This is not new, as stated earlier. Fortunately, I have not encountered one of the power hungry starters yet. But, if I did, I would demand a $4.00 + tax refund for my trail fee. You pay the trail fee to be able to take YOUR cart on the course. Let's open up a whole new argument!

Golf carts are extremely detrimental to championship golf courses conditions. Bermuda becomes stagnant in the winter. Notice how course employees place stakes to route traffic to diminish grass being killed. Our courses are played heavily in the winter.
The course superintendents are trying to maintain the best conditions. Will the same complainers here later complain about poor course conditions this winter?

No, you pay a trail fee to use A cart, not necessarily your own. But if you’re referring to a trail fee, you’re referring to execs where the point is moot except on the few par 4s

That is correct

Now that supervision is gone, most starters don't care.
Who someone who says he is MR Helpful, you seem to give out wrong information. Supervisors are available to handle problems and starters better care!

How can they enforce it? Tell them Covid is still out there & you don't want a stranger in your cart.

Found the policy buried in the golf website. This should be on front page. The author of this policy needs to get an earful from many. A 90 degree rule solves this issue. Ridiculous.

The rules have been posted for almost 2 months, and gee whyy do you think they went to 2 carts almost no one followed the 2 cart in the fairway rule, what makes you think the 90degree rule would be different!

Rules were effective November 1. Don’t know where the months ago come from. Needs to be in writing. Oral representations are nonsense

Just tell the starter "cough cough" sure hope I don't have COVID. I would hate to be the one that forced me to ride with this guy. If that doesn't work, try it on the cigar smoker. JK

It went into effect 11/1, you are correct! But it was posted on the web site and signs were up at all starter buildings since the middle of September.
