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 alternative means of play when this is the case. The course owner is responsible for manicuring and pruning any bush around the hole to allow for improved viewing of, alignment with, and approach to the hole. Players are advised to obtain the course owners 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 course owners request. It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to play the same hole several times in one match. Please excuse Dianne from being absent yesterday. She was in bed with gramps. Please excuse Johnnie for being.
