Each player shall furnish his own equipment, normally one club
       and two balls.

   Playing on a course must be approved by the owner of the hole.

   Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole
       and keep the balls out of the hole.

   For most effective play, the club should have a firm
       shaft. Course owners are permitted to check shaft stiffness
       before play begins.

   Course owners reserve the right to restrict the length of the
       club to avoid damage to the hole.

   The object of the game is take as many strokes as necessary
       until the course owner is satisfied that play is
       complete. Failure to do so may result in being denied
       permission to play the course again.

   It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately
       upon arrival at the course. The experienced player will take
       time to admire the course, with special attention to the
       well-formed bunkers.

   Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have
       played on or are currently playing.

   Players are encouraged to have proper rain gear along, just in case.

   Players should assure themselves that their match has been
       properly scheduled, particularly when a new course is being
       played for the first time. Previous players have been known to
       become irate if they discover someone else playing what they
       consider to be a private course.

   Players should not assume a course is in shape for play at all
       times.  Some players may be embarrassed if they find the course
       to be temporarily under repair.  Players are advised to be
       extremely tactful in this situation.  More advanced players
       will find alternate means of play when this is the case.

   Players are advised to obtain the course owner*s permission
       before attempting to play the back nine.

   Slow play is encouraged; however, players should be prepared to
       proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily, at the owner*s
       request.

   It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to
       play the same hole several times in one match.

   The course owner will be the sole judge of who is the best player.

   Players are advised to think twice before considering
       membership at a given course. Additional assessments may be
       levied by the course owner and the rules are subject to change
       without notice. For this reason, many players prefer to
       continue to play several different courses.
