Golf Course Etiquette, Cell Phone and Attire Policies


We would like to remind our members of the following course etiquette items.
  • Fix your divots, repair ball marks and rake the bunkers.
  • Clean up broken tees on par three's and remove tees from all teeing grounds on the course.
  • Place your trash in the proper receptacles on the course - do your best to leave YOUR COURSE better than you found it.
  • Register with a member of our professional team or on the tee sheet prior to playing the course.
  • Play your round in four hours or less for a foursome and allow faster groups to play through.
  • Remove the practice balls from the short game area and rake the bunkers when completing your practice session.
  • In short, be respectful of your fellow members, staff and our team members who work tirelessly to provide you and your guests with the "Applebrook Experience".
