My friends and I are 15 and going golfing tomorrow. Do we need to be 16 etc? The website doesnt specifically state how old. Also, are you supposed to book online? Because we still aren't 100% and we figured we could just book when we get there. Any advice is appreciated.

  1. If you are residents in the state of CT, the official age for driving or renting a golf cart is 18 and you must have a state driver's license to drive.A learner's permit or restricted age license does not meet the requirement which absolves the club from liability.


  2. you are supposed to call ahead and reserve a time. you don't have too, but it can save a two to three hour wait. You need to have a liscense to rent a cart. Don't try otherwise. It is disrespectful, and this is a gentlemans game.  

  3. You will probably be OK as long as you have a credit card with you. They would likely want some body to be financially responsible for the golf cart. You might want to call them and ask about the age thing. I am sure that different course have different policies.

  4. For renting a riding cart, it varies depending on the course you are playing.  Sometimes it's 16 and sometimes, it's 18, but you would definitely need to have a driver's license.

    Regarding tee times, you can book online for weekend times in the morning.  Other than that, it's best if you call even just 30 minutes to an hour before you're expecting to play, and you'll at least know in advance if you'll get right out or be forced to wait.  And trust me, the staff in the pro shop will appreciate you calling ahead, even if it is just 30 minutes in advance.  It gives them a chance to better accomodate you when you do arrive.

  5. You have to have your full licence or be 18 years old. (that's if you live in Australia).

    Have a good one...

  6. just say you are 16 they dont check your license.

    you do not have to book online. but call just to make sure
