History of The Hartford Golf Club

Hartford Courant - July 8, 1902

Like many early clubs, the Hartford Golf Club was the vision of a local businessman who first experienced the game while visiting Scotland. In this case the visionary was William St. John, who enlisted the help of other founding members, most notably Emerson Taylor and John Enders, to fashion a crude course on about 30 acres of land near the city center in 1896.

The Hartford Golf Club's first location was on a property east of Prospect Avenue. Today, Elizabeth Park incorporates the original site of the Club where an old barn stood as a makeshift Clubhouse and nine holes of golf Which Enders wrote in his recollections that, "demanded the agility to climb post-and-rail fences and dodge cows." Mercifully, the course lasted only two years.

In 1900, The Hartford Golf Club expanded, merging with the disbanded Hartford Lawn Club. The Lawn Club, founded in 1888, had several tennis courts on Lafayette Street just behind where the old State Library now stands.  In 1901, soon after the merger, the first formal HGC Clubhouse and eighteen-hole golf course were built on Huntington Avenue between Asylum and Albany Avenues. The next year, Hartford was host to its first of many Connecticut Amateur Championships (see article on right). Unfortunately, this clubhouse would be destroyed by fire in 1908.

In 1927 the club was again host to a Connecticut Amateur, and in 1929 was the first course in the state to stage the New England Amateur Championship. It has also been the site of several Connecticut Opens, including the most recent in 2009.
The 1996 USGA Mid-Amateur Championship and the 60th U.S. Girls' Junior Championship were also contested at Hartford.

The Club evolved, for a time, into a young men's Club with card playing at night and three or four dances a year. In 1928, four squash courts were built and the first paddle (platform) tennis court debuted in 1940.  In 1955, it was determined that the Clubhouse had to be completely rebuilt or abandoned. By vote of the membership, construction of the existing clubhouse was approved and the move to the present Club property was made - relocating all activities to the northern side of Albany Avenue. Five new golf holes were also built and incorporated into the existing course, and additional nine new holes were built west of the Clubhouse bringing the Club total to 27 holes of championship quality golf. The golf operation
was recently voted as the best in customer service in a Conn. Magazine readers poll.

The Club, with its varied and unique facilities, had in its time: trap shooting, polo, croquet, curling, bowling on the green, cards, ice skating, sledding, tobogganing, squash, golf, tennis, swimming, sailing, and paddle (platform) tennis. The Club has enlarged the golf and tennis pro shops, built more paddle and tennis courts, enlarged the swimming area and parking facilities, constructed a state-of-the-art grounds building, and expanded the patio to incorporate a panoramic view of the grounds.

The bowling alleys, brought from the old Clubhouse, are still going strong. The squash courts, also brought over from the old Clubhouse, were renovated in 1995 to meet international squash court standards, expand the viewing gallery, and improve the pro shop. Two major Clubhouse renovations, one completed in 1990 and the other in 2007, enabled the Club to provide one of the area's finest private recreational facilities.

Course Rating FAQ’s

What is a "Course Rating"? 
A USGA Course Rating is the evaluation of the playing difficulty of a course compared with other rated courses for the purpose of providing a uniform standard by which to compute USGA Handicap Indexes. A USGA Course Rating is equal to the average of the better half of a scratch golfer's scores under normal conditions.

What is a "Slope Rating"?
A USGA Slope Rating reflects the relative difficulty of a course for players with USGA Handicap Indexes above scratch, compared with the difficulty of the course for a scratch golfer.

How often should a course be rated?
A course must be re-rated at least every ten years, even if it has not changed in any way. Newly constructed courses change rapidly in the first few years, and should be rated once every three years for the first nine years.

What factors are used in Course Rating?
• Yardage is the predominant factor in determining a USGA Course Rating.
• The effective playing length of a hole may be substantially different from its actual length, which includes roll, elevation, dogleg/forced lay-up, prevailing wind and altitude.
• Obstacle factors (bunkers, water, trees, etc.) are considered separately on their effect on the play of scratch and bogey on each hole.

2010 Player of the Year

The fireworks flashing off the clubs of Evan Beirne were indeed bright, but the workmanlike consistency of Jeff Hedden’s game remained the brightest light in the state’s golf firmament in 2010.

Hedden, of Black Hall Club, collected 660 points from eight events to win his third straight Dick Tettelbach Award as CSGA Player of the Year.  Beirne, of New Haven Country Club, earned 475 points from two tournaments to place second.

Neither of the first two finishers is surprising, but the next golfer might raise a few eyebrows. Dave Szewczul of Tunxis Plantation Golf Course, the Senior Player of the Year at 56, chalked up enough points in open competition and also was awarded points for reaching match play in the U.S. Senior Amateur to finish third, just 10 points behind Beirne.

The bulk of Hedden’s points came from three second-place finishes.  He was runner-up in the Russell C. Palmer Cup (to Beirne), the Mid-Amateur Championship, and the Tournament of Champions.  He also earned 125 points by reaching the round-of-sixteen in the Connecticut Amateur.

About the Connecticut State Golf Association

Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame

When the Connnecticut Golf Hall of Fame was established by the Greater Hartford Jaycees in 1955, there were some in-depth impressive candidates with supportable Connecticut connections from whom the first honoree could be chosen: four Men's U.S. Open champions, two Women's U.S. Amateur champions; a winner of the Men's U.S. Open, the National PGA, the British Open and the Masters; and a winner of the U.S., British, Canadian, and French Amateur championships.

Julius Boros



Additionally, there were at least another half dozen who had distinguished themselves in state and regional competition, or otherwise as significant contributors to Connecticut's rich golf tradition. Singularly faithful to both of these standards, the choice of Robert Moir Grant as the state Golf Hall's first honoree was undisputed, either by members of the selection committee or by the Connecticut golf community. Indeed, the always articulate Tommy Armour, equating Grant with the immortal Bob Jones, both of whom he knew well, said that each was a most proper metaphor for all that was good about golf: pure competitive spirit, individual pride and dignity, and good sportsmanship.

 

In 1991, the Connecticut State Golf Association assumed stewardship of the Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame with the dedicated intention of carrying on the successful selection process so well exercised by the Greater Harford Jaycees. Led by Gene Sarazen and Julius Boros, the Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame collectively boasts 21 major golf championship titles: six U.S. Opens, five National PGAs, three National Senior PGAs, two Masters, two British Amateurs, two U.S. Women's Amateurs and one British Open.

Bill Lee's love of golf is an article of faith.  He was a schoolboy star in his native Texas and later in Chicago, and an All-American at Augustana College before attending the Yale Divinity School.  His golf career began in earnest in the 1970s. From 1974-1979 he was a quarterfinalist, finalist, and two-time Champion of the Connecticut Amateur, Runner-up in the New England Amateur and played in five U.S. Amateurs, four U.S. Mid-Amateurs and three British Amateurs.  in 1990 Bill won his third CT Amateur Championship and the Player of the Year Award.  He returned to golf in 2001, after an 11 year hiatus, and has since won the Connecticut Senior Amateur, played in two U.S. Senior Amateurs and served as CSGA Team Captain in 2007 and 2008.

2008: Dick Mayer (Distinguished Golf Achievement)

Stamford native Dick Mayer won his first PGA Tour event in 1953 and his last in 1965.  Mayer won twice in 1957 making him one of golf's greats.  He became the 1957 U.S. Open champion at Inverness Club, OH ($7,200) and later won the 1957 World Championship of Golf at Tam O'Shanter, IL ($50,000).  He topped the PGA Tour money list with $65,835, was named PGA Player of the Year an played on the 1957 Ryder Cup team at the Lindrick Club in Yorkshire, England.  Mayer won seven PGA Tour titles:  The Eastern Open; The Miami Beach International Four-Ball (with Tommy Bolt); The Kansas City Open; the Philadelphia Daily News Open; the U.S. Open Championship; The World Championship of Golf; and the Greater New Orleans Open.

2008: E.B. "Pete" Broadbent (Distinguished Service)

Pete Broadbent has played and promoted the game he loves since joining the New Haven Country Club in 1950.  Broadbent has an extensive record of serving on various boards and committees at New Haven CC, the CSGA, the USGA and other golf organizations.  He was president of NHCC, the CSGA and the Junior-Senior Golf Association.  He remains a member of NHCC, the CSGA Board of Directors, the Connecticut Senior Golf Association and the U.S. Senior Golf Association.  For 18 years he has served on the USGA Senior Amateur Championship committee and has been an official and referee at the championship.  He has long been an on-course official for the New Haven CC, the CSGA, the Florida State GA, The Connecticut Women's GA and others.  Pete Broadbent is a model for those who love and give back to the game of golf.

2009: Fran Marrello (Distinguished Golf Achievement)

In 1984, Fran Marrello's name topped the leader board late in the first round of the U.S. Open at Winged Foot CC. “A friend took a picture of the leader board with my name on top,” Marrello said. “I was ahead of guys like Jack Nicklaus, Seve Ballesteros, Hale Irwin and Tom Watson.”   His election to the Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame places his name indelibly on a list of the state’s greatest men and women golfers of all time.

