Question

How many golf clubs, in total, are allowed in your bag during play?

Answer 1

The maximum is 14.

Answer 2

14 or less

Answer 3

Fourteen clubs are the maximum allowed in one player's bag. Any number below 14 is fine, but more than 14 is not.

Also, those 14 clubs cannot be changed during the course of one round. You must finish with the 14 you started with. (There are some exceptions in the case of a club breaking.)

However, if you begin with fewer than 14, you may add clubs during a round as long as no delay is caused and as long as the club(s) added are not borrowed from another player.

The penalty for exceeding the 14-club rule in match play is a loss of hole for each hole played in violation of the rule, up to two holes lost.

In stroke play the penalty is two strokes for each hole played in violation of the rules, with a maximum of four strokes.

Answer 4

14, or less.

Answer 5

14 including putter

Answer 6

14 clubs

Answer 7

If you break one in normal use during a round, you can replace it with any other club, as long as you don't hold up play.

"Normal use" includes making a stroke, taking a practice swing, using it as a cane to steady yourself when walking up a hill, leaning on your club between shots.

If you break one by wrapping it around a tree after you miss a putt, or if you throw it in a pond, you do not get to replace it.

Answer 8

14 or less.

Answer 9

See how easy that question was? Everybody knew the answer.

Answer 10

14 and if you break one during the round you dont get to replace it

Answer 11

This question has been asked like a million times.  Get off your lazy butt and do a little Google.  Sheesssh

Answer 12

you aren't supposed to have more than 14. But if your just out golfing with your friends, i don't think that anyone would care if you had 15. Remember that your putter counts as a club and if a club breaks you are not allowed to replace it until after the round

Answer 13

14 tops, in any configuration.  Doesn't matter which ones, but only 14.  Also have to finish with the clubs you start with, can't add any if you break one.

Answer 14

14 at the most
