Shoes in Clubhouse! | Golf Monthly

Its up to the individual clubs to decide their rules.

However, you've got to remember that the course gets sprayed with various chemicals at different times of the year. With the best will in the world does everyone thorughly clean their shoes when they come off the course? Some will do a great job and others will barely touch them.

So do you want xx number of members walking potentially caustic chemicals into the carpet and maybe significantly shortening its life? Do you want an increase in fees because of the need to replace the carpet on a more regular basis?

The rule about golf shoes in golf clubs isn't just about the dirt...
