Proper etiquette while on the golf course is essential to the enjoyment of the game. All golfers are responsible in learning the club and course rules. Almost every golf club and course has an established set of special rules or regulations. Spend the time in the clubhouse to learn what these rules of etiquette are and obey them.

As an example in Florida during the warm months of summer shirts without collars are tolerated, however when the snowbirds return in the fall you are expected to wear a collared shirt when on the course. Some courses require long pants but no jeans and golf shoes when playing or practicing. Improper attire will draw the attention of the course rangers. This embarrassing situation can be avoided by dressing appropriately.

Timeliness is another etiquette issue that causes problems with many golfers. Many people show up at the course 10 minutes before their tee time. If you really want to irritate people in the clubhouse, your playing partners and the people who have the next scheduled tee time this is the way to accomplish it. You have to be considerate of others. Many course require you sign in or report 30 minutes prior to your published tee time. Failure to do so can cause the loss of a round. It makes sense to your enjoyment of the game as well. Arriving early allows you to warm up on the driving range, do an equipment check and contact your playing partners.

For instance to the honor the preceding holes scores when teeing off at the next hole. Do they sign or initial the scorecard after each hole.

Probably one of the most irritating lack of etiquette is the use of a cell phone while on the course. Leave the phone in your vehicle or locker. If you feel you need to have a cell phone for emergencies then by all means take it. Just be sure to turn it off and place it in your bag. Fistfights have erupted as a result of a cell phone ringing on the tee or green.

Almost every one that plays golf knows the need for silence while on the course. There is no need to talk or carry out distracting activities when others are addressing the ball for a shot. Stay out of their line of vision keep your clubs still. Practice your good golf swing when it is your turn to take a shot. Even if you are not easily distracted others are and you need to respect them.
