Golf carts

Golf carts are a convenience, a luxury even, and should not be used to annoy others. Park behind or beside the first tee, but never in front of it. Carts should normally stay ONLY on the paths, and are required to do so on many courses. When you get out to walk to your ball, take a few extra clubs along to save an extra trip should you need a different club, thereby keeping the pace of play moving along.

Should carts be permitted off the paths, observe the "90 degree rule:" carts should make a 90 degree turn off the path towards the fairway to a given ball, and return straight back to the path, not along the path of greatest convenience. Carts add wear and tear on the course, not to mention that you might accidentally drive over someone else's ball. Try to keep the noise of backing up to a minimum and remember to set the brake before you get out of the cart.
