Regards, Doug Corrao, President PMMGC Sky Caddy (Distance Measuring Device) using GPS Satelites Painted Mountain is one of the courses available. Not every golf course in the state has signed up yet. If you are interested in purchasing one, we can probably get the golf shop to order them for us. Please let me know if you would like one and we will try and combine the order. They normally run in the $350 range and I am pretty sure the golf shop would let us use our script toward the purchase.

Driver safety-Drive a golf cart as if driving an automobile.  Keep hands on the wheel.  Keep feet and legs in the cart.  Use the emergency brake.  Avoid sharp turns, excessive speeds, and any other risky moves. Manners and Behavior Leave the course in better condition than you found it. Treat other players the way you would like to be treated.  Play quickly and observe good golf etiquette.Show patience by waiting until others are out of range before playing.  When faced with a blind shot, have someone check to be sure the way ahead is clear.Lack of temper control can ruin a day on the course.  Golf is best when emotions are under control.  Visible and audible anger can hurt your game and is not in keeping with the game’s long history of good sportsmanship.  When club-throwing is involved, all that are nearby are at an unnecessary and inexcusable risk. Honesty Always play by the rules.  General Bites-Beware of bee and tick bites.  Avoid walking through woods and deep grass, especially with shorts.  Lyme Disease is still a prevalent disease and highly transmittable on the golf course.Cover up!-A hat, a skin protector, and plenty of fluids are highly recommended to combat the effects of sun and heat.Non-golfers, pets and very young children are at risk on the golf course.  It is not appropriate to take non-playing children or pets on a golf outing.No Mulligans!  Save extra shots for the practice tee.  Unaware players are easily hit by practice shots.  Stand well away and not ahead of a player making a shot.  Standing on the ball side rather than behind a player is the best etiquette.When attempting a high risk shot from trouble, let others know what you are planning to do.  Consider a safer shot if the club’s impact or a ricocheted ball could cause injury. Lightning Every year golfers become victims of lighning.  When a storm threatens, stop playing and leave the course.  No game is important enough to jeopardize one’s life unnecessarily.  Avoid open areas, water, metal, wire fences, overhead wires and power lines, isolated trees, elevated ground, maintenance equipment, and golf carts.Take shelter when you are unable to get off the golf course.  Find shelter (in order of preference) in a lighning/rain shelter, club house, maintenance building, or automobile.  When shelter is not available, seek dense woods or in low-lying ditches or bunkers.
