Sessions are blocked in 50 minute increments with 10 minutes between. You can block out up to three consecutive tee times for 2 hours and 50 minutes. All tee times are on a first come first served basis.
Members can hold up to three (3) 50-minute sessions. As soon as use a time and have less than three you can book your next time. This policy ensures access to all members and reduces no-shows.
They work the same. Monthly members just have the ability to book unlimited time each month and their membership is billed monthly. Punch pass members have a limited number of sessions they can book and the sessions expire after 6 months.
So if you want to use it a few times a week the monthly membership is better. If you want to use a few times a month the punch pass is better.
