35 GOLF ETIQUETTE YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF The following are some simple rules everyone can apply to make them a pleasure to play with, in front of or behind. 1. Arrive 15 minutes before you are due to hit off. 2. Make sure you mark your ball so you can identify it easily 3. Being at the tee when it is your turn to hit off means being ready with club, ball and tee ready to step forward and play your shot. 4. Where you have the honour, walk onto the tee smartly. Fill in the scores from the last hole after you have hit 5. If the players in front call you through, be ready to hit promptly and walk through smartly. 6. If your shot strays, line up the direction with some object and walk straight to it. Walking smartly between shots can save time and help catch up to the group in front. 7. If you have to look for a ball and the following players are in range, call them through 8. Before walking on to the green, leave your trundler in a handy position to proceed to the next tee.

36 36 SISTER CLUBS We have a Sister club relationship with five other clubs: Amberley, Geraldine, Lower Waitaki, Waimari Beach and Hokitika. If you wish to play at any of these courses, you will need to write, in the Green Fee book, your name and Club ID Number, and put in Sister Club where it says the amount of money. Your bag tag will indicate you are a member of the Ellesmere club. You may also play in their local competitions by paying only the entry fee for the day. eg our fee is usually $5.00. Please do not abuse this relationship as it has been negotiated between the two clubs in good faith. While you are on the course please observe all acceptable etiquette as you are representing Ellesmere Golf Club. BAR ROSTER Everybody has been allocated a duty spot on the bar duty roster. As part of your club membership it is hoped that everyone will see this duty as a member s contribution to the club and be able to do this duty. There will be a Bar Manager in attendance to oversee any problems and to lock up afterwards. If you are unable to complete your duty on the date listed, then try and arrange a swap with a fellow player. Most people are happy to change dates if asked. STARTER DUTIES A number of people have also been allocated Starter Duties. Please turn up earlier than usual to complete this. If you are in doubt as to what is required, ask Mike Williams or Mike Steed.

37 Storm Damage Areas Please note that as of January , the course is no longer considered to be suffering from storm damage and creating a danger to players. Therefore the areas of GUR are restricted to those that are marked with white/red pegs and marked GUR. These may change during the year, as circumstances change. There are some areas where there are still some fallen trees or holes created by the roots of the fallen trees. Relief is allowed for these. Tree stumps themselves, where there is no storm damage, do not generate relief without penalty. In areas of long grass, players may take an unplayable or play the ball as it lies. A lost ball requires the player to return to the last place of playing a ball and drop another under penalty of one stroke. If from the tee, then it can be teed up. If you think your ball may be lost, then hit a provisional before leaving the tee or the location as this will save you the walk back. In all circumstances, BEFORE taking relief, consult your marker. 37

38 Local rules: These are displayed on the noticeboard but do change from time to time as conditions change. They are also found on the score card. Where stance and/or swing of the player has interference from a fallen tree or fallen tree root or the hole created by it, then a player may take relief and drop a ball within one club length of the nearest point of relief. This may not necessarily be a better place than the current position. The player may choose to play the ball as it lies. Measuring devices are permitted under note to Rule For all play at the course a player may obtain distance information by use of a distance-measuring device. Stones in bunkers are movable obstructions and may be removed under Rule 24.1 Stones on the course are moveable obstructions and can be removed, without moving the ball. There are also stone areas. Players may take relief from stone areas (Immovable obstructions Rule 24.2) by dropping a ball within one club length at the nearest point of relief from stones. Relief when taken, must be for stance and swing. Players may choose to play the ball as it lies, or move the stones without moving the ball, if this is possible. 38
