1523.0. "Portsmouth CC in NH" by WALTA::LENEHAN (par-taking in par making) Mon May 11 1992 11:51

    
    Hi Everyone,
    
    	I will be playing in a Pro-Am event at Portsmouth CC in New
    Hampshire. Does anyone have any information about the course?
    
    
    	Thanks,

    Walta,
    
       Portsmouth is on Great Bay, very pretty. But if the weather
    is bad....
    
       The course is well maintained, greens are fast. Nothing real
    tricky about the course. It's just a great course. I am sure
    that you'll enjoy the Pro-Am. 
    
       There is a practice area as you drive in. Men's on the left,
    women's on the right. 
    
    directions:  
    
    from I-95 (1)  take NH 101 West (exit 3) 
    	      (2)  take first right ( note that there will be a golf 
    		course directly in front of you as you turn, as the
    		road bends left the course will be on your right.
    		This is "NOT" Portsmouth country club. This is the
    		Pease Air Force Base course. Yes, I know Pease is
    		closed, but I don't know the name of the course now.)
    	       (3)  follow the road to the Portsmouth Country Club
    		The club will be on your right, if you come to a 	
      		street light you have driven past the club.

    Hi Everyone,
    
    	Portsmouth CC was really nice. Its pretty wide open and required
    some BIG tee shots to get home in regulation. The last hole played 472
    into the wind  par 4 ! 
    
    	It was an especially fun day because WE WON the Pro Am !  No 
    thanks to my play... the B and C players, Kenny and Dom birdied 4 stroke
    holes between them . Our team ended up 6 under gross, 14 under net. Which 
    was low enough to win both categories, but they only pay one. So we got 
    the low gross money.
    
    	I felt bad I didn't help more. The one hole I made birdie on, 
    Kenny and Dom birdied also ! Of course when my son is old enough 
    to read, and I show him the Herald's Sport section and he sees
    Daddy's name... I might forget to mention the insignificance of my
    performance :) .
    
    sometimes it's not how you play, but who you play with

Congratulations!

Was this a MGA Pro Am? If so why would it be in N.H.?
