Hello Desert Mashie Family,
DESERT MASHIE NEWS
“5 Iron”
www.desertmashie.org
Well, August and September have come and gone, Summer has come and gone, and
so on, and so on, and we have only 83 days remaining in 2012. My how time flies
when we’re having fun.
Next Friday we will be starting on our weekend trip to Henderson, NV. Our golfers
will be playing in Valley View Golf Club’s Annual Tournament, and the non-golfers will
be going along for support, and a little R & R, shopping, gaming, etc., etc. Several of
us will be making the trip via bus, and I understand that some additional members
will be driving and some are going by air. So, the tournament will be on October 13 h
& Oct. 14 th . Valley View makes such an outstanding showing at our tournaments, so
I am happy that we will make a good showing at Valley View’s Annual Tournament.”
There are still a few seats still available on the
bus, so if there is anyone else out there who would like to join us for breakfast
sandwiches while making the trip with us, please let Norma James
(james5297@cox.net), 480-940-2357, know.
Desert Mashie’s October tournament was held on Sunday, Oct. 7, at Willow Creek.
Please put on your calendar the “Turkey Shoot” tournament which will be held at The
Duke, in Maricopa, on Saturday, November 17, at 7:30 a.m. Please go to the
Desert Mashie website (www.desertmashie.org), and sign up for this tournament.
You can use your credit or debit card to pay for the tournament while you’re in the
website, although it is not mandatory to pay at this time. You can pay by cash to the
Desert Mashie representative at the tournament, or bring your check made payable to
DESERT MASHIE GOLF CLUB for payment for this tournament. Don’t forget, this
will be a good time to win your turkey for Thanksgiving. Can you believe that
Thanksgiving is next month – already!!???

Desert Mashie’s December tournament will be held on December 31 at Tuscany Falls Golf
Course. This will be our Annual New Year’s Tournament. Below is information on this
tournament.

New Year's Eve Golf Tournament
Limited availability - Sign up early to reserve your spot

Second

FREE to all Members. However, you
must sign up, which is available online
at
www.desertmashie.org

Our Desert Mashie Tournament Director, Pam Hill, has been working hard to ensure
that we are playing nice tracks, in addition to keeping the price within our affordable
range, so I ask that we all keep in mind that Pam is only as good as the members
who come out and support her. Therefore, I ask that we all go to
www.desertmashie.org and review our remaining tournament scheduled for this year,
and sign up on line. Remember, great participation is necessary to enable Pam to
negotiate great rates.
Don’t forget to mark your calendars for our Desert Mashie Annual next year which will
be held on Friday, April 5, and Saturday, April 6, 2013, at the Legacy Golf Resort, and
the Raven Golf Club. Both of these venues are located in Phoenix, and are within
close proximity to the following: Phoenix Airport -- 6.4 miles; Arizona Mills shopping
outlet & theater -- 3.5 miles; and Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino -- 10 miles. For
your planning purposes, more information is available on the Desert Mashie website
(www.desertmashie.org).
As indicated in the New Year’s Dinner/Dance flyer above, the cost is $50.00 for
Guests. Now, let’s think about that …. For $5.00 more ($55.00) total payment by
December 1, the guest could become a non-golfer Desert Mashie member for the
remainder of 2012 and full year 2013, and have free entry into the Dinner/Dance.
Our condolences and prayers go out to the Malcolm Boone family. Malcolm’s homegoing
service was held on Wednesday, Oct. 3.
I am looking forward to you joining my wife and me at the New Year’s Eve
Dinner/Dance!
Last but certainly not least, DON’T FORGET TO VOTE!
Leroy H. James
President

On September 7, approximately 20 Desert Mashie members, family
and friends traveled to Tucson to participate in Desert Trails Golf
Club’s Annual Tournament. The tournament was held at the OMNI
Resort. The accommodations were outstanding, and the golf course
was in great shape. Of course, it was the middle of Monsoon season,
so a severe thunderstorm rolled in Sunday morning, bringing with it
lightning and some rain, but we were able to get around the course in
good time. Below is a list of the winners in their respective category.

