ON LOCAL RULES.

An appendix to the Rules of Golf gives Clubs the right to make local rules. dealing with certain obstruc tions such as rushes, trees, hedges, seats, and railways, and also rabbit scrapes and hool marks, mud, the penalty for being out of bounds. and the procedure for balls lying on a green other than that of the hole being played to. The result of this is often confusion in the minds of players as to what are local rules and what are the Rules of Golf. Until quite recently there was no local rule the R.H.K.G.C.'S courses about lifting a ball lying on

on

played to, yet the majority of play- green other than the one being

ers did so lift balls and not with- out reason. Imagine the uproar that might have arisen had a player in playing to the eleventh on the old course and finding his ball ou shot off the said green. This omis- the twelfth green played a fult iron sion from local rules was rectified as stated three or four years ago, and during the discussion the ques- tion arose as to whether ball so lifted should be

•placed" "dropped.".
