The United States Golf Association is pleased to present the official iPhone application for the 2010-2011 editions of “The Rules of Golf” and “Decisions on The Rules of Golf,” as well as “Rules of Amateur Status.”
The Rules of Golf app is for you if you are an avid golfer looking for instant access to the official Rules and Decisions so you can play the game by the Rules and resolve disputes quickly. With this application, you'll answer pressing golf questions in seconds, such as:

•Can you stand out of bounds when making a stroke?
•How do you deal with a ball that lands close to a dangerous situation, like a rattlesnake or a beehive?
If you still have questions on a particular situation, e-mail the USGA directly from the application to receive expert advice. Whether it’s about casual water, loose impediments or line of play, no question is out of bounds.
