January is a time for resolutions and I have a suggestion for your list. Improve your knowledge of the Rules of Golf. The major rules revision you've probably heard about doesn't go into effect until 2019. Until then we continue to operate under the current Rules. Whether you think you know the rules inside out or you feel you should know them better, winter is a great time to brush up on them. If you want to start with the basics and most common rules used in a round of golf then I suggest you visit the USGA Rules of Golf Experience. There you will find videos and quizzes to review. If you are well versed then I suggest you delve into the principles of golf. Truly understanding the principles will help with even the most difficult situation you encounter on the course. Want even more? Call me or send an e-mail and I'll share some of the materials and practice exams I've used to prepare for the PGA/USGA Rules Exams.
