Hints to Improve Slow Play
- Limit your search for lost balls
- If you think your ball may be lost or out of bounds, you may plan another ball (provisional ball) from the place where your first ball was played. You must tell your opponent or fellow-competitor that you are playing a provisional ball and play it before you look for the first ball. If you cannot find your first ball or If it is out of bounds, you must count the strokes with the first and provisional balls, add a penalty stroke and play out the hole with the provisional ball. If you find your first ball in bounds, continue play with it and pick up the provisional ball.
- Ready Golf
- 3 minutes allowed to look for lost ball
If your stroke count for the holes reaches double par, pick up your ball and proceed to the next hole.
