Play Ready Golf

Play from appropriate Tee Box

First and foremost we ask that you please Play Ready Golf and keep up with the group ahead. It is the player’s responsibility to do whatever necessary to assure our Pace of Play Policy is observed. If it is determined a hole or more is open ahead of you as a result of slow play Southern Landings Golf Club reserves the right to require you or your group to skip a hole without refund. It is necessary to enforce this Pace of Play Policy in order to provide the golfing experience all customers deserve and have come to expect.

We request players play from the appropriate tee box for their skill level based on the following:

Average Driving Distance

150-175 - Green
175-200 - White
200-225 - Blue
225-250 - Black
250+ - Gold

We greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we strive to offer a 5-star golfing experience.

Cooler months, we can expect some frost delays in the mornings.

We understand that this delay may inconvenience your plans, and we apologize for any disruption. However, safety and course conditions are of utmost importance to us, and this delay is necessary to protect the turf and ensure the best possible golf experience.

Members and guests should know that when play starts after a frost delay, we go in order of tee times.

As valued guests of our golf club, we understand the significance of having a smooth and efficient tee time reservation process. We kindly remind you to make tee time reservations in advance through our online booking system or by calling the pro shop at 478-923-5222. By doing so, you help us manage the flow of golfers and provide the best experience for everyone.

Tee Time Day of Check–In Policy:
All members and guests are required to check – in with the golf shop prior to beginning play.

Tee Time Cancellation Policy:
If you are unable to attend your scheduled tee time or have a different number of golfers than originally booked, we ask that you cancel or reschedule your reservation with at least a 24-hour notice. This will allow us to adjust our tee sheet and extend the opportunity to other golfers for that time slot.

Tee Time No-Show Policy:
It is very important to manage your time(s) effectively. Whether you have one or multiple times, whether the time(s) were made over the phone, through our online tee sheet, or are standing time(s), it is imperative to call the pro shop at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled tee time if your number of players changes or if you need to cancel one or all of your times. Failure to effectively manage your tee time(s) may result in loss of time(s) and a no–show fee.

Please note: We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, and exceptions may be made in cases of emergencies or extenuating circumstances. Our primary aim is to strike a balance between understanding our patrons' needs and maintaining a fair system for all golfers. If you are aware that you cannot make your tee time, we ask that you inform us as soon as possible. Whether it's due to unexpected circumstances or any other reason, communicating with us promptly will enable us to reorganize the tee time schedule effectively.
