Dear Members & Guests,
On behalf of the Tournament Committee and the staff at The Hills Country Club, I would like to thank each and every one of you for playing in this year’s “Jaws Classic” Member/Guest. The competition was fierce, the food was great, and the golf courses were in unbelievable condition (hats off to Tyler and Derek and their crews). A very special thank you to Peter Thompson for all his help and hard work in putting this event together. Without his support, the cost of this event would almost double for everyone.
All Day monies and Flight monies were passed out at the awards dinner – If you were unable to attend and you won money, you may pick it up at Live Oak beginning Monday morning. Additionally, all shop credit winnings will be posted Monday.
Congratulations to our 2023 “Jaws Classic”

Men's Member-Guest
Invitation & Official Information Sheet
On behalf of your Classic Clubs and the Tournament Committee, I would like to invite you to play in the 2023 Jaws Classic Men’s Member-Guest on May 18-20. The cost for this year’s tournament is $700 per team. Please visit the Club website (ccc-2023jawsclassicmensmemberguest.golfgenius.com). Use GGID # YKDRWZ to log in. If your name does not appear in the drop-down menu, contact the Golf Shop at 512-261-7173 and we will add it. You will not be able to login with your email and password to register. Please note that sign-ups close on May 1, 2023.
The field will be limited to sixty, two-player teams, and the format will be match play. Teams will be divided into ten flights of six teams (by handicap) and every team will play five nine-hole matches against teams within their respective flight. Matches will be better ball of two – played at 90% as of May 9, 2023, USGA handicaps. Play will be from both blue & white tees (age plus handicap must equal 80 or more). There will be a 10-stroke maximum difference between partners. If the difference between the two players is more than 10 strokes, the higher handicapped player will be adjusted down to 10 strokes above his partner. Guests must have a verifiable handicap.
Our match play format will provide each member and their guest an opportunity to make many different acquaintances, as well as create an event that will be both fun and competitive. The tournament will conclude with all flight winners, and two wild card teams, competing in the exciting alternate-shot Shoot-Out to determine an overall champion. You will enjoy three fun-filled days of golf, great food, and camaraderie for your entry fee. All male Classic and Signature golf members are eligible to play. Your guest may not be a Classic or Signature golf member. The tournament is flighted by handicap, so everyone has an equal opportunity to compete. This is one of the premier events at your club…don’t miss it!
Last year’s event raised almost three thousand dollars for Colon Cancer research. If your business is interested in sponsoring our tournament, please contact Peter Thompson at Prthompson0728@live.com for more information on how you can contribute to the success of the event and help our charity.
