Handicaps
WHS Handicapping is now in place and Handicaps will prospectively change after every round (overnight) … wall charts are posted showing handicap ranges for different slope indexes – check on Dot Golf, and read your card every round.
Slow Play
Players must move briskly between shots. When the last player has putted out , move away from the green before filling in scorecards. Players losing one clear hole in front or looking for lost ball, should let the following players play through.
In competition if players fail to follow this procedure they may be penalised under Rule 5.6a and should conform to 5.6b.
Players on the course and not playing in the competition must give way at all times.
Green Fee players must show on their bags or person a swinger, that they have paid for the round before they have begun their round.
Green Fee charges are displayed outside the club house and may now be paid by Internet banking – a screen shot of the transaction is all that is required as proof of payment.
