Do you carry a current USGA Rules of Golf book when you play?

[bmongi1]

I carry a book and have the app. I also have a book at my office and one at my house. I page through them periodically. I apparently have serious golf nerd issues.

 

[checkered]

Nope. I have thought about it, but haven't had a whole lot of reasons to ever need it in the rounds I've played.

If all else fails just play 2 balls and figure out the correct ruling after the round

 

[rtparty]

Never. I'll vote in the poll when I get to a computer

 

[The Milk Man]

I have the app, before that carried the book. Have had to use them a few times.

 

[ntanygd760]

Is there a rule that allows the pin to be left in while putting because the cup filled with water, then froze, making pulling the pin impossible?

 

[Mmaynard11]

Have the book but it sits on my desk. Used to have the app but deleted it.

 

[Golf 'N Gator]

Yes, I carry the USGA book and a simplified version my course sells.

I used to carry one back in the day when I played more competitive golf in high school & college. I rarely use it anymore cause all my rounds are fairly casual. But I do have the app on the phone to reference in case it's needed.

I do not carry one and honestly don't know the rules all that well. It's one of the things I'd like to get better about in 2016

I have the app on my phone. Sometimes I have to use Google to search for a decision because the search feature in the app is a little rough.

I have the app on my phone.

When working a tournament, I obviously carry the full rule & decisions book, but I'm not playing in that case.

I don't have the book, I normally just ask the people I am playing with if I have questions.

That being said, I wouldn't mind carrying the book because there is usually a good discussion/argument about rules.

I dont and never really need it. I dont play any sanctioned tournaments so Ive never had a need to

 

[wubears71]

I have the app on my phone in the event I have to use it

I do carry a book, it is not current.

The only time I worry about the rules is in a tournament. If some guy/girl want to take a drop 100 yards from the green after hitting two balls OB, and they write down a bogey, why should I care. Casual golf and tournament golf are two completely different animals.

I completely agree! And I'll add that if someone starts spouting the rules at me it's going to be a long day.....for them!

I have a book in my bag, but I have never took it out.

Play by the rules the best you can and have fun. If you're pulling out a book during the round, I probably wouldn't want to play with you.

 

[Agent Jay]

I don't carry a book. I use to back in college and during my Assistant Pro days, but I haven't since then.

I voted yes because the last few years I've played in a state tournament where they give you a rule book at registration. I throw it in the bag, although honestly I have never ever opened it while on the course.

 

[Drumdog]

I have a rules book in my bag, but do I pull it out much? Nope.

 

[MBurnham]

No I never have and probably won't ever.