I am happy to announce that Naomi Bryson, our Desert Mashie WIG member, has
written a book entitled "My Seven Sisters From Other Mothers". I have finished
reading this book and highly recommend it. There are tips, strategies for personal
growth as well as techniques for coping and interacting in fun activities. There are
some surprising elements in the book too.
o The book can be purchased from Amazon.com or downloaded to your ereader.
o It will make a great gift especially at Christmas.
o It is always great to support our member's creativity and endeavors.
Golf Clinic: The golf clinic dates for the fall session are Saturday, October 20, 27,
November 3, and 10 with play of 9 holes of golf.
Personal Medical Record for Golf Bag: I discussed the need to be able to provide
medical information if you become ill on the golf course. I distributed a Medical
card that can be filled out to be placed in the golf bag that contain information
about medications taken, allergies, emergency contact number and doctor's name.
This is information we may not know personally about each other. JoJo stated she
has placed her I.C.E. (in case of emergency) information in a luggage bag tag
placed on her golf bag.
Renee Powell, LPGA, Owner of Clearview Golf Club: I shared an email invitation
received from Ms. Powell to bring a golf group to Clearview GC in Canton, Ohio.
After much discussion, it was decided to research the feasibility of a group visiting
Clearview in August 2013.
The Rally for the Cure Tournament was a successful tournament again this year. A
Thank You Letter and Certificate of Appreciation was received from Rally for the
Cure.
Mark your calendars for the 2013 North South Shootout which will be held in
Northern California October 6 -7, 2013.
SAVE THE DATE -- April 26 – 28, 2013: Sisters Across America, Inc., advise the
following: “We are taking our Annual Golf Invitational across America to the
beautiful Sycuan Golf & Tennis Resort, San Diego, CA”. Please contact Esther
Wilson with any questions (407) 482-6625.

ANDREW PROCTOR was the winner in the COLORADO JUNIOR OPEN -- July 7 & 8,
2012, for his age category.
The weather presented many challenges for the golfers, but on the 1 st day Andrew shot
76; and that was with the players being called off the course for about 1 hour 15 minutes
due to thunder, lightning and rain. Andrew finished the 1 st round with a 4-stroke lead. The
second day was much better weather to play in, and he shot a 73. So he took first place for
his group with a 10-stroke lead. Below are the top 4 for Andrew's group for both days.

The Western State Golf Association (WSGA) Alan Bennett Junior Golf
Championship was held in Phoenix July 31 – August : Below is note
from Harold Fields, Desert Mashie’s Director of Junior Golf, regarding
the tournament.
Junior Golf
“The Western States Golf Association’s Junior Golf Championships were held here
in the Phoenix, Arizona area July 31 – August 3, 2012. The event was a
resounding success! Junior golfers from clubs that represented Mile High, Los
Angeles, Valley View, Leisure Hour, The Honors, Inland Empire, and Desert
Mashie made up the field. 113 junior golfers competed in 6 age divisions each for
the boys and girls. There were 34 girls and 79 boys.
The success of the tournament was due in part to the outstanding support that
was provided by the volunteer’s. Your support was the main cog in the wheel that
resulted in the success that was realized. You all worked tirelessly and
cooperatively together. The teamwork displayed was the type of effort that the
Mashie’s and their supporters routinely give to ensure the success of any endeavor
undertaken. You handled each bump in the road with calm and determination and
smoothed out each one that was encountered. I cannot begin to express my pride
and gratitude for you outstanding support to this project. We are truly blessed as
an organization to have members with the drive and character to do things the
right way. Thank you ALL from the bottom of my heart for your help in making
the tournament a success.
Thanks are also appropriate to the juniors and chaperons for their outstanding
behavior during the event. There were no incidents of misbehavior. The hotel
routinely hosts youth events from many different sports. They praised the group
as the “best display of behavior” they have ever experienced.
Sincerely,
Harold Fields”
I volunteered at this event, and I can attest to the outstanding behavior that Harold
mentioned above. Also, I heard the hotel coordinator for this event commenting to another
hotel employee that our group displayed the best behavior of any group they had ever hosted.
What a wonderful experience and a beautiful sight to see over 100 youth, enjoying
themselves, and there were no loud outbursts, no running, screaming, auguing, etc. What a
lesson these young people are learning while being taught, practicing, playing and enjoying
the game of golf! I can say with all honesty this was one of the most rewarding experiences
that I have had this year.

