At the Home of Golf - Augustana Women's Golf

Most golf courses have a very limited supply of golf carts, and reserve them only for golfers with very serious medical conditions. A doctor’s note is often required to reserve a cart for the day of play. Often times the course will require a caddy to drive the golf cart. TFC is happy to assist in the reservation process of golf carts for those who require them.                                                        

Pull carts are typically £5.00 and are available at each golf course without requiring a reservation. Golfers requiring a pull cart may simply rent one through the Caddie Master or Pro-Shop upon arrival to the golf course.                                                        

Most golf courses have a very limited number of clubs available to rent. Rental clubs should be requested in advance to ensure availability on the day of play. The quality and brand of rental golf clubs varies from course to course.

Many courses have handicap limits and/or require a handicap certificate to be produced when you check in with the starter. The limits are typically max handicap for Men is 24 and Women is 36.                                                        

All golfers are expected to arrive in suitable golfing attire. Tailored shorts are allowed on the courses and clubhouse surrounds. Smart casual wear is accepted dress code in most clubhouses. Jeans, trainers, and round neck tee shirts are not allowed on the courses or in the clubhouse.                                                        

Weather in Scotland is often unpredictable. Unless there are unsafe conditions for the golfer or the golf course, golf will be played in wind or rain. Should a round be canceled or postponed, TFC will work with the group and the course to reschedule or refund the greens fee.                                                        

Most golf courses do not have full driving ranges. Putting and chipping greens are often available for use near the first tee.                                                        

Accommodations are based on double occupancy. Twin or Double configuration is available. Single rooms are available upon request. Single rooms are subject to availability and will incur a supplement.

A valid USA PASSPORT is required for all international TFC trips. Depending on your destination and official country of residence you may require a VISA.                                                        

Most major mobile phone providers offer a day pass for you to utilize your existing phone and data plans while traveling abroad. This pass can vary in cost from $10-20 per day – please contact your carrier for the exact details and pricing. WiFi is available in most hotels and restaurants.                                                        

Make sure you notify your Bank and Credit Card company that you will be traveling outside the US. It is good practice to take cash out of an ATM once you arrive to get the best exchange rate in the moment. Most credit card companies now offer credit cards with no foreign transaction fees. If you have a card that offers no foreign transaction fees it is best to utilize your card for most purchases. Please note that VISA and MASTERCARD are widely accepted for credit card purchases, however AMERICAN EXPRESS is not as widely accepted in the smaller towns and villages we travel to.
