Speed of Play
We have upwards of 100 players each week, all with different skill levels, and we need to be mindful of how long we spend at each hole. We would like to try to keep our 9-hole rounds to about 2.5 hours and need everyone's help to keep the game moving along.
Please play ready golf. Unsure of what that means? Ready Golf means that ALL golfers should go to their balls as soon as possible and get READY to play their shots. While waiting to hit, players should survey their shot, select their clubs, take them from their bags, and stand at their balls ready to step up and make the shot when it is their turn. Really do anything you can to keep moving along.
Please be mindful of how long you are spending looking for you ball. None of us want to lose balls but sometimes we need to accept it and move on.
Please be mindful of how many strokes you are going above par, please pick your ball up if you have reached a double par on any given hole.
Basic Etiquette: We are a fun league, open to players of all abilities. But if you're struggling on a hole (as we all do), please be aware of teams that may be stacking up behind you. Allow smaller or faster groups to play through, or simply move on and keep the game going. If we do get jammed up, patience is appreciated!
Food and Drink Reminders
A gentle reminder that there are a lot of Canyonettes and a very small kitchen and staff at the Indian Canyon restaurant and bar. If you are planning to enjoy a post-game meal, please consider calling the restaurant when you're on your 8th hole (might not be the actual 8th hole, depending on where you start) to preorder. Also, if you're dining with a group order as a group so your food comes out at the same time. As always, your patience is appreciated!
The phone number is 509-747-5353.
