Please print and bring to the tournament. You will be
asked to initial the registrar’s sheet to confirm that you have read and
understood the rules.
THE RULES OF THE UNITED STATES GOLF ASSOCIATION GOVERN
PLAY. All references to the
Rules of Golf and Appendix I can be found in the 2012 - 2015 Rules of Golf.
ALL JUSTGOLF LOCAL RULES ARE IN EFFECT.
FORMAT: 18-hole
Individual Stroke Play.
PRIZES: Gross
prizes awarded by flight. Trophy awarded to Women’s, Men’s, and Men’s Senior
champions.
SLOPE AND RATING: Gold (women): 67.9/118; White (men): 68.0/118.
YARDAGE: Gold:
5017; White: 6011
YARDAGE MARKERS: 150-yard posts; sprinkler heads
HOLE LOCATION: Chart on cart.
CELL PHONES: Use
prohibited except for emergencies. Silence phones.
CADDIES: No
caddies are permitted.
OBSTRUCTIONS: All
cart paths are immovable obstructions and relief may be taken in accordance
with Rule 24-2b (stance plus 1 club-length at nearest point of relief, no
closer to hole).
STONES IN BUNKERS: Movable obstructions; they may be removed if they interfere with your
swing (Appendix I, Part B, Local Rule #5).
OUT OF BOUNDS: Defined by white stakes.
PLAY THE BALL DOWN EVERYWHERE.
LOST BALL: You
are only permitted to search for a lost ball for 5 minutes. Once 5 minutes have
passed, you must add a 1-stroke penalty to your score and hit a ball from the
spot where you hit your previous shot. If your ball is found after the 5-minute
time allowed for search has expired, you may not play that ball – it is a lost
ball. Play a provisional for any ball that may be in the fescue!
WATER IN BUNKER: There is no relief for a ball lying on wet sand. If the ball is
lying in water in a hazard, you may drop the ball in the hazard at the
nearest point of relief that is no closer to the hole – no penalty. If there is
no place to drop the ball that would not be closer to the hole, and you have to
take the ball out of the hazard, you may drop it behind the hazard on the
line-of-sight to the hole (one-stroke penalty), or hit again from where you
played your original shot (one-stroke penalty).
DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICES: Devices that measure distance only are permitted.
The penalty for taking devices onto the course that measure other conditions
(wind, gradient, etc.), regardless of whether those functions are used, is disqualification
(Rule 14-3).
PROVISIONAL BALL: Hit a provisional ball any time your ball lands in the fescue. If you do
not find the original, you will continue with the provisional (count all
strokes plus a one-shot penalty). If you find your original, you must abandon
the provisional. If your original is unplayable, under a one-stroke penalty you
may drop within two club-lengths no closer to the hole, drop on the
line-of-sight to the hole, or hit another ball where you hit your previous
shot. There is no option to continue
with the provisional if the original is found.
CART ASSIGNMENTS: Players are expected to honor cart assignments. In order for all players
to compete in their flights, it was not possible to avoid pairing players from
the same course. In most pairings, players from the same course are assigned to
ride with a player from a different course.
SCORECARDS: Must
be returned in person to the official scorer immediately following
conclusion of the round. To avoid possible penalty, players should remain
in the designated scoring area until the official has accepted their cards.
DOUBT AS TO PROCEDURE: If you are unsure how to proceed, you may complete the hole with two
balls under Rule 3-3.
PLAY-OFF: There
will be a play-off at the conclusion of play for ties for the women’s and men’s
champions. Remain at the scorer’s table until it is known whether you will be
competing in a play-off.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Practice area: Putting green in front of clubhouse. Driving
range ¼ mile away. Tokens for driving range may be purchased in clubhouse or at
range (exact change required at range: $5 plus $1, paper money only).
Check-in: Please
check in with the JustGolf registrar as soon as you arrive. Walk to the first
tee 15 minutes before your tee time. A club employee will drive your clubs to
the first tee.
Mark balls:
Mark every ball you will use during your round. If you forget, the starter will
have markers you may borrow.
Course care: Please repair ball marks and rake
traps. Replace divots if large; otherwise use divot mix on cart.
Pace of play: 15 minutes per hole.
Do not post your scores: They will be posted by the
tournament director.
The competitor should verify the score after each hole
and settle any doubtful points with the official scorer prior to signing the
scorecard.
COURSE INFORMATION
• Hit a provisional for EVERY BALL that goes into the
fescue (aka “native grass”). The “Native Grass Rule” on the back of your
scorecard is NOT in effect.
• Bathrooms are accessible from Holes #4, 8, and 12.
• You might want to carry bug spray in your bag.
• Numerous water coolers; beverage cart; snack shop
next to pro shop (not accessible during your round).
• The flagsticks will work with Laser Link range
finders.
The course, for the most part, is right out in front of you. There are
very few surprises. Here are a few tips:
#5: Short and
narrow. This is a hole where a straight
shot is much more important than a long one. There is a bunker hidden from view
from the teeing ground that guards the front of the green.
#8: The fescue along
the right side is a lateral hazard.
To get to Hole #9, turn left just before #8 green. Do not play #13 by
mistake (the tee behind the green). Check the hole number on the permanent
marker.
#10: Dogleg left.
#12: Dogleg right.
#16: A long, narrow
bunker runs along the left side of the fescue on the right. This bunker is not
visible from the men’s tee.
