Rules of Bedroom Golf
1, Each player shall furnish his own equipment for play. Normally
one club & two balls.
2, Play on the course must be approved by the owner of the hole.
3, Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole &
keep the balls out of the hole.
4, For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft. Course owners have the right to check shaft stiffness before play
begins.
5, Course owners have 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 upon arrival
at the course. The experienced player will normally take the time to
admire the entire course, with special attention to the 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 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 the 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 a course is in shape to be played at
all times. Some players may be embarrassed if the find the course to
be temporarily under repair. Players are advised to be extremely
tactful in this situation. More advanced players will find alternate
means of play when this is the case.
12, Players are advised to obtain the course owner'* 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 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.
