Golf Rules and Regulations

There is no rule saying how high or low the loft of any club can be. Someone at my golf school has an 11 degree driver since he cannot hit the ball very high.

Depends on your definition of legal. I don't think the local DA will have a problem with it but the head of the local PGA chapter might have something to say about it.

He can if he wants to, but he could be the butt of many jokes! If it is general play, he can tee off from wherever he wants to, but if it is an official competition he has to tee off from the stipulated tee box. If he doesn't feel he hits the ball far enough he could simply hit off the forward tees, but if he really wants to hit off the ladies tees nothing can stop him.

There is no way that they can cut you. Your score will appear as DQ so they can not cut you, as there was no score. It's definitely not above board if they cut you.

* Replay the previous shot * Stroke and distance, keeping the point where the ball entered the hazard between you and the flag, drop the ball on either side of the hazard, no nearer the hole. * Two club length drop, from nearest point of relief, no nearer the hole. All the above options carry a one stroke penalty.

He gets relief from an animal as an Outside Agency. A drop would be allowed without penalty. It cannot be closer to the hole. If the ball is in a hazard, the drop would be allowed either in the same hazard or another similar hazard, as long as it isn't closer to the hole.

In stroke play it would be known as a non return, as the player has not completed the hole, by holing out, in other words they have picked up. In a stableford competition it means they have exceeded the score allowed under the points system and would get nothing for the hole, also known as a ding.

I am not sure I understand the question in regards to the grass. If the first one is marked ground under repair you are entitled to relief, of one club length. The other one must be played as it lies, if this means the ball is in the bunker, you must not ground the club whether there sand or not.

The top edge of the actual cup, be it metal or plastic must be sunk at least one inch into the ground. So technically there should be an inch of earth above the cup.

Usually at the bottom, there are two spaces, one for the marker (the person who marked the card) and one for the player (the person whose scores are recorded) If either or both of these is not filled in the player shall be disqualified, it is their responsibility to check the card is correct before handing it in.

It's based on the size of the first known hole cutting tool, formed using excess drainpipe from the Musselburgh Golf Club building. It was used from 1829 at Musselburgh Old Course. The dimension was adopted in 1893 by the Royal & Ancient and has been used ever since.

The grip where the fingers of one hand are on top of the other is called an "interlocking grip." This grip is commonly used in sports like golf and tennis, where one hand's fingers interlace with the other for better control and stability of the racket or club. It helps create a more secure hold and can enhance the player's performance.

When a ball lands in a bunker filled with cut brush, the player generally does not receive relief. According to the Rules of Golf, areas inside a bunker are considered part of the bunker, and players must play the ball as it lies unless there are specific circumstances that warrant relief, such as an obstruction or safety issue. However, players can typically remove loose impediments in the bunker, provided they do not disturb their ball. If the condition of the bunker is deemed unplayable by the local rules, players may need to consult the specific regulations in play.

In Australia, the highest golf handicap a player can have is 54. This limit is set by Golf Australia and is part of the World Handicap System, which aims to provide a consistent way to measure a golfer's playing ability. Handicaps are designed to allow players of different skill levels to compete fairly against one another.

In golf, if a player is disqualified from a competition, their score typically does not count towards the eclectic competition. The eclectic format usually requires players to complete all rounds in order for their scores to be eligible. Disqualification means the player did not complete the round under the rules, so their scores would not be considered valid for the eclectic. Always check the specific rules of the competition, as they can vary.

Check local rules for full ruling. But the official rule is, if the sprinkler head affects your stance, or is within two club lengths of your line of play you are entitled to a free drop. You take your free drop as normal, within one club length from the nearest point of relief, no closer to the hole.

It is called the tee box. The ladies tee off from a line somewhere forward of the men's line. You are allowed to go two club lengths back from a line drawn from one marker to the other inside of the tee box. There are normally four different tee boxes in golf, White and Blue usually being Mens tees, and Red and Yellow normally ladies or seniors tees.
