In my discussion of Rule 11, part 1, we talked exclusively about accidental deflection of balls in motion – ‘cause stuff happens. In...

I understand why Rule 11 needs to be in the book, but we’re going to be talking about some pretty odd stuff in this blog entry, and...

Another March, more Madness. Actually, this year’s Captain’s Meeting was easier on me than some of them. The proliferation of local...

And we’ve made it to double digits (Rule 10) after 2 years. What an accomplishment… Seriously, I hope some of this helps to anchor your...

Probably my last picture of Pebble Beach - the fabulous and often forgotten 9th hole - the last hole that runs along the coast until...

One of the nice things about the new rule book is that there are titles for each rule. In the case of the 8th, it’s “Course Played as it...

As has been the rule for quite a while, you’re limited to 14 (as a kid I was an A.J. Foyt fan so the number resonates with me) clubs...

I’m not going to spend too much time talking about match play (all right, as I look at the finished blog entry this did run a little...
