Slow Play

As most of you know, slow play is always an issue. We fully appreciate that many of you face physical challenges, but there are non-intrusive ways to improve the pace of play. Some are set out below. We advised the pro shop that the ranger should respectfully encourage a team with at least one open hole in front of them to reasonably increase their pace of play. In the alternative, any team behind that group will be given the option of skipping ahead of that team and then returning later to finish the skipped hole. We stressed to the pro shop that communication is key so that a team is not surprised when another team skips ahead of them. Your patience and understanding will be most appreciated.
