headed for other golfers, yell “FORE!”

If you swing and miss it does not count as a stroke.

If you swing and it moves no matter if it is only an inch, it counts as a stoke.

divots

Know where your club is at all times and others need to be aware of where your club is as well!

Basic Golf Rules (cont.)No matter if you

are swinging or putting, don’t take all day to hit the ball!

The person with the lowest score wins

STROKE = Every time you hit the ball. Count the number of strokes it takes to get the ball from the tee to the cup.

PAR = Then number of stokes it should take the skilled golfer from the tee to the cup.

BIRDIE = One stroke under Par

EAGLE = Two Strokes under Par
