and may be changed no more than one (1) time per calendar year.

TRANSFER OF PRIVILEGES

LOCAL GUEST PLAY

A guest of a Benefitted Member who resides in Sussex County, or who owns a Lot that is not a Benefitted Lot, is considered a “Local

Guest”. A Local Guest may play golf at the member/guest rate a maximum of six (6) times per season (April 1st through October 31st).

This limitation applies even if a guest is sponsored by a different Benefitted Member each time they play or if they are a guest of more

than one Benefitted Member. After a Local Guest has reached his/her maximum of six (6) times of play per season at the member/guest

rate, he/she will still be permitted to play golf, but will be required to pay the applicable public rate. For clarity, this restriction does

not apply to the immediate family of a Benefitted Member (i.e. spouse/significant other, parent, sibling, child, or grandchild of a

Benefitted Member).

MEMBERSHIP CARDS

Benefitted Members, transferees and applicable members of their families may be issued membership cards. If issued, (i) Benefitted

Members may be required to present their membership cards prior to use of all or any portion of the Benefitted Community Facilities;

and (ii) a fee may be charged for replacement of any lost membership cards.

MISSION

It is our mission to provide Members and their guests an exceptional experience.

brought to the attention of the applicable manager.

GOLF COURSE RULES

In setting these rules for the use of the golf course, the Association is in no way attempting to restrict the enjoyment obtained from

playing our golf course. However, it is necessary to follow certain procedures to ensure maximum enjoyment and safety to all golfers.

will make enforcement of any rules unnecessary.

Board and is supervised by the Head Golf Professional.

restricted areas for cart traffic. Exception: When Handicap Flag Privilege (defined below) is in effect.

HANDICAP FLAG PRIVILEGE

The golf shop offers the use of handicap flags for golf carts for those individuals who, for medical reasons, will benefit from their use

use. This privilege does not extend to an additional golf cart rider or other person who is not registered for Handicap Flag Privileges.

GOLF COURTESY AND ETIQUETTE

Golf is a game where courtesy and etiquette should always be observed. The following policies should be strictly adhered to for the

maximum enjoyment of everyone using the golf course.

1. Please repair ball marks on greens and sand divots in fairways.

2. Please rake your tracks leaving a sand bunker.

3. After finishing a hole, place the flag in the hole and leave the green area immediately. Proceed to the next tee, do not remain

parked along the side of the green; mark your scores at the next tee.

4. Please be respectful of private property surrounding the golf course. Under no circumstances shall golf carts be driven on, or any

shot played from, other than golf course property.

5. Slow Play is not permitted. Players are required to maintain a pace of play that keeps them up with the group in front of them.

Rangers and/or golf shop staff consistently monitor the speed of play and are required to enforce the following policies for the

pleasure and enjoyment of the entire field:

(a) First Offense: The group has fallen behind the group in front of them and has fallen behind the allotted time limit for

their position on the course. The ranger will indicate your group is out of position and that you need to catch up to the

group in front.

(b) Second Offense: The group has not improved their position. The ranger will approach the group and inform them of

their second warning and that the next offense will require them to skip an entire hole.

(c) Third Offense: The group has been warned properly and has not improved their position. The ranger will escort the

group to the next hole.

6. Inexperienced golfers are asked to refrain from playing during peak times of the day.

GOLF HANDICAPS

A golf handicap service is provided for Members and transferees for a yearly fee to be determined by the Head Golf Professional.

2. To be eligible for tournament play, an authorized USGA handicap may be required as deemed necessary by the Head Golf

Professional.

Event Rules & Regulations

Event Registration:

Registration for an event on any given day in this guide or otherwise will be available in the Golf Shop or online

at plantationlakesclub.com. Registration forms may be required for certain events. Registration for any given

event will open one month in advance, and will close one week prior to the event. Tee time availability will not

be guaranteed if any person signs up to play after registration has closed.

