RECAP
cascadegolfer.com24 AUGUST 2022 PROPERTY B jorn Bjorke, general manager of McCormick Woods Golf Club, has been working at the woodsy Port Orchard property for 26 of the 36 years the course has been open. Perhaps the most dramatic change he has seen is something that’s essentially unnoticeable. “This was built in the mid-1980s (1986), so the trees that were 30 feet tall then are now 130 feet tall,” Bjorke said. Most of the firs still majestically line the fairway corridors, but some have had to be thinned out over the decades for better sun penetration and air flow. That has produced subtle changes on the course, more openness in some areas, wider landing areas and probably fewer lost balls. Where those long-gone logs ended up is uncertain, but they may still be around the course somewhere, in another form. That’s the other change Bjorke has witnessed housing projects. “We’re on our second master plan,” he said. “They’re still build ing homes here, more on the back nine. There’s another 200 homes that are going in quarter mile away.” That’s certainly the trend there as many folks love living close to the first tee. Bjorke said the course is undergoing some smaller projects, such as building a new tee on the right side of the par-4, 440-yard 10th hole and a new chipping area, with new sand bunker to be added this summer. Golfers have appreciated the care and maintenance the staff has devoted to the course, complicated by the much higher than normal rainfall this spring. Bjorke said coming out of the pandemic “really increased the number of golfers on the course. We’re down from last year but still way up overall. It’s exciting.” McCormick Woods has been wooing golfers since 1986 PRESENTED BY AUGUST 2022 A Bucket with GM Bjorn Bjorke McCormick Woods Golf Club 5155 McCormick Woods Dr. S.W.

To take that on it’s about 280 yards. Or you can lay up short to flat part of the fairway. Hit up on the right and you risk the pond.

Foster Golf Links rarely gets the love it very definitely deserves. At just 4,804 yards off the back tees with a par of 68, it gets dismissed by those who assume it’s a picnic, a piece of cake or a walk in the park. The subject of a ‘Save Some Green’ feature last year, Foster is three years short of its centenary, and a very lovely walk in the park. It might not appeal to the player who thinks golf can only be good if it’s difficult and PGA Tour-worthy, but for those who are new to the game, just love to play for fun and have a little spare time to get some fresh air and a little physical activity Foster is perfect.
PRESENTED
Tee Shot 12th hole The 12th, the old 3rd, is only 326 yards long but it’s pretty dangerous. There’s the river on the right for anyone that slices it over the trees, and the fairway gets pretty narrow at about 220 yards

tee
hole If you lost a shot at the 12th, you have a great chance to get it back two holes later. The 14th is only 248 yards but we play it as a Par 4 There’s a big tree on the left and a bunker on the right, but most people can fly them. And the green’s pretty big so you can definitely find the green from the tee. The next hole is also a really short Par 4 but there’s a big tree on the right of the fairway and bunkers short of the green that make it play a little tougher. Best Par 3 11th hole The old 2nd is just 135 yards long and a lovely tee shot over the river to a long, narrow green with a bridge on the left. There’s a bunker short right for those that mis-hit their tee ball a little. Favorite Hole 6th hole The 6th is actually our Handicap 1 hole and definitely one of the toughest here at 420 yards and with the river on the left, but a lot of bald eagles hang out in the trees between the river and the fairway and it’s just great to watch them. Emergency Nine front or back? I’d take the back. There are some interesting holes and a number of scoring opportunities. It’s just a really fun nine. Go-to lunch item on the menu at Billy Baroo’s Street Tacos There are so many good things on the menu at Billy Baroo’s but have the tacos more often than not.

cascadegolfer.com24 JUNE 2022 PROPERTY Through it all — wars, a depression, recessions, urbanization, gentrification, pandemics and politicians — Jefferson Park Golf Course, high on Beacon Hill above Seattle, continues to cater to generation after generation of golfers. The venerable course that shaped Fred Couples’ game and once hosted the (1967) U.S. Amateur Public Links, celebrates its 107th year of existence in 2022. There have been many changes over the years as the neighborhood has squeezed it down to a tight 5,970 yards with six Par 3s. But it remains what it always was, a reliable short-game test. Land-use pressure has contributed to a unique rerouting of the first three holes of the back nine, all Par 3s — 142, 149 and 85 yards, respectively. Some of the facility’s biggest changes came 100 years after its 1915 opening with a number of course improvements. The practice area now features a two-ti er, 48-station range and an 8,000-square foot clubhouse that includes a restau rant, banquet space and a classroom leased by the First Tee of Greater Seattle — a nod to the next generation. There’s also a nice Par 3 layout where locals can even play Foot Golf. The course has various ‘dynamic pricing’ deals that are especially beneficial to senior, super senior (75-older), military, twilight and even super-twilight golfers. It’s also a course where you can follow in the footsteps of celebrities — Joe Lew is, Tiger Woods, Ken Griffey Jr. and Michael Jordan have all played here, mostly in Fir State Golf Club (the nation’s second-oldest African American organization) events. For a different perspective, lifelong local resident Jimmy Pishue, who grew up on the course and has played it hundreds of times over the decades, gives his thoughts on the key questions. Golf history at every turn high atop Beacon Hill PRESENTED BY JUNE 2022 Toughest Tee Shot 18th hole No. 18 (Par 4, 412 yards) up the hill. Trouble on the left and right. Long second shot into a postage stamp green. And No. 1 (Par 4, 446 yards). From the first tee, slice it and it could be on Beacon Avenue. Chance of hitting a car: Good. Best Birdie Opportunity 8th hole No. 8, (Par 5, 487 yards). Short Par 5 that is reachable in two. Best Par 3 12th hole Just 101 yards (which is also the No. 18 handicap). Favorite Hole 17th hole No. 17 (Par 5, 490 yards). Dogleg right Par 5. Tree lined, downhill second shot. Reachable for longer hitters. Small green. Emergency Nine front or back? Play the Par 3 course. Lots of fun. Go-to lunch item on the menu anything from the Beacon Grill smoker Sliced brisket, pulled pork, Mesquite turkey, Texas Red Hot, or smoked chicken.

