bedroom golf rules

[Skinner]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

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.

 

 

4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft. Course

owners are permitted to check shaft stiffness before play begins.

 

 

5. Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length 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 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 th! e entire course with special attention to well formed

bunkers.

 

 

8. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have played ,

or are currently playing, to the owner of the course being played. Upset

course owners have been known to damage players equipment for this

reason.

 

 

9. Players are encouraged to bring proper rain gear for their own

protection.

 

 

10. Players should ensure themselves 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 on what they considered to be a private course.

 

 

11. Players should not assume a course is in shape for play at all

times. Some players may be embarrassed 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 t! he case.

 

 

12. The course owner is responsible for manicuring and pruning any bush

around the hole to allow for improved viewing of, alignment with, and

approach to the hole.

 

 

13. Players are advised to obtain the course owners permission before

attempting to play the back nine.

 

 

14. Slow play is encouraged. However, players should be prepared to

proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily, at the course owners

request.

 

 

15. It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to play

the same hole several times in one match.

3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and

keep the balls out.

Unless the course owner is in to that.
