So PVC gone and rakes back is fine but 2 in a golf cart isn't ?

That is correct. If I choose to rake a trap or pull a pin, I will be very careful to not touch my face until I get to my cart and sanitize my hands. What I will not do is share a cart in a very close space where I can not properly distance from a total stranger. Forced sharing of a golf cart with strangers is a very bad thing during this pandemic! If they force strangers to share a cart then they should also make wearing a face mask required while golfing. That wouldn’t be very popular.

Seems to me that perhaps y’all should look around at other states that have been having 2 persons to a cart for most of the last 5 months and the numbers are going down just like in Florida, if you’re concerned about it then don’t go , the additional wear and tear on the facilities is the reason the single cart per person rule is being changed , rounds go in astronomical numbers as the winter residents arrive so it’s time

Horrible idea, the virus is far from over. Not going to sit next to someone in a golf cart. Many will just stop playing.

I am an executive ambassador. You can take it to the bank. It is true. I expressed my concern of this being too soon, but was told that the “Phase 3” rules will be implemented. The individual courses did not implement this. It came from higher up.

So by The Village standards the Covid-19 pandemic is over,flu season has been suspended. Snowbirds are landing and The Villages Hoispital will be run in an efficient manner to accommodate those who end up sick. Please continue to wash your hands,use hand sanitizer, and wear the 😷 Mask. Covid-19 is not over . Or say the heck with it and bring it home to your spouse or grands. Sharing is a good thing. Maybe tomorrow town squares will not require tickets. Yep 100% back to what was.

There is the option to use a push cart and walk the course. Not ideal d/t the distance between tee boxes but definitely possible.

At some point, things will return to normal and we will never quite be sure if the time is right or if it is too early.

BTW - No one is forced to ride in a cart with another person. At least not as long as playing golf remains optional.

I agree, way too early to go back to “normal” on the courses! Bad idea.

So, if you’re playing with 2 people that have RAs, then the non-RA people will have to drive on the path for all 18 holes. I’m not comfortable riding with anyone except for my husband, and he will not golf with me on ladies days! And I am not going to be the one always riding on the cart paths. I really do not want to handle a rake that someone else has used. The solution to that is a personal rake on my cart. What is going to happen if people will not touch the rake and rake the sand? Exactly what has been happening now.... messy sand traps. I assume there will be people who will refuse to touch the rake and we will see traps with foot prints. With regard to the pin, I will not touch it or remove it. I imagine other people will do the same and now we will see an increase in damage to the cup.
I find the timing of this suspect with the snowbirds coming down. Is this to please the swarms that will be coming from God knows where or do the developers anticipate a drop off by year-round residents being made up by the snowbirds?
Why were individual Golf Carts allowed on the golf courses for this long but all of a sudden they aren’t. Could it be the snowbirds?

Way too premature. We are coming into the fall where cases are likely to go up. Also, the pandemic is far from over, even with a vaccine. Don’t understand the logic at all other than they “can”. Not a good decision

Simple walk the course or have two people play or don’t play at all

2 carts per foursome starting Oct. 10
 

Good luck enforcing this!! No way am I going to ride with someone other than my wife, and they will not stop me from riding by myself unless they physically restrain me!

No one is being forced to do anything. Life wont end without golf

Isn’t that the ambassador’s job
