Bunker (In)Consistencies
I have received questions regarding the consistencies of our bunkers. The USGA produced an informative video on the consistency or rather the inconsistencies of bunker hazards. This short video discusses why bunkers are inconsistent and the challenges with maintaining them all to be the same.

GCM Welcomes New Assistant
It is my pleasure to
introduce Mr. Colton Jones (Right). He is replacing Drew Hensley, 2nd
Assistant, who left our management team to join Quail Hollow earlier this
summer. Colton received his Bachelor of Science in Plant and Soil Science and
Minor in Business Administration from the University of Tennessee-Martin.
Colton joins us most recently from working at Pinehurst Resort
#2 where he experienced historic back to back U.S. Opens and the putting green conversion from bentgrass to
ultradwarf bermudagrass. Colton has previously worked at Charlotte Country
Club, Callawassie Island in Hilton Head and volunteered at The Players
Championship at TPC Sawgrass. He has also interned with the USGA Agronomic Turf
Advisory Service under Chris Hartwiger and Patrick O’Brien.
We are happy to have Colton join our team. When you see
Colton on the course please welcome him to The Peninsula Club.
