Slow Play Rules

ERMGC PACE OF PLAY POLICY

Speedy Play Is Expected

The time par for Encinitas Ranch is 4 hours 20 minutes. To maintain your position on the course, play "ready golf" and be prepared to play when it is your turn. Play a provisional ball if your ball may be lost outside a water hazard or out of bounds (rule272).
Your group will be considered out of position if you are: 1) behind the pace required to finish in 4 Hr 20 min, and 2) there is a gap between you and the group ahead.

Pace of Play Policy

A Player's Assistant or an official designated by the ERMGC will provide a warning if you are out of position, and will notify the pro shop that your group has been asked to close the gap. One of the PGA professionals on duty will be sent out to monitor your pace of play. If your pace does not improve, the Professional may require your group to discontinue your play of a hole, or skip a hole, and move to the next tee.

In this situation, all players in the group must record the gross score that would result in a NET BOGEY on the hole not completed.

Any group affected by this pace of play scoring adjustment must inform the official scorer of the circumstances on completion of the round.

In the past two months, the Club has struggled to maintain an acceptable pace of play during the Team Play and Sunday Golf Tournaments. In an effort to keep an enjoyable day at the golf course from turning into a 5-6 hour gridlocked experience, we are posting the Club's policy regarding pace of play and will be strictly enforcing it during Club events. This message is meant to inform and help create a more enjoyable playing experience for the entire field. It is imperative that all players make an effort to improve the pace of play during Men's Club events to preserve the allotted weekend tee times provided by the City. We appreciate your cooperation.
