Local Rules

Bunkers "rake and place". New bunkers at the front of 13 will be GUR. We have removed bunkers on holes 2, 3, 12, 13, 14 & 15, these areas have not yet recovered and are considered GUR. If not marked, use "closely mown" as your guide for relief. 

 

OB will be played at property boundaries only (backyards, I55, etc), any "on course" OB will be played as a "penalty area". Examples are left on hole 2, left on hole 5, left on hole 8. These areas were marked OB, they will be played as Penalty areas. The driving range on the right of hole 9 is also NOT OB but the OB markers will define the penalty area boundary. 

Unless marked, "closely mown" will determine the boundary of penalty areas. We will do our best to mark the golf course.

On the right side of hole 7 we will use the right side of the cart path to determine the penalty area boundary.

 

ALL PUTTS MUST BE HOLED.

 

We are asking all pairings to utilze the electronic scoring system provided.  Paper score cards will be used as a back-up and a secondary source of making sure scores are entered correctly.

 

 

In the event that a dispute arises during competition, two balls shall be played. I am asking that Jim Davey and Kevin Collins join me as "The Committee" to determine a resolution. Decisions of the committee shall be final.
