USGA: Rules of Golf explained

CLICK ON GRAPHIC TO GO TO USGA RULES EXPLAINED

The 2012 season for the Chicago North Tour will kick off April 21.  As players prepare their swings, it is equally important to get caught up on the Rules of Golf.  A poor shot could result in a higher score for the hole, but a rules infraction could result in a disqualification.  Not knowing the rules does not excuse the player from the associated penalty.

Relying on your playing partners to get the rule right is another mistake players make.  The Rules of Golf in written text can be overwhelming and confusing, get the correct ruling from an official NOT a competitor.  The USGA has put together a wonderful video: The Rules of Golf Explained.  Click on the link to view the video and get the correct information on some of the basic rules of golf.
