Local Rules Out of Bounds (OOB) areas that are not marked with stakes or painted lines. Hole #1 The outside edge of the cart path to the right side of #1 fairway defines the OOB until it reaches the road. At the road, the #1-hole side edge of the road defines the OOB. A ball that finds its way across the road to #2 is OOB. Hole #2 The hole side edge of the road defines the OOB until the first white stake or painted line.

Leaves Through the Green During play of any hole, any ground with temporary accumulations of leaves in the general area or in a bunker is treated as ground under repair from which free relief is allowed under Rule 16.1. (Model Local Rule F-14)

Root Rule If a tree root is in your swing path, you get free “point of nearest relief”, plus one club length from that point, no closer to the hole. Exception: If your ball is within one club length of the tree no relief is granted

​​

Lift, Clean, and Place. (are in effect when posted) The model local rule allows a player whose ball lies in the general area cut to fairway height or less to take free relief by placing the original ball or another ball within 1 club length, and 6 inches in the rough, from the spot of the original ball that is not nearer to the hole. Before replacing your ball, mark your ball, feel free to clean off any mud. Once the ball is returned, it cannot be lifted again without a penalty stroke.
