Local Rules
Gardens - The only Garden on this course is the Rose Garden adjacent to number one tee. All other areas are to be treated as “Play the ball as it lies”.
Leaves – At this time of the year a ball can be lost in the leaves. When this occurs the ball is, by agreement to be dropped and played in an agreed position without penalty. This applies whether in the rough or fairway, but feel free to use the fairways when playing golf on the Hanmer Springs Golf Course.
