Some Etiquette points are further illustrated by following the links
shown.
Please ...
1 - TROLLEYS / BAGS
Please keep your trolleys and your golf bags away from the greens
and tees
2 - PITCH MARKS
Repair all pitch marks on the greens. Every shot will leave a pitch
mark of some description so ensure you carry a pitch mark repairer
with you
3 -
BUNKERS
Please rake the bunkers after you have played from them. No
one likes to find their ball at the bottom of someone's footprints
in the sand and more difficult to play than should be necessary
4 -
SWINGING YOUR CLUBS
Golfers - Always ensure you have plenty of space before attempting
to swing your club. A serious injury could result if you hit
someone.
Playing Partners - Be careful where you stand as you do not want to
get hit on the backswing!
Ensure that all players in the group ahead are out of range before
you play. If necessary, ensure you shout 'FORE' to warn anyone of a
wayward shot.
5 - LINE
OF PUTT
If you stand on the line of someone's putt, you will make an
'impression' in the green which may throw the other player's putt
off line. Always walk around or step over the line of putt when
marking your ball.
6-
SHADOWS
Watch where you shadows are when someone is trying to putt or play
their shot. When you move your shadow does and it can be
distracting.
7 -
FLAG
Ensure you put the flag back in the hole when you leave the green.
8 -
SLOW PLAY
Keep up with the group in front as best as possible. Remember the
Tiger rules are there to help you keep up with the pace of play.
8 -
COURTESY TO OTHERS
- Do not RUN on the golf course
- Ensure you are quiet while others are playing their shots so
that they can concentrate
- Always be courteous to your fellow players during the round and
at the end of your round take off your hat and shake hands
Most of this is common sense but by following the above you will
ensure that everyone on the course enjoys their golf and you will earn
the respect of all who watch you play.
Thanks !
