THE CUTOFF TIME IS 4 PM. If you do a reservation and get a 3:59 PM tee time you will get a point. The starter has nothing to do with it. Butttt, they can put it in as "Other course/Time" as 4:08 PM and you won't be assessed a point.

The system through Dec 2021 is after 4 PM. if you take a tee time at 4 PM you will get a play point. This just happened to me, I select afternoon tee times to keep my points down. I play with several groups and points can affect the groups request. I spoke with the tee time office they explained the rule after 4 PM no play point.

This can't possibly be at the discretion of the starter.
I don’t understand why you would be worrying about this? It means nothing. Just go play!

Zero points after 3pm. Anything before that is at the discretion of the starter

The rules have been the rules for a long time. Call the golf administration office for an explanation.

Why do you even care about it??? One Point, give me a break. I play an executive course almost every day and don't have a problem.

That is not what The Villages Golf Guide states. From the Golf Guide:

Priority Membership Status is only applicable on the championship courses and has no bearing on the executive courses.

May 1st thru Dec 31st there are no points if you play Golf after 4 o’clock. Walk on or find open T- Times. . You can run a copy of these rules from the Villages Golf site. Many of the starters do not know the correct times. We play after 4 frequently with no points. If you walk on and t-off before 4 o’clock you will get a point

If you play with groups, points will keep your group from getting good tee times or no tee times at all.
