PACE OF PLAY
Playing golf at a reasonable pace is consistent with the etiquette of the game, traditions at Winters Run, and demonstrates proper respect for others on the course. All groups playing are expected to meet our Pace of Play standard of:
4 hours or less per foursome / 2 hours per nine holes
3 hours, 30 minutes or less for a twosome / 1 hour, 30 minutes per nine holes
Golf Course Etiquette
It is the responsibility of each golfer that divots are properly tendered, bunkers are raked, and ball marks on the green are repaired.
Golf carts should stay on paths whenever possible & keep at least 30 yards from the approach. Please also keep carts on paths only around all tees & greens, as well as on all Par 3’s, keeping all four wheels on the path.
If any group plays slowly that the players are holding up the groups behind them, and at the same time, have at least one open hole in front of them, they should either play faster to close the gap in front of them or stand aside to let the following group play through.
Each player must have their own clubs in a bag when playing.
Bunker rakes are to be placed inside the bunkers in-line with the direction of play.
Cellular Phones are permitted at Winters Run and are requested to be on vibrate or silent. We also ask that you please refrain from making/receiving calls on the course, in the clubhouse, or elsewhere on property that would result in a disruption of other persons nearby, unless there is an emergency.
