Basic Rules

Before Hitting The Ball

All golfers play from the same tee block.

The ball must be placed on the special tee for every shot.

For fairway shots, the tee can be moved up to two club lengths in any direction to avoid cluttered terrain or large obstacles without penalty.

At any time, the club may be used as a rake to groom the area around the tee or putting cup to allow for an easier shot.

A player may choose to putt the ball at any time.

When putting, the tee is optional.

After Hitting The Ball

Players are allowed three minutes maximum to find the ball. If the ball is not found within three minutes, it is considered lost.

If a ball lands outside the bounds of the course, it is automatically considered lost.

A lost ball must by replaced with one stroke penalty.

The ball may be played anywhere along the flight path of the lost ball.

If the ball of an opponent interferes with line of the player's ball, anywhere on the course, the player can request that the opponent mark his/her ball.
