Golf Course Reminders As spring slowing creeps out of that long cold winter the golf season is getting into full swing. As we get started this season our Arlington and Fairfax golf staff asked to remind everyone of a few things: • The no mow areas on the golf course are by design. They are not marked as hazards so any ball that enters a no mow area and is not found is a Lost Ball. While playing your round, if you stroke a ball into the now mow areas, please play a Provisional Ball to help with the pace of play. • Though the grass in the now mow areas is shorter during the spring, it is not intended for golf cart traffic. You may enter now mow areas in search of a ball, but please DO NOT drive golf carts into these areas. • Please observe the golf cart rules for the day. Every effort will be made to maintain the 90º cart rule as often as possible. However, when carts are restricted to paths, please keep all wheels on the paths. • The fairways at Arlington are Patriot Bermuda grass. When taking a divot please fill the divot with sand. There is no need to replace the divot as it will die. The grass will fill-in within a few days. • Please be sure to repair your ball marks on the green as a June through August The 2018 Flighted and Senior Flighted Match Play Tournaments are individual match play events. All eligible players will be placed in flights of 8 based on their June 1, 2018 handicap index. All flights will play off the low handicap of the pairing. There will be a men’s and women’s division.
