Course Care

Care of the Golf Course

A. Greens Maintenance

• Please repair your ball mark and one other to maintain the quality of our greens. An un-repaired ball mark will take weeks to heal and an improperly repaired ball mark can take up to a month to heal. The sooner a ball mark can be repaired properly, the best chance it has for recovery. • Please refrain from stepping immediately around the hole and be careful removing a golf ball to prevent unnecessary wear around the hole.
• Do not use your putter to remove the ball from the hole.

B. Bunker Maintenance

• Please rake all bunkers after you have played your shot.
• Rakes should be placed inside the bunkers, parallel to the fairway.

C. Divot Maintenance

• Tees: If a divot is taken, simply refill the spot with sand mix.
• Fairways: Use sand mix to fill divot. If divot is thick, please replace, adhere to ground, and sprinkle with sand mix.
• Rough: DO NOT USE SAND MIX. It is not intended for the rough. Please replace thick divots.

D. Golf Cart Operation

• Use golf cart paths where provided.
• Where there is not a cart path, avoid excessive wear areas.
• Use the 90 degree rule when crossing the fairway.
• Keep carts a minimum of 30 feet away from greens, tees and bunkers.
• Certain conditions may require restricted use of golf carts or walking only conditions. This ruling is at the discretion of Course Superintendent and/or Golf Professional.
