How long does it take to play 18 holes? How much time does it take?

You should budget 45 minutes to 1 hour per person.

How long it takes to play a round depends on many factors.

  • Style of play
  • How many strokes you normally take
  • Concede distance

Tips to speed up your round

  • When in a group, have the next person be ready to hit while the current player is hitting.
  • Reduce the number of putts by shortening the concede distance.  Green concede is great for a speed round when you are tight on time!
  • Reduce your practice swings
  • Play from a shorter tee box
  • Play better golf! Stay out of bounds!

Pace of play is important on and off the course.