At 55, Marrello is still adding to his record. He carded a 5-under 208 at Wethersfield CC in August to win his second Connecticut PGA Championship by four shots. He also won in 2001. He has 15 Connecticut Section championships to his credit, including seven Match Play titles (1990, ’92, ’94-97, 2008), the Tournament of Champions twice (1992, 2007), the Assistant Professional Championship three times (1985, ’87, ’92), and the Walter Lowell Tournament twice.

He earned the Section Player of the Year award six times, including five years in a row from 1992-96. He also won in 2007. He was Senior Player of the Year in 2005, ’07 and ’08.

Fran has played in 11 majors, three PGAs, four US Opens, three U.S. Amateurs and one US Senior Open. He has played in 15 National Club Pro championships and five National Senior Club Pro championships.  In 1984, he placed second in six tournaments, including the Connecticut Open, Vermont Open and New Hampshire Classic, a Tournament Players Series event, forerunner of the Nationwide Tour.

2009: Barbara Young (Distinguished Golf Achievement)

Barbara Young began playing golf at the age of 30 and she still plays regularly at 76, even after surgical replacements in both knees. When the Young family moved to Westport, she developed into a golf champion and now, some three decades later, she joins the state’s most accomplished players as a member of the Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame.

Playing at Westport Longshore, then at Aspetuck Valley CC, Young eventually won the Connecticut Women’s Golf Association championship in 1988 and ’91, and took the Connecticut Women’s Amateur title six times. Before moving to North Carolina, Young won the New England WGA championship twice (1986 and ’91), and has since captured the New England Senior Women’s Amateur title nine times.  Two highlights of Young’s career were a second-place finish in the 1986 U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur at Lakewood GC in Alabama, and a victory in the 1992 Canadian Senior Amateur in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.  Among other titles, she has won the CWGA Seniors three times, the Connecticut Women’s Senior Amateur eight times, the Women’s Eastern GA Seniors (1992), the Metropolitan (NY) Golf Association Seniors (1989), the North and South Seniors six times, the North Carolina Seniors twice (1994, ’99), the Carolinas Seniors (1998) and the Women’s Eastern Super Seniors three times (1999-2001).

Long before she took up golf, Young had an interesting athletic career as a shortstop for the Kenosha, WI, Comets of the All-American Girls Baseball League, made famous by the 1992 movie “A League of Their Own,” starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Madonna. “I was still in high school when 12 of us from New England traveled to South Bend (Indiana) for tryouts,” Young said. “The league was popular because it filled a void with a lot of the men off at war. It was fun while it lasted. We even played in Yankee Stadium.”

Young’s athletic talent was not limited to golf and baseball. In tennis, she was New England Junior champion in 1948, played on the Junior Girls Whiteman Cup team in 1949, and lost to Maureen Connolly in the National Juniors in 1949. She also was an All-State field hockey player at Brookline (MA) High, and won the New England Platform Tennis doubles title in 1976. She received a Connecticut Sports Writers Alliance Gold Key in 1994.

2009: Bruce Berlet (Distinguished Service to Golf)

Bruce Berlet was the pulse beat of Connecticut’s golf community as he chronicled the sport for all of the 38 years he worked at the Hartford Courant. Few reporters immerse themselves in their beat the way Berlet did with golf on the state and national scenes. He did it because he loved it. His passion for the game and for those who play it was evident in his writing. Because his work informed state golfers and enhanced their enjoyment of the game for so long, he belongs in the Connecticut Golf Hall of Fame.  Berlet, 61, covered the Greater Hartford Open 39 times as it changed names and courses. He filed stories from 30 Masters, 15 U.S. Opens, three PGA Championships and three Ryder Cup matches. More importantly, perhaps, he wrote stories about the people who play the game at the state and regional level. He stood just off the green as the final putts were struck at hundreds of CSGA, Connecticut Section PGA, Connecticut Women’s Golf Association and Southern New England Women’s Golf Association championships. Over time, Berlet became the ultimate insider as scores of players he wrote about became his friends.

“I’m particularly honored by this because of my affiliation with the CSGA, which goes back to the 1960s when I received a Widdy Neale Scholarship,” Berlet said.

Berlet also covered the Hartford Whalers and Wolf Pack hockey teams, UConn men’s and women’s basketball, Yale football and various other sports. He has written articles for Golf Digest, Golf Magazine, Golf World, the New England Journal of Golf and other publications. He was co-host, with Bob Samek, of Connecticut Golfer on Radio for eight years. He has helped promote several charity golf tournaments and served on the Hall of Fame selection committee for 15 years. He was a golfer with a single-digit handicap for many years.

2010: Dave Szewczul (Distinguished Golf Achievement)

Dave Szewczul has been playing in the top echelon of state golf for thirty-five years.  Dave used a runner-up finish in the 1975 Connecticut Amateur to future Hall of Fame member William Lee to jumpstart an amateur career that continues to this day.  Over the years Szewczul has won seven individual state titles, six four-ball crowns, and most recently a New England championship. 2010 was arguably his best year thus far.  Szewczul began the year with a victory in the Senior Match Play Championship, followed that up with a win in the Connecticut Senior Open and finished the year off with a victory at the New England Senior Amateur.  Along the way, he also advanced to the second round of the US Senior Amateur and won the Connecticut Senior Four-Ball Championship. In his career, Szewczul has participated in sixteen USGA national championships, two British Amateurs, and a US Senior Open where he played a practice round with Arnold Palmer.  For the past two years he has also earned the CSGA Senior Player of the Year award named in honor of Hall of Fame member Dick Siderowf.

2010: Heather Daly-Donofrio (Distinguished Golf Achievement)

Heather Daly-Donofrio, who won two tournaments on the LPGA Tour, is very much a Connecticut girl.  She played on the Yale golf team for four years before graduating cum laude in 1991.  In her brief amateur career she managed to win the Connecticut Women’s Golf Association championship twice.  She began her professional career on the Futures Tour earning four victories over a three-year span.  She graduated to the LPGA Tour in 1998 and over the next eleven seasons won more than a million dollars including two victories.  Even as a full time LPGA player, she managed to find time to return to Yale to coach the women’s golf team from 1997-2000.  In 2005, she was voted by fellow tour professionals as the William and Mousie Powell Award recipient as the player who best exemplifies the spirit, ideals and values of the LPGA.  She has also served as president of the LPGA Executive Committee. Currently, Daly-Donofrio works as Director of Media Relations for the LPGA Tour.

2010: Bob Hopkins (Distinguished Service to Golf)

For close to twenty years all course ratings in southern Connecticut have come from Bob Hopkins.  Beginning in the early 1990’s, Bob took over a relatively new course rating system and continues to lead rating teams to this day.  Hopkins is a long time member of Woodway Country Club in Darien where he has served in a variety of positions culminating with his presidency in 1983.  At that time, Bob joined the CSGA Executive Committee and ultimately served as president in 1995-96.  He has been a member of numerous committees and associations including the USGA Regional Affairs Committee, the US Senior Golf Association, and Connecticut State Seniors Golf Association.  A Darien native, Hopkins graduated from Dartmouth College and was a Navy fighter pilot during the Korean War.

Course Rating FAQ’s

What is a "Course Rating"? 
A USGA Course Rating is the evaluation of the playing difficulty of a course compared with other rated courses for the purpose of providing a uniform standard by which to compute USGA Handicap Indexes. A USGA Course Rating is equal to the average of the better half of a scratch golfer's scores under normal conditions.

What is a "Slope Rating"?
A USGA Slope Rating reflects the relative difficulty of a course for players with USGA Handicap Indexes above scratch, compared with the difficulty of the course for a scratch golfer.

How often should a course be rated?
A course must be re-rated at least every ten years, even if it has not changed in any way. Newly constructed courses change rapidly in the first few years, and should be rated once every three years for the first nine years.

What factors are used in Course Rating?
• Yardage is the predominant factor in determining a USGA Course Rating.
• The effective playing length of a hole may be substantially different from its actual length, which includes roll, elevation, dogleg/forced lay-up, prevailing wind and altitude.
• Obstacle factors (bunkers, water, trees, etc.) are considered separately on their effect on the play of scratch and bogey on each hole.  

Playing Length & Obstacle Factors

The following correction factors are evaluated to determine if the hole is effectively longer or shorter than the actual measured length: 

Roll: Roll is an evaluation of how far the tee shots for scratch and bogey golfers roll, and the effect that has on the playing length of the course.

Elevation:  Elevation is a measure of how changes in elevation from tee to green affect the playing length of a hole.

Dogleg/ Forced Lay-Up: Dogleg/forced lay-up is a measure of how much longer or shorter a hole is played because it has a bend (allowing players to cut the corner or forcing them to lay up), or because it has obstacles, such as water or deep bunkers, crossing the fairway in the players' landing zones (which force the scratch or bogey golfer to hit less than a full shot).

Prevailing Wind:   Prevailing wind is a measure of the effect of constant wind on seaside courses, plains courses, or other courses unprotected from the wind.

Altitude : Altitude is an evaluation for courses at 2,000 feet or more altitude that will play shorter than their measured length because shots fly farther in the thin air.

The following obstacle factors are determined for each landing zone for both the scratch and the bogey golfer:

Topography:   Topography is a factor if the stance or lie in the landing zone is affected by slopes or mounds, or the shot to the green is uphill or downhill, making club selection more difficult.

