Please please reopen courses. Golf can easily be safely played while maintaining social distancing. Some counties are now closing parks due to overcrowding at swing sets etc. and due to those closures outdoor activity of any kind is becoming difficult to find access to. Any chance to give citizens a chance to participate in recreation and give them a break from the current stresses we are all under is so needed right now

I am a member in New Jersey but also have a membership to a country club in South Carolina where the golf courses remain open but they do it with a lot of restrictions such as one person per cart and Summer doing walking only There is no bag handling It works out very well in other states such as South Carolina in Delaware.

Golf can be performed while maintaining social distancing. Reopening will reduce stress among the population & reduce the economic damage to our state.

No more dangerous than walking in the park or on the beach.

You can golf and practice social distancing very very easily. Single riders in carts, walking only, raised flags and wipe or spray down the carts after each use

Social distancing can be accomplished while playing a round

15 minutes between tee times sounds good. Keep the NJ courses open

Maybe add that all golfers should have a mask or other nose and mouth covering to prevent release of saliva and small particles into thr air. They do stay afloat in stagnant air for a bit.

Please open courses. We absolutely need the courses open. We can walk. Maintain 6 ft of separation. It is very helpful to many people.

Please allow walking only courses to open. No driving range or areas where you cannot control 6 feet. Please!!!!
