Range Closure
Please be aware, that the Driving range will not be open on Thursday AM between the hours of 7am – 12:30pm. There will be some heavy equipment out that morning conducting some Geo-Technical soil surveys. The property that is beyond our current driving range could potentially be sold, and if this is the case, Lookout Point Country Club will require some barrier netting to enclose our driving range. These results from these surveys will give us the proper details needed to move forward with any negotiations.
In order to minimize the impact of the range closure we have moved our regular grounds maintenance to Thursday morning. As a result, we will be closing the driving range early (approximately 5:00 pm) during the evening of Wednesday, May 22nd for a clean pick of the range.
Even More Member Accomplishments

Men’s Match Play
Match Play is one of the oldest formats of competitive golf. Golfers can employ a slightly different strategy during a match play event since the scoring is different. A Match Play game is played with the goal of winning more individual holes than the opposing player or team.
Registration is now open for the season long Men’s Singles (Gross), Singles (Net) & Doubles (Net) match play events. Qualification for these events takes place during the month of June with registration ending on June 24th. The top 16 qualifying individual/team scores will be seeded and advance to the Round of 16 matches which will take place during July. Players/Teams will arrange matches between themselves during the round windows. All the information regarding the qualification process, tees in play and costs are available on the registration pages in the member central. In addition to these season long match play events , we also have our Senior Singles (Net) Match Play Championship which is now available for registration. Both qualification as well as the Match Play rounds will be played on selected days with tee-times reserved for our competitors in advance. We will be recognizing our Senior Match Play Champion on Sunday, July 21st.
