  • If a player tees off from more than one club length behind the tee area, the player receives a one-stroke penalty and has to forfeit his car to the state
  • A three-shot penalty will be issued to anyone caught enjoying themselves
  • A ball at rest should not be disturbed, as it is sleeping
  • Players must finally give up search for ball after 72 hours
  • If a player is caught beating his wife or kids with his golf clubs, he takes a two-stroke penalty
  • Partners may share clubs, but not during the same swing
  • Your little sister gets to pick the red ball if you got to play with the red ball last time
  • Putter may be used like a pool cue to crack up other golfers only once per round; after that the joke gets old and the player should come up with something else
  • Players will be disqualified for using full-sized pencil on scorecard

Obviously, I am too serious this evening. I may try again later.

Make sure you know the rules related to the red and yellow stakes. This can really save you a stroke or two in some situations. For example, if you have hit your shot into either a water hazard (yellow) or a lateral water hazard (red), you have options on where you can drop the ball if you are not playing from the hazard. Of course, this costs you one stroke for the drop, but you have options on where you drop it. Most folks are familiar with the 2 club length rule for red stakes, but this may leave you dropping the ball in some really deep stuff or almost unplayable terrain. You have the option for either colored stakes to drop the ball on a straight line that is drawn between the flagstick and the first point of entry into the hazard. When you draw this imaginary line from the flagstick back across the entry point, you can continue that line further away from the flagstick as far as you want to go. This choice obviously will cause you to drop the ball further away from the flagstick but it very likely could give you a drop into a much more desirable lie, potentially the fairway. This may allow you to hit a better shot onto the green and make the putt since you were able to hit from a better lie.

This coming season I'll be getting back into competitive golf, I didn't feel as I would be good enough, and this year I feel ready. I have been on USGAs site and quizing myself so I remember the rules and such so I don't take strokes on easy stuff so I came to you THP. I figured why not get everyone to add a rule or two that I(or everyone) should know and it can be about anything from showing up late to a tee time(which I believe is a two stroke penalty) to 14 clubs in the bag.

Anything would help as I just need a refresher- Especially on lost balls and the different colored stakes and when another ball should be dropped and where.
Thank you
Apparently its illegal to gently nudge your ball out from behind a tree with your foot. This makes golf so much harder.

When can you have more than 14 clubs in your bag (during play) and not break any rules????

If you use the same club for every shot, including tee and on the green, deduct 3 shots from that hole's score.
