Putting is always fun on the SaddleBrooke greens.
Connie Kotke, Co-President
Consider becoming a playing or social member in the SaddleBrooke Verde Sputters! This lively group provides women of all skill levels a chance to putt 18 holes while enjoying the sunshine, fresh air, and mountain vistas of our beautiful desert setting. In addition to working on your aim, you’ll enjoy luncheons, tournaments, and social events throughout the year. You can join any time. Membership is open to any resident or renter who does not belong to an established golf league.
Congratulations to some of our outstanding putters during the month of April:

Sputters earned a total of 177 holes-in-one over four Mondays of play! Coming in with four holes-in-one during a single round were Dawn Hecht, Cathy Howard, and Karen Taylor. The honors for three holes-in-one during a single round in April go to Lee Kump, Marilyn Palatas, Sandy Ripley, Cathy Howard, Carri Johnson, Lydia O’Connor, Karen Taylor, and Sandra Gerlach.
Each week, two particularly challenging holes on the course are designated as “money holes.” Putters getting a hole-in-one earn a $5 cash prize. In April, our money hole winners were Marilyn Palatas, Lana Steiner, Lydia O’Connor, Anne Rezich, Karen Taylor, Nancy Bowersock, Maggie DeBlock, and Marge Vandermuss.
“Sputting” occurs each Monday, except when the course is shut down for maintenance. During the summer months, check-in at the main putting green behind the SaddleBrooke One clubhouse takes place between 8 and 8:30 a.m., with putting from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m.