Varsity Communications Inc. Corona Premier • 2022 Recap • 5 cascadegolfer.com24 AUGUST 2022 PROPERTY B jorn Bjorke, general manager of McCormick Woods Golf Club, has been working at the woodsy Port Orchard property for 26 of the 36 years the course has been open. Perhaps the most dramatic change he has seen is something that’s essentially unnoticeable. “This was built in the mid-1980s (1986), so the trees that were 30 feet tall then are now 130 feet tall,” Bjorke said. Most of the firs still majestically line the fairway corridors, but some have had to be thinned out over the decades for better sun penetration and air flow. That has produced subtle changes on the course, more openness in some areas, wider landing areas and probably fewer lost balls. Where those long-gone logs ended up is uncertain, but they may still be around the course somewhere, in another form. That’s the other change Bjorke has witnessed – housing projects. “We’re on our second master plan,” he said. “They’re still build ing homes here, more on the back nine. There’s another 200 homes that are going in a quarter mile away.” That’s certainly the trend there as many folks love living close to the first tee.

SHORT GAME

Corona Premier Shootout is two days of world-class two-person best ball and an action-packed weekend

Ocourse, we’re going back — crazy not to after the success of last year, right?

The inaugural two-day Corona Premier Shootout at Gamble Sands produced so many memorable moments we’re still talking about them in the office, and we suspect the 112 golfers that enjoyed the glorious summer week end last year are still enjoying the memories too.

Thirty-six holes on the incredible David Mc Lay-Kidd-designed Sands Course, a trip around the 14hole Quicksands Course (and it was a ‘trip’), evening shenanigans on the Cascades Putting Course and lunch both days added up to the sort of event you remember for years and one that you should sign up for early this year to guarantee your place.

This year’s event takes place on the weekend of July 23-24. The format will be the same as 2021 — two-per son best ball with gross and net divisions and extra priz es for KPs (4), long drive and straight drive. Following play on Saturday evening, we’ll head to the rollicking Cascades Putting Course for Happy Hour and, with a cold Corona in one hand and your putter in the other, watch the sun going down beyond the mighty Columbia River and Cascade Mountains.

There will be prizes for the top five teams daily in both divisions plus the top five overall in both divisions for the weekend. For those of you counting at home, that’s a total of 30 team prizes in addition to those for

long and straight drives each day and several closest- tothe-pin prizes.

The fee will be $850-$950 per team and includes the tournament entry and green fees, Saturday round at Quicksands, use of a cart, range balls, plus lunch on Saturday and Sunday. Lodging is available at the Inn but be sure to book it asap as it will go fast.

Last summer’s Corona Premier Shootout at Gamble Sands was one of the most memorable events we’ve ever staged, and the consensus for the 112 par ticipants was it would need to be repeated. So that’s exactly what we’re doing. The event will return July 23-24 to one of the state’s most beloved courses for two days of unbelievable fun, competition, and more laughs than you can shake a 48-inch driver at. David McLay Kidd’s awesome Sands Course has been one of our favorites since the day it opened nearly eight years ago, mixing firm, linksy golf on amazing fescue turf with amazing views over the Columbia River. We can’t get enough of it and everyone that entered in 2021 said much the same.

18 • Corona Premier • 2022 Recap Varsity Communications Inc. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTNERSHIP! cascadegolfer.com The Corona Premier Happy Hour on Saturday evening at the Cascade Putting Course is a great way to chill with new friends and old.
GAME Corona Premier Gamble Sands Shootout returns July 23-34 register today ow could we not go back and do all again? Last summer’s Corona Premier Shootout at Gamble Sands was one of the most memorable events we’ve ever staged, and the consensus for the 112 par ticipants was it would need to be repeated. So that’s exactly what we’re doing. The event will return July 23-24 to one of the state’s most beloved courses for two days of unbelievable fun, competition, and more laughs than you can shake 48-inch driver at. David McLay Kidd’s awesome Sands Course has been one of our favorites since the day it opened nearly eight years ago, mixing firm, linksy golf on amazing fescue turf with amazing views over the Columbia River. We can’t get enough of it and everyone that entered in 2021 said much the same. On both the Saturday and Sunday you experience 18 magical holes of a two-person Best Ball competition with Gross and Net divisions and extra prizes for KPs (4), long drive and straight drive. On Saturday evening, we’ll hang out on the wild Cascade Putting Course (also designed by McLay-Kidd) for Corona Premier Happy Hour and, of course, anytime that day you can take spin round the incredibly entertaining Quicksands short course (designed by guess who) where anything goes be it bare feet, music, trash-talk and, yes, a cold brew or two. Like 2021, we will prize out the top five teams daily in both Gross and Net, plus the top five overall in both divisions for the weekend. Thirty team prizes available plus Long Drive and Straight Drive daily and more clos est-to-the-pin competitions than you will be able to keep track of. Fee is $1,180 per team and includes the tournament entry and green fees, Saturday round at Quicksands, use of a cart, range balls, plus lunch on Saturday and Sunday. Lodging is available at the Inn but will go fast. Now go find a playing partner before you miss out on the best golf weekend of the year.