Fairway: Fairway is an evaluation of the difficulty of keeping the ball in play from tee to green. Fairway ratings are based on fairway width in all landing zones, hole length, and nearby trees, hazards, and punitive rough.

Green Target: Green Target is an evaluation of the difficulty of hitting the green with the approach shot. Primary considerations are target size, length of shot, how well the green holds, and the difficulty of normal hole locations.

Recoverability and Rough:  Recoverability and Rough is the evaluation of the probability of missing the tee shot landing zone and the green, and the difficulty of recovering if either, or both, is missed. The Green Target rating drives the Recoverability and Rough rating value.

Bunkers:  Bunkers is the evaluation of their proximity to target areas and the difficulty of recovery from them. The Green Target rating also drives the Bunkers rating value. 

Out of Bounds/ExtremeRough: OB/Extreme Rough is the evaluation of the distance from the center of the landing zone to the OB/Extreme Rough. High grass, heavy underbrush in trees, and other extreme conditions are rated in this category because a ball in such "extreme rough" is likely to be lost or virtually unplayable. Such areas may also be rated under Recoverability and Rough.

Water Hazards: Water Hazards is the evaluation of a water hazard and its distance from the landing zone or green and, in the case of a hazard crossing a hole, the problem involved in playing over the hazard. The Water Hazards rating is applied on any hole where there is a water hazard or lateral water hazard.

Trees:   Trees is the evaluation of the size and density of the trees, their distance from the center of the landing zone or green, the length of the shot to that target, and the difficulty of recovery.

Green Surface: Green Surface is the evaluation of a green's difficulty from a putting standpoint.  Green speed and surface contouring are the main factors. The size of the green is considered irrelevant in evaluating putting difficulty. A Stimpmeter is utilized to measure the speed of the greens based on midseason conditions.

Psychological: Psychological is the evaluation of the cumulative effect of the other obstacles. The location of many punitive obstacles close to a target area creates uneasiness in the mind of the player and thus affects his or her score. This value is purely mathematical and is added after the on-course rating is complete.

Each obstacle is assigned a value of 0 to 10, depending on its relation to how a scratch or bogey golfer would play the hole. When the evaluation is complete, the numbers for each hole's obstacles are totaled and multiplied by a relative weighting factor. The weighted obstacle stroke values are applied to scratch and bogey formulas and then converted to strokes. Those strokes are added or subtracted from the Yardage Rating to produce a Bogey Rating and USGA Course Rating.

Course Rating Definitions

The following are terms essential to the USGA Course Rating System:

Scratch Golfer: A male scratch golfer is a player who can play to a Course Handicap of zero on any and all rated golf courses. A male scratch golfer, for rating purposes, can hit tee shots an average of 250 yards and can reach a 470-yard hole in two shots at sea level. A female scratch golfer is a player who can play to a Course Handicap of zero on any and all rated golf courses. A female scratch golfer, for rating purposes, can hit tee shots an average of 210 yards and can reach a 400-yard hole in two shots at sea level.

USGA Course Rating: A USGA Course Rating is the evaluation of the playing difficulty of a course for scratch golfers under normal course and weather conditions. It is expressed as the number of strokes taken to one decimal place (72.5), and is based on yardage and other obstacles to the extent that they affect the scoring difficulty of the scratch golfer. 

Bogey Golfer:   A male bogey golfer is a player who has a Course Handicap™ of approximately 20 on a course of standard difficulty. He can hit tee shots an average of 200 yards and can reach a 370-yard hole in two shots at sea level.  A female bogey golfer is a player who has a Course Handicap of approximately 24 on a course of standard difficulty. She can hit tee shots an average of 150 yards and can reach a 280-yard hole in two shots at sea level.

Bogey Rating™:   A Bogey Rating is the evaluation of the playing difficulty of a course for bogey golfers under normal course and weather conditions. It is expressed as the number of strokes taken to one decimal place (92.1), and is based on yardage and other obstacles to the extent that they affect the scoring difficulty of the bogey golfer.

Slope Rating®: A Slope Rating is the USGA® mark that indicates the measurement of the relative playing difficulty of a course for players who are not scratch golfers, compared to scratch golfers.  It is computed from the difference between the Bogey Rating and the USGA Course Rating times a constant factor and is expressed as a whole number from 55 to 155.

Course Rating Information

CSGA Course Rating Teams rate 25 to 30 courses per year. 

The CSGA Member Clubs are rated once every ten years, earlier if the course has undergone significant renovations. Per USGA guidelines, new courses are rated once every three years for nine years until mature. 

The men’s course rating teams are broken into two regions (North and South) with both regions employing a course rating captain.  With assistance from the CSGA, the Connecticut Women’s Golf Association (CWGA) and the Southern New England Women’s Golf Association (SNEWGA) conduct ratings from all women’s tees.

When a golf course is rated, the rating team, using a prescribed USGA methodology, evaluates the overall difficulty of the golf course by taking into account the 10 obstacles and effective length corrections on every hole. They give a numerical evaluation of all obstacles on each hole – topography, fairway, green target, recovery and rough, bunkers, out of bounds, water, trees, green surface, and psychology – and use those numbers to calculate a rating.

Golf Clubs for Connecticut Schools

The majority of students that play golf, whether often or occasionally, do not maintain an official USGA Handicap Index.  For this reason the Connecticut State Golf Association (CSGA) has taken the initiative to introduce and provide the USGA Handicap System to students, teachers and administrators of Connecticut schools by creating “golf clubs” for schools.

This will:

·        Make the game of golf more enjoyable by enabling players of differing abilities to compete on an equitable basis.

·        Expose the golfer to peer review and the requirement to post all scores played during an active season.

·        For golfers of superior ability, it will satisfy the USGA requirement that all players in USGA championships maintain a USGA Handicap Index.

·        Provide a fair Course Handicap for each player, regardless of ability, and adjust a player’s Handicap Index up or down as the player’s game changes.
 

A great opportunity to be part of the CT State Golf Association community!

CSGA Tournament Selection Criteria

Most CSGA tournaments have a predetermined size of field.  The popularity of a number of CSGA events, in particular team events, has resulted in many events being oversubscribed.  This policy addresses the criteria the CSGA will employ when oversubscription occurs.

Past Performance:  Past individual wins and high tournament finishes in recent years and position on the prior year’s Player of the Year Point System will be considered for both individual and team events as these players have proven that their participation increases the level of competition.  Individuals who have performed admirably in past competitions will be given greater consideration for selection. 

Tournament Participation:  Individuals who frequently participate in CSGA competitions will be given greater consideration for selection than individuals who do not often play in events.

Timeliness of Application:  A timely application is guaranteed consideration for selection into an oversubscribed field; however, an application received within the specified time frame does not automatically admit an individual into the field.  While the time and date an application is received is not a primary consideration, it may be used as the selection criterion when two otherwise comparable applications are being considered.

The CSGA Scholarship Fund

The William (Widdy) Neale Scholarship Fund, Inc. is administered by the Connecticut State Golf Association and since inception has awarded $2.4 million in scholarship aid to 514 high school seniors. Although the program was originally organized to benefit caddies, the applicant pool has been expanded to include graduating seniors employed at CSGA member clubs in various capacities (golf shop, caddies, clubhouse workers, grounds staff) who have worked for at least one golf season and who continue to be employed in the current year.  Depending on a recipient’s academic good standing and continuing financial need, the scholarships may be renewed for three additional years.

The CSGA began awarding college scholarships in 1954 deriving funds from a one dollar charge included in the then handicap fee.  Today, the CSGA member service fee continues to be the primary source of scholarship funds. Then CSGA Executive Director William (Widdy) Neale and scholarship committee chairman and later (1962-63) CSGA President James Killington are credited with convincing the CSGA Executive Committee to establish this Scholarship Fund.  Through the efforts of Attorney Herbert Emanuelson, Jr. (CSGA President 1973-74) the Fund was incorporated as a not-for-profit, charitable organization in 1985-86 and named for Widdy Neale.  Yale graduate Widdy Neale was a career Yale University sports administrator and CSGA Executive Director from 1946-86. 

2012 - 2015 Widdy Neale Scholarship Recipients

The Fund administration is coordinated and financially supported by the CSGA.  The Bob Pryde Scholarship Fund administered by The Community Foundation For Greater New Haven is a significant annual contributor to the Fund.  Robert D. Pryde was the first Executive Director of the CSGA from 1922 to 1946.  The Junior-Senior Golfing Society of Connecticut contributes scholarship funding in honor of their past Executive Director Harry Keffer.  The Connecticut State Seniors Golf Association, the Senior Golfers of Connecticut, and the New England Senior Golfers' Association are three organizations that also annually contribute to the Fund.


Another important source of funding is the Fund's "donor recognition" program for individual contributions at the Bronze level of $50 to $199, the Silver level of $200 to $999, the Gold level of $1,000 to $4,999, and the Platinum level of $5,000 and above.  Such donors have their names published in the CSGA magazine "The Connecticut Golfer, " receive scholarship bagtags, and at the Silver level receive CSGA-Scholarship Fund golf caps, and at the Gold level have a scholarship awarded in their names, and at the Platinum level donors are recognized at the CSGA Annual Meeting.


