- Thou shall know the RULES OF GOLF. And knowing them, shall enforce them, as honestly as possible, even on thine self.
- Thou shall regard TIME SHEETS as sacrosanct. If unable to play, thou shall either ring the club or those on the time sheet with thee.
- Thou shall always arrive in time for the Time Sheet. To keep thy partners waiting is a grave transgression, an disrupts the time sheet.
- Thou shall not engage in SLOW PLAY. Too many practice swings and aping what thou sees on television gravely offends against this commandment.
- Remember always to keep the GREENS in a heavenly state. Thou shall repair all pitch marks, even those made by thine neighbour and thou shall replace divots.
- Thou shall never leave Caddy Cars in front of greens. Nor leave them on the wrong side of the green. Thou shall always leave by the shortest route to the nest tee box.
- Thou shall never - NEVER - mark thine Cards on the green. Greens are for putting on, not for marking cards.
- Thou shall always rake a bunker when your shot is complete. Indeed, when noticing a bunker which needs it, thou shall rake it, even if the footmarks had not been made by thyself.
- Thou shall always observe GOOD MANNERS on the course. Obey all directions and keep thy voice down, so that it shall not distract the play of thy neighbours.
- Thou shall take infinite care in marking and signing of thy card before placing it in the competition box, this ensuring thy winning score shall not be disqualifying.
