Golf Tips from a Pro: IceHouse Open and Oktoberfest Ironman Open

As the season is winding down, I thought I would remind everyone of our last two tournaments of the year.
On Saturday, Sept. 22, we’ll host the fifth annual IceHouse Open. This tournament is a fundraiser for the Big Sky Skating and Hockey Association. Throughout the years, the IceHouse Open has raised $5,000 annually, with the overall goal of raising $100,000. This is the amount needed for an artificial ice surface that would ensure a much longer winter season of ice activities for the Big Sky community.
The format is a four-person “one club scramble,” with each team getting to use a combination of four clubs. Players may use their own clubs, but the size has to be the same for all four. The registration fee includes 18 holes of golf with a cart, flag prizes, awards and entrance to the dinner that follows. Mulligans and string by the foot will be available for purchase at the time of check in. Golf will commence with a noon shotgun start.
Call (406) 995-5780 to sign up.
The final tournament of the 2018 season will be played at noon on Saturday, Sept. 29, as the seventh annual Okotberfest Ironman Open. The format is a 2-person scramble with a chance to play Big Sky Golf Course at its toughest, with the hole locations cut in the most difficult places and the yardage stretched out to the longest possible setup.
This year, we’ll be waiting until after the Ironman is played to aerate the greens, so expect an ever-tougher challenge putting the ball. The registration fee includes 18 holes of golf with a cart, flag prizes, awards, and entry to the authentic Oktoberfest dinner that follows.
This tournament will happen on the second-to-last day of the 2018 season, with the golf course officially closing Oct. 1. Don’t miss the last chance of the season to play the Big Sky Golf Course with a fun but competitive format open to all golfing abilities.

We all are familiar with using a limited palette, but do you use one? Do you know how to use a limited palette to create different color combinations? Are you tired of carrying around 15-20 different tubes when you paint plein air? Have you ever wanted to create a certain “mood” in a painting but failed? Do you create a lot of mud? Do you struggle to achieve color harmony? All these problems are addressed in John’s workbook in clear and concise language!
Based on the bestselling “Limited Palatte, Unlimited Color” workbook written by John Pototschnik, the workshop is run by Maggie Shane and Annie McCoy, accomplished landscape (acrylic) and plein air (oil) artists,exhibitors at the Big Sky Artists’ Studio & Gallery and members of the Big Sky Artists Collective.
Each student will receive a copy of “Limited Palette, Unlimited Color” to keep and take home to continue your limited palette journey. We will show you how to use the color wheel and mix your own clean mixtures to successfully create a mood for your paintings.
Each day, we will create a different limited palette color chart and paint a version of a simple landscape using John’s directives. You will then be able to go home and paint more schemes using the book for guidance.
Workshop is open to painters (oil or acrylic) of any level although students must have some basic knowledge of the medium he or she uses. Students will be provided the book ($92 value), color wheel, value scale and canvas papers to complete the daily exercises.
