All play is governed by the Official Rules of Golf

1. 14 club limit (including putter but not limiting other golf equipment like ball retrievers, etc.)
2. You must play your ball “as it lies”. You are not permitted to touch or move your ball (other than to make a positive identification) or otherwise improve your lie unless a one stroke penalty is taken for an “unplayable lie” (relief 1 club length no closer to the hole).
3. The rules of golf state that any shot that goes out of bounds (marked by white stakes) must be hit again from the spot where it was first struck (this is what is meant as “stroke & distance” or basically a two shot penalty).
4. If you are unsure if your ball landed in bounds or not, it is permissible to hit a “provisional ball” and then go look for your first shot. If the first one is found O.B., you must refer to the penalty in #4. You may only play the provisional ball if you were not able to find or identify yours. You would be playing your 3rd shot from the tee if hitting the provisional (one out, penalty back, hit three…)
5. Hazards are defined by red stakes and unlike O.B. you may hit your ball from there (if possible) without penalty. However, you may only take one club in and you may not “ground” your club in the hazard.
6. Lateral hazards are also marked by yellow stakes and you may also hit your ball from inside under the same rules as #6.
7. Anyone who hits their ball in a hazard may opt to take an “unplayable lie” (almost automatic in a water hazard) but must take a stroke penalty to remove the ball from the hazard and drop it at shoulder height at a spot as close to the point of entry into the hazard as is possible to determine. You may draw an imaginary line anywhere from a spot 2 club lengths from where your ball entered the hazard all the way back to where you first hit the ball.
8. The player furthest away from the hole always hit first. This rule applies from tee to green.
9. Each group in our championship tournament will have one player designated as a “rules official” whose purpose is to resolve rules questions or possible violations and help the individuals in their group record the correct score on the official score cards. (Group 1, Mike Amaya; Group 2, John Graham; Group 3, Dan Sawada; Group 4 is exempt as these are guests whose scores will not be submitted to the tournament committee for purposes of determining the Club Champion)
   

The Champion's Dinner will commence directly after the golf outing at Mike Amaya's Timeshare # 1609 & #1610 in the Marriott's Shadow Ridge complex. Dinner will include Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, and BBQ Chicken as the main course. Although Soda's and Water will be provided, this will be a BYOB for any alcoholic beverages. A $10.00 donation would be greatly appreciated since most of the food is coming out of our personal pockets. You are welcome to invite your friends and family.

If you are staying over Saturday night, an evening social is being planned at the Agua Caliente Casino “Canyon Lounge” located at 32250 Bob Hope Drive. There will dancing and a live band performing this night.
