What we’re about
This group is for people who enjoy golf, are beginners or better, yet who get more enjoyment from the people they play with than from playing the perfect game. It’s a relaxed group where scoring is optional, but a basic understanding of golf etiquette, especially keeping pace with the group ahead, is a must. This is not for competition, it is meant for those who want to have fun and play social golf and get to know new people to enjoy the game. We enjoy playing different courses each week, and try to play most of the courses in the Rochester area (and beyond) each year.
We are not a teaching or coaching group for those looking to learn, but all skill levels are welcome. You can play 9 or 18 holes (just let the organizer know when you get there). We have occasional social events as well as golfing. Members are encouraged to suggest courses to play, outings, etc.
We usually play Wednesday and Saturday, around noon, and have 2 or more foursomes. Members are free to organize other days and/or times as well if that is desired.
Dues: There is a 30 day grace period after joining the group before any dues are required. Notice will be provided by MeetUp. For the 2025 season, dues are $14 annually and pay for the MeetUp fee. Each member pays a fee each season directly to MeetUp via credit or debit card. Any extra money left over after annual MeetUp dues can go toward a get together or to reduce member dues for the following season.
Membership: At any given time, the organizer can remove a member that has repeated no-shows, or whose behavior has not been deemed appropriate.
IMPORTANT - Group Rules and Expectations:
- MUST HAVE a profile with a REAL & IDENTIFIABLE PICTURE OF YOUR FACE so we are not guessing when meeting people at the golf course. REQUESTS TO JOIN WITHOUT a clear identifiable face picture WILL NOT BE APPROVED.
- Please try to sign up for a golf outing 2 days prior to the event. We may need to make reservations for tee times, and will need to know how many. Once we have tee time(s), an outing may be opened back up for additional people to sign up (if we have 6 and get 2 tee times, we can then open it up to add 2 more, for example).
- We understand that plans can change. If you cannot make an event, please change your RSVP status, even if the meetup is about to start or has started. REPEAT OFFENDERS WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP AFTER 3 NO-SHOWS. "3 strikes you are out rule".
- Please be punctual as we will have tee times to keep. Show up and be ready to go AT LEAST 20 minutes before the tee time. As a courtesy to the course, we cannot wait if you are late.
- Each member is responsible for paying for their own golf. Please do not pre-pay any golf fees or make any pre-paid online reservations. If you do, the group is not responsible for any lost money. Pre-paid fees are the responsibility of the person who made the advance reservation, and those who signed up and committed to golfing. Anyone that owes money will be expected to reimburse in a timely fashion, or will be removed from the group.
- The group is not liable in any way for any monetary loss or any injury that may be incurred at one of our outings. Golf is not inherently dangerous, but there are some risks being on a golf course.
