No he did not show me the rule. It had never happened since I have been playing, so I took his word for it as I was not sure on the rule myslef. I know if it happens again now. Thanks
During a monthly medal on the weekend, one of my playing partners thinned his tee shot and it hit the ladies tee marker and shot back into thick rough. He said that he could tee off again without penalty. Was he correct?
