Knowing and following golf's rules of etiquette actually makes golf more enjoyable; and it's something all of us can do, regardless of skill level.

I'm not a good golfer, but at least I'm a good sport.

I have observed that too many golfers don't know how to play ready golf. Drop your playing partner at his ball and go to your ball, play your shot and then pick up your partner. You don't need to wait untill it is your turn if your in the left rough and another player is in the right rough but a few yards further from the green.
