CANCELLATION forever of the
WARTS - Golfing - Events
Due to the "new needs and requirements" of all the courses, I've chosen to discontinue WARTS golfing.
I have decided to let this rest in peace for 2020
Many accomplishment from my p.o.v. were done from up to 50+ golfers at special events (such as Quarry Oaks and Iron Horse to ONLY modified shotgun starts some years) for the WARTS golfers. Started by George Schabloske and Tom Schulte in 2000 and then administered by Steve Miller in 2002, it was a fun 18 years.
I'll leave the 2020 schedule which might have worked for it not the Covid-19 virus and ALL course needs to book one week in advance (which did not work for my old system notices out on Thursday, and Final roster by Monday and then notify the course).
The course now want only a WEEK in advance and with no prearranged schedule with maybe show or no shows eliminated and unknown numbers - I can't blame them and recent years WARTS has shown a decline in WARTS golfers attendance.
FUN while it lasted - now you can book your OWN schedule and course.
I'll leave this page active YET will not be sending out emails for future golf dates.

New 2019 SENIOR Players golf rules ...
submitted by a retired department manager
RULE CHANGES IN EFFECT FOR...GOLFERS AGE 70+
Rule 9.k.34(a): If a tree is between the ball and the hole, and the tree is deemed to be younger than the player, then the ball can be moved without penalty. This is so because this is simply a question of timing; when the player was younger, the tree was not there so the player is being penalized because of his age.
Rule 1.a.5 - A ball sliced or hooked into the Rough shall be lifted and placed on the Fairway at a point equal to the distance it carried or rolled into the Rough with no penalty. The senior player should not be penalized for tall grass which ground keepers failed to mow.
Rule 2.d.6 (B) - A ball hitting a tree shall be deemed NOT to have hit the tree.
This is simply bad luck and luck has no place in a scientific game. The senior player must estimate the distance the ball would have traveled if it had not hit the tree, and play the ball from there.
Rule 3.B.3(G) - There shall be no such thing as a lost ball. The missing ball is on or near the course and will eventually be found and pocketed by someone else, thereby making it a stolen ball. The senior player is not to compound the felony by charging himself with a penalty.
Rule 4.c.7(h) - If a putt passes over a hole without dropping, it is deemed to have dropped. The Law of Gravity supersedes the Rules of Golf.
Rule 5. - Putts that stop close enough to the cup that they could be blown in, may be blown in. This does not apply to balls more than three inches from the Hole. No one wants to make a mockery of the game.
Rule 6.a.9(k) - There is no penalty for so-called “out of bounds.” If penny-pinching golf course owners bought sufficient land, this would not occur. The senior player deserves an apology, not a penalty.
Rule 7.G.15(z) - There is no penalty for a ball in a water hazard, as golf balls should float. Senior players should not be penalized for any shortcomings of the manufacturers.
Rule 8.k.9(S) - Advertisements claim that golf scores can be improved by purchasing new golf equipment. Since this is financially impractical for many senior players, one-half stroke per hole may be subtracted for using old equipment.
Please advise all your senior friends of these important rule changes and keep multiple copies in your golf bag. Those not following the rules need to be provided a copy. Golf is.... above all.... a game of integrity.
