Like many courses at the moment ours is suffering from the weather. As is normally the case at this time of year the greenstaff have moved to protect the greens and surrounds by roping off the surrounds and directing players around the protected areas.
This inevitably leads to some areas being badly churned up in the general area, especially when the ropes change direction. The ropes and stakes are defined as immovable objects so swing / stance relief is available if they interfere. However, does the local rule F4 which deals with extensive damage due to heavy rain and traffic have to be in place to get any relief from these damage areas?
