Supper ... Social ... and Picnic ... 'cause we ain't golfing!
Saturday is going to be 20° and sunny. We have an empty golf course, so we're trying something new!
Curbside pickup ... pick your favourite tee-deck and enjoy a delicious meal with members of your own household!

So ... you can reserve a spot online to head to a local waterfall. Reservations are spaced by 15 minutes. This is a complete slap in the face to golf courses who have 150+ more acres to be spaced out. Let's go

at 10:30 this morning and this is going to be my studio (pic taken this morning).
I'll be sitting in the middle of a green with no concern about getting hit by a ball. On a Friday. No clouds in sight. And it's going to be 20⁰.

So many voices, both within the industry and not, saying golf is a safe outdoor activity. We have worked tirelessly to ensure that we're providing the safest environment possible. We have a more controlled environment than a park, playground or big box stores.

Came across something very cool tonight. Many have heard of
#MoeNorman
but maybe didn't realize how much he loved Copetown Woods.
He was actually one of the first to ever hit a ball at CW. He pulled into our turf shop parking lot in the fall of '02 and got out his clubs!!
Tomorrow is vote day at Queen's Park to urge the Premier to support an evidence-based reopening plan for Ontario and open outdoor recreation amenities immediately.
Help us in asking local MPP's how they'll vote:

Promoting outdoor activity is great ... but random cyclists and pedestrians in close proximity is safer than golf? Imagine just 4 cyclists with 10 acres to themselves 🤔
This Google mobility report for Ontario shows a decline in mobility to Retail/Recreation of 37% ... and an INCREASE of 43% to Parks. ()
Parks have zero control over the movement of the public or groups congregating.
Golf courses have full control.

We limit our guests to 4 people every 10 minutes and then give each foursome 10 acres on their own!! If that's not physical distancing, we're not sure what is!

time to reconsider golf as a safe option and let us help Ontarians get outside!!
To refer to the guy in the Trinity Bellwoods Park video that's circulating today is a stretch for sure ... but honestly that guy is hilarious. Does he golf? Who is he??? I've got something for him of he does!! Share this and let's find him!!

While we're excited to sit with 20k of our friends for a professional sporting event, how is it that we are only able to have 50% capacity for weddings in our venue as a small business? At 100% our capacity is 200. Not 20,000.
Yours in confusion. 🤔

I was supposed to be working back shop tonight but quit to work on my short game.

Hot take of the day: Bunker Rakes no more!
If you're playing for a Green Jacket, let me know and I'll follow your group around and personally rake for you!

to roll the golf ball back for all golfers, we've modified our scorecard to assist the average player. In 2024 we'll be moving from Par 72 ... to Par 90. If they can roll back the ball, we'll roll back handicaps!!!

We've never made a "Top xxx Golf Courses in Canada" list and we're happy to say that we missed out again, albeit by just a couple spots!
We don't want any more golfers knowing who we are ... we'll just be over here flying under the radar!

We'd beg to differ on being slow (4hr round every time), and poorly maintained because we're inexpensive (can play 18 for as little as $47 and $69 at highest rate).
This video is worth more than words for our fully public course located an hour west of Toronto, Canada.
We may not make those fancy 'Top 100 lists' ... but it's nice to get some love as a golf course "that punches way above its weight class in terms of conditioning and fun-factor at a can’t-beat-it price."

Beautiful night in Toronto. Remind me, why are golf courses not open? Golf was a MAJOR success story in 2020. Integral for everyone’s physical and mental health. 20,000,000 rounds in Ontario last year & ZERO cases from golf.

Bring your kids, grandkids, neices and nephews. Kids $10 and Adults $20 ... which includes your choice of dinner entree!

They don't yearn for attention. They don't look for praise. The best complement you can give is to replace your divots and fix your ball marks, as it shows you appreciate the work they've done.

They say with age comes wisdom.
After 20 years of business we're still learning every day, but we think we've figured out who we are, and most importantly, who we aren't.
'Public golf never felt so ... Public.'
A new motto with plenty of meaning. We'll explain more soon.
We're open to all golfers. Every day.
We don't run Men's or Ladies Leagues. We don't even run tournaments.
We solely focus our efforts on making every day a great day to be at CW.
For all.

Welcome to the CW Market. We know that a round of golf sometimes leaves you in a time crunch to pick up the necessities on your way home, so we've got you covered!
We continue to push ourselves to enhance your experience on, off and even away from the golf course!
#CWMarket
Hell. To. The. Yes.
Thank you
@drewharvie
for posting. Our rough is definitely more 'US Open' than 'Augusta' at this time and while our greens aren't lightning fast, they're healthy and rolling true. Take advantage of going at the hole while you can!!!
Seeing a lot of people across the Internet complaining about green speeds in Ontario or thicker rough than usual. Please remember: the Premier gave 36 hours notice to get ready. Turf isn’t an overnight thing, it takes time to have it play perfect. Please give the supers time!
Full disclosure: We have no clue when we can re-open. This will just help alleviate some pressure from the mad rush once we get the 36 hours advanced notice from Mr. Ford!
We will not open without Government approval!
Had a great time playing
@CopetownWoods
yesterday. Course is in great shape the expanded patio looks spectacular and we played in less than four hours. In a mental fog, however, I hit a warmup shot on the range with the brand new ball I was going to start the round with. DOH
Great to be back

If

ran a golf course:
Golfer: How much are green fees?
Doug: There's been a lot of talk about the price of green fees. The Poa grass that is creeping through the borders of our Bentgrass geeens is too high and needs to stop before we can open schools.
Golfer: 🤔
@triscrossmakeu
@bruce_arthur
As a family owned and operated business I can answer that ... and the answer is pretty simple. No. And the damn grass won't stop growing!!
While we're definitely not happy about tonight's loss, this is a message to all
@MapleLeafs
players.
Call us for tee times ... we'd be happy to have you come out! And we promise not to ask what happened.
