The Importance of the 90 Degree Rule in Golf: Preserve Turf and Enhance Play

Golfers love the convenience of zipping around the course in a golf cart, but many worry about the impact these vehicles have on the pristine fairways.

Enter the 90-degree rule, a simple yet effective guideline that ensures carts can be used without damaging the grass. This rule is essential for maintaining the quality of the course, especially after rainfall or when conditions are less than ideal.

The 90-degree rule requires carts to enter the fairway at a right angle from the cart path, minimizing the time spent driving on the turf.

This not only helps preserve the fairway but also keeps the game moving at a leisurely pace.
