Course Care Reminders

Over the past few weeks, we have prepared the golf course for winter play, and here are a few reminders for the course over the next few months. All of the course accessories, including all of the tee markers, have been removed for winter refurbishing. Please tee off from different spots of your choice over the next few months! Most of the men’s (yellow tee marker) par 3 tees, as well as a few select black tees, will be covered for the winter to help with recovery. We started this practice a few years back, and it helped our areas with the most divots a lot going into the golfing season. Please use this as an opportunity to tee off from a teeing area that you would not normally use. It’s a great opportunity to see the course from a different perspective! We have also added two separate pin locations to each green, as per our normal practice for the winter. Please keep in mind that there WILL BE NO EZLOCATOR PIN SHEETS through the winter. We will start the daily pin sheets at the beginning of the golfing season, most likely around April 1st of 2022. Also, please rotate the flag to the other hole on each green after your play. Rotating the flag will help disperse the wear and traffic on the greens throughout the winter. Finally, periodically throughout the winter we will utilize temporary pins on a few of the greens, or all the greens depending on the circumstances. During the freeze and thaw cycle, it is sometimes necessary to close a green, so we do not hurt the root zone of our greens.

PLEASE DO NO WALK ON A GREEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED!
When walking to the next holes tee, from a temporary green it is VERY important that you walk around the green. Thanks for following all our winter rules....and please do not forget to fix your ball marks throughout.
