With our 3rd currently out of play we have a temporary hole in play, playing to our chipping green.
Today I found myself with a putt on this ‘green’ with one of the ‘chipping green’ holes bang on my line. This hole had a plastic ‘flag insert‘ in it that was flush with the green, but it was not a flat insert but one designed to hold a flag vertical. Could I have claimed relief from this as an artificial obstruction. I didn’t, and despite hoping to avoid it managed to hit it bang on and my ball was deflected way offline and short.
