Each round played and blogged by Moly uses the following rules:
Paying
- The club are not made aware that Moly is playing and writing a blog
- Moly pays for the round at the best discount rate he can find, but is sometimes playing as a guest paying the member guest rate.
Play
- Rounds are played on full/summer greens only (not winter greens)
- Tees of the day, normally yellow, are used, although white used if allowable
Scoring
- Full medal play and scoring is used throughout – no gimmies
- Only exception is where a ball is lost, no provisional has been played and it is not practical to return and play again; in this case a ball is dropped on the edge of the fairway as near to where the ball was deemed to have landed, and a 2 shot penalty incurred. This was the new local rule recommended to speed up play in the 2019 rules revision.
