Cart Usage and Rules Effective August 1, 2024
A. Purpose In order to significantly reduce and/or limit excessive wear and tear to the turf areas on the golf course due to cart traffic, the following policy will be applied.
B. Definitions
• Traditional Golf Cart (TGC) – Designed for use on the golf course with a capacity of two riders.
• Single Rider Cart (SRC) – A TGC with only one rider.
• Personal Golf Vehicle (PGV) – Golf carts or scooters designed for one rider.
• Access Flag –
Type 1 is a BLUE flag assigned from the pro shop only, and only when deemed necessary by a medical professional or the golfer has a disability which is readily apparent, that allow a golfer access to fairways closed for rest, par three fairways, and to drive to within 25 feet of the front of the green.
Type 2 is a RED flag. The RED flag has the same uses as the BLUE flag with the addition of allowing the golfer to ride alone for medical or disability related reasons (SRC).
C. Cart Usage All golf tee times must pair up to two players per cart. Following this rule, foursomes and threesomes shall have two carts, twosomes and singles shall have one cart. Exceptions • If a player is joining a foursome late, the extra cart MUST be kept on the cart path. When completing the front nine, the extra cart MUST be dropped off and the fourth player shall then ride on the second cart. • If a player is leaving a foursome or twosome early, they should pair up with the other players and be dropped off at the turn. • Any additional carts must remain on the cart path for the entire play of that hole (no alternating back and forth with the two other carts that are allowed on the turf for that hole). This applies when a golfer is catching up to their group. It is expected that the extra cart will be dropped off at the turn. Golfers playing nine holes with an eighteen hole group need to pair up and be dropped off at the turn. It is not acceptable to have a third cart in this example. • Each tee time will be limited to one (1) SRC with a RED access flag, with the intent of having no more than a maximum of three TGC carts per group driving on the turf. • This policy is not applicable to Personal Golf Vehicles (PGVs) (i.e. carts designed for one rider…e.g. scooters). • Carts with just spectators MUST always remain on the cart path (no exceptions). D.
Cart Rules: The following rules shall apply to all types of golf carts both rental and privately-owned (other than Blue and Red flags):
• DRIVE ON CART PATH until even with ball then enter turf at 90°.
• SCATTER ACROSS TURF until ball is on green.
• EXIT TURF at 90° to cart path.
• REMAIN ON CART PATH on all Par-3 holes.
• FOLLOW ALL CART DIRECTIONAL SIGNAGE.
• DO NOT DRIVE around sides or back of greens.
• DO NOT DRIVE in the desert or PARK in garden areas.
• DO NOT ENTER private resident property to retrieve golf balls.
