ALERT-United States Golf Association Rules Revision----

A proposed revision to the USGA rules of golf is being sought in South Florida
which will replace the traditional call of "FORE". Once a player has hit an
errant shot he will now be allowed to call "GORE" while the ball is still in
flight. He can then replace the ball in the same spot and hit it again. The
player can continue to do this until he is satisfied the ball is going where
he intended to hit it in the first place. This new revision will cause the
time of play to be extended until such time the player can claim the hole
and/or his desired score. This revision is causing some consternation to the
PGA but proponents say it is only fair. A recent test of this new rule was
recently played out in an exclusive club in Palm Beach County, Florida and
the first hole only took 7 days to complete.