The following was received from the Reggie Browning Family:
“On behalf of Victoria and the entire Browning Family, THANK YOU for the support in
enabling her to play in the WSGA Junior Golf Championship! Victoria had a fantastic time
and she believes she made some life long friends along the way. She wishes she could
have played better, but this week was a key motivator in her golf life. We look forward to
great things ahead! See you at another Tournament soon!
Sincerely,
Reggie, Shelia and Victoria..”

New book offers help for women with issues and help
for others who care about them:
MY SEVEN SISTERS FROM OTHER MOTHERS
By
Dr. Naomi Bryson
Most sane people are challenged when dealing with
women who have seemingly insurmountable problems and
issues. These women are known as hoarders, whiners,
backstabbers, liars, and emotionally needy.
Naomi describes them as sisters of the heart. She shares
useful recommendations, tips, and strategies for personal growth
as well as techniques for coping and interacting with these sisters
on a daily basis. Sisters of the heart do not need words to
communicate with each other because they have been bonded
together by codes of their hearts. This book promises to help
women to cope with their issues before they destroy themselves
and others around them.
Naomi is the developer of several curricula and is a noted
designer of educational programs; she is a respected speaker,
and workshop presenter. She received commendations for her
published book, The Day Snow Turned Black, which is a
documentary. She became a certified dietitian by the American
Dietetics Association and studied nutrition as an undergraduate at
Atlanta’s Clark College. She has completed advanced studies in
behavioral psychology earned a doctorate degree in educational
administration from Wayne State University.

“SHAMBLE”
A shamble is a type of golf
tournament that combines elements of
a scramble with elements of regular
stroke play.
Like in a scramble, all members of a
team (usually four) tee off and the
best ball of the four tee shots is
selected. All players move their balls
to the spot of the best ball. From this
point, the hole is played out at stroke
play, with all members of the team
playing their own ball into the hole.
So: select the best shot off the tee,
move all balls to that spot, then play
individual stroke play until each
member of the group has holed out.
Hole—In—One POT
The club has initiated a
$500
Hole-in-One Pot.
Any paid member who gets a hole-in-one during
a Desert Mashie sponsored event will receive the
$500. If there is more than one hole-in-one during
the same event, the prize fund will be divided.

People, places and things!
People - Have a story to tell about yourself, a friend,
or loved one? Do you have a birth announcement or
want us to pray for an ailing family member or friend?
Got an anniversary or birthday coming up?
Places - Have you recently discovered a great new
course that you want to share with us? Discovered a
good deal somewhere? Or maybe you’re going on
vacation and want to know if anyone knows of a great
course to golf at your destination.
Things - How about all that golf equipment
you keep buying to improve your game, but
alas, you realize it’s really operator error so
you now want to unload it?
Well, drop us a note with the details (james5297@cox.net) ,
and we’ll put it in the monthly newsletter. Just get me
your information at least 7 days prior to the first of each
month and we’ll publish it in the next newsletter!

Trying too many things at once can be more confusing than helpful.
Work at your golf game, but don't try to fix everything at once.
Work at one specific thing until you can see significant improvement.
That way if you struggle at one part of your game, you will have built
up enough confidence with the improved part of your game to be
encouraged and keep playing.
Did you know that…
In 2012, December has 5 Fridays, 5
Saturdays, and 5 Sundays. This
apparently happens once every 823
years!

