. The team’s Line 1 has been dominated by Jackie Gregoire and Kendall Pata, both enjoying a nearly undefeated season. The team is looking forward to ending the season strong. We are grateful for the experience and are currently recruiting players for next year’s All Birnam Interclub team.”

While we are talking Tennis, take a look at how our Clay Courts turned out after their reconditioning. They are fabulous!!

Shifting gears for a moment, recently I held an Introduction to Bocce Ball Class. Bocce 101 was a hit! We had 28 participants who signed up, yet 45 magically appeared on training night! It was amazing to see the interest in this fun social game. Thanks to all who came out. Now, let’s hope you are on a bocce team for our summer league.

Let’s not forget about our upcoming 3rd Annual Pickleball Shootout. We have four top level touring professionals playing for us this year. It will be a very special afternoon on the pickleball courts on May 25th You’ll witness some of the best in the sport right here at Birman Wood. Be sure to join us.

Remember, as summer quickly approaches, be sure to hydrate and keep that sunscreen handy. We have both at the courts if you happen to forget.

Get out and enjoy our beautiful climate while playing some of our sports here at the Club. Your fellow members will be out there as well, so join in the fun.

Our coaches quote this month rings true for anyone who has ever had to work hard to achieve. No shortcuts. This is what I see every day with our amazing membership. “You Don’t Demand Respect. You Earn it.”

~Steve Seidler Oregon State University Basketball

Wishing you all good health and fitness. See you on the courts!

Our Clay Courts are like playing tennis atop a birthday cake! Best courts in Montecito.
