Sometimes it seems to be non existing.<br />However, there are no referees if two groups play leisurely Soccer. They regulate the game between themselves. The same should apply to golf too. It should be the courtesy of the group to remind individuals if e.g. they forget to repair their divot. Even the concept of smoking a cigar and drinking on the course is still very alien to me.Steffen Horsthttp://theavidgolfer.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10712965.post-35425425861435842812013-03-07T08:37:03.223-05:002013-03-07T08:37:03.223-05:00Terrific post.

Unfortunately, with modern business even unmannered rich kids can afford to play on some of our most prestigious greens and that lifestyle has been lost.<br />I don't know what it takes to bring back the respect and reverence of golf, but I've been following the <a href="http://www.belmont-lodge.co.uk/golf-breaks/weekend-golf-breaks.html" rel="nofollow">belmont-lodge.co.uk</a> blog for the past few months and it seems like they're struggling with the same internal issues. They had an interesting idea similar to the etiquette test, but more of a etiquette three-strike rule. Unfortunately I don't see it becoming a viable option because can you really afford to ban your top paying members in this economy...?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770032479545283000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10712965.post-54561212561767269882013-03-03T02:49:05.389-05:002013-03-03T02:49:05.389-05:00Thanks for your tips.

Our society is becoming ruder and ruder. I think some etiquette in golf or any other sport, is required. All sports have rules; why not some on how to behave when playing? The objective is for ALL to enjoy and have a good time. I'm inclined to say yes here for the sake of respect for others.Gerry Wendelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03536057586735422743noreply@blogger.com
