As an international commercial lawyer and professional organiser of golf tournaments Hadyn Rutter has combined his considerable and unique experience of interpreting rules and regulations with a practical knowledge of the rules and procedural problems encountered by a keen but average golfer well used to being out of bounds, in bunkers, water hazards, lateral water hazards and the like. The result is The Golf Rules Dictionary- written initially as a personal, easy reference manual for the author's own benefit because there were too many rules to remember and even as a lawyer he found difficulty in understanding some of the rules of golf! The idea for publication of the book came from the realisation that the majority of golfers had the same problem!
