"There is nothing worse than hitting a decent drive down the middle and having to move it into the rough."
As golfers it's not a great experience having to take your ball to the side of the fairway before playing your next shot, but it's introduced into clubs to help protect fairways over winter months, when growth is slow and we have little to no recovery for divot damage.
Below is the Notice of Winter Rules.
Thank you for cooperation during the coming weeks.
