Golf Etiquette
By: Jeff Austin
The rulebook has a lot in it that you should know, but you dont have to memorize it, keep a copy in your golf bag and your will always be ready.
The way you should act on a golf course however, are things that you must know and observe.
Golf is special because of the many customs including good sportsmanship that go with the game.
Here are some of the most important ones you need to observe while on the green:
*Dont stand where a person putting can see you or your shadow
*No noise making, no opening and closing your Velcro glove or jingle the change in your pocket, and NEVER accidentally cough during someones shot.
*Dont applaud a miss even if it means you or your team now have an advantage, this is extremely rude.
*Always mark you ball, use a ball mark (given away in pro shops) a coin or rock are also acceptable, anything that doesnt move. Put it behind the ball on the extension of your target line.
Ask a player whose line is on your mark if he would like it moved and which way.
Put the heel of your putter next to the mark and place the mark just outside the toe. When the player is finished, move your mark back, if you forget it is a penalty.
*Watch where you walk on the green, know where the balls are and dont walk on their line or it extension on the far side of the hole.
*Walk well around the hole unless you are tapping a ball in or picking it up out of the cup.
*Dont drag your feet on the green, it damages the grass and causes spike marks that cant be repaired until you have finished putting.
*It is against the rules to give advice, except to your partner, so be careful what you say after you have holed out.
*Dont be a slowpoke, you dont have to rush but shouldnt take to long either.

To facilitate this you will require a good quality set of golf shoes, Golf shoes are different to normal shoes as they have �spikes� on them - these are so that you feet grip into the ground when you are making your swing. Slipping when you make your swing can have disastrous results - in some cases it can cause you to miss the ball altogether. These spikes come in all sorts of varieties, however soft spikes are the normal preference as they do not cause and damage to the greens when you walk on them. Golf shoes do more than just assist you in retaining your grip - the also give you the ability to keep your feet dry. When choosing a pair of golf shoes choose a pair which are sturdy, however they need to be comfortable as you could be walking a long way in them.
