Golf Fix

The label golf

The label is meant a set of basic rules that inform the beginners and advanced golfers on the course to take the pleasure to meet each on a golf course. You must show consideration towards your partner at all times. Take a moment to discover what are the main rules governing golf etiquette.

The spirit of the game

Unlike many other sports, golf is played without a referee. The game relies on your integrity as a player and your discipline. The spirit of golf is respect, courtesy and honesty.

LABEL GENERAL

Try to always keep in mind the word label and stick it on the course and the clubhouse.
* Respect the dress code club
* Check the condition of your shoes and make sure they do not have nails in the soles. The nails are now forbidden in most clubs because they damage the course, especially the greens.
* Enter your starter or presence in the clubhouse before you present it on the tee number one.
* Control your temper and do not throw your clubs in no time and did not hit the ground with your club head.
* Follow the path, do not throw garbage or cigarette butts, do not spit, raise your divots … In short, leave the trail in the state where you found it.

SECURITY

* When you run a practice shot or you play your ball, make sure that nobody is endangered, or behind you or in front of you.
* Do not play until the players ahead of you are far enough
* Cry “BALL” if there is any risk that you touch someone. Be careful, you cannot always see the other players, so if your ball slices and it is featured on another fairway, shouting for security.
* Seek shelter you when there’s thunder, the rules of golf have foreseen this scenario.

RATE GAME

A game too slow affects all players in your team and the parties behind you. Make an effort to keep pace of play that will not bother anyone. If you’re too slow, here are some tips for you a little more rhythm:
* Avoid doing lots of test shots, one or two will suffice.
* Be ready to play when it’s your turn, with your glove hand for example.
* Go to your ball as soon as security permits you.
* If you want to determine the distance from your ball to the hole, do it while you walk to your ball.
* When you arrive on the green, put your bag in the place that you borrow to go on the next hole.
* Study your line of putt while others are doing it without disturbing those who will putter.
* When the hole is finished, leave the green immediately.
* Mark the scores early in the next hole and not leave the green.
* If there is a chance that your ball is lost or out of bounds, play a provisional order to avoid having to return to where you played if you do not remember.
* If a player has to find his ball, help them to save time. If you put too much time, leave the party behind you pass you.

RESPECT FOR OTHERS

* Do not move, speak or do not gesticulate while another player plays.
* On the tee, play when it’s your turn only.
* Do not stand too close when a player plays or too close to the hole when putte.
* Stay on or near the putting green until all players have finished putter.
* If you mark the card of another player, note the score after each hole and check with him. Remember all the same that is you (the marker) who have the final say in disputes over a hole.
* Do not get on the course of electronic gear that could interfere with others and are not useful (eg walkman for young ) and turn off your cell phone.

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE ON THE FIRST TEE

* Arrive 10 minutes before good way to have time to leave your clubs and whatever else you need the car and proceed to “check in”.
* Know your disability
* Pay attention to the indications given by the starter

ON THE FIRST TEE

* Be at least initially five minutes before your departure time.
* If you do not know your partner enter you in their shaking hands
* Would much to your players before playing
* Advertise the mark and number of ball you play. Do this whenever you use a new ball, ball provisionally included.
* Depart good colors to start.

ON THE TEE

* Avoid removing divots on the departure, including making a first attempt. If possible, make your test shots outside teeing ground.

* It is not recommended to replace the divots on departure. The “greenkeeper” that regularly attends to in principle.

* Do not bring your truck on the tee.

ON THE FAIRWAY AND IN THE ROUGH

* Avoid removing divots by running your test shots.

* If you remove a Divot, return it to its place very carefully.

IN THE BUNKER

* Do not jump in the bunker. Enter and exit through the low side of the bunker.

* Before leaving the bunker, rake the sand to erase all traces you left and if needed, rake also those of others.

* If there is no rake near the bunker, use a club and level the sand as possible. Indeed, if a player lands in one of your footprints in the bunker, there is no rule that states can move without penalty, and he will be severely penalized because of you.

* After having deleted all your tracks and those of others, place the rake outside the bunker, but close to it so there is minimal chance possible that a ball of another player is arrested by rake. In general, place it on the side, parallel to the bunker.

ON THE GREEN

* Do not place your bag or cart on the green.
* If your ball is pitched on the green, look for the pitch and repair it with a fork.
* Do not damage the green with your shoes, dragging their feet for example.
* Do not walk on the line of putt other players.
* Do not stand too close to the hole where the other players puttent.
* Do not remove the bullet hole with the head of your putter.
* Do not lean on your putter when you’re on the green.
* Handle with care the flag and replace it carefully in the hole, without discarding.

TROLLEYS AND CARTS

* Follow the rules of the club where you play on the wagons and buggies.
* Do not ride on the green with your cart or your cart.
* A golf cart is not a race car. Drive with care, especially on hills and curves. Do not skid.
* Once you immobilize the cart, snap the brake (pedal fully pressed the pedal in general).
* Do not exceed the permitted number of passengers in a golf cart.
