We live in an area where thunder and lightning storms develop in a hurry and can move fast. Please review the Weather Warning posted on this web site. The most important thing to remember is SAFETY. The Rules of Golf # 6.8 allows a player to discontinue play on their own if he/she feels threatened by lightning. You do not have to wait for the horn, however, a player may not discontinue play because of bad weather. i.e. Rain. Hand-held lightning detectors and a weather service are used, however, these systems are not fail-safe! We feel it gives us an added warning and a better chance to clear the courses of members and their families. PLAY IT SAFE ! |
