Etiquette for Golf courses

Wearing proper golf apparel is but one rule of etiquette on the links, but it is one of the most important ones for most golf courses. Most clubs and courses, even public ones, require that its golfers follow a dress code. The most popular rule, and probably the one you ve most frequently come across, is the collared shirt. Many courses also require long pants – not jeans of course – and golf shoes.

When it comes to actually hitting the links, the primary rule of etiquette is to show up on schedule for your tee time. Don t arrive five minutes beforehand and plan to still hit the driving range. Be considerate to others. Include space in your ETA to not only practice and warm up, but also to park your car, buy balls, change, and pick up a cart.

Another common courteous is that cell phones are not a proper part of golf apparel. Cell phones should be left in your car or locker. If you do bring one on the course for emergencies, keep it turned off and in your bag.
