Welcome back to this week’s rendition of Facility Feature Friday! Today we're showcasing Tamarack Country Club in Greenwich, Connecticut!
Designed by Yale graduate Charles Henry Banks in 1929, Tamarack Country Club has been a staple in Western Connecticut for almost 100 years. The course is a Par 71, playing 6841 yards from the Back Tee’s. Each hole has its own unique name and the course is ranked #4 in all of Connecticut. In addition to golf, the club features a fitness center, a pool, and tennis courts with popular leagues. The clubhouse restaurant provides a 5-star dining experience for its members. Plus, Tamarack is a very popular and reliable wedding venue, ranked #2 in the state of Connecticut!
Tamarack recently decided to upgrade their protective netting around the golf course. As a club that provides services to much more than golf, Tamarack provides a facility that ensures the safety of their guests. With holes right next to the driving range, pool, and tennis courts, Tamarack sought out On Deck Sports.
Tamarack installed a total of 13 netting panels around the golf course in 3 different locations. The panels are On Deck Sports’ #18 Nylon Custom Netting Panels, used for containment at courses, driving ranges, and for barriers for homes and buildings.
The first set of panels they installed are located in between the driving range and the 12th hole. Three panels are located here, with dimensions of 30’ H x 60’ L. The next three panels are located in between the pool area and the 10th hole. With dimensions of 25’ H x 50’L, members can enjoy a nice day by the pool while being protected from potential golf balls coming their way. The last set of panels sit by the 10th hole and the tennis courts, with a total of 7 panels. 6 of the 7 panels have dimensions of 25’ H x 55’ L, while the last one is 25’ H x 38’ L.
Our facility experts helped them land on our top-of-the-line #18 golf netting, as On Deck Sports coat’s and dye’s each individual strand of netting while using UV inhibitors for extra durability. Our netting is protected from the inside out. This helps maintain its initial breaking strength. Once the coating on the outside of the netting is broken down, the netting rapidly loses breaking strength and integrity. Our inside-out technology is built for durability and helps maintain the breaking strength of the net. The breaking strength of our netting is the strongest in the industry.
Since 2021, we have been proud to produce On Deck Golf. In this process, we added a full line of golf course and range supplies to our catalog - with club pros, course owners, and public works in mind. To date, our golf division has grown in both support staff and scope. For more information, check out On Deck Golf on our website!
