THE RULES OF BEDROOM GOLF
|
|
|
|
1. Each player shall furnish his own equipment for play - normally one club and
|
|
two balls.
|
|
|
|
2. Play on a course must be approved by the owner of the hole.
|
|
|
|
3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole, and keep the
|
|
balls out of the hole.
|
|
|
|
4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft. Course owners
|
|
are permitted to check shaft for stiffness before play begins.
|
|
|
|
5. Course owners reserve the right to restrict the length of the club to avoid
|
|
damage to the hole.
|
|
|
|
6. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until the
|
|
course owner is satisfied that the play is complete. Failure to do so may
|
|
result in being denied permission to play the course again.
|
|
|
|
7. It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately upon arrival
|
|
at the course. The experienced player will normally take time to admire the
|
|
entire course, with special attention to the well formed bunkers.
|
|
|
|
8. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have played on, or
|
|
are currently playing, to the owner of the course being played. Upset course
|
|
owners have been known to damage a player's equipment for this reason.
|
|
|
|
9. Players are encouraged to have proper rain gear along, just in case.
|
|
|
|
10. Players should assure thenselves that their match has been properly
|
|
scheduled, particularly when a new course is being played for the first time.
|
|
Previous players have been known to become irate if they discover someone else
|
|
playing what they consider to be a private course.
|
|
|
|
11. Players should not assume a course is in shape for play at all times. Some
|
|
players may be embarressed if they find the course to be temporarily under
|
|
repair. Players are advised to be extremely tactful in this situation. More
|
|
advanced players will find alternative means of play when this is the case.
|
|
|
|
12. Players are advised to obtain course owner's permission before attempting
|
|
to play the back nine.
|
|
|
|
13. Slow play is encouraged: however
|
|
players should be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily,
|
|
at the course owner's request.
|
|
|
|
14. It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to play the same
|
|
hole several times in one match.
|
|
|
|
15. the course owner will be the sole judge of who is the best player.
|
|
|
|
**NB**
|
|
Players are advised to think twice before considering membership at a given
|
|
course. Additional assessments may be levied by the course owner and the rules
|
|
are subject to change. For this reason, many players prefer to continue to play
|
|
several different courses.
