Etiquette on the Course
Manners in Action
By John Ehle
A golfer's comportment on the course is taken for granted in most cases..until a fellow player commits a gaffe that is so obvious and (possibly) upsetting that it becomes an awkward issue. These events can be avoided...in most instances they can be swept away by using common sense.
Yves C. Ton-That has compiled a Quick Reference to Golf Etiquette in a concise, compact, tabulated notebook that addresses virtually every possible situation that might arise on the golf course. This pocket-sized, waterproof reference guide is organized in chronological order making ease-of-use a non-issue. Illustrations abound and simply enjoins the golfer to subscribe to the dictum that "no etiquette means no golf".
The guide assumes knowledge of the rules and includes 10 golden rules for fast play...a popular behavior which will increase the number of invitations to play that one receives.
There is nothing fluffy about this little tome: it is pithy and helpful cover to cover. Every golf bag should contain one.
