From many cone - .menta .I ,have -reeeilted cit seems..that..both golfers and non -golfers enjoy this little lesson. This week we're going to look at the 10 Most Abused Rules and hopefully this will clear up many questions from both beginning and experienced players. I'm a stickler for the rules as anyone' who has played golf with me will tell you. Every time I go out on the course I • play "by the book". This is the only way I can play. The rules remain constant and therefore my games can be com- pared to each other because I haven't changed any of the basic rules by taking mulligans off the first tee, picking up balls near the hole, or rolling the ball to a good lie in the rough. A 44 1s a 44 and on a good day a 39 is a 39. I'm a coni- petitive golfer but I don't have to be playing in a tournament to be com- petitive. Every time I golf I'm competing against myself and the course. The only way I know how I'm doing is by playing by the same set of rules each time. Many golfers don't care about the rules. That's okay too. If you are just playing your own little game and com- peting with yourself, or if you're just out for a walk, some fresh air, and exercise, and you don't give a hoot what you shoot, well then you don't need to know the rules, the penalties nor the procedures. However, from my experience over the years with golfers, I've founay-anany players who say they don't Cate about the score sure do where they et a good one going. The only problem'tis determin- ing the accuracy of that • ".best round ever". In any case it's up to the golfer 10 know the rules if he's playing in a tour- nament because there's no referee out there blowing a ..whistle. I have a poster on my office door that we got from the Golf Digest people. In the .last few years I've distributed many of these posters to different area clubs. On the ,poster Hagar the Horrible is demonstrating the 10 most abused golf rules. The poster provides a colorful, humorous, and easy way to acquaint golfers with common errors in inter- preting some of the rules that come in to play most often. 1. Giving advice and indicating line of play. Asking what club a fellow - competitor or opponent used, or ,telling him how to execute a swing is not allow - .ed. Neither is touching the ,putting sur- face to indicate the line of play .when the player's ball is on :the green. You can not t uch art of with . ow band but youncan- kind of .object. (rules•8-1.and 8-2. Propping from .a cart path. Many .,players feel. they can .tease relief en either side of the path. ,Actually,the ,player has no c oice..ie must-droP within one dab - whichever of the nearest ,point of relief, no ;whichever side et the path that is - .even if it ..would mean ;dropping into an :wiplayable tie .in a ,hedge ,or bush. Of ,course, .in !this case moat ,golfers ,would . elect- .to play ;the ball from off the .path.

(Rule 26 4. Improving your lie 'or position by moving growing things beyond the limn .allowed. You cannot improve the position or lie of your ball, the area of your in- tended swing, or your line of play oy moving or bending anything growing or fixed, or moving or pressing .anythrnl' down with your club. The only exception: are when you are fairly taking your stance or actually making a stroke. Alar you cannot step behind your ball to im- prove your lie except on the teems. ground. Rule 13-2 5. Tamping down the line of putt. You are not permitted to remove everythurr on the line between your ball and the hole. You may repair ball marks and move loose impediments, but you cannot repair spike marks. Rule 16-1a. 6 Procedure for n lost ball. Slime. golfers .will drop a ball in the vicinity where they think the ball is lost and add a penalty stroke. When the ball is lost the player must go back and hit again from the point where he last played a shot, incurring a one -stroke penalty, IA if you lose your drive on. a hole you nius return to the tee and are hitting three Rule 27-1. (if you lose a ball in a water hazard you invoke the water hazard rule not the lost ball rule) 7. Taking relief from immovabh obstructions and ground under .repair A .common notion is that golfers art granted two club -lengths from the nearest point of relief in these situations. Actuar ly, you are allowed only one club -length once the nearest point of relief has been determined. Rules 24-2b and 25-1b 8. Playing a provisional ball. ,When a golfer hits .a pall and feels the ball may be lost or out of bounds, he often wil play .a provisional ball •right away. Pie should first wait for his fellow cpmpetitor or opponent to play his first shot (rule 10.3). Golfers also,are careless sometimes about .announcuig their intention for play- ing a provisional ball, They might say, "1 think 1°11 reload", ,which -dyes .not satisfy rule 27,2. The player should ;peke his in- tention clear, stating "I'm ,going to play .a pravisiollal ball." 9. Procedure for an Implayable he When a pall cooties to rest under a large bush, some golfers think they ,are ,allowed two club -ie gths from a point of rehef deteizrdned by the q ter .4 , ge of the bush This is .,wrung - if 'e ypr ,elects this option under ride „b e jgiust •measuire two cly , ngtais from the hall.
