Permanent Pace of Play Policies

TRIPLE BOGEY - The maximum score on any hole is triple bogey.  Players MUST pick up their ball and help their group finish the hole as quickly as possible. 

WAVE UP PAR 3s – If your group has not removed the pin from the hole on ANY par 3 and a group is waiting on the tee box, please wave them up.

CONTINUOUS PUTTING – All players are encouraged to play ready golf and to finish their putting and not mark short putts.  Players should announce their intentions to finish and confirm their playing partner’s acceptance.

MOVE QUICKLY- All players should play ready golf and move quickly and diligently throughout the round.

WORK AS A TEAM – Rake bunkers for your playing partners, help them look for lost balls, pick up clubs, play ready golf, be positive.  Be respectful – but play when ready.

CART PROTOCAL - DRIVERS of carts should DROP OFF their partners, let them CHOOSE their clubs (take extra ones if required), DRIVE to their own balls, and then get READY to play.
