handicap qualifying or not

[hovis]

i may be wrong here but i was under the impression that If it was pick and place on closely mown areas a comp could still be qualifying. however, if its pick and place through the green it could not!

any help please

This should be moved to the rules section.

FWIW both scenarios can still be qualifiying as far as I know. We play qualifiers throughout winter and they are all preferred lie/winter rule comps until around the time the clocks change.

I believe you are correct!

LR (drop as near as possible) is fine for Ball Plugged in Rough' though!

You can't have a qualifier if pick and place is through the green.'

I wasn't flavour of the month last year.
A weekend Stableford was run with P&P through the green...
Someone shot a course record and got cut to Scratch....
Until I pointed out that you can't run a qualifier with P&P through the green....

Cue deleted scores, much wailing and knashing of teeth....😂😂

Lift, Clean & Place is not OK Through the Green. However, Lift, Clean & REplace is (provided the Local Rule has actually been invoked).

Just place will do......

Not for a qualifying round. Bear in mind there are two different rules: preferred lies (lift, clean and place) which can only be on closely mown areas [Appendix I Part A 3b] and lift clean and replace which is permitted through the green [Appendix 1 Part A 3c]

This (confusion as illustrated by SammmeBee) is why it's rarely used - because everyone has become so used to '-normal preferred lies rules'.

Which is a shame as it's a good rule and only solution to bad mud conditions if you wish to retain Q comps and a modicum of fairness...

Sorry misunderstood, i thought it meant pick and place on closely mown areas.

I personally have never come across pick and replace through the green before but now I know!
