| Meta Description | In this video, Neil Tappin and Jezz Ellwood take a look at the topic of etiquette on the golf course. Whilst the term itself might seem a little old-fashioned, this is about making sure that you are considerate of your playing partners and the course. These are mistakes that most experienced golfers make from time-to-time but if you're new to the game, there will be a chance you don't know some of these. |

Hello everyone, welcome to the London Club and this video in which we're going to take a look
00:03
at the etiquette mistakes that tend to be made by new golfers. That's fair to say the word
00:08
etiquette is fairly old-fashioned. What we're really talking about here are the things you
00:12
need to do and things you need to avoid in order to be considerate of those around you. Now we're
00:18
going to list out some of the mistakes and these are all things I think it's fair to say that
00:20
myself included many golfers have made but if you're new to the game you're definitely more
00:25
likely to make them. So let's head out to the golf course here at the London Club, get started.
00:39
Being ready to play when it's your turn is absolutely crucial. It's one of those things
00:43
that help keep the pace of play going so make sure that you've done all of your prep to play
00:48
while somebody else is hitting. So understanding what the wind's doing, how far you've got, all of
00:52
those things you should be making those calculations while others are playing so that when it's your
00:56
turn to go, club in hand, ready to go. It's those simple things that can really help speed up the
01:01
game of golf and everyone will be grateful for that.
01:10
So we're on the putting green and this is where the ball is rolling on the ground rather than flying
01:14
through the air. So it's important just to give a little bit of consideration to where your playing
01:18
companions are going to be putting from and do not walk across their line because yes this time of
01:23
year firm surfaces it's probably not going to make a lot of difference. I would say what happened just
01:28
in this video no difference whatsoever but in wetter conditions it could make a bit of a difference
01:33
yeah and it's one of those things that over time you just learn not to walk along the line of your
01:37
playing partner's putts. Yeah or across it even so you're unlikely to walk straight up and down it but
01:41
you might just absent-mindedly wander across so just be aware of where the other people in your group are going
01:46
to be putting from and stay well clear of that line.
01:59
Okay so I've tapped in we've finished the hole we're now ready to go to the next hole but you'll see
02:05
that there is one bag on the left of the green my bag over by the camera the green to next t route is
02:12
that way if I'd left my bag where Neil's is we'd be leaving this green a lot quicker and the people
02:17
up on the hill they're waiting to play in would be able to do so much more quickly as it is I've now
02:22
got to walk an extra 30 yards twice and then all the way back across the green and that can be
02:27
infuriating to watch from up on the hill there. If you know the course reasonably well you know where
02:31
you're going to need to leave your bag try and leave it at the point where you're going to be exiting that
02:35
green so once you've tapped in you can be away as quickly as possible.
02:39
And one other thing you'll see this quite a lot with relatively new golfers they'll have a chip
02:45
shot from over there they'll have their bag over there they're obviously going to have to have a
02:50
putt after the chip shot almost certainly but they will go over there with the wedge they won't take
02:55
the putter with them so then they'll have to go all the way back to the bag to get the putter to then
02:59
make the putt as long as it's not tipping it down there's absolutely no reason why you can't take
03:03
both clubs over there with you rest one gently down play the chip and then you haven't got to do
03:09
another 70-yard round trip to get the putter.
03:17
Okay so this is one that I'd say used to happen an awful lot when I was a junior golfer
03:20
but happens a bit less now but is well worth knowing and that is that if you are a group on
03:26
the golf course that's a little bit slower and you've got a faster group behind you you should
03:30
let them through Jez. Definitely especially if the course ahead is clear and you know you've
03:35
effectively lost ground on the other players ahead of you just move aside let them through
03:40
and I think a lot of a lot of newer golfers are actually quite good at this because they the
03:45
thought of having people behind them fills them with some sort of dread they don't want people
03:48
to see them while they're not that proficient at the game yet so they're happy to let people
03:53
through others are maybe not quite aware of what's going on behind them.
03:56
Exactly so always a good idea to try and keep play moving as quickly as you can but if you
04:00
are a bit slower than the group behind think about letting them go.
