The Rules of Golf

The United States Golf Association is pleased to present the official Android application for the 2012-2015 editions of “The Rules of Golf” and “Decisions on The Rules of Golf,” as well as “Rules of Amateur Status.”

The Rules of Golf app is for you if you are an avid golfer looking for instant access to the official Rules and Decisions so you can play the game by the Rules and resolve disputes quickly. With this application, you'll answer pressing golf questions in seconds, such as:

•When is a ball considered lost?
•Can you stand out of bounds when making a stroke?
•How do you deal with a ball that lands close to a dangerous situation, like a rattlesnake or a beehive?

If you still have questions on a particular situation, e-mail the USGA directly from the application to receive expert advice. Whether it’s about casual water, loose impediments or line of play, no question is out of bounds.

Features:

•The only Rules of Golf app approved by the USGA
•Every Rule, Definition and Decision available at the touch of your finger
•Simple and intuitive navigation
•Convenient word and phrase search function
•Jump dial for quick access to specific Rules
•E-mail Rules questions to USGA experts or Rules to friends.

* The USGA is the governing body for the game of golf in the U.S. and Mexico. The R&A Rules Limited is the governing body for the game of golf in all other jurisdictions. Please contact the appropriate governing body in your jurisdiction with questions regarding the Rules of Golf. *

Great job, PGA, on this app.
