What it actually says:


Starting Wednesday, April 8, all Championship and Executive Golf Courses will close at 4:00pm following the last tee time. No tee times will be available after 4:00pm on any Championship or Executive golf courses. This means, anyone wishing to play golf must have a tee time prior to 4:00pm on any Championship or Executive course. Anyone found on a Championship or Executive golf coursewho did not have a tee time prior to 4:00pm will be asked to leave the course. As usual, all golf courses are for golfing traffic only.

This new straight 18 only is going to cut back on golfers. I put in a request last Friday night for this coming Friday, for 3 golfers between 1:00 and 1:30 pm at 6 championship golf courses and we didn't get anything.

I could understand if I had asked for 11:56 to 1:00, but I guess a lot of people want to play only 9 holes, because 1:00 is the magic number for nine holes only. In our case, we want to play 18 and anything later is too late for us. They should really make 9 hole requests start at 2:00 or 3:00.

Does the virus sleep during the day and wake up after 4:00 PM?

Maybe it’s because of the mosquitos? The county has started spraying a month earlier than usual.

You only gave them a 30 minute window. Why didn’t you just tell them you want to play at 1:16, that being the only time you want. You have to give them at least four hours if you want to get a tee time.

It's due to staffing - employees going on hiatus or quitting. With the lack of respect most golfers give our courses, it is necessary to have some oversight and there aren't enough workers to staff the extended summer hours. I dread seeing what those courses are going to look like after the hackers get out there without anyone reminding them not to drive on the greens or to sand their divots - oh, that's right they don't do that even when there is someone to remind them! You know there will be those who don't respect the "closed" signs.

Default I assume it is not allowed to walk on any course after 4:00PM? Please confirm.
