9 frankly golf As you know, putting is 45% of your score. At the Frankly Golf Putting Academy, we want to help you improve this part of your game. Here are three easy ways you can shave strokes off your game. Make sure your putter is properly fitted Most of the putters we use are hand me downs from a relative or bought out of a store and have not been properly fitted for the golfer; as a result, we are invariably using putters that are too long for us and therefore, we need to compensate within our stroke. Here at the Frankly Golf Putting Academy, we make sure that your putter is properly fitted so you can perform to the best of your ability. Take advantage of putter technology Many of us are using blade style putter technology, when in fact, we would benefit from more of a mallet style putter, which helps forgive our mistakes. So make it easier on the green by testing out one of our Frankly Frog putters, right here at the Putting Academy, which will help stabilize your stroke and provide a larger forgiveness zone for your putts. Take a putting lesson It s time to join the many golfers of varying skill levels that have taken putting lessons from us here at the Frankly Golf Putting Academy. We will help you improve your putting quickly and easily. Unlike the full swing, with putting you can see big improvements in a very short period of time, as well as develop an understanding of how your stroke should move. To book an appointment, please call or just call in! BOOK A PUTTING LESSON AT THE PAD To book a putting lesson at the PAD, call Individual and Group lessons are available. franklygolf.com/golfequipmentqaarchive.aspx or stop by the Putting PAD on your next visit to Reunion Resort! gatherings 9

She is glad you are part of her day. As one Member wrote on one of the many ballots, No matter what your request, she will try to do her best. Loyalty to the Members and Reunion is only one of Marla s good qualities. Making Members feel no request is too big is what makes her extra special. Marla received multiple MERP recognitions ballots, not only in December, but also throughout At the January Member Reception, Marla received a Reunion gift card and special name tag that symbolizes her as a Member Employee Recognition Program recipient. She will be considered along with other MERP recipients for the annual award which is a two-night stay in any one of the three Florida Salamander Resorts.

FIRST PLACE JAKE ETHERTON GOLF SHOP A young man who always has a smile for everyone coming into the Golf Shop or encounters him throughout Reunion. He finds prompt remedies for Member s needs and wishes. Questions are always answered with respect and a positive attitude. One Member commented: In years past, the assistant golf pros were periodically sent out (on the clock) to play with us on Member days. Jake said he would inquire about it. The next Friday Jake came in on his day off and played in our TGIF event. No pay, just did it! Jake not only received positive MERP comments during the month he won, but continued to receive them throughout the year. As one Member commented, His ability to interact with all is a great gift. Another comment: Jake deserves an A+. CONGRATULATIONS JAKE! YOU ARE THE 2014 ANNUAL MERP AWARD, FIRST PLACE WINNER!

This kind of extra attention and care makes being a Member of Reunion a true pleasure. No matter if you are pulling up to the front door to valet park your car or just walking into the Grande lobby, Luis makes you feel good to be a Member of Reunion. CONGRATULATIONS LUIS!

23 Inside THE LINES Patterns in the Game of Tennis The whole game of tennis is made up of patterns and patterns that are broken. Singles is a game of distinct pattern of waiting for the first weak ball to jump on top of. Doubles is more of a game of cross-court pattern, then attacking the net to try and finish the point off. We are going to discuss both types of play, singles and doubles with patterns. We all know that there are higher percentage shots when playing either singles or doubles, but what you might not know is when the best time is to change them. The world of singles is played predominately by matching the shot that your opponent hit to you. Be it the height, spin, or direction, these all are going to determine what pattern you should keep. By keeping the pattern, you are giving yourself the best possibility of making your next shot with the greatest ease. There is a time, though, when you should break that pattern; that comes when your opponent hits a short shot, giving you the ability to jump on the ball and go for the down-the-line winner. In the world of doubles, it is mostly played with a long rally of cross court shots with a net player finally putting an end to the point with a volley. Again, there are times to change this pattern; when your opponents net man plays too much to the middle, and also when you feel that you have the ability to surprise them with the change. In all of tennis there are patterns, those patterns are there to help with difficult times. When changing these patterns, the score should be in your favor and you should feel confident doing the shot; if not, don t commit. I hope these facts help you conquer some of your difficult situations on the tennis court gatherings 23
