WHY GOLF ETIQUETTE IS IMPORTANT
General Golf Etiquette Hints
Never talk during another player's swing.
Do not yell out following a shot (unless you are yelling "fore"). Even if boisterous behavior doesn't bother your playing partners, there are other people on the course who may be within earshot.
Be aware of your shadow on the putting green. Don't stand in a place that causes your shadow to be cast across another player or that player's putting line.
Never walk through a playing partner's putting line. Your footprints might alter the path of a partner's putt. Step over the putting line, or walk around (behind) the partner's ball.
When a playing partner is swinging or putting, try to stand out of his or her line of vision, and remain quiet during the other golfer's swing.
Be Kind to the Course
Observe cart rules. Some courses will post "cart path only" signs; others will ask you to observe the "90-degree rule." Do as you are told.
Keep carts away from greens and hazards. The wheels on carts can damage these sensitive areas (see golf cart rules and etiquette).
Repair your divots in the fairway. (See How to repair divots)
Repair your ball marks on the green. (See How to repair ball marks)
Always rake sand bunkers after hitting to erase your footprints and damage to the area where your ball was. (See How to rake sand bunkers)
Avoid taking a divot on a practice swing.
