Default New non-cash golf policies

I have been reading about the new non-cash transaction policies in regard to golf. Perhaps I have not paid adequate attention, but I do not understand how this works in regard to executive courses and trail fees. I pay my trail fee annually. When I play on new courses south of hwy 44, I cannot drive my cart to these places so I pay a cash fee ($6 I believe) to rent one of the carts available at these 5 new courses. So what happens now??? If they don’t take cash, do I have to walk? Do they take credit cards? Do I have to pay the monthly advance trail fee, even though I‘ve already paid the annual one? Any help would be appreciated (or even jocular remarks).

They accept credit or debit cards only.
(though tips for the people who bring your bag to/from the rental cart can still be cash)

They take only credit or debit cards. If you pay a yearly trail fee that is not added to the cart fee. I believe it was $3 per person for a cart. And the courses are in great shape.

Executive courses are all cashless, and no debit or credit cards are accepted. If you want to rent a cart you need to go through a champ course that is nearby to pay.

Call the tee time office and ask them, they will give you the details. If you pan an annual fee there will be no additional charge. Not sure I would trust rental carts at any of the locations.....would probably need to take my own wipes before using.

...and when you get to the championship course to pay, they will accept either credit or debit card. No cash.

That would be fine as an added precaution, but the carts are sanitized before they go out and when they come back. All surfaces that can and are touched are wiped with disinfectant, including the seats, and even the sand bottles.

Credit cards are accepted at all executive courses south of CR44. Credit cards only, no cash at this time.

MY husband has been playing the Championship courses. He is a priority member. He said Lopez and Glenview are in great shape. The other courses except for Havana are very good.

This is incorrect south of 44. There are no Championship courses to go to for a cart rental.

We arrived at Loblolly yesterday for a 3:35 tee time and were told no cash.
And no explanation that we had to call and purchase a $20 trail fee card in advance...
Or walk. We went home.

Golf is - or should be - a walking game. Why not walk?

There are no championship courses south of 44. You can pay by credit card at the starter shack. Or call ahead of time and pay.