CSGA Past President Richard Zanini serves as Chairman of the Fund.  Going forward the CSGA hopes to increase scholarship funding by encouraging member clubs to make additional contributions to augment the fund at a time when more club employees are applying for assistance and when college costs are dramatically increasing.


ELIGIBILITY

1.  Young men and women who have been employed at a CSGA member club for a minimum period of one full golf season and who will be employed at a member club in the current year.  Employment eligibility includes caddie, golf shop staff, grounds/maintenance worker, and clubhouse, dining room, locker room, or other appropriate assignment.

2.  Graduating high school senior in the current year who demonstrates good character and citizenship.

3.  Demonstrated volunteer service in the school and in the community.

4.  Demonstrated financial need in order to attend college.

5.  At least three letters of recommendation from: a club officer or employing official; a teacher, principal, or guidance counselor; and a community member who knows the applicant well enough to write such a reference.

6.  The recommendation of the CSGA appointed Club Representative.

7.  Each CSGA member club is limited to one recommended applicant annually.

For specific application instructions, materials, and deadlines, contact the CSGA
representative at the member club or the CSGA office, 35 Cold Spring Road, Suite 212, Rocky Hill, CT 06067.  Telephone 860-257-4171 or Fax 860-257-8355.

CSGA Launches New Web Site

The CSGA is proud to unveil its new and improved website. The CSGA staff, with the help and support of Liquamedia, LLC, has been busy this winter redesigning its internet web presence. The new site will help the CSGA present a more professional and engaging image to its members and the general public while helping the organization build upon its brand as the Steward of Amateur Golf in the State of Connecticut.

The CSGA’s new web site features frequently updated news, photos and information about golf in the region as well as a series on the history of the CSGA. Of course, the site features scheduling information and registration for the CSGA’s Championship and One Day tournaments. Be sure to visit the Championships Calendar of Events and click on any individual event to view full details.

Those interested in playing golf in the State of Connecticut are encouraged to read the article “Why Should You Obtain a CSGA/GHIN Handicap” and the Handicapping section to find out more. A visit to the Member Clubs page will help in locating a public or private club in your area.

All golfers should check out the CSGA Player’s Club. Registering online and paying a $10 fee will provide players with privileges at participating member clubs, a CSGA Players Club Hat, membership card, and a the option to receive a set of personalized shaft labels.

Everyone is encouraged to register on the site to receive news and event notifications and, for those with a GHIN handicap, the ability to post scores and review your index online. You will also be able to share your comments on selected articles with other registered members of the site.

Can I post a 9-hole score to my "18-hole" Handicap Index?

Can I post scores on the Internet?

Can I post scores during the winter?

What does the "R" next to by handicap indicate?

What does the letter mean next to my Handicap Index?

What does the letter(s) mean next to my scores?


What scores are acceptable for handicap posting purposes?
Almost all scores are acceptable due to the basic premise of the USGA Handicap System™ which states that every player will try to make the best score at each hole in every round, regardless of where the round is played, and that the player will post every acceptable round for peer review. All of the following are acceptable scores:

  • When at least seven holes are played (7-12 holes are posted as a 9-hole score; 13 or more are posted as an 18-hole score)
  • Scores on all courses with a valid Course Rating™ and Slope Rating®
  • Scores in all forms of competition: match play, stroke play, and team competitions where each player play their own ball
  • Scores made under The Rules of Golf.
  • Scores played under the local rule of “preferred lies”
  • Scores made in an area observing an active season

     Return to FAQ list

What is Equitable Stroke Control (ESC)?
Equitable stroke control (ESC) is a downward adjustment of an individual hole score based on handicap index to ensure that one bad hole does not have a disproportionate effect on a golfers handicap. This procedure is used for handicap score posting and is not to be used in any type of competition. Read More...

     Return to FAQ list

What is a course handicap?
A Course Handicap represents the number of strokes needed to play to the level of a scratch golfer—or the Course Rating™ of a particular set of tees. A Course Handicap is expressed as a whole number (e.g. 15).

     Return to FAQ list

Can I post a 9-hole score to my "18-hole" Handicap Index?
As long as the score was acceptable for handicap posting purposes you must post the 9-hole round. Each nine holes on a golf course has its own Course Rating™ and Slope Rating®. Make sure to post the nine-hole score with the appropriate nine-hole Course Rating and Slope Rating. Two nine-hole scores will eventually be combined to create an 18-hole score and be designated with the letter "C."

     Return to FAQ list

Can I post scores on the Internet?
Yes, as long as your golf club has specified that they want to offer this feature to their members. Inquire with your handicap chairperson for more information. Scores posted on the Internet will be noted on your handicap card by an "I".

     Return to FAQ list

Can I post scores during the winter?
Yes, but not in Connecticut.  No rounds played in Connecticut during the off season may be counted towards your handicap index. Rounds played in an area that is observing an active season must be posted.

     Return to FAQ list

Can I post out of state rounds?
Yes. Many states use the Golf Handicap Information Network (GHIN) system so you can post a round score the same way you would at an away club in Connecticut. Even if the state does not use the GHIN system you can post your score manually by entering the Course Rating™ and Slope Rating®.

     Return to FAQ list

How do I correct a wrong score that is on my handicap record?
The handicap chairperson at your club can correct or delete incorrect scores in your record.

     Return to FAQ list

Can my Handicap Committee modify or change my USGA Handicap Index?
Yes, Rule 8-4/b of the USGA Handicap System states the following: The Handicap Committee has the responsibility of making certain that a player's USGA Handicap Index reflects his/her potential scoring ability. There are five areas in which a Handicap Committee may modify a player's USGA Handicap Index. (i) Improving faster than the system can react. (ii) Numerous away scores change Handicap Index (iii) Temporary Disability (iv) Failure to post scores (v) Player manipulates round.

     Return to FAQ list

What does the "R" next to by handicap indicate?
The "R" indicated that your handicap index has been “reduced” due to exceptional tournament scores. The USGA Handicap System automatically reduces the handicap index of a player who consistently scores better in competitions than in informal play. The procedure requires a player have two or more eligible tournament scores and a minimum of two tournament score differentials which are at least three strokes better than the player's current handicap index.  An eligible tournament score is a tournament score made within the current year or a tournament score made within the players last twenty scores. All tournament scores posted will stay on a scoring record for a year from the date that they were made. A tournament score may stay on a record longer if in a year it is still a part of the most recent twenty scores.

     Return to FAQ list

What does the letter mean next to my Handicap Index?
The following is a list of possible handicap index designations:
J = Local Nine-hole Handicap for player's home course.
L = Local Handicap for player's home course.
M = Modified Index (Index has been changed by the golfer's handicap committee)
N = Nine-hole USGA Handicap Index
R = Reduction (Reduced automatically by GHIN program for exceptional tournament play

     Return to FAQ list

What does the letter(s) mean next to my scores?
The letter(s) after each score indicate(s) specific aspects of a score within a player’s record. The following is a list of possible score types:
A = Away
I = Internet
AI = Away Internet
P = Penalty
C = Combined Nines
T = Tournament
TI = Tournament Internet
CI = Combined Internet Scores

League of Connecticut Golf Clubs

1899: A time of plus fours, niblicks and a new league of golf clubs

New Haven Country Club circa 1899

 

To appreciate the founding of the Connecticut State Golf Association, one must have a sense of time and place.  This was horse-and-buggy, gas-lamp America before the Wright brothers' biplane or Henry Ford's Model T.  This was America when football, invented by Yale man and New Haven Country Club member Water Camp, was in its third decade and struggling for recognition outside a few elite colleges in the East.  More significantly, this was America when the ancient Scottish game of golf was a novelty unknown; perhaps foreign would be the better word, to all but a few.  It had been barely a decade since the members of Scotsman John Reid's "apple tree gang" hung their coats on a gnarled old tree and hit gutta percha balls over crude fairways in a Yonkers, NY pasture.  That playing ground, aptly named the St. Andrews Country Club in 1888, is thought to be the first organized golf club in America.

So it was with considerable foresight that twelve charter clubs were drawn together in 1899 to form the League of Connecticut Golf Clubs (later to become the CSGA), the nation's oldest state golf association.  The official founding most likely occurred in July of 1899 when the first state golf championship, the forerunner to the Connecticut Amateur, was held at Brooklawn Country Club.

If the CSGA was the inspiration of a single forward-thinking man, someone like Robert D. Pryde, for example, we have no way of knowing who that person was.  There is no doubt, though, that the association, which began over a century ago, left a rich legacy which the CSGA continues today.

Jeff Witherwax Elected CSGA President

Long time CSGA Executive Committee member Jeff Witherwax was elected as the CSGA's 57th president at the association’s 111th annual meeting on December 7th at New Haven Country Club.

"It’s a great thrill and privilege to serve as president of this distinguished organization for the next two years," said Witherwax following his election. "I look forward to working with all of our quality volunteers, staff and members of the Connecticut golf community."

Witherwax began his involvement with the CSGA as a club representative and was quickly promoted to regional vice president.  In 2001, Jeff was asked by long-time friend and past president Peter Bulkely to join the CSGA Executive Committee. Since then, Witherwax has served as treasurer, vice president & most recently as a special advisor.  During the past five years he has also served as the Director of Rules Education, a position he will retain.  When asked about his Rules knowledge, which is second to none, Witherwax humbly replied, “As to my Rules knowledge; I can read, I have been doing it a long time, and the CSGA has good radios.”

