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 under these circumstances. 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.
Players, however, should be prepared to proceed at a quicker pace, at least temporarily, upon the course 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.