04:03
That I reckon get over get over that's wet that's wet now halfway across
04:17
I think it's the wrong club
04:28
So as golfers I think at times we can be a little bit over sensitive to noise Jez what
04:47
would you say? I think that's true I think people would say you know footballers play in
04:51
a cauldron of noise all the time but in football you're reacting to where the ball's going in
04:56
golf you're trying to get yourself in the right mindset to hit the shot so it's up to you when
05:02
you start and if there's stuff that's distracting you.
05:04
It's also a constant noise in a football stadium whereas on a golf course it's quiet and then
05:08
if suddenly I'm thinking if you jangle your clubs or you're rummaging around looking for
05:12
a ball or a tee in your golf bag at the wrong moment it can really be off-putting so it's
05:18
just a word of advice if you're a beginner looking to get into the game just be careful about
05:21
the noise that you're making make sure you don't do it when somebody's just
05:25
tasking to take the club back it could really put them off.
05:32
Oh stay there stay there I lost it you see it in the sun sorry where that went I was um
05:46
I was just sorting the scorecard out I wasn't really watching yeah sorry sorry so here's a
05:55
scenario where you just need to be aware of what's going on around you we're playing into
05:59
the sun it's never easy to follow the ball into the sun even harder when you've just
06:03
hit it and your head is still coming up after the shot so you're hoping that someone in your
06:07
group is going to be everyone in your group is going to be following that ball as closely
06:11
as they can so if one or two people are not watching and you've hit it a little bit wide
06:16
your chances of finding it are going to be greatly reduced.
06:19
It's very demoralizing that.
06:20
Yeah it is it can be very demoralizing so just a little bit of courtesy and consideration
06:26
you'd want someone to try and follow the flight of your ball so it's only right that you should
06:30
also try and follow the flight of your playing companions balls.
06:34
Okay so playing golf outside you're often going to have shadows and this is about being aware
06:44
of where your shadow is and what it's doing just as somebody's about to play so even if
06:48
your shadow isn't over the ball of your playing partner if it's somewhere near and then you
06:53
go and scratch your head that can be really off-putting can't it?
06:56
Yeah it can definitely you know not just on the green it might be the end of the day the
07:00
shadows are getting long and you're all around the tee area and you're just completely aware
07:04
of where your shadow is because again you know you might say we're being oversensitive
07:08
but just that little visual distraction can be enough to just throw someone.
07:12
Bad shot at the wrong time and suddenly you're not talking to each other which is a little
07:15
bit unnecessary so just be aware of what your shadow is doing.
07:18
So there you have it that's our look at the most common etiquette mistakes now these are
07:23
all things that as golfers we all make these mistakes from time to time but it's fair to
07:27
say that you are more likely to make them if you just started out hopefully this video
07:31
will highlight what they are and help you avoid them next time you're out on the golf
07:34
course and ensure that you're a real joy to play with but that's it for now from the London
07:38
Club thanks for watching we'll see you next time. |

00:39Being ready to play when it's your turn is absolutely crucial. It's one of those things
00:43that help keep the pace of play going so make sure that you've done all of your prep to play
00:48while somebody else is hitting. So understanding what the wind's doing, how far you've got, all of
00:52those things you should be making those calculations while others are playing so that when it's your
00:56turn to go, club in hand, ready to go. It's those simple things that can really help speed up the
01:01game of golf and everyone will be grateful for that.
01:10So we're on the putting green and this is where the ball is rolling on the ground rather than flying
01:14through the air. So it's important just to give a little bit of consideration to where your playing
01:18companions are going to be putting from and do not walk across their line because yes this time of
01:23year firm surfaces it's probably not going to make a lot of difference. I would say what happened just
01:28in this video no difference whatsoever but in wetter conditions it could make a bit of a difference
01:33yeah and it's one of those things that over time you just learn not to walk along the line of your
01:37playing partner's putts. Yeah or across it even so you're unlikely to walk straight up and down it but
01:41you might just absent-mindedly wander across so just be aware of where the other people in your group are going
01:46to be putting from and stay well clear of that line.
01:59Okay so I've tapped in we've finished the hole we're now ready to go to the next hole but you'll see
02:05that there is one bag on the left of the green my bag over by the camera the green to next t route is
02:12that way if I'd left my bag where Neil's is we'd be leaving this green a lot quicker and the people
02:17up on the hill they're waiting to play in would be able to do so much more quickly as it is I've now
02:22got to walk an extra 30 yards twice and then all the way back across the green and that can be
02:27infuriating to watch from up on the hill there. If you know the course reasonably well you know where
02:31you're going to need to leave your bag try and leave it at the point where you're going to be exiting that
02:35green so once you've tapped in you can be away as quickly as possible.
