A Battle Against the Elements

Today at Hunting Hawk Golf Club, the Richmond Tour faced a true early-season test. Cold temperatures and a steady, howling wind made the course play longer than expected and demanded patience, discipline, and solid ball striking from every player in the field.

Even with the difficult conditions, Hunting Hawk was in fantastic shape. Seeing bright green fairways in March after the winter we had was something special, and the facility once again showed why we love having this venue on the schedule.

The staff was welcoming, professional, and outstanding to work with as always. We are grateful they continue to allow us to compete at such a great property.
