improve the conditions for making a gaming rack.

If a fixed obstacle (such as a fountain with
water) interferes with your playing stance or swing, the ball can be thrown
without penalty within the length of 1 club from the nearest point free from
the influence of the obstacle, but not closer to the hole. The influence of the
obstacle on the line of your strike is not a basis for alleviating the
situation, unless both the ball and the obstacle are on the putting green.

markers, not in front of them. It is allowed to place the ball on the
“ti” behind the “ti” markers. Within the length of 2 clubs
from the front line. A hit with a tee outside this zone in a match game does
not entail a penalty, however, your opponent may ask to repeat the strike; In

Golf Game Etiquette:
Wait Your Turn:
If all golfers hit the ball at the same time,
there will be massive confusion, so you need to know when to hit.

There is a tradition in which the player who
showed the best score in the previous hole is given the honor to be the first
to start the game with tee (and so on).

to start the game with tee (and so on).
The rules state that the player whose ball is
farthest from the hole plays next. However, within your group there may be an
agreement about playing “ready golf,” that is, anyone who is ready
for a shot can hit the ball.

When all the balls were on the putting green, you
need to remember about the flag. If your ball is closest to the hole, you have
to pull the flag out of the glass, or if not all players confirm that they can
clearly see the hole, you can start “serving the flag”, i.e. be ready to pull
it out of the glass as the ball rolls toward the hole.

After completing the game on the hole, the player
who first scored the ball in the hole usually inserts the flag back into the
glass.

Keep Up:

has nothing to do with how skillfully you play, but rather with how fast.

In addition, on the green during a friendly
round, very short putts (half a meter or less) are usually declared “given” or
given away. That is, if you are told “this is good,” the partner means that you
will score your putt and can lift the ball.

Golf Game Secret Skills:
How To Play In The Wind:
In windy weather, consider the strength of the
wind and its direction. With a direct hit, the ball can be blown away by the
force of the wind, so it’s worth making allowances for it. For example, if the
wind blows from right to left, you need to aim more to the right so that the
ball spun to the left.

force of the wind, so it’s worth making allowances for it. For example, if the
wind blows from right to left, you need to aim more to the right so that the
ball spun to the left.
The main task of a golfer when playing in such
weather is to drive the ball as low as possible to the ground. When hitting the
ball flies with reverse rotation, and the higher it starts to rise, the
stronger the force of the wind acts on it.
weather is to drive the ball as low as possible to the ground. When hitting the

stronger the force of the wind acts on it.
Based on this, if you are going to send the ball
100 meters upwind, you should not use a pitch or wage. In this situation, it is
better to choose the seven – you hit quieter, and the ball will fly lower, and
you will have more control over it. And the last rule: when playing in the
wind, try to keep the ball on the fairway all the time. Even if you need to do
more strokes than usual, this will result in half the success of passing the
hole in windy weather.

How To Play In The Rain:
A player who enters the field in rainy weather
must wear a waterproof suit and waterproof golf boots made of genuine leather.
In this case, it is desirable to have with you two or three gloves – in case
one of them gets wet.

In general, one of the most important rules when
playing in the rain is to keep your hands and flu clubs dry. You can even put
on the palm of a special talc, which will absorb water. You should also take
care of the inventory and take with you a plastic bag for clubs. And, of
course, do not forget to grab a large umbrella and two towels on the field –
one can be left in the bag just in case, the other should always be with you –
wipe your hands.

As for the game itself, here it is necessary to
take into account the peculiarities of the state of the field in rainy weather.
For example, if you usually get used to doing a pitch 15-20 meters before the
hole, then in the rain it is better to abandon this element: the fairway is
soaked from water, a too soft surface forms, and the blow will not work. In
this situation, I recommend to make a chip that more often forgives players’
mistakes.

And most importantly – try not to get wet,
otherwise all your thoughts will not be about how to play, but how to get to
the finish line as soon as possible.