02:39And one other thing you'll see this quite a lot with relatively new golfers they'll have a chip
02:45shot from over there they'll have their bag over there they're obviously going to have to have a
02:50putt after the chip shot almost certainly but they will go over there with the wedge they won't take
02:55the putter with them so then they'll have to go all the way back to the bag to get the putter to then
02:59make the putt as long as it's not tipping it down there's absolutely no reason why you can't take
03:03both clubs over there with you rest one gently down play the chip and then you haven't got to do
03:09another 70-yard round trip to get the putter.
03:17Okay so this is one that I'd say used to happen an awful lot when I was a junior golfer
03:20but happens a bit less now but is well worth knowing and that is that if you are a group on
03:26the golf course that's a little bit slower and you've got a faster group behind you you should
03:30let them through Jez. Definitely especially if the course ahead is clear and you know you've
03:35effectively lost ground on the other players ahead of you just move aside let them through
03:40and I think a lot of a lot of newer golfers are actually quite good at this because they the
03:45thought of having people behind them fills them with some sort of dread they don't want people
03:48to see them while they're not that proficient at the game yet so they're happy to let people
03:53through others are maybe not quite aware of what's going on behind them.
03:56Exactly so always a good idea to try and keep play moving as quickly as you can but if you
04:00are a bit slower than the group behind think about letting them go.
04:03That I reckon get over get over that's wet that's wet now halfway across
04:17I think it's the wrong club
04:28So as golfers I think at times we can be a little bit over sensitive to noise Jez what
04:47would you say? I think that's true I think people would say you know footballers play in
04:51a cauldron of noise all the time but in football you're reacting to where the ball's going in
04:56golf you're trying to get yourself in the right mindset to hit the shot so it's up to you when
05:02you start and if there's stuff that's distracting you.
05:04It's also a constant noise in a football stadium whereas on a golf course it's quiet and then
05:08if suddenly I'm thinking if you jangle your clubs or you're rummaging around looking for
05:12a ball or a tee in your golf bag at the wrong moment it can really be off-putting so it's
05:18just a word of advice if you're a beginner looking to get into the game just be careful about
05:21the noise that you're making make sure you don't do it when somebody's just
05:25tasking to take the club back it could really put them off.
05:32Oh stay there stay there I lost it you see it in the sun sorry where that went I was um
05:46I was just sorting the scorecard out I wasn't really watching yeah sorry sorry so here's a
05:55scenario where you just need to be aware of what's going on around you we're playing into
05:59the sun it's never easy to follow the ball into the sun even harder when you've just
06:03hit it and your head is still coming up after the shot so you're hoping that someone in your
06:07group is going to be everyone in your group is going to be following that ball as closely
06:11as they can so if one or two people are not watching and you've hit it a little bit wide
06:16your chances of finding it are going to be greatly reduced.
06:19It's very demoralizing that.
06:20Yeah it is it can be very demoralizing so just a little bit of courtesy and consideration
06:26you'd want someone to try and follow the flight of your ball so it's only right that you should
06:30also try and follow the flight of your playing companions balls.
06:34Okay so playing golf outside you're often going to have shadows and this is about being aware
06:44of where your shadow is and what it's doing just as somebody's about to play so even if
06:48your shadow isn't over the ball of your playing partner if it's somewhere near and then you
06:53go and scratch your head that can be really off-putting can't it?
06:56Yeah it can definitely you know not just on the green it might be the end of the day the
07:00shadows are getting long and you're all around the tee area and you're just completely aware
07:04of where your shadow is because again you know you might say we're being oversensitive
07:08but just that little visual distraction can be enough to just throw someone.
07:12Bad shot at the wrong time and suddenly you're not talking to each other which is a little
07:15bit unnecessary so just be aware of what your shadow is doing.
07:18So there you have it that's our look at the most common etiquette mistakes now these are
07:23all things that as golfers we all make these mistakes from time to time but it's fair to
07:27say that you are more likely to make them if you just started out hopefully this video
07:31will highlight what they are and help you avoid them next time you're out on the golf
07:34course and ensure that you're a real joy to play with but that's it for now from the London
07:38Club thanks for watching we'll see you next time. |