Witherwax will replace John Walsh, New Haven Country Club, who led the CSGA as president in 2009 and 2010. “It has been an honor to serve the CSGA as president the past two years,” said Walsh. “I really enjoyed my time on the Executive Committee and I look forward to continuing my involvement with the CSGA." Beginning in 2011, Walsh will chair the newly formed Government Relations Committee and will be tasked with keeping up to date on all legislative issues that pertain to golf in Connecticut.

Jeff Witherwax, a member of Heritage Village Country Club, is the first member of that club to serve as president of the CSGA.  In 2003, Witherwax became one of only 275 U.S. members of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews when he was sponsored by CSGA past president Charlie Arnold.

The 2011 CSGA Executive Committee is as follows;

President - Jeff Witherwax, Heritage Village Country Club

Vice President - Nick Pahoulis, Tallwood Country Club

Vice President - Stan McFarland, Manchester Country Club

Vice President - John Marion, Norwich Golf Club

Treasurer - Jim Healey, Hartford Golf Club

Secretary – Peter Kaufmann, Woodway Country Club

Fairfield County Clubs Highlight 2011 Schedule

The 2011 CSGA championship schedule is highlighted by two major championships being contested at Fairfield County clubs.  The remaining championship and qualifying venues feature several preeminent and historical CSGA member clubs.

Rolling Hills Country Club will host its first Connecticut Amateur in mid-June.  This incredible venue will be the only member club besides Watertown Golf Club, which will host its 44th consecutive Junior Amateur this year, to host CSGA majors in back to back years.  Rolling Hills hosted last year’s Russell C. Palmer Cup where Evan Beirne from New Haven CC held off a late rally by Player of the Year Jeff Hedden, Black Hall Club, to win his first CSGA major championship.   

The state’s best amateurs and professionals will also head to Fairfield County for this year’s Connecticut Open.  Brooklawn Country Club will be hosting its sixth Connecticut Open, 2nd most all time to New Haven’s seven.  When Brooklawn last hosted the Connecticut Open, twenty years ago, Connecticut Section PGA member Mike Colandro finished at a six under par to claim his second Open title.

This year’s schedule begins with the Two Man Championship in honor of Bill Hermanson at Black Hall Club in early May.  The Two Man Championship will no longer be an invitational event and will be open to any teams with a 9.0 combined handicap index or less.  The annual Julius Boros Challenge Cup will be contested for the 40th time and will return to New Haven Country Club after a one year hiatus due to a green renovation project that forced the event to move to Tumble Brook County Club last year.

Forty-six CSGA member clubs will host CSGA championships, qualifiers, one-day tournaments, the New England Senior Amateur and USGA qualifiers conducted by the CSGA in 2011.

History of Brooklawn Country Club

The 104-year-old Brooklawn Country Club in Bridgeport is one of the oldest clubs in Connecticut, indeed the nation. It joined the United States Golf Association in 1896, one of the first dozen clubs to do so. Tom Morris, grandson of four-time British Open champion "Old Tom" Morris of St. Andrews, Scotland, was the first golf professional.

In 1918, Gene Sarazen began his career at Brooklawn as an apprentice clubmaker. Julius Boros, who grew up in the area, often played the course as an amateur. The original course was nine holes laid out on rolling farmland on the outskirts of the city. It was expanded to 18 holes in 1911, and in 1930, famed architect A.W. Tillinghast designed the present layout.

Three USGA national championships have been held at Brooklawn: the 1974 Junior Boys won by David Nevatt, the 1979 Women's Open won by Jerilyn Britz, and the 1987 Senior Open won by Gary Player. Over the years, Brooklawn has been the site numerous CSGA Championships.

History of The Country Club of Farmington

The founders of the Country Club of Farmington were interested in fox pelts first, and golf balls later. They met for "club activities" as early as 1892, but it was several years before their primary endeavors turned from hunting to golf.

In 1894, a group of sportsmen purchased the Whiting Estate in order to organize a country club, and by 1896, the Farmington Country Club was incorporated. A nine-hole course was laid out at that time by Arthur Fenn of Waterbury and golf overtook curling, tennis and other activities as the focus of the club. Additional land was purchased in the 1920s and Devereux Emmet was hired to lay out an 18-hole course. Emmet, a former quarter-finalist in the British Amateur had designed the Garden City Golf Course on Long Island, site of the 1902 U.S. Open. Farmington's expanded course was opened in 1924, and despite many changes over the years, Emmet's design is the basis of the layout today.

Significant changes to the second, seveteenth and eighteenth holes were made in 1939 by the eminent course designer Geoffrey Cornish. Cornish returned in the early 1960s to devise a long-term plan for improvements, which was adopted in 1964, and executed over several years.

In 1946, Bobby Grant, whom the Connecticut Amateur Medalist is name, chipped in for an eagle from thirty yards short of the green on the first playoff hole to win the inaugural member-guest tournament with John Clancy. He promptly joined the club, and although he considered Wethersfield CC his home course, he was a member of the CC of Farmington for 10 years.  W.K. Reid won the most significant championship outside the club with the 1929 Connecticut Amateur, but W.W. Weldon was Farmington's best golfer of the century winning twenty-five club championships from 1955 to 1984.

History of The Country Club of Waterbury

The original nine-hole course of the Waterbury Golf Association was laid out in 1896 by Arthur Fenn, although the club was not incorporated until 1899. By then it had an abundant membership of 200 golfers playing on what came to be called "the golf lots" along the Naugatuck River.

The club purchased 200 acres on Oronoke Road (at $50 an acre) in 1906 and became known as the Country Club of Waterbury. After the Naugatuck River flooded in 1908, a clubhouse, nine-hole course and four tennis courts were constructed. The course was extended to 18-holes in 1919, and in 1929, course designer Donald Ross assigned Charles Baskin to supervise construction of the present course and clubhouse.

The course record from the championship tees was set at 62 in 1963 by Dick Siderowf while qualifying for the USGA Mid-Amateur Championship. W. Bucky Merriman represented the CC of Waterbury when he won the North & South Amateur in 1923, and Frank English carried the club banner during two Connecticut Amateur Championships. Caroline Keggi holds the women's course record at 66, set in 1984, a year in which she won the Connecticut Match and Stroke Play Championships, the New England Amateur Championship, and qualified for the USGA Amateur. She was club champion several times before moving to the LPGA Tour.

Present club professional, Tom Gleeton, was the club champion in 1974, before spending a year on the PGA Tour in 1986. He has won several Connecticut Section PGA events, placed second in the Connecticut Open in 1998 (the same year he was named Connecticut Section PGA Player of the Year) and has served as president of the Connecticut Section PGA.

History of Greenwich Country Club

The Greenwich Country Club was organized as the Fairfield County Golf Club in 1895, but its roots go back to 1892 when the club's patriarch, Julian Curtiss, introduced the little-known game to his friends. Curtiss, an executive with A.G. Spalding & Bros., the sporting goods company, purchased $400 of golf equipment while on a business trip in London. His superiors were not happy with his speculation, however, and wrote it off as "Curtiss' folly."

Refusing to give up, Curtiss and two of his Greenwich neighbors laid out a five-hole course in their adjoining front yards and invited friends to have a go at the new game. It was an instant success, and the result was an informal golf club. In 1920, Curtiss became president of the Spalding company. By 1895, Curtiss's course had been expanded to nine holes and the Fairfield County GC was officially established.

One of the club's early members, Findlay Douglas, a native of St. Andrews, Scotland, won the U.S. Amateur in 1898 and was runner-up the next two years. The most influential benefactor in the early years was Edmund Converse, a banker and industrialist and first president of J.P. Morgan's U.S. Steel. With his backing, the course was expanded to 18 holes in 1908 and the club was renamed the Greenwich Country Club in 1909.

In 1911 the course was redesigned by Seth Raynor, then an apprentice to Charles Blair Macdonald. Glenna Collett (Vare), the leading American amateur of the 1920s and 1930s, was a summer resident of Greenwich and an honorary member of the club. She represented the GCC when she won the 1930 U.S. Women's Amateur, one of six times she won the title. The club was host to the 1920 Metropolitan Open, won by former U.S. Open champion Walter Hagen.

Dick Chapman, who grew up at the club and was the son of a former club champion, is the best known of GCC's amateur players. He won the U.S. Amateur at Winged Foot in 1940 and followed that with victories in the Canadian, British, French and Italian Amateur Championships. He was a member of the Walker Cup team three times, and won the Connecticut Amateur twice, including the 1936 event at his home club.

History of Indian Hill Country Club

The Indian Hill Country Club began life over 100 years and five names ago when a group of New Britain industrialists tired of the long horse-and-buggy ride to the CC of Farmington, the nearest course at the time.

The sportsmen located suitable land near the trolley line in the Maple Hill section of Newington, and on April 4, 1899, leased the property and incorporated the Maple Hill Golf Club. The 109-acre tract was purchased in 1912 and the club was reorganized as the New Britain Golf Club. The original nine holes were expanded at that time by six holes, and by playing some holes a second time from alternate tees, an 18-hole round could be enjoyed. It was not a satisfactory arrangement, however, and in 1917, the club was sold to a group from West Hartford, headed by Samuel Doty, which gave the club its third name, the Sequin Golf Club.

