Abridged Rules of Bedroom Golf
a year ago
Receiving Transmission...
I was scouring through all my old FA journals when I stumbled upon this entry I made in 2006 (boy, where does the time go?). It's still as funny as before, and since I've gotten a lot more watchers in the 18 years since, I figured I'd share it here again.
This is something I found in a library book. Very well worth the read for a chuckle. ;)
ABRIDGED RULES OF BEDROOM GOLF
1. Play on a course must be approved by the owner.
2. Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length.
3. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until the course owner is satisfied that play is complete. Failure to do so may result in being denied permission to play the course again.
4. It is considered bad form to begin playing immediately upon arrival at the course. The experienced player will take time to admire the whole course.
5. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses they have played or are currently playing. Upset course owners have been known to damage players' equipment for this reason.
6. Players should assure themselves that their match has been properly scheduled, particularly when the course is being played for the first time. Previous players have been known to become irate if they discover someone else playing on what they consider to be a private course.
7. The course owner is responsible for the upkeep of the playing surface.
8. Slow play is encouraged. However, players should be prepared to proceed at a faster pace, at the course owner's request.
9. The course owner shall be the sole judge of who is the best player.

That was the year i started drawing and reaching out to communities to show my work. Which led to me meeting you and your work shortly after where i submitted work to share ^^.

Hmmm. Not on this computer. Not of my main thumb drives for offline storage. I'll have to see if t's on an older PC, or If I have to go out and Google it up. Alas.
And this is a very clever idea. I wonder what the book is called? There's apparently entries on the internet for this, with more rules too.
