  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Canonical Precept
Precept, in its common acceptation, is opposed to counsel, inasmuch as the former imposes an obligation, while the latter is a persuasion.
law directly affects the territory of the legislator, and thence passes to the subjects dwelling in it; a precept directly affects the persons of the inferiors and is independent of locality.
The precept, under pain of nullity, must be in writing, state plainly what is to be done or avoided by the delinquent, and mention the specific punishment to be inflicted if the precept go unheeded.

 Precept branches out with new line of clubs - PGATOUR.COM   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Over the past year or so, Precept scored a highly publicized ace with its MC Lady ball which, because of its soft core, high trajectory and overall distance characteristics, became a big seller among male golfers of all skill levels despite the seeming stigma of its women's specific name.
Now, Precept is adding the Tour Premium CB irons to its roster, a forged cavity-back set with similar features as the Tour Premium, along with a degree of offset to the heads and longer heel-to-toe length to allow greater forgiveness for the mid-handicap player.
Further, Precept utilizes tungsten inserts in the trailing edges of the 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-irons to create a lower center of gravity to help achieve a higher trajectory.

Precept and Nike, however, assert the balls are different in manufacturing and, to degrees, in playability.
The Precept MC Lady is a two-piece ball with an extra soft, extra large Muscle-Fiber Core and a soft, shear-resistant surlyn cover.
Although Precept cited male players with slower swing speeds having gained distance off the tee, our mid-handicap players reported -- much like our advanced players -- that the MC Lady was not perceptibly longer, but was at least as long as other "male-oriented" golf balls.