Rules of Golf:

During club events, the USGA Rules of Golf will govern play. If any questions regarding a rules decision

should occur on the golf course, simply follow Rule 3-3 of the USGA Rules of Golf:

When proceeding under Rule 3-3, the player must: Announce to his marker or fellow-competitor his intention to proceed under Rule 3-3. Specify which ball he wishes to count if the Rules so permit. Hole out with both

balls As provided in Rule 33-8a, the Committee may make and publish Local Rules for local abnormal conditions

such as definitions of boundaries, margins, and status of objects, course protection, course conditions,

obstructions, and dropping zones.

Etiquette:

In an effort to uphold a steady pace of play, the Golf Shop staff may pair single players or twosomes with

another group in an effort to reduce the likelihood of interference with other groups during their rounds. One

9-hole round of golf takes 2 hours and 6 minutes to play, with a small buffer added for tournament play.

The Golf Shop staff will do their best to inform players about the pace of play on a given day, however to

better predict and anticipate the factors needed to uphold pace of play, golfers are strongly encouraged to book

tee times in advance and adhere to their assigned tee time and group. All golfers should be ready to commence

play at the tee area at their designated tee time. If late for a tee time, ask the Starter or Golf Shop Attendant to

reposition you on the tee sheet. Do not under any circumstances commence play from anywhere other than

the assigned hole, tee off before or after your tee time, or confront a group or player regarding slow play.

Your Golf Professional staff greatly appreciates your consideration of the rules of golf and any club policies or

rules that relate to play or conduct. It is our responsibility to uphold these guidelines as professionals, so in an

effort to make your Golf Benefitted Membership experience as friendly and enjoyable as possible, we ask that

you do not confront any other golfers on property regarding the club’s policies. Instead, contact the Golf Shop

so that a Golf Professional can handle violations in a professional, courteous manner.

DSGA Handicap:

Handicap Indexes established under the United States Golf Association (USGA) Handicap System are the

backbone of amateur golf. They enable all golfers at your club to play equitably with one another and, with the

help of the USGA Slope system, to play away from home with equal ease and equality.

In order play in any Plantation Lakes events, eligible golfers must have an active handicap registered with the

club. All stroke play scores must be posted, including 9-hole scores for rounds of 7 to 12 holes completed,

and 18-hole scores for rounds of 13 holes or more.

Example: If you play 13 holes but do not finish the round, you can calculate an 18-hole score by totaling your

strokes for 13 holes, adding the total par for the holes that you did not play, and finally adding the number of

handicap strokes to which you are entitled on the holes you did not play.

Posted scores must be reduced when you have an unusually high number of strokes on any hole.

This procedure is called Equitable Stroke Control or ESC.

Equitable Stroke Control: To use ESC properly, you must first determine the number of strokes you receive

when playing that course and tee. Then use the following table to assist you

18-Hole Course Handicap Maximum Hole Score 9-Hole Course Handicap

9 or less Double Bogey 4 or less

10 through 19 7 5 through 9

20 through 29 8 10 through 14

30 through 39 9 15 through 19

40 or more 10 20 or more

If you do not complete a hole or “pick-up,” you can score the hole by recording the most likely score you

would have had if you had finished the hole (remember to use Equitable Stroke Control)

Tournament scores must be identified by a “T” when they are posted. The Handicap Committee is permitted

to reduce a golfer’s handicap due to exceptional play in tournaments, a beginner golfer’s rapid improvement,

player whose handicaps increase due to a large number of away scores, and/or repeated failure to post scores.

2019 Demo/Fitting Days Schedule

Whether you are a new golfer interested in purchasing your first set of golf clubs, or an avid

player looking to upgrade, it is beneficial to be properly fitted for equipment. Fitting days are a

wonderful way to be properly fit and try the clubs that suit you the best.

Finding the right brand for your game is one challenge, but often times golfers have difficulty

finding the right store to find their favorite brand. Testing a golf club indoors on a simulator is

good, but attending a golf demo day where you can actually test clubs on the driving range in

order to observe your ball flight with a manufacturer representative is even better.

Below is a list of the demo days by manufacturer that will be held at Plantation Lakes this year.

On each day, attendees will work with staff directly from the manufacturer who are qualified to

answer detailed questions for you.

In order to register for each event call Brian Fedish at the Golf Shop
