Rules
The Rules of Golf are administered and governed by the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A) and the United States Golf Association (USGA).
They are comprehensive and provide answers to the many issues that arise in a game that is played worldwide on many different types of courses by players of all abilities.
The underlying principle of the rules is fairness. As stated on the back cover of the official rule book
R&A USGA
“Play the ball as it lies, play the course as you find it, and if you cannot do either, do what is fair.”
Etiquette
Golf etiquette covers everything from how you dress, to how you behave – the aim is not to belittle anyone but to ensure that everyone is able to enjoy the game.
If you’re not certain of what to expect then please ring and ask…
‘Honesty’, ‘Integrity’ and ‘Courtesy’.


Golf Jargon
Have you ever wandered what a Birdie is or a Par? As for a Double Bogey? I’ll explain all you need to know during your first lessons – don’t be afraid to ask..




New to Golf - Frequently Asked Questions.
We advise that all new golfers arrive at Tehidy about 15 minutes before their lesson is due to begin. The Pro Shop is positioned at the front of the main Clubhouse. Register with one of the Pro Shop staff and they will advise you where the Practice Ground is located for your lesson.
Individual lessons are best booked in 40 minute slots and ideally spaced out no more than 7 days apart. Taking the lessons on a regular basis is particularly good for beginners as they don’t have the experience to practise effectively on their own.
Generally, after six lessons taken over 4-6 weeks a new golfer has practised the fundamentals required to play on a golf course. This would include set-up and swing and short game including chipping, pitching, bunker play and putting.
I encourage my pupils to get out and play even just a few holes as soon as possible. It’s important to experience the course to understand the joy of playing the game rather than just trying to improve the swing and hitting balls on a practice ground.
A blend of ‘Lessons Practice & Play’ is the ideal formula to take your game to the next level.
