Last week I mentioned that the week was going to be a "Chamber of Commerce-esque" postcard weather week. Well I underestimated how outstanding the weather would be last week, and today it looks like it continues. Good news for golfers.

Last week’s weather is just what the doctor ordered for the golf course. The fairways are gaining in strength everyday. The applications that we have been putting down have been working and the growth is noticeable each day. The greens continue to be some of the best in the desert. Scott Werline and his Staff continue to give them tender loving care. Some mechanical improvements on the equipment have also boosted the speed and roll of the greens. No excuses not to go low at Trilogy Golf Club!

Head Golf Professional Nick Mitchell continues to offer some great savings in the Golf Shop. Purchase any two like items and get the third free. I suggest stopping by the golf shop and getting the best products the golf industry has to offer at prices that will leave you money left over for dinner!

We continue to be busy this week. The Trilogy Men’s Club will be hosting their 1st Men’s Invitational. They are slated to have 30 teams. Contact Rick Emerton in the golf shop if you are interested in playing. There are still a few slots for times to be added to the event. We have some great specials for Thursday and Friday. You can either check them out on our website or call the golf shop. The specials include a $119.00 Early Bird Special breakfast, golf balls and golf). Our "after 11am" special Monday thru Thursday is $99. Book now before the times are taken up!

Thursday Night’s South of the Border Night was a huge success. We sold out! Della, Roy and their staff did an outstanding job. The music was an added bonus to a great night. Friday and Saturday nights continue to increase in popularity. Roy and his staff are offering some of the finest meals around. On the horizon we have the Pasta Night on January 29th. Reservations will be limited to 60 people. Reserve your table now before we sell out. February 5th will be our Fat Tuesday Dinner - a flavor of New Orleans like you have never tasted before! This evening will likely sell out, so please call early to book your reservation.

This year we are adding a great number of photos of the golf course from various sources. You will see some exciting changes to the pictures in our website.

Currently, we have a video tour of the facility Produced by Ron Hyde Productions (view it here). Email it to your friends who are thinking of coming to the desert. Ron did a great job getting the flavor of our facility. To see more of Ron’s Work you can go to www.ronhyde.net.

We will be adding to this great video production with additional pictures from GolfShotsUnlimited.com and Jeffery Byron, and Chris Miller. They just finished doing aerial photos from the golf course a couple of weeks ago. What a great addition to your living room - a picture of your house and the golf course shot from the sky. We will be selling the framed pictures and also an album of the clubhouse, all 18 holes and a picture of the whole project. These shots are professionally done and will be a piece of artwork that you will treasure for a lifetime.

Jeffery Byron, a local photographer, will have yet more photos from which you can select. We will have a website set up in a couple months where you can view his photos of Trilogy Golf Club and purchase them online.

On the Anthony Kim watch, Anthony had a great showing over the weekend at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic. Saturday found Anthony in the lead of a tour event for the first time after 63 holes. He had 10 putts in 9 holes at La Quinta Country Club over his first nine holes. A cold putter on the final nine holes cost Anthony a realistic chance of winning his first event. Sunday found Anthony tied for second, 4 shots out of the lead behind Justin Leonard. Again a bulky putter was Anthony’s downfall. It was not that he putted poorly, he just had too many of the putts just skim the hole. A strong finish with 3 birdies in the final 4 holes helped Anthony secure a tie for 3rd place. Anthony will move his game down to San Diego and challenge Tiger and Phil for the first time this year. Having watched Anthony 3 of the 5 days of the Hope, I can honestly say that there are very few players on the PGA Tour who have a better combination of aggressiveness and ball striking abilities than Anthony at age 22. This week gave us more of an indication of how well Anthony can play when he is in contention. Look to see many great things out of him over the next couple of weeks.

Well the Super Bowl is set, Patriots and the Giants. That is why they play the game.
When the Patriots signed Randy Moss they were basically inked into the Super Bowl. They have lived up to everyone’s expectations and beyond. The Giants, on the other hand - who would have thought? First time in Super Bowl History that two brothers played in back to back Super Bowls as quarterback! The Manning Family has much to rejoice in again this year.

Until next week, keep rolling the rock!
