Golf Course Notes:
Once you hit your tee shot, you need to find your ball. Whoever is farthest from the hole goes first. However, you should always play ready golf. This means you should have your club selected and know exactly where your ball is as soon as possible. And if you’re ready to hit and your opponent is not, then you can go.
Always be aware of where your opponent is. Make sure you’re not in his way. You must be aware of your surroundings at all times!
After the first hole, you follow the honors system, which was covered in Intermediate class.
