The Rules of Bedroom Golf:

1. Each player shall furnish his own equipment for play, normally one
    club and two balls.

2. Play on course must be approved by the owner of  the hole.

3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and keep
    the balls out.

4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft.  Course
    owners are permitted to check shaft stiffness before play begins

5. Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length to avoid
    damage to the hole.

6. Object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until
    the owner is satisfied play is complete. Failure to do so may result
    in being denied permission to play again

7. It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately
    upon arrival. Experienced players will normally take time to admire
    the entire course, paying special attention to well formed mounds
    and bunkers.

8. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have played
    or are currently playing to the owner of the course being played.
    Upset owners have been known to damage a players equipment for
     this reason.

10. Players should not assume that the course is in shape to play at
     all times. Players may be embarrassed  if  they  find the  course
     temporarily under repair. Players are advised to be extremely tactful
     in this situation. More advanced players will find alternate means of
     play when this is the case.

11. Players should assume their match has been properly scheduled
     particularly when playing a new course for the 1st time.  Pervious
     players have been known to become irate if they discover someone
     else is playing what they considered a private course

12.The owner of the course is responsible for the pruning of any  bushes,
     which  may reduce the visibility of the hole.

13.Players are strongly advised to get the owners permission before
    attempting to play the backside.

14.Slow play is encouraged; however, players should be prepared to
     proceed at a  quicker pace at the owner's request.

15.It is considered an outstanding performance, time permitting, to
     play the same hole  several times in one match.
