Play Days

Play Days are scheduled for most Wednesdays, except when an Ace Day or Tournament is scheduled instead. Play starts at 9:30 am from November through March, and at 9:00 am from April through October. Players are expected to be at the practice green 15 minutes before play starts out of respect for all.

An individual or team game is played on each Play Day. Players can participate in an optional $3 cash wager each week. Typically the pot will be split 3 ways--1/3 to winner of low net, 1/3 to winner of low gross, and 1/3 split between those who either chip in or shoot a birdie. If there are no chip-ins or birdies, the pot is split equally by low net and low gross players. There are no cash carryovers.

On Play Days, pick up your ball and record your score once you've reached a "Net Double Bogey Maximum" score. This is computed as Par + 2 + Handicap Strokes on the hole. For a 36 handicap player, the maximum score on Par 3's is 7, on Par 4's is 8, and on Par 5's is 9.

On Play Days, each group is assigned a Golf Genius ID (GGID) which will be printed on the scorecards. One member of each group must enter their group's scores immediately after each hole. The group is to verify their scorecards against Golf Genius at the end of holes 9 and 18, then hand them in to the Pro Shop desk immediately after play. The assigned staff member will calculate and report the day's winners using Golf Genius, and prize money will be paid out.
