Default Pitch and Putt Reservations(?)

I am looking to get my wife back into Golf and thought the Pitch and Putt courses might be a good option. I've been told you need to have reservations and that you can make the on TheVillages.net site but I don't see them anywhere. Can this be done on-line or is it just a phone call.

Just to make sure I have this correct, these are walking courses only no golf cars allowed.

Thanks in advance for the help.

On line with an $8/month fee. Via the automated telephone reservation system. Or, call the starter shack and ask about same day tee times. No carts. You can rent carry bags or bag carts for a nominal fee.

It's handled exactly like the executive courses. If you go when they are not busy, you can sign in as a walk on.

Is a person SOL if they are not a golfer and do not have access to the tee-time system - or can ressies be made some other way?

That's interesting, I have the account, I book my executive and championship courses all the time, but I don't see the Pitch and Putt courses anywhere or the category...

I think there is only one pitch and putt, and it's on the reservation system under exec courses----Marshview

That’s the truth. I tried it once, took four attempts to get everything right. But, in the end, I got my tee time.

There is only one pitch and putt but they building two more. One in Richmond and one below Citrus Grove. Never had problems using phone to get a reservation!

Richmond is coming along, should be close to open by fall. The putt and play you drop your ball in the hopper, and it’s your turn when your ball is next. Have to say they are the most boring, useless waste of time, but that’s just an opinion

The so-called "putting courses". I'm not sure, but I don't think so
