26 Hitting in Regulation

Fairways
++++++++

Hitting a fairway is exactly that, your ball comes to rest off the tee

Greens
++++++

Hitting a green in regulation means that your ball will be on the
putting surface in 1 shot on a par 3, 2 shots (or less) on a par 4 and
3 shots (or less) on a par 5.Just subtracting 2 putts from the par
gives you the "Regulation" number of strokes to reach the green.
