The golfers’ call of ‘fore’ is to be replaced by a new system to comply with health and safety regulations, The R&A and USGA jointly announced today.
The new system is called “ForeTee†and here’s how it works:
ForeTee consists of four steps:
1. Before making a shot, the distance in yards between the golfer striking the ball [G1] and every person [G2] within the maximum distance of the chosen club’s radius (ranging from 400 yards for a driver down to 200 yards for a sand wedge) is to be estimated [F1].
2. If the ball reaches a height of 12 feet or more [H1] and its landing spot is anticipated to be within 20 per cent of F1, then G1 must leave a delay of one second per 50 yards distance from G1 to G2 before calling out.
3. During this gap, F1 is to be converted into decametres (F1 multiplied by 10.9), to produce F2.
4. At the end of the delay, ‘ForeTee’ followed by F2 must be called at full voice in the direction of G2.
If the ball travels at below the height of H1 then step 3 does not need to be followed.
Just another thing to add to your preparation prior to playing a shot.
