Generally Accepted Practices

These are not binding laws, but the shared understandings of those who truly love the game in its purest form:

• Altered or enhanced states of consciousness are encouraged (when appropriate and not endangering fellow players). Inebriated success on the course is held in the highest esteem by purists. Know your limits, and attract no undue attention. Moderation and attention seeking are for ball golfers.

• No wheels on the course for the able-bodied. Walk it like your forebearers did in the ’90s. Carry your bag, feel the earth, be the sherpa.

• No littering or vandalism… but drawing dicks on appropriate surfaces (trees, benches, the occasional porta-potty) is hereby to be seen as an acceptable and time-honored form of artistic expression.

• Maintain an efficient and reasonable pace of play. Keep things moving. Don’t be the group that causes a logjam behind them. Know when to let others play through.

• Heckling within one’s own group is encouraged as a form of camaraderie, motivation, and team building.

• There is no OB. Such artificial boundaries are the tyranny of unnecessary rule-makers. Any disc that strays beyond imaginary lines shall be retrieved (or not), and thrown from a spot considered acceptable to the group. No penalty, no stroke added. Their self-inflicted error is already injurious enough.
