Welcome to the Internet Home of the Nomads of
Mayfield Golfing Society
Our website provides an irreverent
view into the events, activities and
members of the MGS, but never intends cause insult.
Members and guests are welcome to browse the
site to review our competition history in the
Roll of Honour or preview
our forthcoming monthly golf meetings on some of the nicest courses in
the South East in
Golf Days.

RULES OF
THE SOCIETY
Injury
Always limp with the same leg for the whole round.
Advice
If your opponent hasn't played the course before, don't be a spoilsport
and ruin all the surprises.
Coaching
Never leave your opponent with the sole responsibility for thinking of
all the things that might go wrong with his shot.
Scoring
Every time a golfer makes a birdie, he must subsequently make two triple
bogeys to restore the fundamental equilibrium of the universe.
Slow play
If you're afraid a full shot might reach the green while the foursome
ahead
of you is
still putting out, you have two options: you can immediately shank
a lay-up, or you can wait until the green is clear and top a ball
halfway there.
Putting
A putt that stops close enough to the hole to inspire such comments as,
"You could blow it in" ... may be blown in. This rule does not apply if
the ball is more than three inches from the hole, because no one wants
to make a travesty of the game.
Membership is strictly by invitation, but anyone interested can
contact the MGS
to arrange a taster round as a guest of a member at one of our golf
days. We pride ourselves on not being a stuffy club but expect, and
promote the highest standards of personal conduct on the fine courses we
play.
'Rules regarding dress and etiquette must be adhered to at all times'.
"I'll always remember the day I broke ninety. I had a few beers in the
clubhouse and was so excited I forgot to play the back nine." -Bruce
Lansky

"Golf is twenty percent mechanics and technique. The other eighty
percent is philosophy, humour, tragedy, romance, melodrama,
companionship, camaraderie, cussedness, and conversation." -Grantland
