Recommend rule book please

[little brit]

Ok, with all of the discussions and questions lately on rules. I was wondering if there were a simple rules book you would recommend. The more complicated rulings I would ask here . I was recently told I was taking a two shot penalty when it should have only been one. I am sure that it would usually balance out pretty well in the end though.

There's only one rule book that I know of. USGA and RCGA have it online if you want it that way, otherwise get a paper copy. They run about $8-9. No Coles notes that I am aware of ;-)

at 28 pages including, pace of play, etiquette etc etc I wonder how many rules they cover? Have you seen it Lobwedge? Although at $1.50 it won't break the bank

Just found this

I think this is out of that version. Maybe I need something a little more substantial. I guess I will have to buy the full one.

RCGA rulebooks can be found at GolfTown, along with simplified versions published by others. You can also find some of these simplified versions at Chapters, etc.

I did purchase a copy of this booklet and for those "newbies" interested in learning the basic rules, it is excellent.

[golfott]

where did you buy a copy? i have not looked for it yet, but if you know who is selling them.

[golfott]

i believe that is for those who wish to re sell the book, not for retail purchases

No. Reseller is the description given to the retail outlets by the publishers.

But if you want secondhand try ebay
