the rules of bedroom golf

[briggie]

The rules of bedroom golf:

1. Each player shall furnish their own equipment -
normally one club and two balls.

2. Playing 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
stiff shaft.course owners are permitted to check
the club before play begins.

5. The object of the game is to take as many strokes
as necessary until the course owner is satisfied
you are complete. Failure to do so may result in
being denied playing the course again.

6. It is considered bad etiquette to begin playing
the course immediately upon arrival at the course.
The experienced player will normally take time to
admire the course layout, paying special attention
to the well formed bunkers.

7. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses
they have played, or are currently playing. Upset
course owners have been known to damage a players
equipment for this reason.

8. The players are advised to obtain the course owners
permission before attempting to play the back nine.

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

10. A player should not assume a course is in shape for
play at all times. Many courses close for a short
period each month.

11. Slow play is encouraged. However, players should
be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace, at least
temporarily, at the course owner's request.

12. It is considered outstanding performance, time
permitting, to play the same hole several times
each month.
