Golf Rules & Etiquette

Ready Golf

On the Tee:

  • The player who is ready should tee off. Shorter hitters should hit first
  • Limit practice swings to two.
  • Limit “mulligans” to one per nine only. If you miss the ball or have a bad hit you can pick up and take your ball to the 100 marker.
  • Have an extra ball in your pocket and refrain from chatting when someone is hitting.

On the Fairways:

  • Proceed quickly to your ball – think about your club selection on the way there.
  • Watch each player’s shots to avoid losing golf balls and to save time in the search.
  • Don’t spend more than 1 minutes looking for your ball.
  • Throw your ball out of the rough and if hitting out of the sand throw out if you are not successful on the 2nd try.
  • When playing with carts drop your partner off at their ball with an extra club or two then proceed to your ball.

On the Green:

  • Take your pull or power cart to the path beside/behind the green and take your putter and/or wedge to the green.
  • Line up your putt as others are putting out. Ensure someone is putting at all times.
  • Limit practice strokes to two.

Etiquette

  • Courtesy and good manners on the course help everyone to have a good day.
  • Observe all course etiquette as noted on the back of scorecards.
  • Proper golf attire to be worn at all times. No blue jeans, cut-offs, or tank tops.
  • Do not play until the golfers ahead are safely out of range.
  • Don’t move or talk or stand too close while a golfer is playing his shot.
  • Remember the 3 r’s: rake traps, repair ball marks, replace divots.
  • Do not walk on the line of putt of other players.
  • Do not disturb other players with your shadow.
  • With a power cart, always stay at least 30 feet from greens and follow course signs.
  • Don’t write your score while you are still on the green. Wait until you get to the next tee box. Leave the green as soon as your foursome is finished.
  • Make sure your cell phone is on silent. It is poor etiquette to take a call or text while playing the round.

“Thank you for making it easy for me to golf – someone books my tee time, I have a choice of which evening/which course, someone arranges for other players for me to golf with, I simply show up!”

“Each time I go out I’m with such amazing ladies that are so much fun. It was a little intimidating at first being new to the city, and a ladies league, but you gals have taken care of making me feel so comfortable.”
