If the success of the first Floyd Cup Challenge is any indication, next yearâs event at Old Palm Golf Club will be one of the most anticipated golf outings ever. The 2012 Floyd Cup Challenge was held from January 22 through January 24 and instantly sold out, drawing 19 foursomes from around the country. Each foursome was made up of a club pro and three members from his club, who came to play two competitive rounds on our Raymond Floyd-designed golf course, practice at our spectacular Golf Studio, and enjoy Old Palmâs unparalleled amenities âAll of the players were blown away by the condition of the course, our facilities, the food, and the hospitality throughout the event,â says Bud Taylor, Old Palmâs Director of Golf. âRaymond Floyd was here representing the club and that really made an impression.â Besides the two rounds of golf, the…

Many of us overlook the importance of correct posture in our haste to hit the golf ball.  But good posture in an athletic position is the starting point with which you swing the club Without a proper set-up, you canât maximize your effort To ensure that your posture is correct it is important to know where your feet, knees, arms and spine should be in relation to one another. This picture shows that proper posture is achieved when a vertical line can be formed from the top of your spine, running inside of the elbows, across the front of your knees and through the balls of your feet.

As one of the newest model homes in the Grand Estates neighborhood in Old Palm Golf Club, the Ashford makes quite a statement. Built by Hasey Construction, the magnificent, 6,394-square-foot estate home boasts five bedrooms, six full baths, two half baths, a club room, and a loft thatâs accessible by stairs or elevator.

It started with Old Palmâs sales team, who arranged for a couple from the Northeast to lease a home here for the season Rather than fly in with several months worth of luggage, for convenience the couple shipped their clothes to the sales office.

We invited the couple to that nightâs New Yearâs Eve celebration at the Club, and the staff there made sure they were warmly welcomed. Members were told that…
