You gotta’ be tough to golf in the U.K……

British Golf Rules in 1940---You have to hand it to the Brits when it comes to golf.And you thought you were a tough weather golfer!This notice posted in war-torn Britain in 1940 for golfers with stiff upper lips.You have to admit --- these guys really had guts!
German aircraft from Norway would fly on missions to northern England; because of the icy weather conditions, the barrels of their guns had a small dab of wax to protectthem. As they crossed the coast, they would clear their gunsby firing a few rounds at the golf courses. Golfers were urged to take cover.
