TIPS TO AVOID SLOW PLAY
The number one problem in golf today is SLOW PLAY! The following tips can help you keep pace with the group in front of you at all times.
Be ready to hit when it is your turn.
If a player is required to return to the tee to replay his tee shot,it is polite to call through the group following. Limit practice swings to one or none.
Consider all options as you approach your ball to make decisions quickly.
Watch all balls until they stop rolling to avoid lengthy searches.
All players should go directly to their own ball and play when ready.
If you do fall behind, let faster groups play through.
Continue putting until holed out unless you would be standing on someone’s putting line.
