I had just gotten my cart, so I told him jump in. We drove to Southern Star, which is about 200 yards from our vllla. We played holes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and then left. I never saw a marshall, in fact I never saw another player. When we got back I went online and discovered that Southern Star was closed. This is a true story, the rights are for sale.

Yes I believe your story, but you were trespassing, and you did not get caught. I find it amazing that people think just because they live here they can do what they want. I am NOT saying you John W. But it seems that a lot of people here believe they have a right to trespass. The courses are open for anyone, they are controlled and watched. You can be asked to leave and maybe more if you refuse. The courses are closed at times for reasons, maintenance, work, etc., but some people feel that they can do whatever, ie walking pets on courses not worrying about chemicals, high pressure sprayers and etc. These same people would scream if someone walked on their grass!!! Follow the rules and there is no problem!
