***********
INDOOR GOLF
***********
1. Each player will furnish his own equipment for play, normally
one club and two balls.
2. Course to be played must be approved by the owner of the hole.
3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object of the game is to get the club
in the hole and keep the balls out of the hole.
4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm shaft.
Course owners are permitted to check the stiffness of the shaft
before play begins.
5. Course owners have the right to restrict the length of the club
to prevent damage to the hole.
6. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as possible
until the owner is satisfied. Failure to do so may result in
being denied permission to play the course again.
7. It is normally considered bad form to begin playing the hole
immediately upon arriving at the course. The experienced player
will usually admire the entire course with special attention to
the well formed bunkers.
8. Players are cautioned not to mention any other courses they have
played, or are currently playing, to the owner of the course
being played. Upset owners have been known to damage players'
equipment for this reason.
9. Players should assure themselves that the match has been
properly scheduled, especially on a course being played for the
first time. Previous players have been known to get irate if
they find someone else playing what they consider their own
private course.
10. Players should not assume that the course is in shape for play
at all times. Some owners may be embarrassed if their course is
temporarily under repair, and the player is advised to use tact
in making this determination. More advanced players will find
alternate means of play when this is the case.
11. It is considered outstanding performance to play the same hole
several times in one match.
12. Course owners shall be the judge as to who is the best player.
It is considered bad form for a player to reveal his score to
other players, or even to reveal that he played the course.
Players who have contracted exclusive rights to play a private
course are cautioned that information reaching the owner that he
has played some other course may result in the contract being
cancelled and a suite for damages instituted.

Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire 'till dawn
With a deck of fifty-one
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do.
