Golf Course Etiquette

•    Play without delay, keep up to the group in from of you, not the group behind you.
•    Carry an extra ball to speed up play.
•    Replace divots through the green.
•    Repair your ball mark plus one.
•    Leave the course better than you found it.
•    Keep carts away from greens and tees, observe course markings.
•    Be considerate of others on the cources, including their safety.
•    Par 3 holes: whenver possible, wave up the group waiting on the tee behind you...if you are waved up, after the players have teed off, proceed halfway to the green and stop.  Wait until players in front of you have putted out, then proceed to your ball.