During the next 10 years, an additional 16 acres were acquired and an entirely new course was built. Another sale and another new name-- the Sequin Country Club-- occurred in 1929, just seven months before the stock market crashed and activity at the club waned accordingly. In 1932, a group headed by Alfred C. Fuller, president of the Fuller Brush Co., purchased the course and gave the club its final name-- the Indian Hill Country Club.

In 1969, the Town of Newington purchased the club and leased the facility to the members, a partnership that continues today. The course has been the site of both the CSGA Connecticut Amateur and Open. Dick Siderowf represented Indian Hill when he won back-to-back Connecticut Opens in 1958 and '59, and Ted Lencyck carried the club banner for his Connecticut Open win in 1954.

History of Innis Arden Golf Club

Ferris and Tod, the names of Innis Arden Golf Club's principal dining rooms, serve as reminders of the club's history, but there is little comparison between their contributions.

While J. Kennedy Tod can be considered the founder of the club, Jeffere Ferris lived 250 years before the first golf ball was struck on American soil. Still, if Ferris had not traded coats for land with the Asamuck Indians in 1640, an important 56 acres of the golf course might not have been available for the club to purchase 334 years later.

Golf began in the late 1890s when Tod invited his neighbors to play golf on a makeshift nine-hole course he had constructed on what is now called Greenwich point. The group was organized as the Innis Arden GC (meaning high meadow in Scottish Gaelic) in 1899. It was reorganized as the Sound Beach Golf and Country Club, and moved in 1908 to the Ferris property, which it leased for 66 years before purchasing it in 1974.

Renowned course designer A.J. Tillinghast remodeled the course in 1915. Additional land was acquired in 1925 and the course was expanded to 18 holes. In 1934, the name reverted to Innis Arden. The club's most accomplished golfer was clearly Dick Mayer, who was the U.S. Open Champion and PGA Player of the Year in 1957.

History of Litchfield Country Club

Golf was first played at the Litchfield Country Club on a six-hole course in 1896, though the club had been organized four years earlier for bowling, croquet and tennis. Golf became controversial within the club almost immediately when the golfing members wanted to expand the course while the majority of the members, who were more interested in tennis and social functions, refused to spend the money.

The dissidents split from the club the next year and formed the Bantam River Golf Club with its own nine-hole course. Thus began a social competition in the town with the Litchfield Club, known as the "West Side Club," vying for members with the Bantam River Golf Club, known as the "East Side Club." When membership in the Litchfield Club began to ebb, three new golf holes were added, but it didn't stem the exodus and in 1904, the club abandoned golf altogether.

The inter-club feuding stopped in 1916 when both the "West Side" and "East Side Clubs" dissolved and the members joined to form the Litchfield Country Club on a newly acquired tract of farmland, the site of the present course.

History of Shennecossett Golf Club

This picturesque public course on the shore of Long Island Sound in Groton owes its founding in 1898 to Thomas W. Avery, its expansion in 1914 to Morton F. Plant, and its preservation from housing developers in 1958 to Milton G. Slosberg.

Few courses, public or private, have had more significant benefactors than the Shennecossett Country Club. Avery, a descendent of a colonial family, constructed a four-hole course on a parcel of his farmland at Eastern Point in 1898. The course was expanded to nine holes about 1906, the same year Plant opened his 400-room Griswold Hotel on adjoining beachfront property. Plant spent several years, beginning in 1911, buying surrounding property, which allowed for the expansion to 18 holes in 1914. Plant was a wealthy man who spent $3 million to construct a summer home in Groton, raced luxury yachts and oversaw extensive railroad interests along the East Coast.

Several times the course was threatened by developers. In 1942, the federal government planned to construct "defense housing," but the plan was avoided by a public outcry. When housing development was threatened again in 1958, Slosberg, a New London businessman, bought the course and the Griswold Hotel for $450,000. He managed to save the course, but the hotel proved a difficult business venture and he sold it to Pfizer, the pharmaceutical firm, in 1968 and it was razed.

The Town of Groton bought the course the next year and has operated it as a municipal facility for 30 years. Scotsman Alex Smith, who won the U.S. Open in 1906 and 1910, was the club's first pro. Like most of the early pros, he also served as a clubmaker and groundkeeper. One of Smith's pupils was Glenna Collett Vare, winner of six U.S. Women's Championships and seven Griswold Trophies in the Shennecossett Invitation from 1920-35. Donald Ross, another native Scot, redesigned Shennecossett in 1926. Among the fine local players was Max Marston, who won the National Amateur in 1926, and captured seven Shennecossett championships.

Why Should You Obtain a CSGA/GHIN Handicap?

The Connecticut State Golf Association (CSGA) is a non-profit corporation that was formed in 1899.  The CSGA is the ONLY authorized golf association, approved by the United States Golf Association (USGA), in Connecticut.  The CSGA is under license by the USGA to conduct and maintain course ratings and to administer the USGA handicap index system.

If you want assurance that you are spending your money wisely, please know that a bona fide USGA Handicap Index is not something you can purchase on your own. You MUST be a member of a club that is licensed by the USGA or the State/Regional Golf Association.  

Any golf course or group of individuals in the state that wishes to form a club and be licensed to use the USGA handicap system, trademarks and to issue a handicap index must obtain a license to do so. Clubs must meet some basic requirements in order to be licensed to issue a USGA Handicap Index. The CSGA processes these applications and insures the club meets all USGA requirements.  There are three types of clubs within the USGA Handicap System.  See USGA Handicap Manual for description of a “golf club”.

Every club licensed to issue a USGA Handicap Index has the option to select any vendor they wish.  The question of why you should obtain a CSGA/GHIN Handicap may be answered by answering the following question.  Do you want to give back or take from the game of golf?

Giving Back. Members of all three types of CSGA clubs, through payment of dues, are contributing to the game by helping to fund several activities the CSGA is involved with.  CSGA member dues, which include the GHIN handicap, enable the CSGA to donate to the University of Connecticut Turfgrass Research and the Tri-States Turfgrass Research programs each year. Besides turfgrass research, the CSGA oversees the CSGA Scholarship Fund which has donated more than $2 million to deserving scholars employed at CSGA Member Clubs.

The CSGA/GHIN handicap entitles golfers to participate in CSGA tournaments and championships as well as regional and national championships sanctioned by the CSGA.  It is not uncommon for events, conducted at clubs throughout the state, not to accept a handicap index issued by a club that is not a CSGA/GHIN affiliated club.

The CSGA is also the founder and instrumental member of the Connecticut Golf Alliance (CGA).  The mission of the CGA is to promote the best interests of golf in the state, as well as protect, preserve, and grow the game.  Most recently the CGA has worked with Connecticut legislators to defeat proposed bills for sales tax on greens fees and costly stream flow regulations.

Taking From.  Other commercial handicap service companies are available to golf clubs and individual golfers.  These vendors are for profit companies that can perform the correct algorithm to calculate a handicap in accordance with USGA specifications.  These companies compete with the CSGA/GHIN for golfers throughout the state.  The golfers that utilize these services often do so without understanding that they receive a handicap from a company that gives nothing back to the game and in turn so do the golfers that use their services.

In Connecticut, almost 100% of the licensed clubs are CSGA Member Clubs. When you join a CSGA/GHIN Member Club, you can feel proud knowing that you have joined an organization committed to safeguarding the integrity of the game, promoting fair play, preserving the game’s traditions and enhancing the playing environment for all golfers.

History of Wallingford Country Club

Encouraged by Englishman Harley H. Hawkins, a group of sportsmen founded the Wallingford Golf Club in 1898 on a nine-hole course with two of the holes on the present golf course property. A one-story cold-shower clubhouse was opened in 1900, and in 1904, the name was changed to the Wallingford Country Club.

Early records were destroyed when the clubhouse basement was flooded in the 1950s, but Clarence E. Hale, the club champion in 1908, wrote a few personal remembrances of the early years which were printed in a 75th anniversary booklet. These edited excerpts give an unfiltered glimpse of country club life just after the turn of the century.

Hale wrote: "Like most open land in the outskirts of town, (the links) had been used as a pasture. It was very rough with hillocks, outcroppings of rocks, cattle paths, brambles, and deep tough grass in the low spots. A small brook wandered from one end to the other, constituting not a normal water hazard, but rather a swampy, mucky tract. To reduce this land to a fairway, a horse-drawn mower was used. Relatively smooth spots were selected for greens, and on these a hand mower was used. The grass, just ordinary lawn grass, was about the height of that attacked by the man of the house on his Saturday off. The standard attire included the Norfolk belted jacket, and plus fours, short baggy knickerbockers, buckled just below the knee, with heavy woolen stockings often in gay designs. Such a costume was all right on the cold, windy, coastal links of Scotland, but obviously was so unsuited to a hot New England summer day that all but the plus fours were quickly discarded. The balls were of solid gutta-percha. When one was hit, it sounded like a pistol shot, and the shock to the arms and shoulders was essentially the same as hitting a stone of the same size, and the distance obtained was about the same. Each tee was equipped with a box of sand (thus, the tee box), and a pail of water used in making a small sand tee. The process was to splash water on the sand, take a pinch and get the ball mounted and away before the tee collapsed, as it often did the instant before the club head hit the ball."

