Paying for Golf – Can still pay the old fashion way, but have implemented other options. Purchase rounds online, pay over the phone, Purchase Club Credit or Gift Cards on our website, or put your credit card on your profile (secure and safe). With those options we can minimize contact or not even come into the pro shop.

Accordingly, and as confirmed by the Governor’s Office, golf is considered a recreational activity under the clause of “such as” for the purpose of this order.  

Please note that it is impractical for the legislature or the Governor’s Office to name with exact specificity, every conceivable, acceptable recreational activity that people engage in. Accordingly, they utilized the phrase “such as”.

Some counties in Florida have specified that golf courses in their county are closed and these county orders should be followed.

When playing or practicing golf during the Coronavirus crisis, players should follow all suggested social distancing guidelines.
