Not quite of the gravity of other rules related discussion but just a point of order really.
I'm often telling my girlfriend when we play that if she whiffs a shot but meant it as a stroke in anger it gets carded. It might be possible theres a grey area between the two but I think we all the know the slight diffence in the tightness of the shoulders, the swing speed etc. It doesn't much matter to us at the moment as were not turning in cards but it will do soon and I want us to get it right from the off.
It's frankly amazing the amount of golfers I see do this. Of course it's only speculation as i'm not seeing their cards but I would give fair odds that they don't get marked.
The missus and I have a fairly healthy competative streak but only derive satisfaction(and often money) from a honest victory.
Have tried wading through the rule book but it's a little turgid compared to say, War and Peace so thought I might ask here.
While were at it which book of 'The rules of Golf illustrated and/or made more palletable for people with a woefully short attention span' might our learned members recommend?
