Ballochmyle Golf Club's captain, William Flemming, has expressed his disappointment at damage to one of the course's greens.
An image was shared with the club appearing to show one of the greens dug up by tyre marks, with the police being contacted about the damage.
Members were unable to access the course earlier this week due to weather, which somebody thought served as an open invitation to ride a vehicle through the course, leaving heavy tyre marks on the grass.
Mr Flemming has said it was extremely disappointing to see something like this, but CCTV has now been checked and police are involved.
Posting on the club's Facebook page, he said: "Extremely disappointed to receive this image from Ballochmyle Golf Club Greens this morning!
"Paying members were not able to access the golf course yesterday as it was closed due to the overnight weather. This does not make the golf course an open playing field for others.
"The greens staff work hard to prepare the golf course as best they can for the beginning of the playing season.
"Winter months throw more than enough challenges and constraints without any unnecessary ones being put in front of them."
Mr Flemming added: "We welcome people passing through our facility but all we ask is a bit of respect for a facility that others pay to use as it is intended for.
"CCTV has been checked and Police have been notified.
"Sadly this is an all too familiar image from golf courses throughout Scotland, and most likely beyond, in recent times."
Police Scotland has been contacted for comment.
