As my shoes are in my locker then I change them by the locker in the changing room
When away at another course I change in the changing room

From December to May I changed my shoes in the car park. My club then offered me a locker in the changing rooms and now change in the locker room.

Is the correct answer

Well answer no.1 is wrong because the car park is where you park your car.
Answer 3 is also wrong as I don't have Addicross shoes.
Which leaves answer no.2.....the changing room for changing your shoes and clothing.
Those who change their shoes in the car park will often bang the soles together to get rid of the mud, leaving a whole line of mud in the carpark.
Overnight rain makes the mud very slippery, someone slips, sues the club and you get another £100 on your membership to pay for the damages awarded.

I either already have them on (spikeless) or change them in the caddy room when I get my golf bag out. Should I arrive at another course without having them on, I change them in the car park. I normally don't bother going to the changing room for this.

Mmmm....maybe set up another poll -Where do you park your car...?😕
I change in the changing rooms as that's what the club requests and I see no reason to go against that.
It isn't to protect the car park or sort the Ruffians from the Posh...
It's so people go into the changing rooms as that's where most of the notice boards are....

While leaving mud all over the changing room and in the club house hallway while getting there is fine? Seriously, this is the stupidest argument I ever heard. Most golf courses over here have a cleaning area somewhere beside the car park with a compressor where you can easily rid your shoes and trolley of dirt and mud. Works a treat.

The same compressor is mainly by the entrance to the clubhouse and the same carpets in the clubhouse are also hoovered on a daily basis as are the ones in the changing rooms.
A lot of clubs don't allow you to change in the car park - heard various reasons , like encouraging people to go into the clubhouse after and spend money behind the bar and also to stop as Bob says people smacking their shoes all over the car park making a mess.
These days clubs allow the spikeless in the bar.
But the right answer to the poll should be - I change my shoes where the club deem it acceptable to change them , if they say don't change them in the car park then don't.

Car park. Get trolley out of car, get bag out of car and put on trolley, pull shoes out of bag and put them on, then walk up to the pro shop to pay.

I wear my spikeless adidas to the golf course but I change them in the changing room after golf :smirk:
I don't really mind where folks choose to do it... as long as they don't turn up in manky shoes

So do you sweep up all the mud from trolleys? And if mud falls off shoes before someone walks to the changing room to change them?
Or the mud that cars bring in

I totally agree with that and if the course I am visitng has a policy to not change shoes in the car par, I obviously won't. All I am saying is that: "don't change shoes in the car park, because that way the car park gets muddy" is a stupid argument.

We have a cleaning station with aire gun etc and brushes etc to clean your shoes ad trolley. you have to pass it to get to the changing park.

I normally change in the car park tbh. I wouldn't at top notch courses like RSG, sunningdale etc
Even been know to pull the doors closed on the back of the van and change whilst doors closed in the back, at some clubs that say you cant change in the car park, slightly naughty of me I know:mmm:

In the car park at my home course, but when away at other peoples courses you have to respect the requirements and regulations, so if need be in the changing room.