By 1925, additional land had been purchased and the course expanded to 13 holes. An 18-hole course was achieved in 1937, but the layout was changed in 1947 when four replacement holes were constructed after members worked evenings to clear the land of rocks. The last alteration came in 1964 when three new holes were introduced and three others abandoned. Since 1925, every hole except the third and 18th has undergone reconstruction. Joel Smith was the club pro for 31 years, doubling as the greenkeeper in the first years after his arrival in 1928.

History of Wee Burn Country Club

According to his diary, John D. Crimmins was riding in his surrey one Sunday afternoon in 1893 when he spotted two men playing golf in a Noroton field where they had laid out two holes. One man was Augustus Floyd Delafield, who had been given a set of clubs by a friend in Scotland. The other was Dr. William French, who had friends in the original "apple tree gang" of the St. Andrews Club in Yonkers, NY.

It would be four years before the Wee Burn Country Club was formally established in Crimmins' office, but the Sunday pastime was probably the beginning of the organization. By 1895, a small band of golfers played on a crude course, wearing red jackets to symbolize membership in the group.

Crimmins, though not an avid golfer himself, called a meeting at his house in April of 1896 to discuss the organization of a golf club. No action was taken other than to hire George Strath, who had been the professional at Troon and possibly the first Scottish pro to emigrate to the United States. With Strath to teach the game and maintain the ground, Wee Burn was surely in existence in 1896, a year before its official founding.

Forty-eight acres of farmland was leased on which Strath laid out a six-hole course, one of which was fenced in for the protection of the landowner's cattle. Three additional holes were added that winter. Wee Burn had two outstanding players at the turn of the century. Genevieve Hecker won the National Women's Amateur Championship in 1901 and 1902. And Charles H. Seely won three successive Connecticut Amateur Championships in 1901, '02 and '03.

With no room to expand, the club purchased a 230-acre plot bordering the Ox Ridge Hunt Club in 1923 and engaged Devereux Emmet to design an 18-hole course. Fittingly, Stony Brook (the wee burn) meandered through the new property just as it had the former. The course opened in July of 1925 with a best-ball exhibition featuring Gene Sarazen.

Wee Burn's most accomplished golfers have been its club professionals. John Golden was the first. He won four straight Connecticut Opens from 1932-35, and was a semifinalist in the National PGA three times, defeating Gene Sarazen in the 1926 tournament. Leo Mallory succeeded Golden both as the Wee Burn pro and the state Open titlist. His victories in 1936 and '37 gave the club six consecutive crowns. Next came a string of extraordinary assistant pros. Harry Cooper, who won 30 events on the PGA tour and was runner-up in the 1936 U.S. Open, was an assistant at Wee Burn in 1939, just long enough to win the club's seventh Connecticut Open. Jimmy Demaret spent the summer of 1941 at Wee Burn, the year after winning the first of his three Masters titles. He, too, won the state Open, the eighth Wee Burn winner in the first 11 years of the event. Demaret won 28 titles on tour. Bob Goalby spent the summer of 1956 as an assistant at Wee Burn before a PGA career that included 11 tournament wins and the 1968 Masters crown. The two most recent head pros, Mike Krak and Roy Pace also spent time on the pro tour. Pace won two Connecticut Opens as an assistant at Wee Burn in 1966 and '67, and won the PGA Tour's Magnolia Classic in 1972 before returning to Wee Burn in 1976.

The club has staged three U.S. Women's Amateur Championships, won by Betty Jameson in 1939, Ann Quast in 1958 and Martha Wilkinson in 1970.

History of New Haven Country Club

A group headed by Yale law Professor Theodore S. Woolsey, founded the New Haven Country Club on an expanse of farmland beside Lake Whitney in Hamden in 1898. Woolsey and his associates sought a place to build a new course after eager Yale students had crowded them off the nine-hole New Haven Golf Club, which many of them had helped create three years earlier within walking distance of the Yale campus.

That course had been laid out by Robert D. Pryde, a Scottish immigrant who was working as a cabinet maker when Woolsey discovered him. Pryde had a hand in creating the New Haven Country Club course, too, and briefly served as the club professional. To reach the new course, the early members took a 10-minute trolley ride to Hamden, and then crossed the lake on a footbridge. Like many of the rudimentary turn-of-the-century courses, the layout was later redesigned by an established architect. In 1921 the club assigned that task to two-time British Open Champion and pioneering course designer Willie Park Jr.

Among its great players are Charlie Clare, who won the Connecticut Amateur three times and the New England Amateur once in the 1930s, and William Hadden III, a two-time CSGA Player of the Year, and a Northeast Amateur titlist. New Haven has staged many Connecticut Amateur Open Championships and is the home of the annual Julius Boros Challenge Cup contested by Connecticut pros and amateurs.

How Do I Get a Handicap?

It's really simple, just sign up through a Member Club!

USGA Handicap Indexes are issued to individuals only through recognized golf clubs. The USGA Handicap System requires that a golfer be part of a club so that “peer review” is part of the handicap process. Every CSGA Member Club is licensed to issue handicap indexes!

If you belong to a private club you should contact the handicap chairperson to be added to the CSGA/GHIN handicap system.

For the many golfers that do not belong to a private club you can still receive a CSGA/GHIN handicap from many CSGA member clubs. Several public facilities offer a "handicap only" service which will allow total access to a CSGA/GHIN handicap.

I don't really play in tournaments, why do I need an official CSGA/GHIN handicap?

The broad appeal of golf is the unique and equitable handicapping system.  The purpose of the USGA Handicap System is to make the game more enjoyable for golfers of all abilities.  So whether you participate in tournaments or not, an official CSGA/GHIN handicap will allow you to see the improvements in your ability or compete more equitably with your playing partners.

Once you've joined a golf club and posted five adjusted gross scores you will be issued a CSGA/GHIN handicap once a revision date passes.  To view a directory of courses offering handicap indexes just select the Club Directory link below and search for a public facility in your area.

Government Relations

The CSGA, as an association of member clubs, has a responsibility to monitor proposed legislation on a national and state level that could have positive or negative effects on our members and the golfers they serve. To support that responsibility the Association formed a Government Relations Committee to develop strategies and tactics to influence good legislation.

In 2010 the CSGA coordinated and published an Economic Impact Study on the golf industry in Connecticut which will serve as a guide in helping the Government Relations Committee to develop these strategies and tactics.

Also in 2010, the CSGA worked with another Conn. Golf Alliance member, the Golf Course Superintendents Association, to stop proposed regulations from the Department of Environmental Protection regarding stream flow.

In previous years, the CSGA, along with other members of the Conn. Golf Alliance, was instrumental in influencing legislators to drop a proposed exemption from sales taxes for golf related activities not currently taxed.

The CSGA was also responsible for communicating new legislation that required the implementation of Automatic Electronic Defibrillators at all public facilities.

This service is one of many included in the annual dues our member clubs pay on behalf of their members.

2010 Senior Player of the Year

USGA Men’s State Team Championship

The USGA Men’s State Team Championship, as well as the Women’s State Team Championship, grew out of the USGA's Centennial celebration in 1995. It was believed that a new championship, one in which each state could be represented by non-college, amateur golfers, was a good way to cap the USGA’s year-long birthday celebration. In enthusiasm and fine golf, the State Team Championship proved such a success that it has been instituted to return every two years.

The top three players as of August 1, 2012 will be awarded the opportunity to represent the state of Connecticut in this biennial event.  The format for the championship is three rounds of stroke play with the best two individual rounds per day couting towards the team score.

Although teams from Connecticut have not won this event there have certainly been several highlights.  Most notably was Bill Hermanson's, Black Hall Club, hole-in-one in the third round of the 2007 USGA Men's State Team at Carlton Woods Golf Club in The Woodlands, Texas.

The 10th USGA Men's State Team Championship will be held on September 19-21, 2012 at Galloway National Golf Club in Galloway, NJ. State associations are given the option to choose their teams by any method. In Connecticut, the team is chosen by virtue of a points system based on the Dick Tettelbach Player of the Year Points.  The points system is as follows;

Dick Tettelbach POY Points Awarded from 8/2/2010 - 8/1/2011 are valued at 50%
Dick Tettelbach POY Points Awarded from 8/2/2011 - 8/1/2012 are valued at 100%


One Day Tournaments

The CSGA is nationally recognized for running first rate Championship events. However, the elite players account for a very small percentage of our nearly 40,000 members.  CSGA One Day tournaments are a great opportunity for the majority of CSGA/GHIN handicap holders to experience a professionally administered state-wide event.

These popular events are conducted at some of the premier public golf courses in the state.  One Day Tournaments allow golfers of all ages and abilities to participate in a casual and fun atmosphere with incredible prizes at an affordable price. All events are open to any golfer who holds an active CSGA/GHIN handicap index from a CSGA member club.

All One Day Tournaments are flighted by age. Tettelbach flight consists of golfers age 54 and below.  Siderowf flight consists of golfers age 55 and above.  All competitors will compete in both the gross and net divisions; however, no competitor can win more than one prize per event.  The top five finishers, including ties, in each division earn an inviation to the season ending One Day Championship held at Shennecossett Golf Club in Groton.

