Championship Flight:
Joe Jaspers continues his great play this summer, but even this one had to surprise Joe. All he did Saturday at Edgewater was set the course record and tie the all time score in any eGolf Amateur event at 8 under par. Jasper tied Chase Wilson who shot 8 under par (63) last year at the Warrior Golf Club. Jim Aughtry summed up Jaspers performance by watching him poor in eight birdies against no bogies on the day. Aughtry’s said” It did not matter if it was 30 feet or 3 feet it was going in; the cup was like a Bushel Basket to Joe today”, fun to watch! Jaspers record setting performance was 4 under 32 on the front side matched by a 4 under 32 on the back nine for the course record 64. Adam Vincent also shot under par a one under 71 performances. Adam played strong all day to capture second place and finish only 7 shots back of Jaspers. 74 became the log jam number for 3 and fourth spot. Chase Wilson, Bill Hall and Todd McPherson all shot 74’s on Saturday but Wilson got them both on the card for 3rd and Hall finished in 4th.

As always one of the tightest flights for scores and the points leaders did not disappoint.
Greg McCoy won for the first time this season with a strong performance of 77. McCoy’s highlight on the day was a chip in eagle 3 at the par 5 17th hole. Vic Lawrence finished his round strong and almost caught McCoy by finishing birdie, par, birdie and shooting a second place score of 78. Terry Upright finished in third with 79 and held on to the points lead by a slim 5 points. Patrick O’Connor continues to improve in B flight since his promotion and shot 81 good enough for 4th place.

Course architect, David Postlethwait, has sculpted from the naturally beautiful property, one of the most exceptional courses. While the course is challenging, golfers of all abilities will still marvel at this amazing track. It is over 6,800 yards long with subtle, but distinct topography changes, water holes created by a natural stream that winds throughout the course, unexpected landscape and hardscape elements, and 18 exquisite holes that end with velvety MiniVerde greens. The Red Bridge course is one of only a few in the country with this type of superb green.
Adjacent to the course is a fully stocked pro shop, a practice facility, and the requisite "19th hole" where players can gather to raise a pint and replay their triumphs. Or tragedies.
Golf is in our name. Golf is in our blood. And our beautiful, 7,100 yard championship course is the backdrop for life here. Created by one-time Pete Dye protégé, David Postlethwait, the course is a master-piece of design. Even for the non-golfer, it has strong appeal.
Living on or near a golf course can mean unexpected joys like inhaling the fragrance of freshly mown grasses, watching birds as they make homes in the stately old trees, and viewing great calming expanses of verdant fairways stretching out before you. Also equally appealing to both golfer and non-golfer will be the handsomely appointed 24,000 square foot Red Bridge Clubhouse. Construction of the clubhouse will begin after the opening of the golf course which is scheduled for late June or early July of 2009.
Directions
From Charlotte: Take Highway 24/27 East towards Locust. You will pass the the intersection of I-485 and then the intersection of Hwy 601. Continue East on 24/27. The entrance to the golf club will be on your left. The course is about 15 minutes from the intersection of 485 and 24/27.
