USGA Rules shall govern all play and the following Local Rules shall apply:
• Holes #10 & 14 (South) Waste Areas: Sandy areas to the right of #10 and #14 are not a penalty area and are to be played as the general area .
• On holes #4 & #17 (North) the margin of the red penalty area will be defined by the edge of the cart path nearest the penalty area. In addition to the option prescribed in rule 17.1, ball drops have been provided as an option if the player chooses. Please use the drop area that would be the closest to the spot the ball last crossed the margin of the penalty area no nearer the hole.
• On Hole #8 (North) Blue stakes indicate the portion of the immovable obstruction (cart path) behind the green from which free relief may be taken by using the drop area near the blue tee on #9. The vegetation contained in the cart path is part of the obstruction. A ball which is 95% certain to be in the vegetation does not have to be found.
• On Hole #15 (North) In addition to the options prescribed in Rule 16.1 for relief from the cart path that runs through the fairway, drop zones have been provided as an additional option. Players must use the drop zone that is closest to where their ball lays and not nearer to the hole.
• Immovable Obstructions: In addition to rule 16.1, if a ball lies off the putting green but not in a penalty area and an immovable obstruction on or within two club lengths of the putting green and within two club lengths of the ball intervenes on the line of play between the ball and the hole, the player may take relief as follows:
The ball must be lifted and dropped at the nearest point to where the ball lay that (a) Is not nearer the hole, (b) avoids intervention and (c) is not in a penalty area or on a putting green. The ball may be cleaned when lifted.
• Newly sodded & sanded areas: Relief must be taken from all newly sodded or sanded areas. Please proceed under rule 16.1.
• Staked Trees: Protection of young trees is identified by stakes and rope. If such a tree interferes with a players stance or the area of his intended swing, the ball must be lifted, without penalty and dropped in accordance with the procedure prescribed in Rule 16.1a (Immovable Obstruction)
• Out Of Bounds: Defined by white stakes / posts.
• Yellow Penalty Area: Defined by yellow stakes / lines.
• Red Penalty Area: Defined by red stakes / lines.
• Doubt as to Procedure
In stroke play, if a competitor is doubtful of his rights or the correct procedure during the play of a hole, he may, without penalty, complete the hole with two balls. Rule 20.1c.