The $70 entry fee for each One Day tournament include:

- Green fees
- Golf cart
- Prizes (given to the top four finishers in each division)
- The top two finishers, including ties, in each gross division will also receive Tettelbach or Siderowf Player of the Year points.

Biannually, the CSGA hosts a Rules of Golf seminar for any interested participant.  This two day event covers all aspects of the Rules and culminates with a fifty question exam to test the Rules knowledge of the participants.  Several former attendees of these classes have officiated at their local clubs, CSGA Championships, and even USGA National Championships.

USGA qualified CSGA staff members and volunteers are also available to any Member Club that wishes to host a Rules of Golf seminar. Interested members should contact the CSGA Club Representative at their club for further details.

Course Rating Information

CSGA Course Rating Teams rate 25 to 30 courses per year. 

The CSGA Member Clubs are rated once every ten years, earlier if the course has undergone significant renovations. Per USGA guidelines, new courses are rated once every three years for nine years until mature. 

The men’s course rating teams are broken into two regions (North and South) with both regions employing a course rating captain.  With assistance from the CSGA, the Connecticut Women’s Golf Association (CWGA) and the Southern New England Women’s Golf Association (SNEWGA) conduct ratings from all women’s tees.

When a golf course is rated, the rating team, using a prescribed USGA methodology, evaluates the overall difficulty of the golf course by taking into account the 10 obstacles and effective length corrections on every hole. They give a numerical evaluation of all obstacles on each hole – topography, fairway, green target, recovery and rough, bunkers, out of bounds, water, trees, green surface, and psychology – and use those numbers to calculate a rating.

Equitable Stroke Control Chart

Equitable stroke control (ESC) is a downward adjustment of an individual hole score based on handicap index to ensure that one bad hole does not have a disproportionate effect on a golfers handicap.  This procedure is used for handicap score posting and is not to be used in any type of competition.

The following table (ESC Chart) shows the adjustment to be made for golfers of different abilities.

18-Hole Course Handicap                  Maximum Score to be Posted

9 or less                                                                   Double Bogey

Others known to the CSGA are Gerard Courville, 1977, Brooklawn CC, University of Maryland and a frequent competitor at the state and national level;  Michael Perrault, 1982, CC of Farmington, Bentley College and a sales representative in CT for Callaway Golf;  David Tiedemann, 1985, The Farms, UCONN and head golf professional at Shelter Harbor Golf Club; David Renzulli, 1986, Patterson Club, University of Richmond and head golf professional at CC of Fairfield; Patrick Boucher, 1997, Norwich GC, CCSU and golf professional at Lake of Isles,  and Brent Paladino, Timberlin GC, the College of William and Mary and golf professional at New Haven CC.

CSGA Pace of Play Policy

The CSGA Pace of Play policy has been implemented to make contestants aware of their position on the golf course.  The objective of this policy is to eliminate groups playing five-hour rounds.  Players understanding the policy will become aware of their groups position on the course and over time begin to fix their own problems without an official putting the group on the clock.

TIME OF STARTING

The CSGA directs that players should report to the starter  five minutes prior to their starting time to receive competition and course information.  Rule 6-3a provides: “The player must start at the time established by the Committee.”  The penalty for breach of Rule 6-3a is disqualification.  However, as a condition of the competition, the Committee has adopted the Note to Rule 6-3a, which states: “ If the player arrives at his starting point ready to play within five minutes after his starting time, in the absence of circumstances which warrant waiving the penalty of disqualification as provided in Rule 33-7, the penalty of failure to start on time is loss of the first hole in match play or two strokes in stroke play.  Penalty for lateness beyond five minutes is disqualification.”

ALLOTTED TIME

 Allotted time is the amount of time a group has to complete a measured number of holes.  All CSGA scorecards will have the pace of play identified on them. The time to complete 18 holes will be approximately 4 hours & 24 minutes for threesomes, but will vary for each course and group size.  The Official In Charge (OIC)  for each event will be responsible for determining and communicating any need for change in the basic pace of play schedule.

OUT OF POSITION

FIRST GROUP ONLY: If you are behind your allotted time at the completion of any hole.

ALL OTHER GROUPS: Subsequent groups will not be considered “out of position” if any previous group has caused the field to fall behind their allotted time.  Any subsequent groups must remain within 14 minutes of the group in front of them.  This is measured by your having the flagstick in the hole within 14 minutes of the group in front of you.

TIMING

All CSGA officials will be given a spreadsheet with every pairing group’s expected time of completion for each hole.  In the event that an official notices a group out of position or behind time they will inform the roving rules official and/or OIC of that group’s status.  At this time the roving rules official and/or OIC will inform the group of their position and that the group needs to speed up their pace.  This group is also subject to be put on the clock without further notice.

In match play events players will be allotted 12.5 minutes per hole.

ON THE CLOCK

A group may be monitored or timed for compliance with this pace of play guideline if it is “out of position”, and “behind time”.  When a group is “on the clock” a player in the group is expected to play any stroke within 40 seconds.

The timing of a player’s stroke will begin when he has had a reasonable opportunity to reach his ball, it is his turn to play and he can play without interference or distraction.

Except on the putting green, if a player has reached his ball, it is his turn to play and there are no distractions, timing will begin after he has reasonable time to select his club.  Time spent walking backward or forward for determining yardages will count as part of the time taken for the next stroke.

On the putting green, timing will begin after a player has been allowed a reasonable amount of time to lift, clean and replace his ball, repair his ball mark and other ball marks on his line of putt and remove loose impediments on his line of putt.  Time spent looking at the line from beyond the hole and/or behind the ball will count as part of the time taken for the next stroke.

NOTE:  A player is permitted 40 seconds to play a stroke.  An extra 10 seconds (for a total of 50 seconds) will be allowed for:

a) The first player to play a stroke on a par-3 hole.

b) The first player to play a second stroke on a par-4 or par-5 hole.

c) The first player to play a third stroke on a par-5 hole.

d) The first player to play a stroke around the putting green.

e) The first player to play a stroke on the putting green.

PENALTIES

Once a group has received a red card and/or been put on the clock, the following policy will go into effect for each player: 

1st Bad Time - Warning from the official

2nd Bad Time - 1 Stroke Penalty

3rd Bad Time - 2 Additional Strokes Penalty

4th Bad Time - Disqualification

Players are responsible for knowing their position on the golf course relative to their allotted time as well as the groups around them.  Players should monitor and speak to individuals causing slow play.  Players may ask for the group to be monitored without identifying an individual causing slow play.

Special Requests-Motorized Carts

The CSGA will evaluate on a case-by-case basis any request to use a motorized cart due to a claimed disability in CSGA championships or qualifying rounds which prohibit use of motorized carts.  In order for the CSGA to evaluate properly such requests, it is necessary to submit medical documentation setting forth the exact nature of the disability and how that disability prevents such player from walking during a stipulated round.  In addition, players must submit information sufficient to enable the CSGA to determine that providing a cart would not provide a player with an advantage over other players.  Such information must be provided at least 90 days prior to the entry closing date.

Visit www.usga.org/Special requests for a sample questionnaire used by the USGA for such a request.

Tournament Information

Information concerning pairings, starting times, etc., will be e-mailed prior to the event.  Starting times and pairings will also be posted on www.csgalinks.org as soon as they are available.   Anyone without access to the internet may request to have the tournament information sent by US mail.

Withdrawal/Refund Policy

Returned Checks/Credit Cards

Distance-Measuring Devices:

For all play in CSGA events a player may obtain distance information using a device that measures distance only.  If, during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g., gradient, wind speed, temperature, etc.), the player is in breach of Rule 14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether any such additional function  is actually used.

These devices have not been approved for use in USGA qualifying events conducted by the CSGA.

Cell Phones

The CSGA does not allow the use of cell phones for any purpose, except for emergencies, during a stipulated round. Use of a cell phone as a distance measuring device will be cause for disqualification.

Breaking Ties

The CSGA will follow guidelines published in Rule 33-6 and Appendix 1 of the Rules of Golf, and will include the specific method to be used for each event in the letter to contestants.

Awarding Prizes

In situations where contestant(s) finish within the prizes awarded for both gross and net scores the Committee will determine one prize to be awarded the contestant(s).  In no case shall more than one prize be awarded to a single contestant.

Team Selection

Invitation to represent the CSGA on the Julius Boros Challenge Cup team, the Tri-State team, and the USGA State team will be the responsibility of the Competitions Committee.  Criteria that will be considered will be Player of the Year points, Senior Player of the Year points, past performance in team events, and individual compliance with the CSGA Code of Conduct Policy on and off the course.  Accumulation of points alone will not guarantee selection.

Player of the Year Points

To be eligible for Tettelbach Player of the Year or Siderowf Senior Player of the Year a competitor must have competed in at least one of the CSGA major championships defined as the Palmer Cup,  Amateur Championship, Junior Amateur Championship, Senior Amateur Championship, Mid-Amateur Championship, Senior Match Play Championship, Open Championship, and Public Links Championship.  Any violation of the CSGA Code of Conduct policy could result in disqualification from consideration for Player of the Year or Senior Player of the Year.
