The Weekly Rant  

Reminders

1. Pace of Play is critical to the enjoyment of all. The following are examples of how pace of play can be improved:
   • Be early to your tee time.
   • Do not exceed time limit to search for a lost ball. The time limit is three (3) minutes!
   • Putting out after missing a putt vs. remarking a one-footer.
   • Playing ready golf vs. strictly following the “honors” system.
2. If an issue arises on the course during WNL play that may impact the result of a match, please bring the matter to the WNL Director’s (or other BMGA Board Member) attention so we can try to resolve it right away.
3. Future Hole Closures: Holes will continue to be “halved” so players should write down scores that will ensure a halving of the hole.  If there is stroke index differential on the closed hole, players can agree on what score to enter taking into account current handicap, playing conditions, etc.” For example, Player A is getting a stroke. Player A writes down a 5 and Player B writes down a 4.
4. If you move a Prize Pin on the green, please be sure to move it back to its original position so the correct WNL member is awarded the much coveted BMGA Chits.

Handicaps

• All players are responsible for entering a correct course handicap per USGA Rule 3.2c (1). Certain violations can lead to disqualification of the match. Current handicaps can easily be retrieved in the GHIN App as well as the computer terminal in the clubhouse.
• Please post your scores for WNL as they are not entered by the BMGA or Brookview. 
• The WNL Director is not responsible for checking the accuracy of the player’s handicap on the scorecards. Check the GHIN App before teeing off to get your current handicap and adjust it to the Side (Front or Back) and Tees (Member or Gold).

Scorecards  

• Scorecards should not be altered after being submitted without all impacted players agreeing to any changes to the results.  If agreement cannot be reached, the issue should be brought to the attention of the WNL Director of other BMGA Board Member.
• Listing of tee times, poor addition and sloppy handwriting are ongoing deficiencies.  Come on guys!
• Scorecards should be signed by at least one player from each team.
• If someone concedes a hole, please mark an “X.”  This is especially important when both players score a 9 but the hole is conceded by the player who picks up their ball first.
