WOMEN'S GROUP (9-HOLE) This group is in conjunction with our regular 18-hole group. The 9-hole group is designed for the golfer who may not be ready yet for a full round, or may not have the time. The group will begin at 11:30AM to make sure we can all gather after the round and mingle.

MEN’S GROUP (MG) THURSDAY MORNING PLAY Our MG Morning Play is a weekly gathering for Members only, featuring a different format available for both individual and team competitions. The formats will range from Individual Skins games, Stableford Team events, Scrambles, and Net Best-Ball events. The entry fee is a credit book charge that goes into the prize pool. The top winning teams or individuals will be paid out in Sports Shop credit. After the round, all players are invited to meet at The Sawyer for lunch and scoring.

WOMEN’S & MEN’S GUEST DAYS Once a month, we will invite all our Golf Members to bring up to three guests for a fun team event that includes prizes and lunch after the round. This is a great way to show off your Club to friends at a discounted guest fee.

COUPLES GOLF NIGHT Couples Golf Night aims to highlight the social aspects of golf. In each event, couples are paired together to play a low stress round of golf and enjoy dinner after the round. Couples Golf Night plays 9-holes on one Friday every month throughout the season in a 3PM shotgun start. These events are for Members only, and all couples must sign up 24 hours in advance of the scheduled event.

TOURNAMENTS

THE SHORT CUT PART 1 May 25

Gather at 3PM for this two-person scramble! Each player will hit their tee shot and then choose the better of the two and play their second shot from within one club length no nearer to the hole. This process will be completed until the ball is holed.

The number one rule of this event: have fun! A great way to bring the family and friends out for a fun start to our season.

MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP

June 8-September 1

Each match will have three weeks to arrange, complete, and move on.

Handicaps will be based off the beginning date of each round and matches will be played off the low handicap in the pairing.

U.S. OPEN CHALLENGE June 15

This fun event combines your skills with a tour player! Each player will draw the name of a contestant playing in the third round of the 2024 U.S. Open being played at The Pinehurst Resort and Country Club in Pinehurst, North Carolina.

You will combine your NET score with the contestant’s third round score to make up your tournament total. It’s a great way to root on a player you may have never before followed as you pull for him to help you win!

Open to all golfers teeing off before 12PM.

MEMBER/MEMBER Men's | June 21-22

Round 1 | The Shamble - Each player hits a drive then picks the better of the two and plays their own ball in from there. The best ball of the two will be the team score.

Round 2 | One Net Better-Ball of the two Handicaps

Each team will have a 10 stroke differential. The USGA recommends that the spread between partners' Course Handicaps be limited to eight strokes. If the spread is greater, USGA studies have shown those teams have an unfair advantage. OSWGA has adopted a 10 stroke differential for some partner tournaments. Max handicap for all tournaments will be 38.

Round 1 will use 75% of each player’s June 19 Handicap

Round 2 will use 100% of each player’s June 19 Handicap

Women will compete from the Bronze tees and Men will compete from the Blue/White Combo tees.

OLD GLORY July 6

This event brings a little extra fun to the game. If a player is a 10 Handicap, they will play as many holes as they can until they hit their 81st shot. When their ball comes to rest, they will put their flag in the ground marking how far they were able to play. The objective is to play the most holes before reaching Net Par 71. Tee times are before 12PM.

RECIPROCAL PLAY POLICY

Schaffer’s Mill Club gladly hosts Members from other private clubs as part of our reciprocal play program. These guests are limited to non-impact times and are required to pay our Club’s highest guest fee.

In exchange, the clubs from which these reciprocal rounds originate have agreed to extend the same privileges to our Members. If you would like to experience a private club either in your hometown or while traveling, simply make the request to the Director of Golf, and he will work with the reciprocating club on arrangements.

A few important notes to keep in mind:

Their members pay a premium rate when they visit here; our Members should expect to do the same. Reciprocal privileges are intended for Members only. In some situations, accompanied guests may be allowed but please make our team aware of your group makeup before making the request.

Their members are provided access only to non-impact, off-peak times, and often we say no on our busier summer days; please expect that they have the same policies for their courses.

Requests for holidays or weekend mornings will not be made, as it is an inappropriate request for our Club to make.

Asking for a specific time is difficult; if you are flexible in the dates and times you can play, please let us know so we can work with the other club to see your request accommodated. We currently do not have charge-back privileges with other clubs, so please be prepared to pay on site. We ask that you please treat the clubs you visit with the utmost respect and thank the hosting professionals upon completion of play.

To ask about reciprocal play for your next trip, please contact Justin Saragueta at jsaragueta@schaffersmill.com at least one week in advance of your travel. Be sure to include the names of all players in the group and your available dates and times.

PRIVATE GOLF CARS

Schaffer’s Mill Club Members are permitted to own and operate private golf carts on the golf course. This policy outlines information on purchasing and operating your own private golf cart for use on the Schaffer’s Mill golf course.

Private carts must conform to certain guidelines established by the Club (color, body style, tires, accessories, etc.).

All maintenance and upkeep of personal carts will be the sole responsibility of the owner.

Drivers must be 14 years of age or older to operate a private golf cart on the course (see HOA CC&Rs for operation requirements on our community roads).

Carts must be electric. No gas carts.

APPROVED OPTIONS

Weatherproof enclosure (beige, black or white fabric), sand bottle holder, club cleaner, ice chest, radio (radios must be kept at an acceptable, non-disruptive volume level at all times).

For a list of cart vendors please contact the Sports Shop Team.

There is an annual fee for using a private golf cart at Schaffer’s Mill. There will not be an additional fee for any guests riding in your personal cart, but they will be charged a guest green fee.

A Schaffer’s Mill Private Golf Cart Agreement and a copy of the proof of insurance must be submitted to use the cart on the golf course. A valid driver’s license is required to drive all carts on community roads and a violation of this rule will result in revoking the privilege of using the cart in Schaffer’s Mill.

If you have any further questions, please contact Justin Saragueta at jsaragueta@schaffersmill.com or by phone at 530.214.7378.

PACE OF PLAY

The Rules of Golf require that a player must, at all times, play without undue delay and in accordance with the pace of play guidelines which have been established by the USGA Rules Committee as follows:

Schaffer’s Mill Club has established that the rate of progress to complete the course is set at 4 hours. 13 minutes is allotted per hole (14 minutes for par 5 holes) from the time you start the hole to the time that all players have holed out and replaced the flagstick.

Any subsequent group will be considered out of position if, at any time during the round, they

(a) Exceed the allotted time to play, and

(b) Reach the tee on a par 3 hole that is open and free of play or fail to clear the tee of a par 4 or a par 5 hole before that hole is open and free of play

Both (a) and (b) must apply for a group to be out of position. A group out of position will be notified that they are out of position and will be subject to individual timing, and possibly required to skip a hole.

For Tournament Play: Rule 6-7 – Undue Delay; Slow Play applies. The player must play without undue delay.

Undue delay is defined as taking more than 40 seconds to play a stroke.

FLAGD
