GPYC Yacht Shots Calling GPYC Women Golfers

Summer is one of members’ favorite time of year. It is the time for enjoying outdoor activities such as power boating, sailing, swimming and racquet sports at the Club. Another outdoor activity embraced by GPYC members is golf. Members can be found playing at local courses throughout the summer season, including clubs that welcome GPYC members. Golf is also a popular member activity while attending a summer rendezvous. Many boaters can be found with clubs on board just waiting to try out new courses.

It was in the spirit of club members’ love of golf that GPYC Yacht Shots was formed. Established in 1997 by a group of GPYC women, Yacht Shots aimed to promote golf among GPYC women, provide an opportunity to learn the finer points of the game, and, most of all, form new friendships among club members. Still going strong in its 26th year, the Yacht Shots will begin their 2023 season on Tuesday, June 6, at their home course, Sycamore Hills in Mt. Clemens. Tee time is 10:00 a.m. every Tuesday during the summer months. The Yacht Shots play nine holes and then enjoy lunch as a group. Members always have an option to play eighteen holes.

If you are interested in playing golf with the Yacht Shots, please contact Yacht Shots founder Marney Ramsey by email at msramsey1@comcast.net or (313) 550-0519. It should be a great season. Hope to see you on the course!
