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 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 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 a players equipment for this reason.

9. Players are encouraged to have proper rain gear along, just in case.

10. Players should assure 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 what they consider to be a private course.

11. Players should not assume that a course is in shape for play at all
times. Some players may be embarassed if they find the course 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 the course owners 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 owners 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.

** 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.
