    Hi

    So from GUI guidelines one thing is unclear to me.

    Does open to "visitors" in phase 3 (29th June) mean courses will be open to walk in green fees?

    Or is it visits from members of other clubs i.e. competitions, societies etc?

    From a casual pay as you go golfer

    Thanks

    Green fees is how we read it.

    There seems to be a distinction between guests and visitors is the way I read it. Guests will be June 8. Visitors later.

    I'm really only trying to read between the lines here but I would assume guest means someone brought along by a member. Visitors then would be anyone aka green fees.

    Plenty of places are already allowing guests already though right? I played Powerscourt as a guest on the 14th and Castlewarden on Monday just gone. And have had guests out in Blessington as well.

    I don't think there's a hard and fast rule on when guests are to be allowed, think it more depends on if clubs themselves feel the time sheets are open enough to allow non-members to play. For example I know of a few clubs still not allowing guests or only at very specific times & dates.

    Worth pointing out that there seems to be plenty of deals around at the moment. Old head for example is €130 for guests until end of June (and may be extended) so I'd be reaching out to clubs and seeing if there is any deals going for GUI members.
