Reno, TX, May 12, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Jason R. Smith and Woodrow T. Fail, rules officials with over thirty-plus years of officiating between them, have completed their new book, “A Guide to Being a Golf Rules Official: What the Rules of Golf Don't Tell You”: an enlightening and informative key to understanding the full role of a golf referee.

“There are many books covering the rules of golf but very little written on how to be a golf referee (rules official),” say Smith and Fail. “Most people do not realize that almost all golf referees are volunteers. Sure many of them get lunch or breakfast covered while at a tournament. But very few actually get paid. The comradery and passion for the game of golf are what inspires most golf enthusiasts to begin an exploration of the rules.”

Published by Page Publishing, Jason R. Smith and Woodrow T. Fail’s thorough tale rectifies some of the misconceptions about being a golf rules official and demystifies the process of getting involved. Smith and Fail found that, disappointingly, so much knowledge surrounding rule officiating was learned through word-of-mouth only, such as how to become a golf referee, how to enforce rules, and how to help ensure the best possible game. Following the rules of golf and enforcing them are two completely different games, and the authors have mastered the art of the latter.

There is more that goes into rules officiating than the average golf enjoyer may realize. Rules officials strive to help players avoid penalties, act as a resource when players have questions, and aid in setting up the course itself. Jason R. Smith and Woodrow T. Fail hope to inspire the next class of golf rules officials providing insight into a different side of golf.

Readers who wish to experience this intriguing work can purchase “A Guide to Being a Golf Rules Official: What the Rules of Golf Don't Tell You” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
