If each player in a foursome saves five seconds per shot,

each round of golf would be shortened by 30 minutes!

GENERAL

• Minimize practice swings.
• If one player cannot reach the group in front, let him hit first.
• All members of a group should try to watch each other's shots until the ball comes to rest. This will avoid many lost balls.
• Carry a spare ball in your pocket.
• Give instruction only on the driving range.

ON THE TEE

• Tee off when you are ready and there is room to hit, whether or not you have honors or you hit the farthest.
• Hit a provisional if in doubt.
• After hitting, return to your clubs and be ready to proceed.

ON THE FAIRWAY

• Limit lost ball search to 3 minutes. A ball played after 3 minutes results in a penalty.
• Be ready to play with selected club in hand as soon as it is your turn.
• Drop off cart passenger, and then go to your ball.

ON THE GREEN

• Read the green as you are approaching it, or when others are putting.
• Putt out, unless impeded by another ball.
• Park carts towards the rear of the green and next tee.
• Mark scorecards on next tee, not this green.
• Leave yur extra clubs between your ball and your cart/next tee.
