- Out of practice?
- Come back gently. Nobody is counting but you.
- Playing most weeks?
- Pencil in the next one and you are done.
Parts of a hole

- FairwayShort grass, and the friendly way to the green.
- BunkerSand. Not where you want to be, and not the end of the world.
- GreenThe smooth bit with the flag. Putting happens here.
- CupThe hole itself. Get the ball in, then walk to the next tee.
Step 1: Plan
Choose weekday or weekend, a time of day, and how many of you are playing. Check prices and times with the course.
Step 2: Arrive
Give yourself time. Find the first tee, say hello, and get your clubs and your head ready.
Step 3: Tee off
Wait for the group ahead to clear, then take your first swing. Nobody is watching as closely as you think.
Step 4: Play on
Keep pace with the group in front, replace your divots, and let faster groups through.
Step 5: Finish
Add up the card, shake hands, and pencil in the next one.
