Etiquette is an integral part of the game, defining golf's core values. It describes the manner in which the game of golf should be played to ensure all players gain maximum enjoyment.
In short, it’s about respect: • Respect for the course - leave the course as you would like to find it by repairing pitch-marks, replacing divots and raking bunkers. • Respect for your fellow players – be sportsmanlike and polite, stay by the green to watch them hole out, and avoid distracting them. • Respect for the game – by knowing the Rules and etiquette of golf.
Respect for Myself I will dress neatly and wear golf or athletic shoes. I will always try my best when I play or practice. I will keep a positive attitude and catch myself doing something right regardless of the outcome. I will be honest with myself, including when I keep score and if I break a rule. I will use proper etiquette and maintain my composure even when others may not be watching.
Respect for Others I will follow all instructions and safety rules. I will keep up with the pace of play on the golf course. I will be friendly, courteous and helpful. I will remain still and quiet while others are playing and have fun without being loud and rowdy. I will be a good sport toward others whether I win or lose. I will encourage others to be safe and physically active.
Respect for my Surroundings I will keep the golf course and practice areas clean and in as good or better shape than I found them. I will clean and take care of my and others’ golf equipment. I will be careful not to damage anything that belongs to others.
Respect the Course Divots Sand bottles are positioned on the back of your golf carts, filled with Silica Sand.

| | Most golfers would benefit from a slightly higher launch and less spin on their tee shots. The Launcher HB, as its name suggests, is designed to get the ball onto a higher and longer ball flight. But that’s only part of the story. | | | | | | Absurd ball speed from everywhere The whole head is designed to flex along with the face. That allows maximum COR (or spring) to be delivered from a much larger area. | Faster from everywhere The added forgiveness is exaggerated further by how the face cup is used to join the face to the head. That allows the area towards the edges to flex and offers spring and ball speed. | | | | We’ve been talking about the radical improvements in face technology and how they help your golf game. If you want to challenge your performance off the tee, then now is the time to come and see us. | | |
