Additional Winter Warmer Rules and Play Guidelines

It is worth noting that we have some additional rules applicable to all winter events please read them and understand them, and apply them. The primary aim of these rules is to make play quick and fast, and sensible, if the course and weather are conspiring against you that's life but the course condition is not your fault so take a little relief then you can only blame your golf.

A bunker with water in it or a bunker that is hard after water ingress should be classified as GUR, a free drop should be taken behind the bunker

Clean lift and replace is available at all times through the fairway, this is extended to the rough should a ball be covered in mud, be sensible.

A stroke and distance drop may be taken for any in bounds lost ball to aid speed of play, drop point approximate to the place you lost it as agreed between the other players, to be sure you know what I mean lose your second shot, your playing four from where you dropped the ball

Be sensible if a ball is in mud or you have to stand in mud, or it is plugged on or off the fairway move it, clean it play it.
