⛳ Pace of Play – Let’s Keep It Snappy, Ladies! ⛳

Let’s help each other out and aim for a fun, flowing round. Our goal? 18 holes in 4 hours and 15 minutes or less – whether you’re riding or walking (or crawling on the back nine 😅).


Here’s how to keep it moving without breaking a sweat (or too many clubs):


  1. Play Ready Golf - Don’t wait to be “the furthest away.” If it’s safe, swing away! While one gal’s hitting, the rest should be prepping like it's a military operation: rangefinder out, club ready, game face on. Boom-boom-boom.

  2. Leave the Flag In - We love a dramatic moment, but removing the flag every time isn’t necessary anymore. The rules of golf now allow you to putt with the flagstick in the hole — and it actually speeds up play. So unless you're planning to drop to one knee and pop a question, there's no need to make a ceremony out of it. Just leave it in and keep it rolling!

  3. Inside 2 Feet? Tap It In - If you can sneeze it in, don’t mark it. Channel your inner Nike: Just do it.

  4. Lost Ball? Give It 2 Minutes Max - This isn’t a scavenger hunt. Whack yours first, then go treasure hunting if you must.

  5. Cart Chit-Chat Can Wait - Don’t post your score, change your shoes, and reorganize your handbag by the green. Drive to the next tee, then get your life in order.

  6. Quick Turn at the Clubhouse - Grab-n-go, folks! Not grab, chat, check your texts, get distracted by snacks…

  7. Socialize on the Move - Cart rides and walks back from the green are made for gossip. Leave the tee box and green for golf swings, not storytime.

  8. One Swing to Rule Them All - 5 practice swings and a dramatic pre-shot routine won’t land you on the LPGA Tour. Trust your gut and hit the ball.


Remember: Pace of Play is a Mindset

Yes, it’s hot. Yes, we love a good chinwag. But a round under 4:15 makes for a happy course, a smiling group, and maybe even time for a post-round beverage.
