GOLF:
Omni PGA Frisco Resort is home to ample play options, including two 18-hole championship golf courses, collectively known as Fields Ranch—Fields Ranch East designed by Gil Hanse, and Fields Ranch West designed by Beau Welling. It includes a two-acre putting course and entertainment area (The Dance Floor), and a par-3, 10-hole short course (The Swing).
ATTIRE:
Golfers are expected to be appropriately attired in slacks or hemmed walking shorts. Fashions designed specifically for golf are acceptable. Men's and women's fashion collarless golf shirts and women's sleeveless golf shirts are acceptable. Blue jeans and denims are NOT considered appropriate attire. Joggers and gym shorts are NOT allowed. Jagged or ribbed/soled jogging footwear, track spikes, or rubber-spiked shoes (other than those specifically designed for golf) may NOT be worn while using the golf facilities. Non-metal spikes or soft spikes are mandatory at courses and practice facilities.
RULES:
All golfers must adhere to the rules set by the golf professional. The expected pace of play is four hours and fifteen minutes. Course marshals have full discretion to help accommodate this pace. Golfers should arrive at the pro shop 30 minutes prior to tee time (12:30PM for our event). Each car/pair will also include a forecaddie. This individual will run alongside the cart, find lost balls, clean the clubs and balls, grab the pin (all of the not so fun housekeeping work). The native grass can get significant, and this helps keep pace of place so that everyone finishes on time.
GRATUITY:
Arvest will pay gratuity in the amount of $30 per player for the forecaddies, as this is the minimum amount suggested. You are welcome, and invited, to tip your forecaddie more, out of pocket, at your own discretion.
PRO SHOPS:
All courses offer a full-service pro shop featuring a wide range of golf attire and equipment. Shirts, hats, golf balls, golf clubs, accessories, and other merchandise are available with both the Field Ranch logo and the Omni PGA Frisco Resort logo.
CLUB STORAGE:
Golf clubs are to be stored in your room prior to and after play. If you would like them stored with the hotel, the expense will be paid by the individual and NOT reimbursable. Before the business meetings on Monday morning, you may take your golf clubs to the concierge to be transported to the club for your tee time. Following play, clubs will be transported from the clubhouse to the resort (upon request).
CLUB RENTALS:
If you need to rent clubs, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can include this in our golf team lineup. Clubs are $100, and must be prepaid by the individual in the pro shop prior to the event.
SHIP STICKS:
With Ship Sticks, door-to-door transportation of golf clubs to or from any address in the world can be made in advance. Group shipping rate are available. Visit https://shipsticks.com/ to learn more.
FOOD & BEVERAGE:
Beverages and food on the course are to be billed to the players at their own expense, and are not reimbursable.
