Assess your putt when your group arrives on the green. Be ready to play immediately after your partner. Play when ready, it is not strictly necessary to respect the order of play especially off the green Keep practice swings to a minimum. Don't fall asleep at the address. Walk briskly between shots and green to the next tee. Position your bag/trolley at the side of the green ready for the next tee. If in doubt as to a potentially lost ball or out-of bounds, play a provisional ball (and declare it to your partner). This saves walking back. When appropriate, play your shot then help search for your partner's ball. There should never be more than one hole between you and the group ahead of you. Respect the 5 minute limit when searching for a lost ball. If searching for a lost ball (5 min.) and pressed by the group behind - LET THEM THROUGH immediately. Continue your erudite and intellectual conversations whilst walking - not when your partner is about to play. Happy golf! IGC Committee
