Special Rules for Beginners

・These rules are not meant to be enforced too strictly. The experienced players in each group may use their discretion, as long as the group keeps a reasonable pace and does not fall too far behind.
・If a player loses 2 balls on one hole, they should pick up, move to the green, and only putt for the remainder of that hole.
・If a player's score reaches double par, they should pick up. In that case, the score for the hole will be recorded as double par.
・For out of bounds or lost balls, do not replay the shot. Instead, take a one-stroke penalty and play forward from a suitable spot.
・A maximum of 3 putts is allowed. If the ball is not holed by then, the hole will be recorded as 4 putts and completed.
・If a ball does not get out of a bunker in one shot, the player may take a one-stroke penalty and move the ball outside the bunker to an easier lie.
・If the ball lands in a difficult spot such as behind a tree or in thick bushes, the player may take a one-stroke penalty and move the ball to an easier position rather than attempting an unreasonable shot.
・If the ball enters a water hazard, to avoid repeated shots into the hazard, the player may take a one-stroke penalty and play from the opposite side.
