It’s a beautiful day out. The sun is shining, there’s not a cloud in the sky, and a gentle breeze is blowing through the trees that dot the golfing green. You’re enjoying a day out at the Waikoloa Village Golf Club with a group of your golf friends, and you prepare to send the ball flying across that sand pit that lies directly in front of you. As your golf club connects with the ball, it also catches an edge of the turf, tearing it away and flinging it about 10 feet to your left.

This is nothing new to the professionals at this big island golf course. After years of having golfers create divots in their bright green golf courses, Waikoloa Village Golf Club has several solutions for a quick divot repair. There are two courses of action available to you for fixing a divot at Waikoloa Village Golf Club — either filling the area with sand or retrieve the torn turf and set it back in place.

If you locate a sand-filled container in the golf cart you’re using, then you can use it to fill in any torn up areas. All you have to do is pour the sand into the gouged-out area on the green. Don’t overfill it; just add enough until it is level with the rest of the turf. Then use your foot to smooth it out and press it down firmly. Otherwise, retrieve the chunk of turf that was flung away during the swing and gently place it back in the divot.

In the end, though, it all depends on where you’re golfing. If you’re wondering what the regulations are at Waikoloa Village Golf Club, don’t hesitate to ask one of their staff members. This big island golf course is here to make your golf game as enjoyable as possible; they will be happy to provide the answers you’re looking for.