HEARD A GOOD ONE….
The duffer muffed his tee shot into the woods, then hit into few trees, then
proceeded to hit across the fairway into some other woods. Finally, after
banging away several more times, he proceeded to hit into a sand trap. All
the while, he’d noticed that the club pro had been watching. “What club
should I use now?” he asked the pro.
“I don’t know,” the pro replied. “What game are you playing?”

We are out of the hot summer months, but it is still important to stay hydrated.
Hydration on the Course
“Stay hydrated” is a common phrase you often hear from playing sports
and on the golf course. Optimal hydration can improve your golf game mentally
and physically. Since the brain is made up of 85% of water and is water
inefficient, it has top priority in regards to blood circulation. Drinking the correct
amount of water will ensure optimal blood flow to the brain which will enable you
to focus on the golf course.
The human body is composed of 25% solid matter (solute) and 75% water
(solvent). For instance, the nucleus pulposus of an intervertebral disc is composed
mostly of water. The majority of the weight of the upper body is supported by this
water volume in the disc; therefore proper hydration can be a preventative
measure against low back pain. Water also acts as a lubricating agent for joints
which can relieve pain from chronic joint pathologies.
Now that you know the importance of proper hydration, the amount of
water consumed per day is critical to reach this goal. Some people say “drink lots
of water”. But what is a lot of water? Other say “drink 8 glasses of water per
day.” This is not an accurate way to determine the amount of water to drink each
day. For example if a female golfer weighs 100 pounds. 8 glasses of water may
cause over hydration. On the other hand if a male golfer weighs 200 pounds, 8
glasses of water falls far below the correct amount of water.
The optimal amount of water to drink is ½ your body weight (pounds) in
ounces per day. For example, a 200 lb. person will need to drink 100 ounces of
water per day. A key point to remember is that other fluids do not count toward
your goal of ½ your bodyweight in ounces. Those fluids include: coffee, tea, juices,
soda, milk, sports drinks, and flavored water. In fact, other fluids like sports drinks
and juices can actually dehydrate the body because it takes water to actually
dilute these high sugar drinks before it is assimilated in the body.
Timing of water consumption is important to optimal hydration. Drinking
water first thing in the morning is critical because during sleep the body becomes
dehydrated. Therefore drinking water first thing in the morning is the first step to
optimal hydration. Start with 25% of your total water intake in the
morning. If your water intake for the day is 100 ounces, you would consume 25
ounces in the morning. During a golf round you should consume 40% -
50% of your total daily intake of water. If your water intake for the day is

100 ounces, you would consume 40-50 ounces of water on the golf course. The
remaining water should be consumed throughout the day.
The type of water you drink is important to achieving optimal hydration. 80% of
bottled waters are filtered tap waters. Choose a bottled water that has
approximately 200-300 parts per million (mg/L) of dissolved solids. This ensures
a proper amount of dissolved solids in the water to maintain proper hydration.
High quality water sources include Evian, Fiji, and Trinity. Water from Reverse
Osmosis units can be used but the dissolved solids can be quite low. A great way
to remedy this situation is to add a small pinch of Celtic Sea Salt to every liter of
water.
Celtic Sea Salt is an organic, unrefined sea salt that has over 80 trace minerals
that will help replenish the body with electrolytes. Not only does it replenish the
electrolytes in the body, it is a great way to prevent muscle cramps. Another great
benefit of using Celtic Sea Salt is the reduction of allergic tendencies. I have had
great results with golfers that have allergic symptoms due to pollen and
grass. Many have reported reduced symptoms of allergic reactions with the
proper amount of water and the addition of Celtic Sea Salt. Please do not
consume regular salt in the place of Celtic Sea Salt. Regular salt is just sodium
chloride which can be quite toxic when consumed on its own without the other
trace minerals.
Drinking the proper amount and correct type of water may be the missing link to
improving your golf game mentally and physically. So, here’s drinking to your golf
game and health.
