How old do kids need to be to play golf here or just ride along..
 
There is always some confusion this time of the year. Usually Bogie Shooter directs us to the rules.

I asked a few months ago and I was told to ride along they must be 10 years old. I believe it is the same to play unless they can demonstrate to the golf pro that they are proficient.

Old enough to count to SIX, because once you reach that number of strokes, you put the ball in your pocket and move on to the next hole.

oddly enough if a 2 year old is proficient to the club manager/pro then they can indeed play.

Sounds like you're serious! LOL....that may be true but blueeagle said you only need to be able to count to 6, I guess he forgot about par fours. :eclipsee_gold_cup:
