- Slow play in an ongoing problem that we can all do better to minimize. It's very important that we adhere to golf course requests to play in the least amount of time possible. Below are a few tips that can really help speed up the pace of play.
- Always make sure your group is keeping pace with the group ahead
- Walk or drive to your ball when your playing partner is hitting
- Hit a provisional ball when there's a chance your ball may be lost
- Line up your putt while your playing partner is putting
- Putt out whenever possible
- Always play ready golf. There is no penalty for playing out of turn.
- Don't be afraid to tell your player partners, "Let's pick up the pace because we're out of position with the group ahead of us."
- Always make sure your group is keeping pace with the group ahead
- Comments, suggestions, complaints, etc. are always welcomed by the Board. Members speaking up and providing feedback is the only way that changes can be made to improve our Club. Please feel free to voice your concerns to any Member of the Board.
